A two-reel number featuring Jack Hamilton in his familiar character of Shorty. He takes a correspondence course in acting and goes to a distant town to appear as a Roman gladiator. The burlesque is tremendously pleasing. While the play is on the rascally managers steal the money in the general store and hide it in Shorty's suitcase. When Shorty and his actor friends are run out ot the theater, accompanied by a shower of bad eggs, he takes the suitcase with him. He discovers the money on his way home and exhibits it to his cowboy friends as his earnings. This is full of ginger and laughable throughout. - The Moving Picture World, April 17, 1915
