Flossie Wade and Fred Brown organize a large charity picnic to aid underprivileged local children. Fred raises funds by hiring picnic wagons, enlisting a band, and securing donations from family and neighbors, while Flossie coordinates the guest list and logistics for a grove outing near the lake.
In a rural detour, Miss O'Hara and Hetty Bates ride atop a hay load with a group of boys. A tree section loosens the top and the hay slides off into a ditch, scattering four youths and sending horses scrambling as they cling to safety. Authorities warned about road dangers and urged careful travel.
Hetty and Margaret fall from a moving hay load as horses drift away. The fall causes loud screams then relief as no one is hurt. A bystander stops the team and the boys confess, fearing their friends will never forgive the mishap. Margaret and Hetty laugh over the muddy scrape.
Flossie Wade hosts a heartwarming outing for six elderly and needy residents, aided by Fred and a band of volunteers. The event features wagons, fireworks, and a celebratory organ grinder, boosting spirits and prompting hopes of repeating the act of kindness.
