either v^hen the Taxi-boys are on the road. Here again, we
see Billy Gilbert and Ben Blue filled with good intentions, but lacking the wherewithal to carry them out. When Diamond Joe and his female accomplice attempt to smuggle jewellery through the Customs, it is the two nit-wits who provide the way out. Having planted the jewels in Ben's pocket, the difficulty arises as to how to get them back. By the use of female charm, the "boys" are lured to a strange house where the "transfer" is to take place. Sliding panels, trap-doors, queer noises and strange "goings-on" provide plenty of laughs and many narrovy squeaks for our dumb friends.
SB/30584 Free for All. Billy Gilbert, proprietor of a new delicatessen store, finds his assistant, Ben Blue, more than a handful.

In desperation Billy asks Ben to paste up the notice announcing the opening of the new shop. Here again Ben connes unstuck, and so does the notice. Ben replaces this, but not in the same way as the proprietor intended it and when the local inhabitants see the sign "Everything Free" the delicatessen store is besieged by a plague of human locusts. As is usual, Ben emerges from the fray head in air, but his feet firmly planted in trouble.
