Soon after the Spanish-American War starts, Willie volunteers and plunges madly into danger, and wins a captaincy by capturing a Spanish general. Myra marries Joe Cranberry, but when Willie hears of this, he seems indifferent. After the war Willie returns to San Augustine and is met by the Mayor, a brass band, and schoolgirls. He is the hero of the occasion. After the welcome, Willie makes for the little white cottage of Joe Cranberry. Myra is on the porch, untidy and unattractive. Willie waltzes up to her and the joke is on Myra. Written by
