PLAYHOUSE PLoTTlNcs IN JAPAN.

r APAN has a theatrical situation too. From a Toxic weekly,
The Far East, one gets a glimpse Of a state Of things in Japan

Toxic has two big theatres. The one, Teikoku, keeps thoroughly
,P to date, stands for all innovations and is constantly on the lookout
for new ideas. Even now its manager is in the United States studying
NV methods.
The other, the Kabuk, sticks hard and fast to the old traditions
anA conventions. II has also had all of the best and most reliable
motors. ~ t~'N -
A while ago the uptodate manager tried his hardest to buy
~R three Of the most popular actors of the old-fashioned house.
dssst psrleyings went on, but in the end all the Kabuki actors got
together and agreed to stand by the old theatre.
The manager Of the new theatre was furious but not discouraged.
Ia Kabuki has a wonderful orchestra, the members of which belong

ROWDIES IN THE MAKING.

rIHE annual report Of the City Magistrates, while showing a
decrease Of 10000 arrests from tho preceding year, dwels
with grave emphasis on that "menacing army Of young men
m boys between sixteen and twenty-five who are the most trouble
ssme element VIC have to deal with-without reverence for anything,
devoid of respect for the law, subject to no parental control, cynical,
Ndously wise beyond their years, utterly regardless Of the rights OF
other, firmly determined not to work for a living, terrorizing the
occupants of public vehicles, disturbing the peace Of neighborhoods,
having no regard for common decency."
This is a true and unsparng characterization Of a type everybody
h New York sees only too often in public places. last year We made
spsiai efforts to drive him out Of trolley cars and trains-with con-
Siderable success.
But the worst Of this class is that Il is constantly being recruited
h~n6ounger boys, who begin by merely being frolicsome and NOISY
hepu61ic places, grow holder and harder as they grow older, and
eventually become ful-nedgcd rowdies or criminals.
They arc difficult to deal with. They spring from conditions
hard to readjust. The public, however, has one rod for them which
k too often forgets to use.
One frequently sees half a dozen young boys in q trolley car or q
park deliberately behaving like animals solely to attract attention and
thov o." Too often older people sitting by smile and smoker and
vsAsh with interest This is just what the boys want. They redoutlc
tASf efforts. Out Of this class grow hoodlums.
Plain disgust or Indifference would go some way at least toward
Hsoouraging beginners in this sorry class. Nothing kills like contempt.
