As an actress a portrayer of emotions without the aid of the spoken word Pearl White is one of thi really great figuresof filmdom. rt In the role of "Elaine" in the famous "Exploits" Miss White. the "Peerless Fearless" girl, thrilled two continents. You who saw Miss White then will want to see her now in "The Iron Claw" her greatest triumph! "Elaine" has been outdone in this the most sensationally dramatic motion picture serial of the age. Creighton Hale, the inimitable James of the "Exploits of Elaine," whose careless swagger and dashing buoyancy have made him the target of marriage proposals innumerable, is cast in the role of a clever and courageous secretary. Sheldon Lewis, famous wherever motion pictures are shown as "The Clutching Hand," he whose forceful personality, whose dramatic sweep and power have gained him the reputation of "the most fascinating villain on the screen," is cast in a sinister role. If you want to meet the brain-child of a daring author whose imagination and pen-power know no bounds or limitations, read "The Iron Claw" stories by Arthur Stringer. They will be published weekly in this newspaper simultaneously with the appearance of the pictures. See the Pathe Pictures of
