A Western Masquerade (1916)
Tom Bruce finds a thespian's life is not a happy one, and when the theatrical company goes on the rocks, he lands in a western town where a school master is desired. In order to eat three times a day, Tom teaches school and not the least interesting of his pupils is pretty Vicky Withers. An uncouth rancher known as Bill Stone loves Vicky, and when he sees that Tom Bruce and the girl are mutually attracted, he goes to Vicky's father. Old man Withers is a school trustee and he causes Tom to lose his job, and advertises for a schoolma'am. Tom's ability as an actor comes to his rescue, and he masquerades as a school mistress in order to remain near his lady love. Old man Withers is smitten immediately with the strange lady's charms. However, when he proposes the schoolma'am proves herself to be none other that Tom Bruce, and the old man finally consents to Tom's marriage with his daughter.All Releases
