The Soilers Synopsis
Zasu and Thelma are working their way through college by selling magazine subscriptions. Finding little success going door-to-door, they decide to use their charms to sell to men at their workplaces.
The Man from Montana Synopsis
When Dad Petzel is swindled out of the Busy Bee mine, his partner, Duke Farley, ventures East to capture the crooks. Meanwhile, Summers, one of the grafters, learns that Farley's other mine, the Worm, has struck gold and determines to take control of it, too. Using Meta Cooper, an innocent girl to whom Farley is attracted, Summers frames the cowboy for the Mann Act, hoping to force him into selling the mine, but Farley thwarts Summer's plan when he marries Meta instead. Undaunted, Summers hires a sea captain to shanghai Farley. At sea, Farley discovers that Petzel and the rest of the cowboys on their ranch had come East looking for him and were shanghaied by the same captain. Together, they take over the ship and return to land in time to save Meta and arrest Summers.
"The Soilers" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Man from Montana" offers its own unique cult appeal.
