• • Movietime is 6 o'clock in the evening and this Mae West film is free.
• • In Missouri, the Joplin Public Library is on Main Street between 3rd & 4th Streets.
• • Here's the plot of "My Little Chickadee" - - Suspected of illicit relations with the Masked Bandit, Flower Belle Lee [Mae West] is run out of Little Bend. On the train she meets con man Cuthbert J. Twillie [W.C. Fields] and pretends to marry him for "respectability." Arriving in Greasewood City with his unkissed bride, Cuthbert J. Twillie is named sheriff by the town boss Jeff Badger, who has an ulterior motive. Both stars display their comic capital onscreen.
• • As the film ends, Cuthbert J. Twillie says to Flower Belle, "Why don't you come up and see me sometime?" It is, of course, a sly reference to Mae West's famous line in "She Done Him Wrong" [1933].
