An inept barber maintains his good-humored optimism in his small town shop despite having a hen-pecking harridan for a wife and a total lack of sartorial skill.
Cornelius O'Hair's small town barber shop helps him get away from his nagging harridan of a wife while providing him with a captive audience for his inflated tall stories about past exploits and neighborhood gossip. His ineptitude causes him to disfigure one customer with a razor and scald another while inadvertently locking a third in his steam room. He gets a chance to impress his pretty manicurist when a fleeing bank bandit comes to the shop looking for a sartorial makeover.
