Old Story of Wealth and Poverty Reappears in Slum Talk
In a clipped dialogue, characters debate class lines as Jack and Floasie discuss life, using overcoats and ulsters as symbols. Floasie seeks home before dark while snappy banter touches on money, social stations, and the refrain of wealth versus poverty. A Paloma Grocery ad touts dollar values and King Bros. offers pastel paintings.
