    It is still fresh and pleased a large audience

    A farce comedy set mostly at a seaside resort. Although the situation has been used more than once it is still fresh and pleased a large audience, making a good deal of laughter. Two young husbands take a day off to "gs fishing," which really meant "have a gay time with the girls." The two wives smell a rat and follow; find what is going on and hire a photographer to take a picture which, on the husbands' arrival home with a string of fish, is saved for a dramatic presentation as confuting their fish story. There is some good comedy, some rough and tumble business and some good character sketching in it. It is well photographed. - The Moving Picture World, August 3, 1912
