"A dramatic allegory which vividly proves that contentment is the keynote of true happiness"

Overview

At the crook of a road leading to Success is the little hamlet of Sleepy Hollow. One day, the regular road is closed for repairs, and the detour forces traffic to pass through Sleepy Hollow on the way to Success. Passing through the town is Avarice and his beautiful bride Innocence who stirs the envy of the village blacksmith, Ambition. Following them along the road to Success, the blacksmith encounters a wishing tree which enables him to switch bodies with Avarice.
