Summary: “Free to love”: After serving time for a crime she did not commit, Clara Bow tries to kill the judge but can’t go through with it. She becomes his ward instead and falls in love with a family friend — a minister whose father has a weakness for jewels. Clara becomes unwittingly involved with the criminals who deal in stolen gems; but in the end she and her suitor are free to love. (61 mins.)
“My Lady of Whims”: Prudence is actually a nice girl at heart, even though she’s led her indulgent but worried Dad to believe she’s kicking up her heels and living life to the full in Greenwich Village. So Dad hires a muscle man to track down his “wayward” daughter and see that she stays out of trouble. (44 mins.)
“Hula”: The daughter of a pineapple plantation owner in Hawaii sets her sights on a married English engineer. (64 mins.)
