Foot-sore and weary at the end of their first day's adventure, they go to sleep in a barn. The next day, awakened by hunger, they stroll to a nearby farmhouse, and ask for breakfast. This household is graced by a pretty little daughter with whom the wandering lads are much impressed. One of them gives her his last nickel. She hikes to the country store and buys candy, and becomes quite "soft" on her new benefactor. This impresses the other lad so, that he becomes very jealous, and the chums have a falling out. The mother sends Frances, the little girl, to the store on an errand, and the boys accompany her. There she sees a doll, which she highly covets. Both the boys determine to secure it for her. They have not the money, but each, keeping his own counsel, starts out to earn the necessary quarter. With boyish ingenuity and with thrift, they succeed in securing the necessary amount, and both come back to the store for the purchase at the same time. While they have been hustling to get the five nickels together, a swell little city chap arrives on the scene who has been well supplied with pocket money. He buys the little girl the doll and starts gaily off with her. The chums have quite a tussle to get to the store first, and to their mortification, they find the doll gone. Looking down the road, they see their would-be sweetheart strolling away with the doll in her arm, and one arm of the youthful swell about her waist. Disgusted with feminine perfidy, the two little vagabonds shake hands, swear eternal friendship and "beat it" back to the big city. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
