The Prodigal Son

The father of the two sons is first shown, presenting a large quantity of jewels and money to cach of his two sons. The one who is the "black sheep" of the family accepts his share very greedily and seems to he anxious to take it away and squander it. The other son carefully turns his share over to his servants and instructs them what he wishes done with it. Immediately the wealth is distributed the first son hurries away with his treasure and the second re-enters his father’s house.
Here the scene changes, and shows the spendthrift at his pleasure in a wine garden. Next he is seen, after his share has been spent, wending his way back home. Outside the house he sees the pigs and, being very hungry, pushes them away from their troughs and cats their food. He is discovered by his father’s servants and driven off. He returns to the stable after the servants have disappeared and, sitting down on a nearby stone, falls asleep. In his dreams he sees his anxious mother awaiting his return and his father endeavouring to comfort her. Upon waking he decides to go to the house. As he approaches the door he is stopped by one of his father’s slaves and, not being recognized, is refused admission. He induces the slave to send for his mother, and immediately she appears. She recognizes her son and they embrace each other. The glad news is sent to the father, and when he sees him there is great rejoicing. The fatted calf is killed and great is the joy of the entire house-hold at the return of the lost one.
