Tom & Jerry are one of my favorite characters from Hanna/Barbera along with Penelope Pitstop and Scooby Doo.

This short is a fairly good Tom & Jerry short, it has a few good gags like Jerry scattering ash from the ash tray in a way like a marching band drum and in the end Tom, in blackface, does his Stepin Fetchit routine; although cartoons from the 1930s to the 1950s contain gags that included stuff that appear to have racial or ethnic prejudice (which were a common place in American society at that time). And one last thing : I don't get the old horse gag; I mean what's it goin' do? stink up the whole house? or crap everywhere?
