Poppo of the Popcorn Theatre #9

Poppo the clown attempts to impress Mr. Laprat with imported canvas paintings, but Laprat discovers they are merely cheap paper and forces Poppo to display them at the theatre. When a man named Buddy arrives at the garage where the paintings are stored, Poppo accidentally causes him to fall and offers him a job. Later, at a party, Poppo performs a juggling act with dishes and tells the story of hunters Max and Joe, who bet that Joe could hunt a lion in Africa; when the lion appears at the tent, it demands the twenty dollars Joe owes him, leading to comedic chaos and broken dishware.
