This is a two-reel picture that visualizes a good clean motive in its plot, a boy's love for his mother, for whose sake he undergoes many dangers and hardships; even risking his life. In the end he comes out triumphant and is instrumental in restoring her to health and happiness. A splendid number that is well done. Shorty's adventures, as filmed, do not lack in excitement. - The Moving Picture World, April 11, 1914
