...Warwick (Forrest James). He alone knows that in the outer world beyond the mountains, women are protected and respected, that a woman was once invited by a man to tread upon his cloak in order to avoid soiling her shoes. Such regard he would have for Barbara Allen (Helen Munday) of the North Carolina Hills. But his father, having worked his mother to death, decides to take that girl to be "his new woman," after concluding a bargain with her father. The two young people escape by clinging to a log rushed down the valley on a swollen stream...

And within the University Travel Association appeared a rift, a split. One A. J. Mclntosh, who helped organize the Ryndam's cruise, lamented Editor Allen's statement and announced that a new organization, to be called The International University Cruise, Inc., would conduct another co-educational globe-trot next autumn on the Cunarder Aurania. "We are going to allow parents or other relatives to accompany the students," said...

Allen, his operating physician. Except for the inevitable and uncomfortable effects following an operation Professor Copeland's condition is most encouraging to his physicians, Dr. Allen and Dr. W.
