None

Summary:

This cartoon takes place in the 1890’s. The first half is a gala picnic, while the second half is another “boy rescues girl from villain” plot.

That’s Not All, Folks:

This was the last of two cartoons directed by musical director Bernard Brown.

This cartoon has the villain giving the “That’s all folks!” sendoff.

What I Like About This One:

The chorus of the title song with the barbershop quartet and “Lillian Bussle” was quite catchy.

The fighters on a “Kilrain and Sullivan” picture doing a dance and then knocking each other out.

A guy eating his lunch on top of a large woman’s hat.

The gags in the “Fancy Diving Contest” scene (with the same chorus from the same cartoon being heard in the scene).

The twist ending.
