Some Fools There Were (1913)
A very pretty girl came to the summer resort hotel. Three bachelors, who had been idling away their time at the resort, brightened up perceptibly, and laid plans to make her acquaintance. But unfortunately, the girl chanced to pass as they were discussing the details and overheard them. The first man "sprained" his ankle. The girl and her aunt helped him tenderly to the hotel. The "sprain" ceased as soon as the two women left him. The second man "accidentally" hit the aunt in the back while golfing. He was a good golfer and the ball struck her where he had intended it should, right between the shoulder blades. He profusely apologized and was forgiven, incidentally making the girl's acquaintance. The third man, older than the others, and a finished prevaricator, informed the girl the he knew her father. She did not ask any embarrassing questions, but charmed him by the confiding way she accepted his statement. There was intense rivalry among the bachelors, but the girl seemed to like all of them. She delighted in posing them in odd attitudes while she snapped them with her little Kodak, telling them how "funny" they looked. The day came when the belle had to leave. The three bachelors sadly bade farewell, but she assured them that they would hear from her soon. They did. For the evening's newspaper contained a picture of the fair enchantress, who, it seemed, had been stopping at the hotel under an assumed name. She was really a well-known writer, who had been collecting data and photographs for a magazine article on "Fools One Meets at Summer Resorts." The bachelors were stunned. They remembered the cute little snapshots the girl had taken of them, and realized that they would look "funny" (as the girl expressed), in a magazine article. They had been very sentimental and foolish, they all realized, and there was no doubt that they had furnished much material to the young authoress.
