“Where Are Your Husbands?” — Reelcraft

Obviously, this two reeler, one of a set known as Royal comedies and starring Billy B. Van, was made before the end of the war, for it is a sort of burlesque on the conflict. A fight of American women to protect their talcum powder forms the backbone of the piece, the effeminate habits cultivated by the men during the absence of their wives being depicted through- out most of the footage. As many people will expect, it turns out to be a dream at the finish, with the principal gleeful over the fact that what has passed was merely a nightmare. Generally an average comedy which is not timely now.
