LLOYD GEORGE'S
PASSION FOR READING
Spells Great Part of Each Day Reading
Newspapers and Books.
London. Sept. 29.—N0 inconsiderable
part of the luggage- which Air. Lloyd
George is taking with him when he sails
today to begin his long-anticipated visit
to the United States and Canada consists
of several large parcels of books and tlfe
latest isshes of British and Continental
magazines, with which the former Pre
mier expects to beguile the time during
the voyage across the Atlantic. Without
something to read. Lloyd George would
he a miserable man. ,
Throughout his career he has been an |
inveterate reader. No matter what the
crisis—and his life lias been full of cri- j
ses—he seldom has failed to spend sev
eral hours of each day in reading official
papers, newspapers, or books.
Unlike Earl Balfour, who once confess
ed that he did not read newspapers. Air.
Lloyd George has a passion for them. He
is always atixious' to buy papers. If lie
hears a newsboy crying out the headlines
in the streets lie must buy a paper. News
papers of all classes and of all shades of
political opinion appear to be of equal
interest to him. Indeed, he is as avari
cious for news as some men are for rac
ing results.
During bis long tenure in the premier
ship. 7 o'clock in the morning found him
looking through the newspapers, while
the evening papers he read almost as
soon as they arrive. He delights in a
celebrated court trial just as much as
the ordinary individual, taking the keen
est inferest in the manner in which the
cases are conducted by the opposing coun
sel. He likes to point out what the
counsel might have said and wliat lie did
not say, or how well the counsel put his
'case, or how skillfully the witues evaded
the searching question. He has ail add
ed interest in such matters, no doubt,
from the fact that the law was his own
profession.
Whether in or out of office, lie has
made it a practice to read all important
political speeches. He likes to criticise
the speaker's methods and discriminate
between the good and ban passages.
Papers of all sorts—religious, secular,
and literary—interest him, except the
technical press. He lias never yet been
seen studying the pages of ail automobile
journal or any other of the so-called class
publications.
With regard to books. Lloyd George
always lias several at baud—nowadays
usually novels. Historical novels are
bis favorites, and he lias almost the pas
sion of a schoolboy for tales of adven
ture and daring, his favorite character
in fiction being Alan Breek, the hero
of, "Kidnapped," which lie has read many
tiling.
A$ to novels, "The Cloister and the
Hearth," he admits to having read six
or eigiit times in the course of his life.
He thinks it one of the most wonderful
novels ever written. .His favorite novel
ists are Dickens/ Scott. Dumas, Conan
Doyle, Robert Louie Stevenson, Bulwer
Lyttioii, Alayme Reid, Charles Reade,
Fenimore Cooper; Alary Johnston. Jack
London, Kipling. Stanley We.vnian, and
other-similarly vivid writers.
Apart from novels he lias -no favorite
books, except perhaps Macauley’s "Es
says"—one of the first books he read as
a boy. Stories of great battles, history,
travel, and biography interest him large
ly, while, although generally speaking;
lie takes no deligllt in English verse, he
still loves to read Shakespeare.
His knowledge of the Bible is far more
detailed than that of any other book,
which is no doubt due to his early train
ing and environm.'lit. - A real lover of
sermons, lie likes to read them as well
as hear them, nit'd is said to have re
marked that he would rather have been a
great preacher than prime minister-.
Goff, Taken at Hickory, is Carried to
