The chief conceives the idea of storing this juice to offset future dry seasons. At his command, the tribe stores the liquid in skins, hanging them to the roof of their cave. Years later, the chief dies. Strengthless, his son is despised by the tribe because of his timidity. The chief's son is relegated to tending the tribal fire while Rockface a man of great strength, is made head of the tribe. Strengthless is fascinated by Blue Eyes, the daughter of Rockface. Several other cavemen are in love with her. Rockface announces that the man who succeeds in defeating all other suitors will receive the girl for his mate. While the suitors are battling, Strengthless accidentally jabs a hole in one of the skins containing the juice stored away years previous. He catches some of the liquid in his mouth. It tastes so good that Strengthless drinks a large quantity of it. The result is the world's first jag. The noise of the combat reaches Strengthless's ears. For the first time in his life, he feels the desire for battle. His father's huge club stands in a corner of the cave. Seizing the weapon, Strengthless ventures forth and attacks the entire tribe. His sudden exhibition of courage and strength terrifies the cave men and they flee. When the members of the tribe finally venture to return, they see Strengthless seated in his father's place, with Blue Eyes as his mate. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
