Ernest Truex dislikes babies, but likes dogs. His boss agrees, but his wife doesn't. Reasoning that he's never been exposed to a baby, she borrows her cleaning lady's infant and has Truex take care of it.
Truex is one of those performers whose presence puts a smile on my face, and so I enjoyed this little comedy which has him trying to stand on his head. Other people fall right into the spirit of silliness in this short directed by veteran specialist William Watson.
