THE COMBAT

Anita Stewart, in "The Combat" Nitagraph piece directed by Ralph lnce, is much better than usual. In Tact, Miss Stewart has improved greatly in her camera work in the last six months. In The Combat" a script which calls for much emotional work, Miss Stewart ap- pears sure of herself and she car ries the scenes with the very power of her acting. "The Combat" is good film to see today--if you haven't seen it already.

 THE WHEELS OF THE LAW"
 An exceptionally well directed production is "The Wheels of the Law" five-part Metro film at the Rialto theatre today. Miss Emily Stevens is the featured lead of this photoplay and this talented actress acquits herself with charm and grace before the merciless scrutiny of the camera
 The Wheels of the Law" is a photoplay built around conviction on circurstantial evidence in the courts. It is story of dynamic force, with district attorneys and posses as it's leading characters, and its central idea is to show that clrcumstantial evidence is often tlmes a dangerous and unjust fal- lacy
 There is no question but that The Wheels of the Law" is an absorbing and enjoyable photoplay.
