Synopsis:
The story of the Crochets, a Cajun family, who live in a Louisiana bayou.

 They are proud of the steps which they have salvaged from the river

for their two-room shack, which houses a family of eight. "The Commodore"

 is a lazy man, who presumably earns his living as a ditchdigger.

Mrs. Crochet raises lilies in the swamp, hoping she will someday be

able to sell them. They learn of the possibility of getting a larger home,

one that will match their steps, if they can raise $60. They are sure of

getting the money, but at the last minute their hopes are dashed when

 their sources prove unreliable. Then a florist from New Orleans appears

and buys all of Mrs. Crochet's lilies, 7,000 at 2 cents each, saving the day. [RF]
