It was no easy job, as this amusing farce comedy shows, to do this. Father was old enough to enjoy slippers, and a comfortable seat in a sunny window, but he didn't enjoy them. His children tried to "keep an eye on him," but he led them many a dance. He was no foolish, doddering old man, as shown, but an old boy, as bright as a steel trap. The scenes which picture the developing complications are so wisely conducted that we don't lose sympathy with father not yet with the children. After all, the great feat of a farce or farce comedy is the sympathy the spectator can feel for the characters. It is a good farce, well acted and photographed and it gets over. - The Moving Picture World, February 24 1912
