Action
"....a regular row of little silver fish, arranged on a ....
A dog like lightning darts in, seizes one of the fish, and
then a hand comes into picture and slaps the dog
as dog runs away. Then the hand goes on arranging the fish,
placing tow or three more in the row."

On banana leaves in four rows parallel to camera are
arranged silver fish, smallest fish in row camera left; last
row to camera right is red fish. Heads of all fish face
camera right; rows are close together so that head of one
row almost touch tails of others.

silver fish in the row camera left. But the dog business
does not happen.
