Not a few people in the United
story, THE Fear Market" written by
Princess Jroubetzkoy and not re-
called to mind a similar story which
occupied the most prominent position
on the front page OF the daily press,
throughout the country. for many
weeks.
1t deals with a vicious scandal sheet
whose editor is a mystery and Inn
possible to discover. A society girl,
Sylvia Stone (Alice Brady. An eye
witness to the act of self-destruction
committed by her friend, Mrs. Hill,
on account of the publication of a
libelous story IN his Matchmaking
paper, is determined to run down and
trap the fox in his laiar and bring
him to Justice. not only to avenge
the death Of her friend but for self
protection. being troubled of mind
lest an innocent affair which she was
a party of might be made public,
thereby doing her an injustice and
injury.
Alice Brady's portrayal of Sylvia
Stone Is so genuine that It places her
II the first rank of realistic screen
artists and her emotional work proves
her versatility beyond a p%eradven-
ture OF doubt.
The movie public s packing the
Crescent theatre where THE Fear
Market" is presented.
THE Fear Market" Is a motion pic
ture drama of different kind because
of the symphonic harmony of the
story, acting, settings, and Is 80 big
and broad in scope that 1t appeals
from many angles.

Ditmas Attraction.

In Bert Lytell's latest starring ve-
hicle, The Right Of Way" adapted
from Sir Gilbert Parker's great novel
and made into pictures by Screen
Classics, Inc. the courtroom scene
the initial dramatic incident In the
story, has been reproduced faithfully
In accordance with the arrangement
and procedure of a Canadian tribunal
Of Justice.
This, as may be observed at the Dit
mas theatre, where the picture shows
today differs in many unusual re-
spects from American courts. Under
the technical direction of A. P. Shul-
ter. of the Screen Classics, Inc. staff.
a setting eighty feet long and half
as wide was built.
One variation from American ar
rangement Is the location of the pris-
oner's dock, Instead of being ele-
waited and placed close to the judges
bench, as in this country. 1t Is sit
uated in the center Of the room Just
inside the court railing.
When the prisoner is seated he is
the center attraction of the entire
court room, being in fun view from
every side of judge, jury, attorneys
and spectators. The itself is
very plain. The walls are bare of pic
lures and ornaments. In linz and
color the effect Is notably dignihed
and severe. Only a few symbols OF
justice indicate the character OF the
setting. i.
Another Interesting detail disclosed
In the studied efforts to reproduce
faithfully the Canadian court is
that the lawyers and clerk as well as
the judge wear the flowing robes
characteristic of the ancient English
courts. In this country the practice
has been discontinued except In the
Ease of the Judge.
