Synopsis
Lola, a dancer who is the favorite of the wealthy members of the Thirty Club, helps to win a bet by attempting to gain the affections of Dr. Jennings, who works in the lower East Side slums. To be near him she becomes a children's nurse and is so devoted to the work that Jennings is won over, but when she tries to obtain money for his "Emergency House" by dancing at the club, he discovers her past and abandons his welfare work. Lola is called to a dying child and set upon by a mob, but she is rescued through Jennings and they are reconciled.
