The Pharmacist (1933)

A good W.C. Fields comedy short. In this he plays a pharmacist who has to contend with customers who play checkers instead of buying something, a daughter who eats a canary bird (Marjorie Kane) and another daughter (Lorena Carr) who is hanging out with someone called Cuthbert (Grady Sutton) a name he really dislikes for some reason.

Fields main method of coping with this is mixing regular martinis. It is all pretty funny especially the customer who rants about stamps.
