That is. according to wifie, who raves over his soul-stirring tunes. When Schultz is offered the job to lead the orchestra at the Gaiety theater, wifie is overcome with proud joy, and urges him to accept. So he does. Leading an orchestra is a new experience to Schultz. The bright lights and pretty chorus girls affect his head. The leading chorus lady, in particular, attracts him. Now, it happens that this leading chorus lady, and the trombone player, are sweethearts. The latter soon resents Schultz's butting into his love affairs. When the show starts and Schultz flirts openly with his girl, the trombone player is mightily upset. He can hardly play his instrument. The manager is forced to quell the budding riot. For a while the show moves along smoothly. Schultz's leadership is fine until he forgets all about conventions and climbs up on the stage to admonish the actress whose playing he dislikes. The manager naturally raves. But he is powerless. Finally Schultz's wife, hungering to witness her noble husband working at his grand job, comes to the show. From her seat in the orchestra row she witnesses with horror her hubby's action with the leading chorus lady. The peeved trombone player recognizes wifie with joy as she dashes wildly over the musicians and stage to reach her erring hubby. Things are then soon settled to the entire satisfaction of both the trombone player and the manager and poor Schultz gets his. Written by
