    Out and away,
    the most popular fellows at old P. U.
  • 1:22 - 1:24
    are the three Dover boys.
  • 1:24 - 1:26
    Tom, the fun-loving member of the trio.
  • 1:26 - 1:30
    Dick, a serious lad of 18 summers,
    plus a winter in Florida,
  • 1:30 - 1:34
    as related in
    The Dover boys in the Everglades.

    And Larry, the youngest

    A gay outing at the park
    has been planned by the merry trio
  • 1:43 - 1:48
    and they are off to fetch their fiancée,
    Dainty Dora Standpipe
  • 1:48 - 1:52
    at Miss Cheddars' female academy,
    close by.
  • 1:54 - 1:56
    With their usual punctuality,
  • 1:56 - 2:00
    the boys arrive
    at the appointed hour of 3:00.
  • 2:01 - 2:04
    Yoohoo! Yoohoo! Yoohoo!
  • 2:12 - 2:15
    And are soon on their rollicking way.
  • 2:16 - 2:19
    Forced to pass a certain public house,
  • 2:19 - 2:23
    a tavern of unsavory repute,
  • 2:23 - 2:26
    our young friends
    meet the distressing situation
  • 2:26 - 2:31
    with their usual
    uncompromising, moral fortitude.
  • 2:38 - 2:42
    Little do they know that even now,
    within this very tavern,
  • 2:42 - 2:46
    Dan Backslide,
    the former sneak of Roquefort Hall,
  • 2:46 - 2:48
    coward, bully, cad, and thief,
  • 2:48 - 2:53
    and arch enemy of the Dover boys,
    squanders his misspent life.
  • 2:56 - 3:01
    Hark, the Dover boys. Drat them.
  • 3:01 - 3:02
    Double drat them.
  • 3:02 - 3:06
    They are escorting Dora Standpipe.
  • 3:06 - 3:09
    Dear, rich, Dora Standpipe!
  • 3:09 - 3:11
    How I love her...
  • 3:11 - 3:15
    father's money.
  • 3:17 - 3:19
    Confound those Dover boys!
  • 3:19 - 3:21
    Oh, how I hate them!
  • 3:21 - 3:26
    I hate Tom! I hate Dick! And I hate Larry!
  • 3:26 - 3:31
    They drive me to drink!

    Confound them. [hiccups]
  • 3:42 - 3:49
    Con... found them!
  • 3:49 - 3:53
    But let us draw the curtain
    on this sordid scene,
  • 3:53 - 3:55
    and turn to more pleasant surroundings,
  • 3:55 - 3:59
    where we find our young friends
    engaged in a spirited game
  • 3:59 - 4:01
    of hide-go-and-seek.
