They see a group of bee-hives. The thought of honey tempts them. One goes to recon- hotter and finds "The Diamond from The Sky". His partner claims "halves". A quarrel ensues. Then both draw blankets about them and curl up near a cheerful camp fire. Later a thrilling scene is enacted that's the last word in sensational picture play. Two additional num- bers completes the big show.
