Mutt and Jeff Break Into Society (1911)
Mutt and Jeff decide to go to work. Automobile driving seems to appeal to their roving dispositions. Mutt and Jeff accordingly take automobile lessons. The former successfully passes the examination and poor Jeff is told to "try again." The lanky chauffeur answers an advertisement and makes a decided hit with Banker Russell and his family. Mutt appears to have settled the ticklish problem of making a living by becoming chauffeur for Mr. Russell. With little Jeff, things are quite different. He roams about the streets in an aimless fashion. Helen Russell, who owns autos of every description, is a good pedestrian. She takes a ramble in the park and for a moment rests upon a bench. When she leaves, she forgets her well-filled purse. Jeff, still wandering, finds it. The young lady's visiting card leads Jeff to her palatial home, where he is received with joy. Helen takes him for a spin in her auto, with Mutt doing the "wheeling." Fifty miles from the city limits, the snorting thing stops and Mutt makes a tour of investigation. When under the auto, Jeff decides to take the wheel in his own hands. He does and the "Yellow Dash" zig-zags away, leaving Mutt behind. Helen and Jeff reach home safe and happy. Mutt manages to reach a pole bearing the legend, "Ten miles to the city limits." and collapses.
