Bob Thompson is a poultry fan, and with the assistance of his family and friends, proceeds to build a chicken house. They all skirmish for lumber, and, having secured the plans from a poultry book, succeed fairly well in constructing the building. John Smiley who is always doubtful of the success of Bob's engineering schemes, and Thompson being on the inside of the coop, John calls for Bob to come out and take a look at the house. The master builder weighs three hundred pounds and finds that the windows and door are all too small to permit him to make an exit. There is only one thing to do, and that is to chop his way out. This he does, with much show of temper. That night the party goes to Bob's house and tells Vivian, Bob's daughter to tell her father that his friends have come to congratulate him. Bob sends word out that he wants nothing more to do with them, and the bunch retire, disappointed, but realizing that there is nothing doing.
