The right road and the wrong road are shown in "The Power of Decision," the Metro Wonderplay with Frances Nelson as the sta-, which was shown to an appreciative audience last night at the Grand. The central idea of the play is that "Every mortal has within himself the God-given power of decision." This problem confronts Margot, and she is forced to face the alternative of finding an answer for them in her own life, or of drifting aimlessly, Her choice is a wise one, and Mar- got's moral awakening, as told ian 'this convincing photoplay, is of tre- mendous value and compelling inter- est.
