In strong scenes she shows that she is honest

Helen Maitland, daughter of a minister, devotes her life to the uplifting of the Chinese. A rich Chinaman falls in love with her. His friendliness angers Arthur Hadley, the girl's lover. He quarrels with her and they separate. But Helen discovers afterward that the Chinese go from her school to the gambling den. Then, in strong scenes she shows that she is honest, and not only renounces her useless and unappreciated work but wins back her lover. Winifred Greenwood, as Helen Maitland, is convincing, and T.J. Carrigan as Arthur Hadley is an acceptable lover. Rex de Rosselli plays the part of Hing Lee, the wealthy Chinese, with appreciation. - The Moving Picture World, July 1, 1911
