The oat-meal tastes burnt to Daddy and he pushes it away from him. Sonny feeds his to Shep, the dog, and gets a severe scolding. All of which gets Daddy into such a temper, that when Sonny again feeds the dog and smashes a dish, his father tells him if it happens again he will have to give Shep away. Sonny decides that Daddy Jim doesn't love him and Shep anymore and that they will run away and find the North Pole mentioned in the newspaper that morning, about which Daddy had told him. Bundling up well, taking his sled, a small flag, hammer and nails. Sonny sallies forth with his dog, Shep, wading through the deep snow. He asks his way of several people he meets, but they all laugh. He comes to a railroad crossing, just below which ties have been thrown across the track by some track laborers, who plan to wreck the express in revenge for being discharged by their foreman. Sonny is very tired now and begins to cry. Suddenly he sees a pole with a sign on it reading. "Northold, Five Miles." Thinking he has found the North Pole, he tacks the flag on it so that it flutters toward the track. Sonny is missed and his mother calls up his father, who is in an adjoining town. He barely catches the express, which is soon speeding on toward the barrier of destruction. The engineer sees the flag and stops the train. The train crew go forward to investigate and find the ties on the track and Sonny fast asleep in the snow. Some of the passengers have come up, among them Daddy Jim, who says, "Thank God," and Sonny sleepily says, "I found the North Pole, Daddy." He is brought to his anxious mother and all feel very proud of him. Nothing is too good for him and Shep. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
