Ned has a meal ticket with one twenty-five cent meal left on it. His valet puts him to bed on the park green and covers him with newspapers. The man whose job it is to keep the park clean comes along with his pointed stick tries to pick up Ned. The result is that the last meal left on the ticket is gone. In order to get a meal they earn a dollar but soon lose it and are unable to get it back. At another opportunity they earn another dollar but it gets away also. The wind has caught and carried it through the streets. The two tramps chase after it and follow it right into the window of a gambling house. It lands on the table and Ned claims it as his. It wins a pile of money and when the boss won't let Ned get out, his valet calls a cop and suggests a raid. Ned gets away with his pile and no sooner gets outside than the wind carries it all away. One dollar finally comes back to them and visions of a meal are once more in sight. Written by Universal Weekly, December 22, 1923 See less
