The Lonely Road

“DANGER SHARP TURNS ON ROAD AHEAD-MARRIED WOMEN SHOULD PROCEED WITH CAUTION!!!”

Synopsis

Betty Austin gives up her dream of going to the city and marries Warren Wade, but she sadly finds him selfish and insistent on her acting like a "clinging vine." Disgusted, she joins her career-girl chum, Leila Mead, in the city, where she meets Dr. Devereaux. Shortly after returning home with Warren, their son is injured. Betty takes him to Dr. Devereaux, and Warren follows, accusing Betty of leaving him for the doctor.
