Details:

A cheap burlesque show is coming to the little village, and out of pure mischief the village billposter has posted one of the “queens” on the billboard next to the church. While the children are delighted with its beauty, the older members of the congregation are thrown into a panic, especially when the feminine half of the congregation discovers that the men folks seem to require considerable study of the poster before making their decision as to its demerits. One of the small bills of the play, depicting a typical burlesque girl, falls into the hands of a group of children the next morning. Through the desire of each one to get possession of it, they get into a squabble just outside the gate of a spinster of the town. She takes the picture away, after a lecture to the children on their depravity, and out of disappointment and anger they plan a terrible revenge. This same spinster is beloved by a deacon of the church, and the children’s revenge turns out so successfully that the love affair is broken off. Just what the children accomplish with a pair of stockings they have stolen from the old maid’s clothes line and stuffed into terrible shapelessness under the lee of her own fence, can better be told by the picture than in words. Enough to say that it provides a scene which, for uniqueness and extravagant humor, it would be difficult to surpass.
