    The story clear, fresh and interesting

    An amusing, romantic comedy, played by Miss May Buckley, as the telephone girl, and by Mr. Harry Meyer, as the business man who sent the hurry call. He had already fallen in love with the pretty central. He sent the call and she didn't hear; she was pinning on the flowers he had sent her. He got no reply and reported the girl. He was very much peeved until he found out who the girl he had reported was, and then she was the furious one. The next time he used the line he proposed. Mrs. Walters adds much to the picture's opening scene by a moment's very good acting. The final scene of the picture, a little catch of love at the foot of the stairs, is very pretty and very well acted. It was much more natural than some of the other scenes were. The photographs are good; the story clear, fresh and interesting; and the release can be relied upon to furnish entertainment even to the critical. - The Moving Picture World, April 13, 1912
