The Dawn of Romance
Directed by George Loane TuckerPretty, 16-year-old Doris Mason, whose mother is dead, develops into a terrible flirt--although a perfectly innocent, harmless one. She decides that she is in love, and her father, finding her difficult to manage alone, sends for her Aunt Becky. To break her wild nature, Aunt Becky decides to send her to school. Stuart Howard, a 20-year-old man who lives near the Masons', is in love with Doris who has unwittingly encouraged him since childhood. She cannot resist the temptation of flirting with other young men. Stuart is in a continual state of jealousy and always on the lookout to save her from committing herself too deeply. Even at her boarding-school she strikes up a flirtation with her music master, Signor Cheesi, and elopes with him from the school. She is caught and saved just in time by Stuart. A surprise is sprung at the end when Signor Cheesi's wife appears with her baby. Doris escapes back to college without being found out. This constitutes the first love adventure of Doris Mason, of which many more will follow.
