MAKE WAY FOR TOMORROW.

May be rented only for educational purposes where no admission is charged. Weekly rental $3. A specially prepared excerpt from the Paramount production which considers the problem of an older person (the husband's mother in this case) in the home.

The elderly couple lose their home to foreclosure, as Barkley has been unable to find employment because of his age. They summon four of their five children to break the news and decide where they will live. The temporary solution is for the parents to split up and each live with a different child. The two burdened families soon come to find their parents' presence bothersome.
