The basis of this two-part picture is the theory that the ideal way of raising children is to isolate them from the world. Most of the scenes take place on Arcadia Island, illustrating the primitive manner of life a father has adopted for the purpose of rearing his children in an atmosphere of simplicity. The cast is made up of leading Vitagraph actors supporting Lillian Walker, and the acting is all well done. There is a strong comparison drawn between the artificialities of the city and the simple life of seclusion. A number worth viewing. - The Moving Picture World, November 21, 1914
