The Doctor and the Doctor's Wife
Dr. Adams hires two American Indians to cut some logs that broke free from a shipment bobbing downstream toward a large sawmill company. They are glad to make some extra money and are in a good mood, good-naturedly teasing the doctor about stealing the logs.
The doctor becomes furious and fires the men, then goes upstairs, where his wife lectures him with platitudes. Disgusted with his wife and himself, the doctor goes outside and accepts his young son's invitation to go where they can see some black squirrels.
