    Clever little actresses

    Special feature in two parts. Written by William Addison Lathrop and directed by Wilfrid North. The plot of this photoplay illustrates how sacrifices made for others return a thousandfold, and eventually bring fame and fortune to a struggling artist. Etienne Girardot does splendid work as Joan. Lillian Walker was enticing as Mary, and Audrey Berry and Jacqueline Brown as Laura and Toodles, two little girls, are clever little actresses. A most worthy offering. - The Moving Picture World, August 8, 1914
