MAHQUESS OF READING
RECITES PSALM IN HEBREW
That distinguished son of Israel, the Marquess of Reading, told a story the other week at the expense of his fellow guest, Lloyd George. It appears that the eminent statesman had given a speech in Welsh, and Lord Reading was called upon to reply. Not to be outdone, he recited the Ninety-third Psalm in Hebrew, the diners present mistaking it for a wonderful oration in the native language of the ex-premier.
Lord Reading, like most of us, was taught Hebrew in his youth, and his excellent memory had retained this particular psalm to be utilized with such witty effect perhaps half a century later.
And indeed the Hebrew language resembles Welsh in one respect. Like Welsh, it refuses to die, nay, it is gradually regaining its old vigor, whilst at the same time, it accumulates new riches of vocabulary and phraseology in the process of its phenomenal revival in modern Hebrew literature and speech.
Deputy Isaac Gruenbaum, of Poland, who came to the United States at th� invitation of the American Jewish Congress, sailed on the "Berengaria."
