The story

Jack Griffith, known as "Papa" to all, is a family man in a Texas town, but an irresponsibly eccentric one especially when he has had one too many drinks. To impress his six-year-old daughter, Corinne, he spends the family's savings to buy his own circus, simply so the little girl can have her own pony. His elder daughter, Augusta, becomes distraught as her father makes some questionable business deals under the influence of alcohol.
