~Plot Synopsis~
Because he refuses to advertise the automobiles he manufactures, John Kent's business is failing. In
an effort to gain some publicity, his daughter, Virginia, has a racing car built while Kent is away.
Kent's rival sends his son, Roddy Smith, to spy on the operations and bribes another worker to
drive the car and throw the race. Virginia discovers the plot, cannot persuade Roddy to break his
promise to drive his father's car, and enters the race herself. She drives to a thrilling victory and
marries Roddy.
