    This last scene is really much more effective than the dream pictures

    The object of this picture is to tell a love story of a boy and girl as memory brings back the scenes out of long ago to a middle aged man of family. Mark McDermott plays the dreamer, and as he sits before his blazing logs he sees these pretty dream-pictures as framed in his fireplace. The youth and his sweetheart are shown growing up together from childhood. Instead of singing with slides, the man is merely dreaming with motion picture slides. The man's wife comes in and interrupts his dreaming. This last scene is really much more effective than the dream pictures, fine as they are. The audience applauded it and seemed to like it very much. - The Moving Picture World, November 4, 1911
