A newspaper story, based upon the importance which is attached to a news story which no other paper has. Everything is a story in a newspaper office, by the way. The scenes here are realistic, those representing the interior of the newspaper office being made from life. The reporter's progress through New York's banking section is interesting and is a faithful reproduction of that section of New York. Then come the working out of the details of the way the story was obtained and what it meant to the reporter, to the paper that published it and to the wife of the reporter who waited for him at home long and anxiously. Newspaper stories are, as a rule, distorted, but in this instance the story seems to have been worked out with care and with attention to details. While not all newspaper offices are alike, there is a certain similarity in them all. And the views showing the interior of one here may serve as indicative of all daily offices. The life will, therefore, be interesting to those who are unfamiliar with it and will afford an insight into the way a daily paper is put together. - The Moving Picture World, September 17, 1910
