Once a Mason Synopsis
Some days after her husband's initiation into a Masonic Lodge, his wife demands to know the secrets of the great fraternal organization. Henry tells her that he is not privileged to reveal these secrets, but Polly insists that he promised never to keep any secrets from her. Finally, he confides to her the secret word of his Lodge. And so he gives away the initiation rites to Polly - his riding of the mythical goat, the solemn initiation with its mystic signs, etc. He swears her to secrecy but she naturally tells her neighbor all about the Masons so that the entire town is laughing at his holy revelations. On his return from the lodge meeting, Henry tells her that he is permitted to remain in the organization on condition that she pretends that the secrets he had revealed to her were all a joke.
The Unconventional Maida Greenwood Synopsis
Jimmy fusses around with the unconventional Maida until his wife gets home, and then goes back to being a good and faithful husband while his wife smiles to herself at his small digressions from the straight and narrow path.
"Once a Mason" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Unconventional Maida Greenwood" offers its own unique cult appeal.
