This picture play serves the purpose of introducing the Turner twins to the public under their management. They are dressed up in cowboy, pioneer or some other suits of some kind, and with a larger boy go out to hunt Indians; all three having near guns. They camp and proceed to prepare for a "snack," placing a can of beans on a fire, which explodes, startling three tramps and the rest of the neighborhood, thereby creating great comedy. This picture might be a good one if it was different. The twins are clever, but put them in something fit for children to see that is more wholesome. - The Moving Picture World, February 28, 1914
