The notion of country holidays for city dwellers was becoming popular and would really take off in the postwar years.
Absolutely beautiful depictions of background detail, from the railroad ties Sniffles walks along to all the flora and fauna he experiences.
Among the nocturnal observers Sniffles sees are quail, a caterpillar, a moth, a grasshopper, and an owl.

The influence of the popular film Le magicien d'Oz (1939), released the prior year, can be seen here in the ominous tree silhouettes and spooked nighttime environs.
