A new year begins, with Lum and Abner gathered with some of their friends to discuss the new year. Ulysses S Quincy is on hand to help identify photos in an album., as the gents wait for dinner. There is nothing better than a day for rest, then a holiday. Abner thinks it’s even better then resting on Sunday.
The gents can’t understand why the women folk all grumble about holidays. could it be the extra work they do? Lum has to say he doesn’t know about that, since he’s a bachelor. Abner at least notices that his wife seems to have been chained to the stove since 5 o’clock this morning. The only time she leaves it, is to go out and shop more firewood
Is it almost time for dinner? Abner notices some of the womenfolk coming outside to round up the children. After all those hours of hard labor in the kitchen, abner makes a last minute decision.. He needs to run off to get a good deal on wagon wheels before it’s too late.
