The Other Girl

Rev. Bradford seeks the health resort conducted by William Muldoon. "Kid Garvey," who has known Mr. Muldoon for many years, calls on his old friend. Rev. Bradford arrives and he chooses the "Kid" as his trainer, believing him to be one of the regular trainers of the institution. Garvey seeks an opportunity of breaking into "swell society" and requests that he be introduced by his right name, Frank Sheldon. Besides Rev. Bradford, Mr. Thaddeus Fullon, his daughter Catherine and her chum Estelle are stopping with the Watermans and friends of the minister. The minister and the Kid are boxing on the front lawn. The children of the neighborhood learn of this and peek over the hedge at the combatants. There is one, however, the cook, who does not think that this is quite the proper conduct of a minister and plainly demonstrates it in her attitude toward the two pugilists. Catherine, not to be denied the acquaintance of the minister's new found friend, seeks an introduction. It is evident there is a mutual attraction. In the meantime, Reginald Lumley, a society fop, has told Judge Bates, an old friend of the Watermans, that he is engaged to Catherine Fulton. The Judge reminds him of Myrtle Morrison, a vaudeville headliner whom the Judge persuaded to give him up. "Kid Garvey" has known Myrtle for many years. He meets her to take her for an auto ride, when Rev. Bradford happens along. The minister is introduced to Myrtle under her right name, Miss McCarthy, and is invited to accompany them for a ride. Their drive takes them to a restaurant, where Taylor, a reporter on the Times, spies them. The next morning the family is shocked when they discover a news item telling of Rev. Bradford dining with a prize fighter and a vaudeville headliner. Mr. Waterman and Rev. Bradford explain things to Judge Bates and instruct him to demand a denial of the article or institute suit immediately. The reporter is sent to the Waterman home upon receipt of the letter to explain that the story is true and that the paper will not print a retraction. Frank Sheldon is announced and when he reads the articles he is annoyed that they stated Myrtle was at the Pleasure Palace, because she is playing at the Orpheum, a high-class house. A theater party is arranged, but Catherine slyly tells Garvey that she wants to see him and pleads a headache as an excuse not to join the party. Estelle, suspicious that the headache is feigned, volunteers to stay at home with her chum. All symptoms of a headache
