- The County Welfare Society is offering a prize for the largest family. Ezra claims twenty-three children. When he's asked to produce the whole family he realizes he really has thirty-three kids.
- The County Welfare Society to encourage larger families offer prizes of ten dollars to every man who is father of ten or more children and a grand prize of a thousand dollars to the highest. Peters is a little runt, but with twenty-three children to his string, he thinks he has a chance to win the thousand. He makes a run for the committee room, because he has less than an hour to spare. He finds the judges admiring a group of big fellows and when he puts in his claim they give him the laugh because he is so small. They say, "You'll have to show us; produce the twenty-three children." Then he dashes home, and back again with Mrs. Peters and the children. He arrives at the hall with only a minute to spare, and Peters is the lion of the occasion. He takes the thousand, but only for a minute, for Mrs. Peters quickly relieves him of all responsibility on that score. He has quite a problem on his hands when the round up shows a count of thirty-three instead of twenty-three. Mrs. Peters happily relieves the tension on that point also.—Moving Picture World synopsis
