national decadence of the Orient has come
from it's exclusion.
In the present case the Jewish claim is
that it has lost a meinber in that woman
loses her nationality by marriage with one
of another nation, assuming that of her huss
band. The complaint, however, has been
made, on religious grounds only, but it is
barely possible that Miss Stern, being edu-
Gated to womanhood in Jewish thought, will
ever become a sincere Roman Catholic. She
may for the sake of domestic peace, profess
an outward federation of Catholicism, but In
her heart she will have nothing better than
a contemptuous Indifference for it. On the
other hand it is equally true that her husband
will never be inclined to celebrate any of the
Jewish festivals. FOR that same domestic
peace, if he loves his wife more than his
wifes money, he may profess some regard
for the rights of religions other than his
own, but he will never turn Jew. Then what
will be the result? This religious Indifference
will in all probability pass by inheritance to
their progeny and, reaching maturity, assert
an independence of all religious faith.
Both Jew and Gentle may continue to rave
at such marriages but the business will
flourish in spite of them.

Which is it to BET
Even at its best the modern orthodox
Christian church presents no clear notion or
arrangement OF ideas, save in a few non
essential fundamentals, and for the most part
is mere heterogenic body formed by
absorption.
Borrowing its precepts from the pagan
nations by which it's founders were sur
rounded, and assimilating social and political
customs wherever 1t went, the Christian
church, from the very day OF its
inception down to the present, has been but
an eclectic faith one made up of many
older faiths and parts of new faiths that
were calculated to aid in its propaganda.
Every Christian sect is a propaganda sect.
Each sect will as readily proselyte among the
members of other sects as they will work
upon and against the advancing intelligence
The aptitude, the church has ever dis
played for assimilation has been the cause of
its undoing the most potent factor in its

of any denomination to rail at interdenomi-
national marriages, or inter-marriages be-
tween races or congregations is as futile as
the tabled command of King Canute to the
waters of old ocean.
But short time ago, it will be recalled
Miss May Stern, daughter of Louis Stern,
was married to Baron de Graffenried. The
lady in the case was Jewess. Her husband
is a Roman Catholic. Rabbi Magnes, in
Sunday sermon, denounced the marriage
and the girls father promptly resigned as
president of the Board of Trustees, preferring
charges against the. Rabbi. The latter was
upheld by the church and Louis Stems quit
it altogether Since that time the incident
has been discussed by jew and Gentle press
and various comments have been made.
The Jewish press complains that inter
marriages tends towards the disintegration
of Jewish communities, as such. The Gentle
press insists upon the right of repatriation.
Persons who are Indifferent to all religions
can well afford to look with pity upon both.
History proves that exclusive race marri-

The Blade is not an advocate OF socialism
because it does not assume to know that II

evils. The Blade does know, however, that
many good and well meaning men and wo-

whether it is capable of proving remedy or
not these advocates are earnest in their be-

self a failure, a fatal error. Its priests are
paid to keep people quiet, to allay the feel
ing of public unrest to keep the multitude
in subsection to ne ruling classes or those
in authority. AS we understand socialism
it is protest against such conditions and as
such protest it cannot be in harmony with
the church. If the church ever expects and
hopes to appeal to the masses again, 1t must
lay aside its jewels, its splendor, its wealth.

which the church carries to mankind fails
to attract Men camor for justice and when
Justice reigns charity will disappear for lack
of cause or need.
There is, however, one view of the situation
that contains much of promise. If the church
should embrace and absorb the socialist move
ment there is a strong probability that
socialism would, ere long, become the whole
religion. Socialistic ideals are not in accord
with any of the principles of the orthodox
religion. Were such the case Socialism would
have found birth in the church instead of
outside. The movement contains more Free
thinkers more infdes, than believers, and to
them the principles of Socialism have become
a religious faith stronger than any built up
on theological platform. There is little
danger that Socialism will fall under the
dominion of the priesthood. AS rule
