The film opens outside a house where a girl walks past a stall with flowers having a banner proclaiming 'Help the NSPCC'. Other children gather around the stall, and a boy holds up a basket of flowers. They are joined by some women. A large group of people who are sitting on a grassy bank wave to the camera. Some women play a game of trying to catch an apple in their mouths. Men in evening dress have an egg and spoon race and then a race carrying trays full of drinks. There are other silly races, including one with tyres. The servants have a race. People sit around the edge of the field in the sun watching as a group of men and women play more games.
