He belongs to Keble College, - The President's chair is one of the Union's proudest possessions; Gladstone sat in it, over a century ago, when he was President of the Oxford Union; among other illustrious ex-Presidents-holders of that office which is regarded as a springboard to public life - are Curzon Birkenhead, Dr, Temple, the present Archbishop of Canterbury.
