Traveling organists have no difficulty in getting money; and as Mutt always was musically inclined, he undoubtedly could grind out the same quality and the same quantity of music that energetic Italian mountaineers regale us with. But what is organ music without a monkey? How to get a monkey, that's the question. Mutt's think-box gets in motion. It takes more than a little persuasion on his part to get little Jeff to impersonate the much-needed monkey. Organist Mutt and collector-monk Jeff soon begin making noise and incidentally some money. Business, however, does not meet with Mutt's most sanguine expectations, and, of course, he takes it out of the monkey. The dog-catchers, a tender-hearted bunch, free Jeff from Mutt's brutal clutches and take him away with a motley assortment of stray dogs. What does Mutt do without his monkey? What does Jeff do in the dog den? What do the dog-catchers do? They cut up such a lot of uproariously funny monkeyshines as to keep both young and old doing the continuous laughing performance till the climax is reached.
