She is very pretty and is the subject of a contest between the boys as to who shall win her favor. She is impartial and gives them all generous helpings. When Cutey learns of Mamie and the generous lunch counter he decides to investigate for himself. He goes to the lunch room and wins the widow's favor. He is completely captivated by her charming little ways. So attentive is he that he arouses the jealousy of the college boys, who use all their wits to defeat him. They resent being waited on by Susie Finch, a most unattractive waitress, gracious in manner, but not beautiful in looks, and they decide to put a stop to Cutey's little game and telegraph to his stern old uncle that he is about to marry a waitress. Poor Cutey does not know, as he speeds along with Mamie in his fast roadster, that his uncle Van is on his way to the college town. Uncle Van has been having difficulties with an overbearing housekeeper who wants to run his house and him also. The telegram breaks down all of his patience. He fires the housekeeper and takes the first train for the college. When he arrives he goes straight to the lunch room. After conversing a while with Susie Finch, who embarrasses him by flirting with him, in comes Mamie, who is startled when she sees him. He seems hungry and she gives him lots of good things to eat. Uncle Van is a very portly gentleman and is fond of good eating. He is so tickled with his repast that he falls in love with the little widow and asks her to marry him. She has seen that he has a great lot of money and decides to favor his suit. They go out and get married. When Cutey goes to her house that evening with flowers and presents he is met there by the college boys at the gate, and he completely collapses when he sees his uncle coming from the house with Mamie and is told by the boys that they are married.
