Little Elbert Mountbatten Wins Battle in the House
A humorous domestic scene centers five year old Elbert Twitchell as he plays war with Miss Tooker and his mother Mrs Twitchell. He crashes a glass, proclaims a bazooka, and mimics bombs, while relatives compare his antics to a grander era. The exchange ends with a handshake and birthday gifts, amid light satire of wartime bravado.
