Short summary

A swimmer loses his clothes in an explosion and dons those of a scarecrow.
A man goes in swimming and at the edge of the pond some workmen light the fuse to a blast. The swimmer climbs to the bank and is blown back into the water, his clothes being entirely destroyed. He walks to the center of a field and there discovers a scarecrow, and at once takes the old coat, trousers, hat and gloves and puts them on. Hunters and picknickers appear and from then on there is a high old time, the scarecrow partaking of their lunch and drinks and enjoying himself at their expense. In the end he is made a target and the film ends as they fail to hit the mark, owing to the agility of the human dummy to evade the bullets
