THE PIRATE HUB. .
Lord Nerthelife's death evphe personality and romantic career. Mr. T. P. O'Connor, "MP., writing in the Daily Telegraph what I regard as the best memoir that has appeared exeqerthat in the Times, says Lord Northchiffe was so poor when he was engaged in free-lance journalism at the age of twenty that he used to walk from Clapham to Hempstead, where his people lived, because he could not afford the coppers required for payment of the fare. He was in lodgings, and the pilgrimage to Hampstead was made on Sun- day, mainly because he was sure of a good meal once a week by going home. If this is not an exaggeration—the kind of legend that grows ronid every man who has had an extraordinary arter-it shows what a wonderful achievement it was for the young Harmsworth of those daye, less than forty years ago, to leave won world-wide fame in the calling of his adoption and also wealth "beyond the dreams of avarice."
The Fraisu bestowed upon Lord North>| cliffe by his old assailants in the Press is generous to a degree. But the point is very rightly made that his success was due to re- alising what the section of the public who do not think wanted, and then supplying that want. There are vast numbers who like to, have their thinking done for them, and it' was to those that Northcliffe appealed in the scores of papers be brought out in bewildering succession from the outset He knew A diverting comely, is being, plared in of bis journalistic career..
