Censorship
Before You Can't Fool Your Wife could be exhibited in Kansas, the Kansas Board of Review required the elimination of several scenes and intertitles. The intertitles removed said "Here's to prohibition, may we never meet" and "What is there to prevent me from putting this man to sleep, etc." The scenes removed were of Ardrita smoking, a black child drinking out of used glasses, and McBride being punched.[6]
