This great American photo drama will rank as epic. What is the ultimate province of hei cinema has been a matter of never ending duscussion. Kvery time a film producer offers anything unusual in the way of a picture there Is a tempta tion on the part of the critics to say, "This, at laHt, is the ultimate of the screen." Unquestionably this will be said of "The Honor System," William Fox's latest triumph In film production. In tense melodrama, the grip of human emotion, the tug at the heartstrings, this Is the ultimate province of the screen. When Mr. Fox produced his mar velous photo fantasy," a Daughter of the God's'' the same thing was saia only then is was to be the fairy taje J of exquisite, bewitching beauty that : would mark the final word in film production. l ilm Art Limitless !

He be lieves that it is no more possible to restrict the art of the films than it would be to stamp as the true art of painting the productions of a particu lar school. As a consequence, when he set out to produce melodrama on the screen hi his "The Honor System" his obpect was, not to attempt the ultimate of the cinema, but to give the public the greatest, most gripping human melo drama ever filmed. Just as in 'A Daughter of the Gods," he had achlev. ed in Its highest possible decree the film beautiful. In this respect, In that It tells the greatest human story ever told, a story that gets right down to the bed rock of human emotion, "The Honor System" marks a d 1st i nee advance In the history of the cinema; Murks TMKtinct Advance. In "The Honor System" virtue finds itself in that immemorial conflict with the foces of evil that the historic stage of Drury Lane so often has wit- j nessed.' It is in its settings, in its won ' derful portrayal of types, in its swift! movement, movement that the spoken j stage never can hope to approximate, j in its accuracy of character protrayal i and in its intense modernity, that "The j Honor System' is supreme. In these reypects it may be said to mark a dis tinct advance in screen art. The" story is laid among the timely scenes along the Mexican border. The border foray is pictured in all of itb thrilling interests. The spectator can see the hordes f Villa sweeping down on helpless Columbus , the terrified citizens, the hasty organization for defense, the daring ride for assistance, the dash of the mounted re-enforce nients, the final repulse of the invad ing bandits. Minor thrills there are without number, each gripping in its intensity, but nothing equal to this "big thrill," for the very good reason that never has it been equalled on the screen. "The Honor System" Is as vivid as a battle picture. It is as up to date as a News Plctojlal.
