- Mr. Gordon is a kind old gentleman who loves to see and be with those of youth, those who look at life with a happy smile and whose hearts sing out their gladness in pleasant song. Such was the disposition of his two young neighbors who have just moved away. Mr. Gordon sadly misses the sunshine of their companionship; he is sad and alone now. But wait, a van is delivering furniture to the vacant house. He sees a charming young woman superintending its arrival. Her grace and manner appeal to him, and he in his kind way bids her welcome as a neighbor and learns her name and vocation, Clara Warner, schoolteacher. To the other side of the kind old man dwells a young man whose name is Oliver Hurd. This young gentleman old Gordon likes and admires immensely because of his splendid habits, his intelligence and his genuine manliness. It occurs to the old gentleman that his young lady neighbor and his young man neighbor would make a perfect match and he sets to work to bring about this end between them. He is beset by many retardments, owing to Oliver's distressing bashfulness. It seems impossible to ever accomplish his self-appointed mission. His disappointment is great but from it is born his scheme that works. He pretends sickness and sends for both to attend him and keep him company. Gradually love and Cupid capture and command the bashful boy to propose, and so it is that our kind old man discovers them each in the other's arms.—Moving Picture World synopsis
