 Hidden Pearls" finds Hayawaka the son of the ruler of an island in the south seas and very much as he thinks in love with a flashy American girl whom he almost worships in his blind idolatry.

 With Hayawaka's feature will be shown another Lincoln picture. This episode of the series is called The Presidents Answer"
