A rattling mirth-maker, featuring Kate Price as Nora, a cook. She finds, at the last minute, that she has nothing to wear to the butchers' ball. The mistress is out and Nora thinks first of appropriating an evening gown. The difference in waist measure keeps her from doing so. The parlor, however, furnishes all that is needed. The portieres are made of plush. One-half, if pinned on skillfully, will do for the gown; and a curtain is fine for trimmings. A lamp shade is the basis for a good basket hat, and, when trimmed with an embroidered table doily and a bunch of fresh roses, becomes her very well. The making of this costume, in Kate Price's hands, is a scream and a scream that starts little and grows big. It is a well-made picture, fresh and very funny throughout. It makes a desirable release. Even sentimental music couldn't kill it; but it would have been much better without music. Comedies seldom need music and it's a harsh nuisance with most of them. Miss Marguerite Bertsch is the clever author. Wm. Humphrey produced it. - The Moving Picture World, October 19, 1912
