Goethe severed his connection with
the Weimar theater owing to the ap-
pearance Of an animal on the stage.
For twenty-seven years he ruled there
as a despotic director. THE direction

the least according to the demands OF
the public. Once for all understand
that the public must be controlled"
When at length he forbade any express
sions of approval or disapproval on the
part Of his public only the court and
the Jena students continued to attend
the theater.
The crash came when Duke Karl Au-
gust invited an actor who had scored
heavily with a performing poodle in
'"The Dog Of Montargis' to play ut
Weimar. After the first rehearsal ne

Japan csnsors Books.

In Japan the censorship Of novels is
not exercised by the libraries. but by
a government official who Is empower
ed to prosecute offending authors as
well as forbid the sale Of their books.
Not long ago the author of a japanese
novel called THE Great City" was
brought before the courts for giving
too realistic a description Of life in To-
kyo. His counsel used the old argu-
ments about the ~indefensible rights OF
literature and the ennobllng Of every
thing by art. But the case was given
against the author. Even some OF
Moliere's works have been forbidden
to circulate in Japan. the ground Of
offense being the lack of respect shown
by wives toward their husbands and
by s0n toward their fathers.
