A Nine O'Clock Town

1918 · 50m · Comedy · Drama

He was only a ribbon clerk, but he told them he had managed Gimbel's in New York. They believed him and told him to "go to it" at the local "Emporium." When he got through, he made them wish they were all "midnight devils" in a nine o'clock town."

David Clary runs a sleepy little dry-goods store in a sleepy little town. A vamp from the big city shows up, intent on taking Clary for everything he's worth by a combination of seduction and blackmail. But the day is saved by the ingenuity of David's corset model.
