Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Vivian Martin plays a flighty lass who is forced to do a lot of growing up in a hurry when World War I comes. She offers her services to the war effort as a "farmerette," creating comic chaos with her well-intentioned efforts. Niles Welch co-stars as a farmer's son, who doesn't seem a likely prospect for success in uniform. Through Martin's encouragement, Welch proves to be officer material. Little Comrade was based on The Two Benjamins, a story by Juliet Wilbur Tompkins.
