Lovers o ? good, plays and fine acting are certain to welcome the announcement that "Within The Law," Bayard Veillor's absorbing melodrama of modern American Mfe, which is tho current dramatic sen sation in Now York and Chicago, is to be given its initial local presenta tion on Monday, Feb. 16th, at the Camden opera House, under the managerial sponsorship of theAmeri can Play Company. 7 Forsaking the conventional pathB pursued by playwrights Mr. Veiller hqja, hx "Within the Law," devised a virile and exciting drama of a c<jrt&ia phase of contemporaneous life in the larger cities that appeals with equal force to every class tif theatregoer. The story Is that of a young girl who is unjustly con victed and sent to prison for theft, who tries to live honestly when re leased, but is hounded by tho po lice until she loses her position and who then turn& on them uud match es her wits against their brutality, keeping "Within the Law" and em ploying *lie intricacies and false standards and technicalities of the law to shield li.er from arrest. She dovelopes, 1 ingenuity, daring and , makes the man .who sent her to prison pay for her four years of drudgery for him and her three years in a felon's cell, almost break ing ^vls heart thru his son and heir. For "Within the Law" tho Amer ican Play Company have engaged an adequate cast of individual and col lective excellence while the exten sive scenic investiture required for 'the mounting of the play is on a scale of lavishness not usually at tempted in the line of dramatic pro ductions. ?
