She determines to rid herself of these persecutions, so, disguising herself as an unattractive and simple applicant for work, she obtains the position of “ The Social Secretary” in a home that is bordering on the brink of tragedy through the profligate habits of the son and the daughter’s unfortunate desire to sell herself to a bad specimen of foreign nobility for the sake of kiß title. Complications and adventures arise that nearly sacrifice the typist’s reputation, until explanations ensne. Supporting this clever star feature is the really funny Triangle Keystone comedy, “ She lioved a Sailor. Marvellous feats of daring and escapes form the chief items in this clever and real funny 2000 ft Keystone.
