After two sisters, Babe and Casey Hogan, who are employed in the sheet music section of a department store where they also sing and dance, are fired, they take smalltime vaudeville jobs. Babe falls in love with Jimmy Dean, their piano player, and the sisters split up when Babe and Jimmy get married. Ultimately, however, the two girls are reunited and resume their musical act.
