The central figures are a detective and a pick- pocket who are lured into joining the army by a pretty girl and un- aware of each other's identity be- come firm friends. Wallace Beery plays the role of the detective and Raymond Hatton that of the pick- pocket. Both are excellent and it is as much to their acting as the cleverness of the "gags" that the Mary picture owes its success.
