The kids greet their father with well-aimed throws of the pies baked for the occasion, and they are rewarded with the usual spanking. A desire for revenge leads them to the family roof, where with a hose they proceed to wet down the immediate surroundings below. The Captain asserts the deluge is caused by the snow melting on the roof and proposes to climb up and clear it off. Climbing a ladder he takes a tumble and a general smash-up follows. To repair matters the wallpaper must be renewed and, as the paper hangers are on a strike, the Captain Starts to do the work himself. He finishes by falling into a bucket of paste. Being the tobogganing season the happy family go for a ride on the slide, but Hans and Fritz, as usual, prepare for further fun by tampering with the sled. The ride starts with the whole party aboard and winds up in a riot of fun caused by the wrecking planned by the famous twins. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
