Sweedie, the cook, reads an ad in the newspaper for a maid to give her services in exchange for college tuition. She applies and is accepted. At college her sleeping quarters are in the dormitory, and that night while Sweedie sleeps the other girls cook a rarebit. The matron is awakened by their giggles, and when they hear her approaching they put the rarebit dish in Sweedie's bed, then pretend they are asleep. The matron finds the dish and scolds the innocent Sweedie. After she leaves a pillow fight ensues, in which Sweedie is victorious. Next day she receives a note from her Romeo telling her to meet him at 11:00 P.M. and they will elope. He tells her he will wear a mask and advises her to do the same. Another coed receives a note from her sweetheart to the same effect. The result is that the elopers at the last minute are about to marry the wrong party.
