Good Whisky should be old and thoroughly matured in wood. This is

and ex-President Wilson. His study WONG SIU WOON guaranteed by the above who are the

observed," was made at the Paris Peace! Conference in 1919. M. Clemenceau he described as a man of overwhelming energy, vitality, courage, ruthlesmans, humour, and quickness of perception. Eis glowing, restless eyes were an index of his character, but his chief defect was his inability to work with others on equal terms, and his intolerance of opi- nions with which he disagreed. Mr. Lloyd George in some respects resembled M. Clemenceau He had the same ex traordinary energy and vitality, the anime gift of humour and quickness of perception, but, nulike M. Clemenceau, he was not ruthles and bitter, and he' delighted in compromise. Ex-President Wilson differed widely from both M. Cle menceau and Mr. Lloyd George, for, while he had energy and driving force, he Backed their quickness and ready powers of argument. It was easy to see that his stuperdons labours were likely to break hir, which they did. It was clear also that he had not the gift of working with with or making use of other people. When, for instance, the celebrated. Prin- tipe memorandum was agreed upon Mr. Wilson offered to prepare it. Thereupon he sent for his typewriter, and, much to the surprise and amusement of his collea gues, sat down and typed out the docu ment as if he had been a typist at 3 a week instead of the ruler of 110,000,000 people.

THREE GREAT FIGHTING MEN.

"Some critics describe him as vain," added Lord Riddell. "He's an Amer ican" came a shout from the gallery amidet laughter. Well, even for an American," retorted Lord Riddell, "but I would not say he was vain; I would rather describe him as egotistical and pragmatical. For the three great fight. ing men Marshal. Foch, Earl Kitchener, and Earl Beatly were selected. The first- named Lord Riddell summarised as being a mand possessed of a simple, direct mind, with great powers of imagination in mili- tary affairs, and great obstinacy of pur poss. The late Lord Kitchener had energy, vision, and ideas, but latterly, his lordship aid, he formed the opinion that he was no longer a great' organiser) At times he was mentally very active, at others he seemed dull and inert, due, no doubt, to the effects of the English cli- imate upon a man who had lived so long in hot countries Lord Beatty's face told them what he was. His keer, tushing, restless eyes showed him a daring spirt, but he had other great qualities and a thorough knowledge of his profession. Lord Leverhneme was included in the trinity of great business men. He is a typical captain of industry;" commented Lord Riddell He is a firm believer in the idea of the business hierarchy, with genius at the top, ub-geniuses in the middle, and well-paid and well-nurtured workers at the base. He has a' strange combination of ideals, practical common- sense, and what is euphemistically called business acumen,

The political trinity was made up of the Earl of Balfour, Mr. Asquith, and Mr. Bonar Law. Earl Ballour, said Lord Riddell, was imperfectly understood. He was generally regarded na an amiable, learned man, whose strong patriotic tend encies had enabled him to overcome da indolent disposition. That was a com2 plete fallacy. Earl Balfour was an invet- erate worker, with a keen, subtle mind. but above all his charming manders ho had a spirit like highly tempered steel. Equanimity was one of his strong points, and as a political strategist he had 'fow equale. Mr. Asquith's method of speech. was the index of his mind--orderly, clear. |and logical-but be Jacked initiative and driving pwer. Mr. Bonar Law's menta lity was primarily that of a businessman. He was essentially practical and inclined to a cautious, critical point of view, Someone had described him as "mildly ambitions. Perhaps that was a good description. No man ever took up public life, or needed in it, without a certain amount of ambition, but Mr. Bonar Law's aspirations were, not of the glow; ingly enthusiastic kind. In some mild sure he had had greatness thrust upon him, but he had always proved equal to the occasion. "I should call him an un impassioned idealist," commented Lord Riddell, "with a keen eye to the realities of the situation. When he looks at the landscape he does not overlook the worm carts." Other personalities which camd within the purview of Lord Riddell's ora. tion were Lord Pirrie; Lord Inchcape, Sir William Orpen. Sir Charles Sherring. ton, Mr. H. G. Wells, General Botha, Mr. W. M. Hughes, Premier of Australia, and General Smuts.

Viscount Haldane, who presided, proposed

vote of thanks to Lord Riddell, and said their orator had wisely refrained from all re ferences to the judgment displayed by the characters in his most interesting speech, and the subject had been the more interesting because he had been - talking from his own obscrvations at close quar- ters, and in very close relationship,, made at some of the greatert gatherings the world; had" seen in resent times..
