He is industriously engaged in his favorite occupation of crap shooting and hoping for big winnings. He fares badly in the game and goes home. His mind still dwelling on his imaginary winnings, he goes to sleep and dreams. He finds money on the street, meets a "swell" girl, visits the swellest cafés and throws money around promiscuously and is the ideal of his class. But finally the crash comes. He awakens and comes back to the actual things. He realizes that all his fun was only in his imagination and is one disappointed coon. He wanders out from his hovel, passes the old crap game and hoping to realize something on his dream, he makes a "grab" at the "stakes." He is successful only for a while. The "bunch" start after him and after a lively chase, catch him and give him a ducking in a nearby water trough. Written by
