Don Comedy One Act An Accident Policy Written and Produced by EDWIN McKIM Released Tuesday, November 16th IHN BARROW works hard and every Satur- day brings home his pay envelope undisturbed, because he has a “ de- manding ” wife. He soon tires of being hen- pecked and discovering the resting place of the family bank-roll he annexes it determined to take at leaSt one whirl at real life. At the corner “thirSt emporium,” John falls for the persuasive chatter of an accident in- surance agent and parts with moSt of the family fortune for premium on an accident policy. The shock of expense aided by the “ joy water ” renders John a bit unseaworthy and his daughter’s sweetheart happening by atfts as the good Samaritan and leads him homeward. Friend wife explores and discovers the accident policy. She commands and demands that John meet with an accident that the bankroll may be returned.
