Why Girls Leave Home (1921)

Because her father has strict ideas about what clothing she should wear and with whom she should associate, Anna Hedder leaves home and takes up residence with two girl friends. She meets Madeline Wallace, whose father is extremely lenient, but he soon discovers that she is becoming too indiscriminate in her associates; Madeline rebels, and she is enticed to Anna's apartment by Reynolds, an old roué, while the girls are out. Anna and her friends return in time to save Madeline's reputation. Madeline, having learned her lesson, returns to her father; and Anna's father, having softened his attitude, persuades her to return home too.
