This picture, though not as good as it might have been, shows how strong the motion picture can be as an argument. It is very effective, but it is made so wholly by the presence of the children, the political scenes being hardly sensible. The physician in this picture is like doctors in other moving pictures; one would think he wanted to frighten his patient to death. No good doctor ever acts so. Lockjaw is a terrible disease. No agony that could be shown on the screen would begin to overdo it. However, the playlet is strong enough, and will do much good. It is just the kind, too, that will be popular, and be in great demand. - The Moving Picture World, June 17, 1911
