A Day at the San Diego Fair

Full of interest

A very pleasing eccentric comedy enacted by Max Asher, Gale Henry, Wm. Franey and others at the Southern California exposition grounds. The photography is fine and the incidents are full of interest. - The Moving Picture World, May 22, 1915

The Schultz family arrives at the fair grounds. The two kids scheme a way of gaining entrance without paying. It works grandly and all enter. The beautiful panorama bewilders them, which results in the party running afoul of the little electric observation chairs. These chairs have been dubbed "chicken scoops." They make a decided hit with Schultz. He decides to save shoe leather, and hires one. But the pesky thing becomes unmanageable and tears through the grounds with all hanging on to it for dear life. Little Heinie falls off and before joining them again, has an experience with the Indians. Heinie finds the folks surrounded by hungry pigeons. He joins the family in feeding them. The tame birds eat from their hands and even from their mouths. In an ice cream parlor, Pa Schultz is attracted by a flirty little miss who invites him for a stroll through the "isthmus." Of course Pa goes. But Ma gets wind of his action later and dashes in search of him, leaving the kids to themselves. The kids take advantage and have great fun among the many concessions. Schultz is having a high old time with the flirty miss when Wifey finally locates him. He escapes, however, running away to avoid her infuriated blows. His attempt to hide among the concessions only brings more disaster to him. At last, becoming desperate, he sees a balloon preparing to go up and makes a wild run for it. The kids witness Ma's distress and join her in rounding up their side-stepping Pa. Schultz reaches the balloon in the nick of time. He clutches the basket and is just soaring upward when the folks arrive. Chagrined and horrified, they watch the balloon until it disappears in the clouds with Pa Schultz waving back in derision.
