Synopsis: [?] [From The Moving Picture World]? Rose Grey, the dramatic critic, has long ago forgotten the village in which she was reared. Her single connection with the old life is her sweetheart, Dan. So, when Effie, her former school friend, comes to town with the manuscript of a play she has written, Rose attempts to avoid her. But it is hard to snub a village friend who wants you to read her play. Effie is alone in Rose’s rooms when Dan calls. Rose, returning, discovers them with their heads together, and becomes jealous. But she is mistaken; they are merely planning to surprise Rose by disposing of the play she won’t read. In a theatrical agent’s office Effie meets Norton, a star, who is won by her personal charm. He accepts the play and calls with Dan. Only then does Rose discover her mistake.
