- Martha, a maiden lady, is shocked to see a policeman kissing his best girl and complains to the chief of police. The chief is persuaded to accompany her on a tour of investigation and is angered to find that most of his force spend their time talking to pretty servant girls instead of arresting thieves and murderers. He posts an order to the effect that any policeman caught flirting on beat will be fined three months' pay and sent to jail. This does not please the police and is no more welcome to their sweethearts. They lay a trap for the chief. He is not averse to a little flirtation himself and when a pretty girl meets him in the park and persuades him to have a stroll she does not have to argue very hard nor long. The waiting police bustle after Miss Martha and as she appears on the scene all the girls are found surrounding the chief. The girls and policemen take themselves away, well pleased with the success of their plan, but the chief is not happy when Martha tries to flirt with him. He makes a break for liberty and the cops and girls go along with him. They finally take refuge behind a high fence and from the top dump rubbish down on Miss Martha. The chief is convinced that Miss Martha is a nuisance.—Moving Picture World synopsis
