Jerry Madden is a small boy in a busted straw hat and overalls. He and his dog Pal fall in with a small girl, and their wanderings lead them to a circus menagerie on board a liner bound for Europe.
Most of the gags involve the animals, including a couple of young lion cubs and elephants who get loose on the ship. It's an innocuous sort of comedy in which one major gag is having the toddlers flirt like adults. Young Madden went on to participate in a dozen shorts and movies over the following four years. Today he is forgotten, and rightly so.
