Synopsis: [?] [From The Moving Picture World]? One delightful hour in the company of a girl with ravishingly beautiful eyes, an exquisite voice, and the charm of Circe — this was the memory that kept returning to Wallace long after the other guests at Mrs. Van Stuyvesant’s masked ball had forgotten the incidents of that night when May West stole in among them. Sometimes Wallace thought he had dreamed the enchanting lady and all the exciting events of that night, but it couldn’t be a dream, because he still had the slipper she had dropped in her flight. Then in the dusk he heard the new governess telling his motherless children the story of Cinderella, and knew that he had found her at last: the Lady of Dreams. For May West, the old fairy tale came true incredibly: her Prince Charming really loved her.
