A Biograph subject which depicts a vigorous spanking bee in which a group of cowboys and the kid figure. But the kid turns the tables on his tormentors by appearing at a mask ball dressed as a belle and succeeds in getting his most troublesome opponent to making love. Upon his unmasking the ardent swain's consternation may be imagined. It can't be described. It is an amusing picture and the fun is based upon harmless jokes. Such acting as is required is in harmony with the subject and will commend itself to the most exacting critic. The film represents fun and such horseplay as men are disposed to show when a group are together. - The Moving Picture World, September 25, 1909
