MUCH INTEREST IN
PROVERD CONTEST
Do Not Be Discouraged 1t You
Can Solve Only Few
of Them.

Interest in the Evening Star
proverb contest has reached fever
pitch with the added enrolment of
contestants during the week. There
will probably be no abatement In the
enrolment of new contestants until
the last picture has appeared on the
pages of the Evening Star. The in
terest of the thousands Of con-
testants, however, will keep up until
the names of the prize-winners are
made public
Now a word to contestants. The
main thing in the contest is not to
get discouraged. Almost all OF you
will be unable TO solve every one Of
the fifty proverb illustrations Prob
ably you yourself at the present time
have failed to solve one. possibly two
or three pictures. Well, do not let
that worry you. If you have a
proverb handbook keep studying the
picture until you do get the answer.
If you have not a proverb book then
it is absolutely necessary to get one
to solve the picture.
If, even with the aid of the provero
book, you are unable to solve the
pictures do not give the contest up
in disgust, but keep right on trying
until you have received the total
number OF pictures and send what
pictures you have solved. Even then,
with two or three answers missing,
you stand a good chance for the list
of fifty prizes offered by the Evening
Star.
IF at first you don't succeed try,
try again." is an old adage and
should be followed by everyone in
the present contest. If you cannot
discover the answer to a picture with
several hours study, lay the illustra-
ton away and labor on 1t another
day. If you still cannot find the an
swer repeat the program until you
finally do solve 1t. Then you will
feel so exhilarated and pleased that
you will take added interest in the
contest.
Prospective contestants would do
well to enter the great race today.
Then they would have all day tomor-
row to work on the illustrations when
the family is all congregated and
could help one another. Step into
the Star office on your way home
and enter. Also take a proverb book
home with you, as it will help you
greatly In the work of the correct
wording of the various proverbs.

4REBECCA" TO Be

PLEASURABLE PROPULSION
IN PROGRAM AT PROCTOR'S
Fun at Gayety, Miners, Wash
ington; Thriller at Jacobs's,
Opera at Ross's.

Refreshing as the breeze that plays
over Maine meadow In June, and
watts the perfume to the passerby, is
the story told in Kate Douglas Wig
gins "Rebecca Of Sunnybrook Farm"
which will be seen at Newark Theatre
next week.
And, withal, there is a seriousness
Of purpose and an engendered
thoughtfulness about the comedy that
strike their lessons deep into the
hearts Of those that see the clay.
which is one Of the most successful
klaw & Erlanger have ever present
ed under the aeg.s of their firm name.
Rebecca, the delightful heroine of
Mrs. Wiggins books, "Rebecca of
Sunnybrook Farm" and New Chron-
icles of Rebecca," is brought to life
and set before the public with all of
her charm and wistful tenderness, her
struggles, her sorrows, and her tri-
umpha The authoress has contrived
TO veer away from the usual order of
New England dramas in "Rebecca of
sunnybrook Farm" and instead of the
gloom and misery which are generally
there she has given us the abound ng
cheerfulness, story that touches the
heart and characters that grip the
imagination. Rebecca presents herself
as the golden-hearted, merry-faced
girl, trembling on the threshold of
womanhood, filed with the wonder of
life and its possibilities, overflowing
with the joy of mere existence. Her
pranks, her frolics, her trials are those
that come into the life of every girl,
and their reality gives the play its
value, its tremendous force and Its
drawing power. "Rebecca of Sunny
brook Farm had a run Of many
months in Boston at the fremont
Theatre, and in that capital of New
England 1t was acclaimed as a real
picture of the real New England peo-
pie. Afterwards the play was taken
into New York and for a year at
David Belasco's Republic Theatre 1t
crowded the spacious auditorium with
delightful audiences. The company is
headed by Edith Taliaferro, one of the
most experienced of the younger
American stars. A favorlte in New
ark, she has youth, beauty, fresh
ness and vivacity and enacts her role
with a fine, deft, delicate hand. Her
chief assistant in presenting the COM
edy Is Archie Boyd. Others in the
company are Marie L. Day. Eliza
Giassford, Ada Deaves. Viola For
tesque, Sam. Colt, Haywood CHM,
Edna Smedley and Leila Frost.
Matinees will be given Wednesday,
Thanksgiving Day and Saturday:

"WHITE SLAVE QUEEN"
AT JACOBS THEATRE

''The Queen of the White Slaves
will be the offering of the Klimt &
Gazzolo Stock Company at the Jacobs
Theatre next week. The play was
written by Arthur Lamb and is
based on a series of thrilling adven-
lures that befell a beautiful Ameri-
can girl and her sweetheart, who Is a
member of the United States Secret
Service.
These adventures are brought by
the Vaccinations of a branch OF The
"HiEnbinders," whose awful deeds of
crime have terrorized the Pacific coast
for many years. and while many have
been arrested in connection with the
crimes and brought to trial, 1t has
been impossible up to the pres Mt
time to secure a conviction, owing to
the dread the "Highbinders" are held
in this section of the country.
The play is one also that is full of
climaxes and the comedy Is good and
clean, and the play has had the repu-
tation of having the best line of COM
edy that has been written in a melo-
drama in some time.
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser., 1912-11-23

thrilling situations, the most famous
being the scene in the lighthouse,
where Martin attempts to prevent his
brother Nat from lighting the lamp
that will guide away from the rocks
the sloop in which Martins daugh-
ter is eloping. In desperate strug-
gle Nat overcomes his brother, but
the exertion has been so severe that
Nat can hardly muster the strength
necessary to carry him up the stairs
to light tile lamp. The boat is seen
ploughing through the raging sea in
the direct line of the treacherous
rocks, and just when disaster seems
certain, the lamp in the lighthouse is
seen to glimmer and burn. Affection
for his niece. the daughter of the
woman whom Nat relinquished in ia
vor of his brother, together with a
spirit of common humanity, has en-
abled Nat to put forth a final sue
cessful effort. The curtain falls on
the boat realizing the danger and
steering away into safe waters In the
last act Martin, alone and sorrowful
I'M his loneliness, is sitting grieving
when the door opens and his daugh-
ter enters with her infant child. How
Martins resentment melts under the
warmth of a natural love for his
daughter and the pride of finding
himself a grandfather Is handled
with such delicacy of treatment that
there will be few dry eyes at the Or
pheum when the final reconciliation
takes place. In the character in which
James A. Hearne made history Mr..
Lee Sterrett enjoys the opportunity
Of giving expression to all his great
powers OF Characterization. The part
is a big one, but it is not too big for
Mr.. Sterrett, and If for his acting
only the play would be worth going
miles to see. But Mr.. Joseph Cir
ards Interpretation of brother Mar
tin and Miss Mabel Brownell's delin-
cation of the daughter will also be
found very fine performances. and
visitors to the Orpheum next week
may look forward to triumph of
acting as well as to a masterpiece of
the playwright.
