Mr. Gray takes the tip as a valuable and spicy piece of news, but it must first be verified. To secure some authoritative facts, Diana Morley, a young lady reporter of the paper, is assigned to the case. She applies for a position as model at the department store. Being very pretty in face and figure, she makes a very favorable impression upon Robert Gray, Jr., and he likewise, upon her. It seems to be a case of mutual admiration. She is recommended by him to his father and is at once employed. Bob is completely captivated and charmed by her grace and beauty, and does not hesitate to tell her he loves her. She writes a note to the editor of the paper that the "tip" is O.K. and Robert Gray, Jr., is to marry one of his father's employees, whose picture, number 471, is on file at the office. When the editor receives this news, he hurriedly gets the picture and finds that it is a photograph of Diana. The story is published in the evening's paper. Bob reads it and he immediately writes her a note saying he considers her story a proposal and he accepts it. When Bob tells his father, he makes strenuous objections. Bob shows him the letter he wrote to Diana, agreeing to marry her. Mr. Gray takes the letter and writes across it, "My heartiest congratulations and blessings" and gives it to Diana. She gives it to Bob and Mr. Gray makes a hurried exit, leaving them alone in their happiness. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
