Determined to prove his worth, he gets his chance when he discovers that Betty's mother is being blackmailed by a criminal gang.—frankfob2@yahoo.com
- Claiborne, son of Avery Claiborne, a wealthy manufacturer, decides to abandon his life of ease and go to work in earnest. Rejecting an inside position in his father's office, he starts out to hunt a job with a "kick" in it, and undertakes to drive his father to the latter's office en route. They overtake a taxi driver who is annoying a girl. She appeals to young Claiborne for help. He rescues the girl and throws out the driver of the taxi, leaving his father, who knows nothing about a car, to handle the racer. All he can do is keep the racer in the road until the gas gives out and it "dies." Meanwhile Jeffrey accepts a job with Mrs. Moir, mother of Jane Anne, the girl he rescued, who is the owner of a taxi line. It develops that Mother Moir at one time had underworld connections but forsook them in order that she might bring up her daughter respectably. Some of the woman's old friends, well known crooks, take refuge in her house and she is powerless to prevent this, fearing exposure. Jeffrey's love for Jane Anne leads him to investigate. He exonerates Mother Moir of any blame for hiding the criminals, and escorts his bride to the big house on the avenue, where he is given a cordial welcome, since Claiborne, Sr., is now satisfied that Jeffrey will settle down and attend to business.
