Triangle Single Reel Comedies (Triangle) — "Very ordinary. In many instances we take them off after the first run. Triangle can do better work than these show." — Leo Peterson, Iris Theater, Belle Fourche, S. D. The Ten of Diamonds, with Dorothy Dalton (Triangle)—"Star good in this line of work. Story good but the titles and readers are rather risque. Not advisable for a Sunday show." — Leo Peterson, Iris Theater, Belle Fourche, S. D. Idolators, with Louise Glaum (Triangle) — "A somewhat over-done 'vamp' story. The public is tired of this kind of pipe dream. A good picture, however, of this type." — Leo Peterson, Iris Theater, Belle Fourche, S. D. The Little Reformer, with Bessie Love (Triangle) — "The usual type of story for this star. Some very good character work and small town stuff is pictured. A good picture of this type." — Leo Peterson, Iris Theater, Belle Fourche, S. D. Mountain Dew, with Margery Wilson (Triangle) ■ — "A 'good offering of the 'moonshine' type. Beautiful scenery helps put it over." — Leo Peterson, Iris Theater, Belle Fourche, S. D.

D. The Flame of the Yukon, with Dorothy Dalton (Triangle) — "Played it two days in the worst kind of weather at advanced prices. The best picture of this type made. True in every way to that country and that time." — Leo Peterson, Iris Theater, Belle Fourche, S. D. The Devil Dodger, with Roy Stewart (Triangle) — "This picture did not please.

Broadway, Arizona, with Olive Thomas (Triangle)— "A good picture." — Leo Peterson, Iris Theater, Belle Fourche, S. D. The Iron Strain, with Dustin Farnum (Triangle) — "Six reels. New print.

The Man Hater, with Bessie Barriscale (Triangle) — "This is sure some picture. Miss Bessie can't be beat. This pleased all classes of people. The acting is very good. Patrons like this kind of picture, with lots of laughs and very interesting from start to finish." — Mrs. George Volk, Kensington Theater, Buffalo, N. Y. The Maternal Instinct, with Enid Bennett (Triangle)— "A wonderful picture. You will have no complaints on this one. The star is fine and went over big."Mrs. George Volk, Kensington Theater, Buffalo, N. M. VITAGRAPH A Prince in a Pawn-shop, with Barney Barnard (Vitagraph)— "Splendid drama. Everyone well pleased. Especially appeals to Jewish people." — Faul and Overton, Lyric Theater, Winchester, 111. Dead-shot Baker, with William Duncan (Vitagraph) — "This would have been a good picture a few years ago but is a poor one now. One reason why it did not go here is that this town knows what the west is." — Leo Peterson, Iris Theater, Belle Fourche, S. D. Soldiers of Chance, with Evart Overton (Vitagraph) — "The poorest picture I have used in months. Vitagraph must have made this years ago and slipped it in when no one was looking.
