Another twisting of the triangle, re
ferred to generally as- eternal or In
evitable because It is bo usual and to be
expected, is tri-angling- at the Baker
this week. "The Hawk," which William
Faveraham presented in the East is being-
presented with, distinction, by the
Alcazar players.
Albert McGovern Is appearing in the
Faversham role, as one of the angles
In the triangle. He is De Dazetta. the
husband, an Hungarian who has drifted
into gambling for big sums to supply
the whims of an extravagant wife,
whom he loves devotedly. He is called
the Hawk because, like the hawk, he
swoops down on his prey.
A second angle in the triangle Is
Marina, the wife, vain, a bit selfish
end wholly unthinking.
The third angle Is formed by Tler
rache. a Frenchman, who falls in love
with Marina and whose departure from
the usual cut-and-dried path of the
third party is a bit novel. Tierrache
turns out to be fairly honorable and
decent about his poaching on another
man's preserve, and it is this code of
almost morals that gives the new twist
to the events that transpire.
Wife la Reformed.
There is another story, too, running
around the triangle. It has to do with
De Dazetta's gambling, and that Ma
rina helps him to cheat and fleece the
lambs she lures to the poker table.
After she meets Tierrache her reforma
tion begins and she refuses to go on
at the cards. Then it is that her hus
band learns of existing conditions and
leaves her to Tlerrache.
The story could end here, and many
similar triangles have their ending at
this sort of a point. But Francis di
Croisset, who wrote the play, has made
his heroine of sterner stuff and De
Dazetta a rather worth-while figure.
Bo the nearly erring wife and her hus
band are brought together in happy re
union at the iast curtain, and Tierrache
takes up life with a new viewpoint.
The play has a foreign flavor. Its
names, its people, its very atmosphere
and situations are foreign. It holds
very little comedy, and at times is
highly dramatic.
Character Work Is Fine.
Mr. McGovern as the husband gives
a fine piece of character work. His
"dope" scene and renunciation scene
with the wife near the close of the play
are Intense.
Kuth Gates does some splendidly ef
fective work as the wife. She makes
the role mental rather than physical
but is a picture and appeal to the
censes in her glowing good looks, set
off by wonderfully attractive gowns.
Henry Hall, who is a favorite lately
returned, gives a fine account of him-
eelf as Tierrache, the other man."
The entire cast supports these three
In such an excellent manner, with ad
ditional folk in for one of the scenes
a colorful amateur theatrical rehearsal
In a country home.
"The Hawk" will continue all week.

day.

SACRAMENTO. Feb. 25. fSDeclal .1
Rains of the past week have melted
much of the snow In the mountains.
This has caused the rivers in the Sac

risen .04 of a foot since noon. The
river became 'stationary at this point
tonight.
Redding reports the big storm abated,
with no great amount of damage, al

lands and small streams were running
out of their banks. The precipitation
at Redding was, pechaps, the hardest
ever recorded there, the amount of
water falling for Uhe part 24 hours
being 4.2 inches.
The Western Pacific is tied up be
cause of a washout at Paxton and a big

