The young woman resolves to kill herself, and throws herself into the water rushing towards niagra falls, but is saved at the last minute by her former sweetheart. Their mode of rescue, a rope ladder hung from an airplane. They are reconciled and the letcher gets his dues.
The Lesson Synopsis
Bored by the slow pace of life in her little home town, Helen Drayton rebels when her friends and relatives assume that she will marry her friend and escort, Chet Vernon. Helen is so anxious to experience life in the big city that she falls in love with visiting New York architect John Galvin almost immediately after his arrival. Several weeks later, the two marry and move to New York, where, after a series of painful experiences, Helen finally realizes John's selfishness. In the end, she gratefully returns home and becomes Chet's wife.
