Synopsis
Wally Gay, a young engineer employed in the Creeth steel works, is demoted by superintendent Waldron, who is jealous of Amy Creeth's interest in Wally. While working as a puddler, Wally conceives a radical design for a new furnace and interests Amy's father in it. The design is implemented, but Waldron leads the men out on strike in protest. Wally bests Waldron in a fight and convinces the workers to return to their jobs. When a ladle full of molten steel is upset, Wally saves Amy's life, thereby winning her heart. The elder Creeth, having fully realized Wally's good character and abilities, recognizes him as both son-in-law and successor.
