Comedy.

Reviews: [The Moving Picture World, 7 March 1914, page ?] Ike and Cayuse Pete are rivals in love and the girl promises to go to the party with the one that gets her the prettiest dress. The comedy in this works up quite pleasingly in places. Ike dresses up as a goat and gets into considerable trouble. This is the first of the new Universal Ike series, which promises to be a good one.
