This Hal Roach comedy short I found on the "American Slapstick" DVD collection of rare silent comedies starts bizarre and has an anything goes-quality one rarely sees in Mr. Roach's output. It stars Snub Pollard who is initially introduced as a baby left on a doorstep before we see him fully grown about 20 or so years later still in that basket! From there, he gets bumped car to car crossing the street prior to getting literally thrown through a window as an auction is taking place! Also appearing is James Finlayson as a man who's items accidentally get sold.

Stan Laurel is picked up at the train depot and brought back by the husband to the family home where the wife is having a suffragette meeting. None too pleased they cause mayhem and then the neighbours are brought into it as Stan cleans up the backyard by throwing all the rubbish into their award winning garden.

История о молодом человеке, который решил покушать на халяву. Забавная коротенькая комедия, одна из первых, где Стэн начал сниматься у Хэла Роуча. В ней мы видим Стэна Лорела не таким, каким привыкли его видеть по более поздним картинам. Фильм интересен также тем, что в нем играет Кларин Сеймур, молодая начинающая звезда тех лет, снимавшаяся у великого Д.У. Гриффита. К сожалению, не пройдет и двух лет, и она скоропостижно уйдет из жизни. Тут мы можем в некоторой степени прикоснуться к ее таланту, так до конца и не раскрывшемуся.
