————————————————————————————————————
Hurrah for Bachelorhood begins with a tiff between a married couple, ending in the wife putting on her hat and cloak and going home to her mother. The husband apparently is rather pleased than otherwise and prepares to thoroughly enjoy the unfamiliar freedom of a single existence, but he soon arrives at the conclusion that the wedded state has its advantages after all. As he is returning from a shopping expedition laden with a chicken and a large bundle of vegetables, he meets a lady friend and drops the chicken in his eagerness to greet her. An urchin picks up the lard and the man runs after him. Further trials befall him and when his wife, acting on the advice of her mother, once more comes home, he is quite ready to make it up.
