Horlicks: A word to travelling friends. Don’t forget to take Horlicks along to provide fast, light, sustaining nourishment on your travels and vacation.

Lum has solved his problem of how to keep up work on both the store, and his duties with the silver mine. Today Abner suggests that Lum just sell the mine and get their money that has been invested back. However, Lum is looking forward to the ongoing profit of a silver mine, and the things he might manufacture out of silver.

The new business will be a boom to the town, and Abner begins to see the benefits. Abner goes to share an idea, but Lum’s figure of speech gets him temporarily side tracked.

Lum begins to look for more investors for the silver mine, namely Mr Worthington, the man who offered to buy the mine previously. A knock comes at the door, and it’s Cedric. He has word about the new trailer that his dad is building for Lum. While he tries to remember, Dick Huttleston visits. He has news about the mysterious Mr Worthington, and tells what he has learned about him.

The man is a known con man among the police. I guess that shoots down any investments, or sell outs.
