The Cabin Kids wake to find the circus has set up next to their home. They want to attend, but have no money. So they sneak in and are promptly caught. Toto the Clown tells them that if they sing a couple of songs for the clowns, the clowns will perform for them.

Very little is known about the Cabin Kids. They were five siblings whose aunt put them into show business: were Helen "Precious" Hall (1921-71), James "Darling" Hall (1923-69), Winifred "Sugar" Hall (1926-70), Frederick "Honey" Hall (1928-65), and a foster sister, Ruth "Sweetie" Hall (1922-92). They appeared in about a dozen and a half shorts and features, including some background appearances in Our Gang shorts. Here they sing novelty songs.

That old standby which has children trying to get in to see a circus although they have no money is here again enacted. This variation features the Cabin Kids. When they are caught under canvas, Toto the Clown, intervenes.
