The Better Way

A good offering

A picture written and directed by Sydney Cabanne. The center of it is a girl played by Dorothy Gish, who is amusing in the role and makes it a good offering. The story is fair and holds interest, but without much grip except in its setting forth a character that will appeal to spectators. - The Moving Picture World, January 2, 1915

In desperation, he decides to turn crook again, and breaks into the house where his daughter is working. She discovers him, but allows him to escape, and tells her employers it was only a cat which had made the noise which brought them to the scene of the disturbance.
