Here we have a little silent comedy about a country boy trying to win back the heart of his sweetheart by catching some bootleggers. It stars George K. Arthur as Peter Good, a simple farm boy on a mission that is obviously beyond his knowledge. His girl Amy, played by silent starlet Gertrude Olmstead, seems only interested in the new city boy in town. Rounding out the cast is a young woman out to help round up the bootleggers. She is played by a very young Joan Crawford.

Of course being a relatively short film, it clocks in at just over an hour, the plot isn't all that heavy. Still, while it may be short on plot, it's not short on laughs. If you love silent comedies, this is one you don't want to miss.
