Synopsis

Matters come to a climax in wealthy John Winchell's quarrels with his spendthrift son Craig when the latter becomes involved with divorcée Clara Marshall, and Craig breaks with his father. In the village of South Paradise, Craig happens to meet Mary Murdock, the daughter of a minister, and falls in love with her. They marry and move to the city. When Winchell refuses to meet Mary, believing that she must be the wrong kind of woman, the couple resolve to make it on their own. Craig goes to work, and Mary becomes Winchell's secretary, making a favorable impression. Soon Craig is back to his dissolute ways, seeing Clara. Eventually Mary is revealed as Craig's wife, and she rescues Craig from Clara's wiles, intending to leave him. Mr. Winchell and Craig plead for a reconciliation, and the future looks bright for Craig and Mary.
