West of the Water Bucket Synopsis
Jack O'Day and his orphans are on a farm in a small town. He takes them to a visiting circus and there engages in a ring encounter with a fakir who holds himself up as the real champ. Jack makes this battle a real comedy, taking off his shoes and wearing his brown derby all through the fight until the last, when he finds it necessary to wade in. It gets in the papers that Jack is defeated and his manager turns up just in time to find the facts and disclose his real identity, to the disappointment and horror of villagers.
No Mother to Guide Him Synopsis
A timid man's domineering wife keeps catching him at what seem in be compromising situations with pretty young women, and she won't believe they're as innocent as he claims they are.
"West of the Water Bucket" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "No Mother to Guide Him" offers its own unique cult appeal.
