A soaked city street blocks traffic as leaves clog a sewer grate. A twelve year old boy in a wet black coat clears the obstruction, allowing the flood to recede and saving feet from wetness and possible illness. The narrator praises the boy for using his eyes and wits to find a remedy.
A visiting great surgeon from abroad helps a Southern city children’s hospital through a brave patient, the Little Soldier. The boy’s whistle amid pain inspires caretakers, and a Legion of Honor cross seals the moment of mutual courage and gratitude.
A sophomore, Dick, returns home with a rich fraternity friend during Easter. The friend's awkward contrast between his own lavish upbringing and Dick's modest home is revealed as they share meals, a kiss from Dick's mother, and a late realization of luck in simple comforts.
