    It makes titters rather than laughter

    A comedy in a rural setting in which Beverly Bayne, a stranded actress, earns her keep by leading a singing school. There is a secondary story of country love, temporarily broken, in which Eleanor Blanchard and Augustus Carney play the roles. It makes titters rather than laughter as it might have done if the rural love story had been pushed to the fore rather than the story of the actress, although Miss Bayne is all that could be desired in this role. The older country people do not seem very convincing. - The Moving Picture World, March 8, 1913
