There are three kinds of slips, a slip of paper, a slip through the fingers of the police and a slip in plans that brings about an arrest of wrongdoers. All three kinds come, naturally, into this strong picture in the order we have given them. It is an unusually clever detective story, truly instructive as well as exciting and with an undercurrent of most amusing irony. It shows three sharp swindlers and how they are doing business. It then shows how the post office authorities are set upon their trail; how one detective after another (there are a half dozen on the case) fails to "nab" the people they are after and whom we want to see nabbed in spite of our interest in them; how, in the end, they are "rounded up." We commend it as a feature for any and all occasions. There is no reason why it couldn't be shown in a Sunday school, that we can see. - The Moving Picture World, April 6, 1912
