A feature of this after-dinner reading
is the duchess diary. AS girl Princess
Victoria Louise was compelled by the
kaiserin to keep a diary-this on the
ground that diary-keeping means disci-
pline and regular habits. The diary is
still kept up. When the kaiserin at

brought two morocco-bound blank books
for the infants biography. The compil-

ginning to be one Of the chief domestic
interests of the Reconciliation pair
Outside family affairs, Duke Ernest
August's main interest lies in mastering
politics. This is more matter of duty
than of taste. Not having been educated
to rule a state. the duke has to make
up for lost time. In German opinion

Duchess Victoria Louise has brought to
them too much of home Her family
attachments and her marked individuality
of character are coloring in Prussian
spirit Brunswick court and society life,
and are influencing the strongly individu-
allied life of the Brunswickian people.
Duchess Victoria Louise is typical
Prussian. with the physical activity. the
wide range of interests, the love of chatter
and the acid humor of the traditional
Berliner kind. This has brought peace
full clashes with Brunswick. The Bruins
wickers boast more than any North Ger
man people-except perhaps the Macklen-
burgers-a national character. They are
conservative, well bred and out of date.
Brunswick women are known for pretty
faces and ugly clothes. They feel too
about dress Compared with Berliners
they are slow. To Princess Victoria
Louise, Brunswick has been almost as
new a world as If it were in foreign
fiuenced in a Berlin direction. The
duchess remains as before Berlner
kind.
Duchess Victoria Louise is an untiring
reformer. changer, meddler and moulder.
Immediately after she and her husband
were installed as sovereigns of Bruins
wick the court and palace life. as con-
quoted since 1871 Dy lHe regent Quke,
Johann Albrecht of Mecklenburg, was
radically changed in a direction opposite
to local expectations. Brunswick await
ed a reversion to the ceremonial court eti-
quette which f1ourished before 1884, when
the last Duke Of Brunswick died. Ven

Brunswick dinner etiquette" the limit of

duke comes into his own Instead, the
new sovereigns set to living in the sim
pie way observed by Prussias court on
all but ceremonial occasions. Brunswick
learned that the duke and duchess dined
in small room on an upper floor of the
schloss. and were attended at dinner by
a single servant. Simplifcation and
moderniZation were to be the rules of
the new court life.
Duchess Victoria Louises present pre-
occupation. interrupted temporarily by
the birth of the heir, is the moderniza-
ton of her own part of the schloss. Ex-
ternally the schloss. which was built in
1856. is modern enough. 1t is one Of the
