the older daughter. the Careys leave the tenement in which they are living and take over an old, tumble-down house in the country. They remodel it as a teachers' boarding house, but unforeseen complications arise just as they complete the task. The climax is charged with hilarity as the family adopts a unique method of dis possessing ́an unpleasant couple who claim their house.

Anne Shirley and Ruby Keeler, as the daughters, are cast roman- tically opposite Frank Albertson and James Ellison, respectively. Fay Bainter portrays the highly sympathetic mother.
