Honey trapped on the ice floe headed towards a waterfall like Lillian Gish in the climax of Way Down East. The scene with Gish is well-known as an early example of parallel action editing technique. The pointless cutting back-and-forth between Honey on the ice floes and the mouse practicing his golf putt could be taken as a joke about this editing technique.
