Snobbery (1914)
The Gaiety Company goes broke when the manager skips with the proceeds. Ramona wires her aunt, Mrs. Van Horn, for money. This stately lady grows angry: she is giving a house party and is ashamed of the lively Ramona and her stage ways. However, she sends the money and in due time Ramona arrives and proceeds to inject liveliness into the party. This is viewed with disgust by her aunt, with annoyance to Dode, who is trying to "catch" Ned Travis, a guest, and with pleasure by Ned himself, who, having made the mistake of taking Ramona too cheaply, finds that she has both dignity and sense, and promptly falls in love with her. This affection is increased when he finds her snubbed. A guest loses a necklace, which has been taken by Dode. Ramona is accused and is not allowed to leave the house. Ned sets to work to find the culprit, knowing that Ramona is not guilty. Ned meets Dode on the porch as she is returning from a pawn shop. She stumbles and her bag flies open. When she has gone to her room Ned sees a pawn ticket at his feet. He seeks Ramona and they make Dode return the necklace to the guest's room and advise her to leave. Ramona is now cleared by the discovery of the necklace, and Ned decides to marry her forthwith, and "snobbery" takes a fall.All Releases
