Charley’s Cuteness and Witty Exchanges in Quick Quips

Dialogue filled with light humor and feisty lines. Mrs Henpeck jokes about a centennial wedding while Charley proves to be astute at picking winners. A playful exchange unfolds with a drug clerk remarking on a costly headpiece and a shopkeeper retorting with a grand joke.
