Summary
Pathe Intertitles - "Where the carefree gypsies dance the sunny hours away - Their ballroom - the nearest road."
"The ladies’ orchestra believes in the maximum of noise at the minimum of expense -"
"And close by, are the workers - washing hard to another kind of magic - the river."
"The workers, of course, are women. Father just sits round the corner and smokes, and watches the clothes don’t run away -".
