Synopsis edit
The various boys of the gang each manage to escape their responsibilities for the day, meeting up to build a raft for their pirate game.
Notes edit
When the television rights for the original silent Pathé Our Gang comedies were sold to National Telepix and other distributors, several episodes were retitled. This film was released into television syndication as "Mischief Makers" in 1960 under the title Music Lesson. About two-thirds of the original film was included. Most of scenes from the first half of the film that showed the various gang members at home were cut; all of the original inter-titles were also cut. The film was also released for home viewing as "Hooray for Holidays".
