Synopsis:
Superman apprehends a diminutive crook who calls himself Tiny Trix. When the crook is taken to jail, he gets out by claiming to be a child. Lois then writes a scathing article admonishing Superman for persecuting children. Tiny Trix is sent to grammar school, but he soon tires of the charade. He returns to crime by committing a series of robberies in which his small size is a benefit. After a string of unsuccessful attempts to capture Tiny Trix, Superman plans a trap for his foe, then uses a marionette to capture him. This time, Tiny Trix is sent to prison where he is imprisoned in a bird cage.
