"But what books do you class among your favorites?" asked the interviewer.
 When I was a young man," answered the banker, q was intensely interested in the tales of Robert Louis Stevenson. also was absorbed in the wonderful narratives of Jules Verne. Today 1 think I like best of all the short stories of Kipling. Richard Harding Davis and 10. Henry did splendid work. and our friend, William Allen White, out at Elm poria, Kan, used to write corking good stories-for instance. The Court of Boy ville.' The same can be said of Booth Tarkington and other American writers who are equally entitled to fame.
 T enjoy nothing so much as do poetry, and while the new movement Tn art started by the cubists and futurists makes me boil with anger, I have really never found anything quite so fine as the new poetry. Every now and then l run across poetry that has remarkable quality. Poets of today have got far away from the monotonous old jingles. They are creating imagery now with the fineness of canoes. Usually the picture is in single sentence, sometimes sug- gested by single word"
 The book campaign has started off glo- |riously in Birmingham. Director David
