Miss Charity Prim, principal of a select school for young ladies, decides to take five of her pupils on a vacation. She writes a letter notifying the local hotel keeper that she will arrive by auto. She arrives with her charges and is met at the hotel by a deluge of cowboys, whom she chases away. Miss Prim sees Hiram, the proprietor, and her maidenly heart flutters. The next day the girls are invited to attend a dance and, fearful of their chaperone, they attire themselves in the cowboys' chaps and clothes. That evening Hiram invites Miss Prim to attend the same dance. She accepts and on the way to the festivities, sees what she supposes to be a bunch of cowboys, and most fearful that they will disclose the fact of her going to the dance to the girls, she starts back to the hotel. The girls see her and, fearful that they will be disclosed in their disguise, also scurry back to the hotel. Louise, whose boots are too large, cannot run quickly and comes face-to-face with the chaperone. She assumes the attitude of a scarecrow, and the chaperone and Hiram seeing the scarecrow, suddenly have an idea. The chaperone will disguise herself as the scarecrow and thus get back to the hotel. As they are about to remove the coat from the supposed scarecrow, it suddenly becomes animated and dashes away through the field. Meanwhile the girls at the hotel are giving an impromptu party to the cowboys. Louise arrives breathless from her run and joins the party. The chaperone arrives and hearing the confusion enters the girls' room and orders the cowboys to leave at once. Louise, donning the garb of the scarecrow, gains the old lady's consent to continue the party. Shoving her into a seat, she gives her part of the feed. She gets Hiram and leads him into the room, and sits him beside the blushing chaperone.
