Glenn, owner of a smalltown hotel, is charmed by Patsy Jones, a dancer, and liquidates his assets to buy the stranded theatrical troupe to which she belongs.

To recoup their losses, they enter "Hot Heels," their "treadmill trick" horse, in the races and win the prize. Glenn marries the dancing girl.