Absolutely Removes
Indigestion. One package
proves it 25c at all druggists. .
YOUR children are two, three or four of millions of children. Of
course, "they are different," because they are your children.
That's what we parents like to think about them. But let's face the facts.
Do you realize that only about one child in a thousand ever grows
to be more than "just ordinary"? .
Do you realize that only one in 50,000 ever rises to pre-eminence
in any particular vocation?
There are 20,000,000 children of all ages In
the United States about 1,000,000 more boys
than girls. Of the total, 3,250,000 are 15 to 17
years old, which is a most important period
in their lives.
Are yon preparing your children to take
their chances among these millions? Are
yon giving your boy or girl the educational
advantages that are the means to success?
School training is not sufficient Life's
problems are not worked out through abstract
theories, but through a broad knowledge
plus the ability to think and reason and do.
Give your children a chance to acquire prac
tical information on subjects connected with
real life.
Give them an opportunity to find out for
themselves what they are ambitious to do.
Remember, a child's natural inclination is a big
determining factor in a successful career.
Therefore, you should own the new Encyclo
paedia Britannica for the good your children
will derive from it Nothing you may do for
them will go so far to keep them out of the
"just ordinary" class of men and women
because a Britannica training is insurance
against ignorance. It means knowledge, which
is the source of success in life.
Don't make the mistake of thinking that the
Britannica "isn't for children." It is which
is further proof of the'many-sidedness of this
marvelous library of facts and information.
The Britannica Is not uvenlle" Iltera
ture, but It appeals to the interest and
Imagination of active-minded boys and ,
girls. It not only gratifies their curiosity
and answers their multitude of questions,
but it stimulates and promotes an earnest
desire for practical, usable knowledge.
It will help them with their schooHvork
for it supplies the "human interest" that isn't
found in dry-as-dust text-bpbks;.it supple
ments facts-to-be-memorized with a vast fund
of equally important information . which is
never forgotten. !; A '.
. '':
Every child should be educated to do that
for which be has a natural aptitude, a posi
tive inclination. But bow can you tell your
child's bent, you ask ?
Here, again, the Britannica will prove its
value, for your child will follow his (or her)
inclination in his (or her) Britannica reading.
If your children go to college, they will need
the Britannica. If you canfiot send them to
college, then the Britannica will afford the
means of self-education at less than 125 the
cost of a college education. It is doing this
very thing now for thousands.
Dr. Eliot, President Emeritus 'of "Harvard,
bought two sets of the new Britannica for his
"two sets of grandchildren." "He said:
"I find the work altogether admirable; and
my grandchildren, who are at' the most in
quisitive ages, are of the same opinion."
Miss Ellen C. Lombard, of the'United States
Bureau of Education, says:
"Every home in the United States should
be provided with this complete guide."
Arthur Brisbane, the highest paid editor in
the world, says:
"It is really a misfortune for. a family to
grow up without the Encyclopaedia Britan
nica. . . . The reading of -every serious
book should be done with the Britannica at
hand. To develop the habit in.chijdren would
be of the greatest possible value 'to; them."
Thousands of parents have' bought the
Britannica primarily for the educational ad
vantages it affords their chflcnVoixYour chil
dren need it and you owe itJojiUm.; Because
What the Britannica will do
" for your Boys and Girls
It will make school work easy, interesting and
doubly profitable.
It will show them the connection between
school work and real work, why it pays to
learn lessons.
It will train them to ase their minds, think
accurately and reason keenly.
It will provide them with & teacher for any
subject they wish to study.
It will tell them what there is to learn, the
problems scientists are trying to discover and
the world is waiting to know.
It will tell them what there is to do, what
men and women are doing all over the world
the work that needs to be done.
It will show them the, easiest and best way to
do whatever they choose to do the short cut.
It will save them making the mistakes others
have made. It will tell them the methods used
by the successful.
will give them ideas and initiative.
It will stimulate them with stories of what
others have done.
will cultivate their taste for reading the best
books and make them dissatisfied with any
thing else.
It will give them an interest in the world of
Nature.
will give them self-confidence and courage.
It will make home the most interesting place
in the world and give the family interests in
common. '
it is part of your duty to give your boys and
girls every possible advantage.
You can't say you "can't afford it" because
at present prices, the new Britannica is the
cheapest book in the world. It is equivalent
to a library of 440 books of 400 pages each,
which, if you paid $1.50 a volume (the price
of popular novels), would mean $GG0. You
can buy the new Britannica printed on the
superb India paper and bound in "Handy
Volume" form for as little as $74.70 (cloth);
or $90.75 in full leather (sheep); $104.40 in
three-quarters levant; or $117.55 in full
morocco.
Or you can buy it (and have the entire set
shipped immediately) for only $1, the balance
payable in small amounts ($3.00 to $4.50,
according to binding) for a limited period.
But you must not delay this is your last
chance to own the Britannica printed on
genuine India paper. War has cut off the
supply of raw material out of which genuine
India paper is made the sets of the Britan
nica now on hand are the last
