Directors

George D. Baker

The story

As described in a film magazine, the film begins with a well-drawn cartoon of an early man carving his love letters on stone and the effect of getting slapped on the head with one, and of a medieval scene where Romeo brings the wrath of Juliet's father when he writes love letters to her and slips them over the balcony. Robert "Babby" Jenks (Hughes) is a department store clerk who pictures himself a hero in love with a beautiful girl. When he enlists to fight in World War I he is handicapped by his small size and consigned to the mess tent.
