She resolves to try the experiment of giving them a female teacher, and applies for the situation. The school trustees, at their wits' end, gladly accept the offer. She arrives, and when the bad boys, led by Hank and Bill, prepare to give the new teacher a warm reception, they are astonished and dumbfounded when they find it is a woman. By force of will and stern discipline she gets the school in order and wins the love of all the scholars. She becomes particularly interested in Jack Hally, a pupil who is struggling hard to get a good education, make a name in the world, and prepare a home for his sweetheart, Prudence. Her interest in Jack is misunderstood by the boys, who think he is in love with her. Hank, who admires her himself, gets up a vigilance committee, seizes on Jack when returning with Prudence from a lesson with Rose, drags him off to the wood and is about to inflict condign punishment on him when Rose appears on the scene, berates the boys soundly for their conduct, and makes them release and apologize to Jack. Six months later she resigns. Scholars and trustees alike try to keep her, but when her fiancé Herbert arrives, they see the reason for her resignation, give her three hearty cheers, and wish her joy in her new life as she starts away on the departing train, with her husband-to-be.
