George Ovey is riding the rods. He changes into his clean suit and promptly gets caught up with two cops (who chase him) and a pair of dice. That done, hewalks to a boarding house and makes up to cook Arby Arly.
It's one of those two-reel comedies made which stick two one-reelers together. Chaplin did it a lot, and his features often seemed like a series of skits held together by it all happening to the tramp. Ovey is small, light on his feet and there are one or two gags that are funny.
This is the last of more than one hundred comedy shorts that Milton Fahrny had directed Ovey in since 1915. It is also the last movie Fahrey was known to have directed. He would act on half a dozen movies over the next half dozen years, then die in Australia in 1941.
As for Ovey, his starring career was just about over. He would continue in the movies, albeit more and more frequently with uncredited bits, into the 1940s. He would die in 1951, eighty years old.
