Synopsis
John Henry Jackson is in love with Myra Dalton, private secretary to his employer, Amos Comby. He induces her to sign a 30-day option agreeing to marry him if he doubles his salary within that time. Learning of the agreement, Comby, determined not to lose his secretary, discharges Jackson. A month later, Jackson is the proprietor of "Hotellerie des Enfants--a parking place for children of busy mothers" and ready to claim Myra. At the same time a large firm proposes a consolidation with Comby on the condition that John Henry be made general manager. Comby is refused when he offers to buy out Jackson's business, and Gorham induces his nurses to strike, allowing the children to escape and causing wild confusion. John Henry comes to Comby in a rage and is appointed general manager of the consolidation. Myra is only too happy to have the option taken up.
