His mother, a widow and the village postmistress, owns one storeroom which would make a valuable corner if the end of the bridge came out on one street. Mort Flint, the town mortgage holder and manager of the general store, with the aid of his henchman, Alf Perkins, a male gossip and insinuating trouble breeder, tricks Mrs. Bond into selling her property for far less than it will be worth. However, .Terry Winkle, the constable, and a true -blue friend of Mrs. Bond, finds out about the deal, and with the help of I-Ienry Tilton's brother from the city---a bridge expert who does not reveal that it is teeth he knows about and not steel bridges --get Mort to give up his purchase. The property returns to Mrs. Bond, the bridge goes in at the right street, Eddie meets the right girl, the village Uplift Society, who have meddled in the affair, are shown up in their true colors, and all ends happily.
