Jack follows her and manages to get in communication with her by climbing a tree outside the window of her classroom. Bess manages to escape from the Preceptress's vigilance long enough to tell Jack the girls are to have a sheet and pillowcase party that evening. If he will come, they will see that he is furnished with the pillow and sheet so that he may be with them without fear of detection. Jack agrees to this plan and is on hand at the appointed hour. The girls soon have him disguised in the regulation outfit, the same as everybody else. Everything is going along swimmingly, when Jack, forgetting himself, sticks his feet out beneath the sheet. The Preceptress comes in and detects Jack's presence. He is told to make himself scarce and the girls are sent to their rooms in disgrace. A short time afterwards, when all is quiet, and the Principal thinks she is alone, Professor Dinkey cautiously approaches and whispers words of love in her ear. They sit upon the stairs and he places his arm around her waist and is just about to kiss her when the girls, who have been watching, rush down the stairs, with shouts of laughter, point reprovingly at them. The Principal and the Professor confused try to excuse themselves. The girls threaten to publish their little escapade, if they are not allowed to have gentlemen callers. Permission is given and immediately Jack is called back and told he can visit Bess at least once a week. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
