Ain't Nature Grand Synopsis
Eddie is the favorite son while George is only the hired hand on the farm. But that does not prevent them from staging an endurance contest at eating cakes for breakfast. Eddie finally gives up in despair, and goes outside to loaf. George has other ideas on the subject and finally puts him to work. Loafing again, Eddie is buried beneath a pile of hay by George. Of course, George does not know this and is startled by the moving hay. A goat gets tangled up in the hay and returns the compliment when George jabs it with a pitchfork. Eddie is blamed and George starts chasing the youngster. The chase leads to a colored woman hanging clothes in the yard. She is pushed into the tub. Then the two start throwing the freshly washed clothes at each other. When they have ruined the day's washing, the colored woman promptly spanks Eddie.
An Amateur Devil Synopsis
Carver Endicott, a young sophisticate, is rejected by his fiancée for being too foppish and dull. When she feigns an interest in his father, Carver attempts to disgrace his family name by working as a farmhand and later as a busboy in a hotel. However, the newspapers only praise him for his self-sacrificing principles; and finding that he cannot bring shame to the family through menial labor, he takes up with a notorious actress. But when this maneuver also fails, he returns to his former fiancée, who has no further complaint about his being an inexperienced dullard.
"Ain't Nature Grand" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "An Amateur Devil" offers its own unique cult appeal.
