at a store. While she is standing at
a counter, Helen North. a rich girl
kleptomaniac, steals a piece of lace,
and noticing that it is missed, saves
herself by thrusting it into Margery's
open bag. Thus Margery goes to
prison for a crime which she did not
commit. When Margery leaves pris-
on she becomes a trained nurse, but
her prison record is discovered
and she feels that her best field for
work is in the Belgian hospitals un-
der the Red Cross. There she again
meets Helen, who has lost all her
money. but who has received a ticket
to America and some cash from a
friend to whom her father wrote be-
fore his death. Helen is apparently
killed by a shell, and Margery deter
mines TO go to America under the
name of the woman who caused all
her misery. Helen is not really
slain, and when she seeks to claim
her own the drama develops to a
most unexpected climax.
