At her big university she alone is loveless and unloved. To a crowd of girls one day she reads a story she has written of Mary, a girl just like herself, who pines for a soldier's love. Mary read of Captain John Hastings' return from the front and writes him, explaining her plight. An exchange of letters followed, then photographs. Finally the Captain was ordered back to the front. He took Mary with him as his happy wife. As Polly finishes the story she remarks that it is only "star dust," a happy dream, but her audience is gazing across the campus in wonderment. There comes Captain Hastings for Mary, who, in reality, is Polly, herself. The "star dust" comes true. Written by
