Synopsis.-With his grandfather. small Rainsey Milholland is watch, ing the "Decoration Day Parade' in tle home towil. Tle old gentle nan, a weteran of the Civil war, endeavors to impress the young ster with the significance of the great conflict, and many years aft erward the boy was to rememnber his words with startling vividness. In the schoolroom, a few years afterward, Ramsey is not distin guished for remarkable ability. though his pronounced dislikes are arithmetic, "Recitations" and Get man. In sharp contrast to Ram sey's backwardness Is the precocity of little Dora Yocum, a young lad? whom in his bitterness he denomi nates "Teacher's Pet." In high school. where he and Dora are classmateS. Ramsey continues to feml that the girl delights to mani feat her superiority, and the vin dictiveness he generates becones alarming, culininating in the reso lution that some day he will "show" her. At a class picnic Ram sey, to his embarrassment, appears to attract the favorable attention of Miss Milla Rust, a young lady of about his own age and the ac knowledged belle of the class.
