The story

When a traveling carnival comes to a small farming town, so many of the locals are cheated that they trash the carnival. Promoter Bill Hogan goes to the local bank to raise money to get out of town before the carnival's bills catch up with it, and sees that instead of an adding machine the bank is using Elmer Lamb, a meek clerk who is a calculating prodigy. Hogan hires him as "Chain Lightning" and displays Elmer in competition with an adding machine, but the public is not interested.
