The ladies are urging the mayor to appoint policewomen to the force, and after some argument, he agrees to give them a try-out. Kate is decided upon to be the first policewoman. She experiences trials and tribulations while on the force, of which she never dreamed, and almost wishes she were simply Kate Simpkins again instead of "Officer Kate." Meanwhile, her husband has grown very tired of doing housework, so hires a very pretty girl as housekeeper. Kate, after spending a very unpleasant evening on fixed post in a heavy rainstorm, comes home and finds her husband and the new girl there. Everything seems to be running smoothly, and her husband appears quite contented. Kate flies into a rage, almost pushes the girl out the door, and orders her not to come back. After meditating over the fixed post business, and a few more of her trials while on the force. Kate decides home is the place for a woman after all, and if she does not do the housework, and keep her husband company, someone else will. She turns to her hubby, greets him affectionately and vows never to leave home again, and to resign at once from the police force. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
