Seeking a place to hide, they enter a paperhanger's store. The telephone rings. Ham answers it and receives a request from Mrs. Smith that he come over and paper her dining room. Donning overalls, Ham and Bud grab paper, ladders, paste buckets and brushes and obey the call to duty. Arriving at the Smith cottage, the adventurers get right down to business. Before long, the dining room is a first-class imitation of a Belgian battlefield. Ham and Bud get into a dispute over their respective paperhanging abilities. Angered, Bud determines to paper a room all by himself. In the meantime, Mrs. Smith, discovering the chaotic condition of her rooms, frantically phones her husband to come home. The convicts' escape is discovered and guards take up the search for them. Smith gets home. The man is about knee-high to a grasshopper. Seizing him, Ham and Bud paint his clothes into a resemblance of prison garb and turn him loose. Poor Smith is captured by the guards, but is freed when he tells his story. Discovering the guards approaching. Ham and Bud flee from the house. By this time, they have grown lonesome for their prison home. Back to the paperhanging shop they go, where they don their striped suits. Cautiously returning to jail, they climb the wall and sit down in front of the building, where they are found by the weary guards who presently return. Springing forward, Ham and Bud welcome their jailers and ask to be locked up. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
