“The Love Set”

After Brenda’s father is killed on a hunting expedition, her mother makes her promise to never marry “an adventurer.” Brenda gets engaged to Peter, but learns he’s “a spineless coward” and they break up. Brenda decides to find an adventurous man and “change him into a settled, home-loving type!” She tries this on ski-jumper Bob: he loves her but says she wants “to make me forget I’m a man.” However, Brenda helps rescue Bob when he is stranded in the mountains and they reconcile. He promises to never risk his life unnecessarily again.
