Jack Powell and David Armstrong are rivals in the same small American town, both vying for the attentions of pretty Sylvia Lewis. Jack fails to realize that "the girl next door", Mary Preston, is desperately in love with him. The two young men both enlist to become combat pilots in the Air Service. When they leave for training camp, Jack mistakenly believes Sylvia prefers him. She actually prefers David and lets him know about her feelings, but is too kindhearted to turn down Jack's affection.

Cos' it's the only way.
My feet are on the ground
but my head is all around.
Don't need no wings to fly away,
don't need no love for today.
Watching all the world
floating in the sky.
Waiting for the word
