Synopsis: [From a W. Butcher & Sons catalog of Williamson films] A genuinely comic Film. Depicts in seven how the dear boys came home for the holidays, and all the tricks and pranks they played. To satiate their bubbling high spirits the servants, the patient donkey, the clothes hung out to dry, the baby even, and the gentleman visitor, are all used. The climax is reached when they are caught red-handed by their father and left off for punishment. Even here they have their joke, for our picture shows how they took precaution to protect the part likely to be affected.
