Film opens in "Dynamic Detroit - city charming and 'Motoropolis' of the world..." A large steamer docks in the harbor off the Detroit River, printed on its hull is "Northern Navigation Co. Canadian National Grand Trunk Route." Waiting on the docks is a young woman, ready to board the steamer. She is eyed by a young man who has already boarded, looking down at her and rubbing his hands in anticipation "as if Fate had decreed" their union. The steel steamer glides out of the harbor as the young woman stands at the rear of the ship at the sky-skrapers fading into the distance. The next morning, the ship, now referred to as the Hamonic, docks at Sarnia, Ontario, where the chief feature of the day is a trip to Huron Beach. The ship's Social Hostess introduces the man and the woman to each other at the beachhouse, and they go for a quiet stroll along the beach, which causes them to be late for a picnic lunch. The passengers return to the Hamonic for "Tea Time" as the ship sets sail across Lake Huron. Nighttime activities on board the Hamonic include dancing and quiet time on the moonlit decks. The following morning finds the Hamonic steaming up St. Mary's River, winding through marine traffic, small green islands, and rugged headlands. In the afternoon, the Hamonic passes through the Canadian locks at Sault Saint Marie. A shot of the Noronic, sister-ship to the Hamonic and largest passenger boat on the Great Lakes, is shown docking at the locks as well. The next morning, the Hamonic arrives at Port Arthur, Ontario, one of the famous twin cities.~After a luncheon at the Prince Arthur Hotel, a group of passengers invite the young man to accompany them to Kakabeka Falls, described as "less massive than Niagara, they are higher and equally beautiful." The young man saves his companion from an accident at the Falls and takes her back to the ship for treatment. Before the Hamonic leaves Port Arthur, her sister ship the Huronic is shown docking. That evening, the Hamonic speeds across Lake Superior as the young couple sit on deck in smiling conversation, holding hands. Docking in Duluth, the young man is shown window shopping at a jewelry store. Later that evening, as the steamer glides across Lake Superior bound for home, the film closes on an iris shot of the two lovers holding each other at the ship's rear. <9mn 25s>
