Cater, Power Conway, Ted Ross and Charles Pope.
 The story of "A Pair of Queens has all the spice and paprika that goes to make the real live American comedy, and it is filled to the brim with mirth- provoking situations. Briefly, the plot tells the story of an elderly married man whose wife is away on a visit and who, with a younger companion, visits a cafe for an evening Of entertainment. There they meet two very beautiful young women. Complications that follow are not at all of the sort that are usually the result of such farcical situations, but carry a corking good story to a legitimate and unexpected climax.
