    Desc: Jack O'Hearts: Directed by David Hartford. With Cullen Landis, Gladys Hulette, Bert Cummings, Antrim Short. Jack Farber, a young theological student who wants to get firsthand experiences of life before taking over his father's pulpit, goes to the big city against the wishes of his aunt. There he is the victim of circumstances and is sent to jail when a crook plants a purse in his pocket to avoid arrest. Upon release, Jack has difficulty in finding work because of his prison record and is unable to keep his conviction a secret because of the vigilance of Tim Corrigan, the detective who arrested him. Steve, whom Jack has befriended in prison, arranges for him to see an attorney, who advises him that if he serves his home pulpit for a year, he will inherit his aunt's fortune. He goes there with his crook friends, who agree to lead a clean and honest life, but Corrigan appears and warns him to leave town at the behest of Amos Pendleton, his uncle. Instead of delivering his prepared sermon, Jack tells the congregation the story of his misfortune. Steve confesses to framing him, and Corrigan declares Jack innocent.
