Mrs. Tabor enters heartily into all her daughter's enjoyments, while Mrs. Stokes is cold and narrow-minded. Mrs. Tabor gives her daughter, Grace, an informal dance, and, of course, the first invitation sent is to Vera, but Mrs. Stokes does not approve of dancing, so poor Vera stays at home and mourns sullenly. Shortly thereafter, Vera's mother observes her at the gate with a young man friend, and humiliates the girl by sharply reproving her and calling her into the house. The inevitable happens; Herbert King, a traveling salesman, meets her on the street. She returns his advances with coquettish glances and meets him clandestinely. The danger line is crossed; the girl is left despairing. She appeals to the man. but he is the conventional cad, goes away and leaves her almost frantic. Vera scrawls a brief note to her mother, and then sneaks away to hide her disgrace. In the meantime, Grace has happily married. Three years slip by. Grace comes to the crowning event of a woman's life, the gift of a child. Mrs. Tabor realizes too late that the fault was Vera's alone, and that she is in no small responsible for her daughter's downfall. As for Vera, she drifts down, down into the depths. One scene shows Grace and her happy home. The contrast reveals Vera in the back room of a cheap saloon, dejected, worn out, and drowsily asleep. The brutal clean-up man slouches into the room and tells her to move on. She staggers to her feet, and, buttoning her thin wrap about her, goes out into the rainy night, stumbling wearily down the street. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
