The father of the family, a writer of poetry, is shiftless and is "fired" by his hard-working wife. Twelve years later he comes home, rich, but disguised as a tramp. His wife is kind to him, but his two hopeful children show too clearly that they have needed parental correction badly for long and they get it. Perhaps no one will be convinced that such things could ever happen as shown here. The acting and the staging are a help and it will be watched by most not without interest. Harold Vosberg plays the father; Adrienne Kroel, the mother; Thomas Flynn, the son; and Grace Darmond, the daughter. It is clearly photographed. - The Moving Picture World, June 6, 1914
