Hubby laughs at his better half, when she tells him if women voted much of the graft would be eliminated from city politics. Immediately, hubby wants to know what she knows about aldermanic committees, police and fire boards, taxes, etc. When the time comes for choosing a candidate for mayor, hubby is nominated by his party. All seems to be smooth sailing and victory is sure, until wifey is nominated on the opposition ticket, and then hubby gets cold feet. Election day comes, and you can see the admirers of each candidate working hard for votes. Hubby is popular, but wifey is pretty and stylish. When she smiles at a man, that's enough. With the women her gowns win more votes. It would not be right to tell who wins out. That would spoil the interest of the film. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
