One Plus One Equals One (1915)
Sonny Jim is sent to school and when teacher thoughtlessly gives him a vacant seat with the girls he is made the object of derision by the other boys. Becoming tired of their bullying, he tells Uncle Billy, and the latter jokingly tells Sonny he will go with him to school and "trim the bullies." He does go, but forgets all else when he sees the pretty lady teacher, and it is a case of love at first sight on both sides. Uncle Billy suggests Sonny be put over in the boys' side of the room, and teacher promises to see that the boys leave him alone. Every day thereafter Uncle Billy accompanies Sonny to school and enjoys a quiet chat with the teacher. During the absence of Mother Dear and the cook, Uncle Billy tries to cook, but his efforts make Sonny very sick. Lady Teacher comes to see him and offers to cook one big dinner for the men. All are delighted and during the meal Billy announces he is going to marry Teacher. Seeing Billy take Teacher in his arms Sonny when asked the addition of "One and one" answers promptly "One."
