starring Adolphe Menjou, and OPP
ening at the Capitol Theatre to-

Alternate spells of romance and
hot argument between the two prin-
cipals make for the hilarious stu
gtions of the story, especially when
on the honeymoon, the bride meets
and assumes charge of handsome
young baritone who she decides
must have a career under her spon-
sorship.
The singer proves to be thorn
in the bridegroom's side, and his
presence finally breaks up the new
established home. Trying to
straighten matters out, the son in
vites the singer to stay at his house
instead-only to have his own do
mestic life wrecked in turn. How
the two husbands finally are recon-
ciled with their respective spouses
makes for the hectic climax of this
laughter packed picture.
