He falls in love with Ruth Alden, operator of the telephone exchange. Col. Parker bitterly opposes the match, and the girl proudly refuses to marry Ralph without his father's consent. At her request, she is transferred to night duty which makes it possible for her to avoid meeting her lover. One evening, when Ralph is alone after hours in the bank, robbers break in. He is seized and bound, and they plan to imprison him in the vaults, but the young man, by a clever ruse, manages to get into communication with Ruth at the telephone exchange. She arrives with help in time to release Ralph from the vaults and to save his life. When Col. Parker hears the whole story from his son he says, "I guess you need someone to take care of you," and gives his consent to the marriage. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
