Not One to Spare Synopsis

A Vermont family with seven children is presented with an offer from a wealthy relative of an estate and an allowance in return for one child, which he wishes to adopt to brighten his lonely life. After much speculation, they decide on the oldest girl, whose musical interests cannot be furthered by their limited means. She no sooner leaves than the mother suffers remorse, and the father, equally unable to surrender his child, brings her back to the farm.

The Jackeroo of Coolabong Synopsis

Brian O'Farrell (Snowy Baker), is an English 'new chum' who takes a job at an Australian cattle station. He is teased by station hands because of his appearance (including spats and a monocle) but he soon impresses them with his skills at riding and boxing. The station manager, John MacDonald (Wilfred Lucas), takes O'Farrell to Sydney to meet his daughter Edith (Kathleen Key) who is working in the slums. Edith is kidnapped by criminals after witnessing a crime but O'Farrell rescues her. It is later revealed he is the owner of the station.
