It is all very funny
by deickemeyer2019-08-12

"This is a rattling good comedy, written by Fred R. Ashfield and produced by George D. Baker. The cast is Flora Finch, who plays Bella Butts. Hughie Mack, Betty Grey, Jack Brown, Jay Dwiggins, George Stevens, Edwina Bobbins and others. The women of Hicksville, headed by Bella Butts, inaugurate a crusade against the smoking habit. It is all very funny, particularly to see how the women succeed in gettmg themselves into trouble, especially Bella Butts. A fine laugh maker. - The Moving Picture World, January 23, 1915..."
