Ordinary Cartoon Stuff
"Betty is making piecrust (I think) and an annoying housefly interrupts her work. It also tortures her little dog. The entire cartoon is an effort to kill the fly, mostly by throwing dough at it. The fly is persistent as houseflies usually are. There is nothing very imaginative about this one. It seems to go on and on...."
💡 Did You Know?
The careful attention to detail in the background renderings of Betty's home shows a mid-1930s modern kitchen, right down to the large sink with separate taps for hot and cold water.
