She meets with a reception in marked contrast to that which everybody, from the principal down, gives to the daughter of a millionaire. Timid and lonely, she does not enjoy the first days at school. Then the rich girl takes her up, gives her pretty dresses and in other ways makes life pleasant for her. At the rich girl's graduation party her most eligible young man pays so much attention to the poor girl that she becomes jealous. On an automobile tour the rich girl's car breaks down near the poor girl's home, and she invites her companions in. When they make fun of her father's old-fashioned ways she flares up and bids them begone. Only the young man stays, and after her father's death it is he who consoles her with his love. Written by
