Plot

This short summary was printed in The Moving Picture World for December 6, 1919:[2]

A two-reel subject, by Jack Jevne, featuring Hoot Gibson and Magda Lane. The former plays the role of a young cowboy who commits a series of hold-ups near a big hotel for advertising purposes, being a sort of bandit press agent. The idea in this is clever and it also carries a good love story.
