...memorable bodies, do little to justify the publicity bought for this picture before its openings everywhere, publicity of a frenzied quality rare even in these days when a smoke of expensive adjectives issues in advance from every cinematic fire, however small. Now and then, as one member (Bessie Love) of a team of vaudeville sisters, in love with her partner's fiance (Charles King),makes theatrical and eventually frustrated gestures toward self-sacrifice, you see how Director Beaumont has tried casually and hastily to achieve the authenticity of certain stage productions of similar subject matter.

Naughty Baby (First National). It would have taken an actress to make convincing this scenario about a check-girl who pretends to be a debutante from Boston to win the love of a young man who pretends to be a millionaire. Alice White is not an actress. Alice White is a size-fourteen girl who looks like Clara Bow, but cuter; all eyes and no chin.

Certainly she made it difficult for him: ran off with him in spite of, or because of, his wife; then left him in the lurch because, she discovered it was the cynic she "really loved...
...missionary nurses. Since the career of an undergraduate at Yale automatically ends at the altar rail, this place of advice may prove like the boomerang which circles back to decapitate its thrower. If the Yale student returns unmarried, the chances are he will be so much in love that, unable to eat, sleep, or drink, he will be able to do nothing but wander aimlessly around the quadrangle gazing at the moon and composing sentimental poetry to the object of his love. After he has cut a certain number of classes and handed in a certain number of love poems...
