The lad's acting is also very pleasing as is that of the whole cast

A very pleasing picture whose center of interest lies in a lad of ten or thereabouts who gets a new idea and helps his father who is sick and must go to the South or die. He held a life insurance policy. The lad went to the president of the insurance company and said, "We want the money now, before papa dies, so that he can get well." Mr. Arthur Johnson plays the sick father. The lad's acting is also very pleasing as is that of the whole cast. The picture pleased the audience very much. It is well pictured. Some of the outdoor snow scenes are very pretty. It is a fair feature picture. - The Moving Picture World, March 9, 1912
