SHUBERT THEATRE.

A topical subject Of more than ordinary

theatre this week and if the remarks OF

ACTORS IN CHINA

The social standing of actors in China
is very low. In the eighteen grades OF
China's social caste they are placed at
the twelfth, which is lower than the posi-
ton immoral women or theieves occupy.
This is the natural outcome of their be-
ing ignorant and leading a questionable
life" a Pekin contemporary writes. But
there is a class of actors called w bsi
izu Imperial actOrs). These are kept on
salaries like ordinary officials and act
in the presence Of his majesty on the 4th
of every month.
They have great influence and often
defy even the command of the highest

BOOKS

DIFFERENT men have founded
their judgment OF nations and people
according to a different plan. Some
have said "show me the young men
and I'll tell you the future of the ma
ton" Tell me the company man
keeps and I'll tell you what he is
and SO they run. Tell me what man
reads and I'll tell you what he does"
Take Newark, for instsnce-what kind
of books are taken from her library
shelves?
At the town library SO far this
month, there have been borrowed 345
books in fction-about one-hari of
this number representing books from
the juvenile department.
Is there town in the State having
a finer collection of books of the bet
ter class than those found in our Kol-
lock Memorial collection? Therein
lies the value Of our library, the part
in which should rest our greatest
pride. Most OF these are written in
popular vein and in an interesting
style present all that is best in present
day interests.
Yet the number of these books in
constant use is SO small as to suggest
a lack OF appreciation that is shameful.
The reading taste may be matter
of development Do we have to admit
we are not capable of enjoying the
best?
High in the ranks of popular au-
thors, as recorded by the numbers on
the books are Chambers, McCutcheon
and Oppenheim. AS a part of mixed
diet such stories come with a relish,
but as sole reading supply no one
will contend that they are such as

The notice which is given their faith

In answer to the statement made
concerning Superintendent Spaid and

saying that said institute is illegal and
no teacher who is not possessed with

Spaid gives the following facts
The law quoted in proof that any
institute held outside OF the county is
illegal, was amended by the Delaware
Legislature.
This amendment, Volume Is, Chap
ter 81, of the Laws of Delaware, gives
each county superintendent the right
to hold a teachers institute anywhere
in Delaware. The idea in having the
law changed was that the teachers
might accept the invitation of Pro.es-
sor Carroll and combine with Kent
county this year.
This decision was left entirely with
the teachers, who gave unanimous
consent, realizing the advantages of a
larger institute with double the funds
to expend. Each year it has become
more and more difficult to secure in
