Comment
The behaviour of the residents of a small town are dominated by the views of the local purity league, however these views are challenged by a free thinking spinster who encourages the daughter of the leader of the league to elope with her boyfriend. This is a light comedy that centers around the energetic performance of Zasu Pitts with good support from Kathleen Howard as the puritan neighbour and Elyse Knox as her daughter. Not a classic, but fun.
