With the outbreak of World War II, two adolescent boys find
themselves in jobs beyond their capabilities: Ray Reilly as the
apprentice embalmer at Dugan and Son and Bill Dugan in trying to
convince his parents that there is a role for him in the family
business. Ray soon gains knowledge and skills to prepare him for
life: hearse driving, embalming, roof patching, the importance of
comic books in an adolescent girl's life, the hidden needs of adult
female pianists, and avoiding death when placed between a pack of
crazed dogs and a squinty-eyed old sheriff with a big game rifle.
At the war's end, both young men have their education's enriched by
the local returning veterans.
