They are secretly engaged to each other, but for several rather trivial reasons have fallen out. Edna is annoyed at the attentions Bob pays to other girls, while Bob resents any interference with his liberty. Heated words cause them to part in anger. Privately Bob makes a bet with a number of his men friends, while Edna also makes a wager with some of her girl cronies. The next time the two meet, they are exceptionally polite, and stroll about the grounds in earnest conversation. In a secluded corner, Bob presuming upon Edna's favorable mood, sinks upon his knees and kisses her. Edna then triumphantly exclaims that she has won her bet; that she would make him kneel at her feet, at the same time pointing to the smiling girls who are witnesses. Bob, however, declares that he bet he would kiss her, and in turn points to his male friends in the background. The result of this drawn battle is that the two young people resume their former relations and an announcement of their marriage is soon made public. Written by
