Having advised Stan (Laurel) to take charge and tell his wife (Dorothy Christy, not seen here) he’ll be attending the lodge convention, Oliver (Hardy) fails to demonstrate his principles with his own wife (Mae Busch), in their Hal Roach comedy Sons Of The Desert, 1933.

Hoping to prevent their wives (Mae Busch, Dorothy Christy) from finding out they went to the lodge convention, and weren’t on the liner that sank off Hawaii, Stan (Laurel) and Oliver (Hardy) avoid being discovered in the attic, but get into more trouble, in Sons Of The Desert, 1933.

Joining the opening scene, Los Angelinos Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy arrive at the meeting of their lodge and over-commit, in the fourth of their feature-length comedies, Sons Of The Desert, 1933, from Hal Roach studios, distributed by MGM.
