In the meantime a telegram arrives from the neighborhood town asking Andy to come and speak. Min finds Andy in the lake and his clothes gone. He rushes home in Min's petticoat and gets dressed. They race with the train to the crossing, but the train hits them and they find themselves on the fender. They arrive at the station and the whole town is asleep. Andy awakes the people in the hotel and is greeted with a great ovation. The people ask him to make a speech, but he would rather get dressed first and goes upstairs. Little Chester, while playing croquet, hits the ball and breaks open a hornet's nest right over Andy's pants, and the hornets hide themselves in them. Andy slips on his pants while reading over his speech and does not feel the hornets until he has his suspenders over his shoulders. He then starts to run wild all over. He runs into a smokeroom and smokes them out. Andy is asked to deliver his speech and he asks for a stump. Meanwhile, the city is dynamiting all stumps and the one Andy starts to speak on is already charged. The last line of his speech is that his position will take him to dizzy heights and he is blown sky-high and lands on a telephone pole. Written by Universal Weekly, November 8, 1924 See less
