Shows a winter woodland in which several people are seen strolling. In the foreground, three children hold out their tongues to a gentleman standing before them. The caption reveals that the gentleman is their family doctor and that by, 'Force of Habit', they 'go through the expensive pantomime of putting out their tongues as a matter of course'. |
