| ~Plot Synopsis~ |
Although Charles Ray doesn't play one of his country boy roles in his first picture for United Artists, John
Paul Bart could be considered the city cousin -- he's a poor pants presser who believes that clothes
really can make the man and sets out to prove it. He "borrows" a dress suit from the tailor shop where
he works and crashes a fancy reception. Even though he risks making a fool of himself, Bart draws the
attention of Abraham Nathan, the president of a steamship company (Stanton Heck). Nathan invites Bart
on a cruise, and he is able to show off his real talents as a mediator when labor unrest occurs. Nathan is
impressed and gives him an important job in his firm. Bart continues his romance with Tanya Huber
(Ethel Grandin), his sweetheart from the tailor's shop, but he has a rival in one of the labor leaders. The
worker exposes him as a former clothes presser and the humiliated Bart goes back to the tailor's shop.
Nathan, however, doesn't care about Bart's past and tracks him down. Bart is back where he really
belongs, and he and Tanya become engaged.
