"PAULA LEE" HER FAVORITE ROLE SAYS DOROTHY DALTON, PARAMOUNT STAR During her remarkably successful career, Dorothy Dalton, Thomas H. Ince ' s beautiful and talented young screen star, has been called upon to portray a wide and varied range of characters. Miss Dalton, however, avers that she finds more and better opportunities for effective acting in the part of "Paula Lee," the heroine of John B. Ritchie's photodrama, "The Price Mark," in which she will be seen at the Theatre on than in any of her earlier roles . THE "LAND OF THE NILE" EXQUISITELY PORTRAYED IN "THE PRICE MARK" a Photographically speaking, "The Price Mark", in which clever Dorothy Dalton is appearing at the Theatre on of week, is one of the supreme achievements of photoplay history . Effects that have hitherto been impossible of achievement in photography and scenes that rival in sheer beauty the grandeur of a master's painting, are seen in abundance throughout the film. The director, Roy Neill, who worked under the direct supervision of Thomas H. Ince, has spent several years of his life in Egypt, and from his own experience as well as from numberless photographs and plans, the details of the picture were carried to a perfection seldom equalled. Dorothy Dalton, Thomas H. Ince's brilliant photoplay actress will be seen at the Theatre on of week in "The Price Mark." This is Miss Dalton's first appearance under the Paramount banner, and reflects the celebrated producer and his popular star in one of the most ambitious photodramas of the year. "The Price Mark" has to do with a young girl who goes from a small Ohio town to New York City in search of a theatrical position. Failing to secure this, she is forced by ever-pressing poverty to accept an engagement as an artist's model. From the moment that Miss Dalton, in her screen character of Paula Lee, enters that studio to the last scene of the picture, there is a romance that thrills even the most blase theatre-goer, so accurately and understandingly does it portray the very heart of the artist's model and her life from that point. 14
