    A very fair humorous conception

    Here is a very fair humorous conception, though rather drawn out. Dad is an old toper and in spite of the doctor's warning that he will soon begin to "see things" he refuses to quit. The son borrows an elephant, a camel, some monkeys and snakes from a visiting circus and gives the old man a scare which effects a speedy cure. The idea in this is amusing and entertaining. - The Moving Picture World, July 26, 1913
