Vol. 13, No. 19 The Moving Picture Weekly 19 Money witk ' Outside Tke Law Salmon, Ind., May 10, 1921. Manager Universal Film Exchange, Butte, Montana. Many thanks for sending me so fine a special. "Outside The Law" is the most exciting, the cleanest and best acted crook-melodrama that I have ever seen. It is intensely interesting, having two thrilling fights, the one in Chinatown being especially exciting. This play is of high order, never cheap, nor does it once insult one's intelligence. Priscilla Dean and Lon Chaney did excellent work, and, in fact, all the characters played their roles intelligently and most satisfactorily. The ladies seemed to enjoy this as well as the men, and my patrons did not hesitate to express their satisfaction. This being such a rattling good play and being so easy to exploit, it should prove very popular in all large or small houses. Yours very truly, PHILIP RAND, Manager. — — — . .-V Lobby Display Used to Announce "Outside The Law" to Theatre Patrons of Pittsburg, Kansas. Dean Film Makes Many Friends Belton, S. C, May 18, 1921 Consolidated Film & Supply Company, Atlanta, Georgia. "OUTSIDE THE LAW" is a wonderful production, and at no time during the performance did our many patrons seem to be restless, as is usually true with an eight-reel production. Every one left the theatre thrilled through and through, and so declared, and some of those who saw the picture in the afternoon were there again at the night showing. Miss Dean is a wonder, and she had made numerous new friends in Belton, who will gladly seek admission to our theatre in whatever picture she appears in in the future. The picture "Outside The Law" is GREAT— tell them I said so, and I have seen many big pictures during my two and one-half years in the show business. Yours, PASTIME THEATRE, , By Claude A. Graves.

For this reason I was not able to take advantage of a lot of pictures that were offered to me, though I was satisfied that they were better than the ones I had booked." — From an Exhibitor. I
