Not quite politically correct

in this day & age of protests

I remember enjoying the TV show

"Amos and Andy" that would never

fly today either

I recall that Amos was the cab

driver who did the setups for

the episodes but wasn't much

involved aside from explaining

It was George Kingfish Stevens

an attorney that was the main

character & his wife Saphire

They were friends of good

natured Andy that would get

caught up in the shenanigans

of the Kingfish

This Matty Roubert production was a 1920 short. As we know, titles can't be copyrighted, so another CIRCUS DAYS was done later as a feature, with Jackie Coogan in the role of Toby Tyler. This is the same Jackie Coogan whose parents robbed him in childhood of his millions, leaving him with nothing as he grew up. This led to the Coogan Law, a California decision, which commands child actor fees to be safeguarded from mismanagement, with the standard 10% going to the agent, appropriate taxes paid (when federal and state income tax came in), and only 10% allotted to parents or guardians for expenses.
