  • Plot: Finding that feuds between the occupants of a two-family house are not at all conducive to peace and happiness. Edward Jarr and his family of wife and two children blame it all on Brooklyn, where they live. Consequently when Jarr gets a raise in salary, they decide to get away from the horrors of internal warfare and move to Harlem. The moving van is accordingly sent for and amid much weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth, the Jarr Family tear themselves away from the beloved city of rubber plants, and baby carriages. All goes beautifully until their arrival in Harlem, then the best parlor lamp gets smashed and other unfortunate accidents attendant upon moving, happen to them. After getting settled, the Jarrs give a house-warming to which Mr. and Mrs. Raugle, Jack Silver and the sprightly Clara Mudridge are invited. Jarr's boss, Jabez Smith, also attends. Gertrude, the servant, puts some cold bottles and a bird out the window and then the fun starts. Two mischievous fellows living in the apartment above lasso the refreshments and haul them up to their own rooms. Inside, Old Jabez becomes infatuated with Clara Mudridge, to Jack's intense jealousy. They start the phonograph and commence dancing. The people below become decidedly peeved when the chandeliers begin to sway and plastering falls in clouds, so after a little angry conversation by means of the steam radiator pipe, the Jarrs' house-warming party breaks up as the police break in. The local newspapers announce that the house-warming proved a most recherche affair and at the same time publish the engagement of old man Smith and Clara Mudridge. Jack Silver openly accuses Jarr and his whole family of getting up the party in order to take his sweetheart (Clara Mudridge) away from him and make a "bird in a gilded cage of her." Since the Jarr Family discovered Harlem and settled in its midst, a new interest has been added to it.
