few words of encouragement to
stimulate them in the effort.
Taking the case we referred to, the
Blade, after giving such personal ad .
vice deemed essential under the cir
cumstances, suggested to the young
lady that as she wished to enter the
ranks of Freethought writer's, to make
an effort, start, and that no time was
better than now The result Of this
may be found in these columns and
through it another volunteed soldier in
the ranks of Liberalism goes marching
under our banner.
The circumstances are both signifi-
cant and suggestive. We know not
how many may be longing for similar
oppo tunity. If you have talents use
them. LII you have a mind capable
of thought, give it room to expand an
opportunity to develop. Opportunities
do not go on hunt for persons, but
men and women must search for the
opportunities.
The Blade welcomes it's young and
brilliant thinker to its columns and as
experience increases knowledge and
ability we have every reason to be-
lieve that Freethought will profit
largely by her debut as writer and
worker in our cause.
Blue-grass blade., 1908-03-15
POLITICAL CHRISTIANITY.

The sole hope of the Christian church
in America lies in special legislation
designed for its own protection and
furtherance.
Some of the legislation may be use
full and beneficial to others than Chris
tians, although it is well recognized
fact that much of it is harmful, the
bulk being signally aimed at those who
oppose the church and. intended to
stife criticisms complaint and more
progressive movements.
To that extent wherein the intended
legislation may be known to be cap
able of comforting a boon upon some
people, and of no direct or remote
injury to others, Freethinkers can well
afford to pass it up with Indifference,
but in every direction where proposed
legislation is known to be for the sole
benefit Of the church and church peo-
pie, to the detriment or injury, of
those who do not favor the church or
it's teachings, then it is our bounden
duty, duty we owe ourselves and our
neighbors, duty we owe to our chill
dren and to all underneath posterity,
to oppose that legislation to the fullest
extent of our capabilities.
Incapable and incompetent as a
moral teacher, the church grows ever
more militant and assuming. BY
working upon the religious prejudices
and passions of the politicians, who
ever seek popular favor, they plot and

WHAT A KIND WORD CAN DO.

Manly ucdTJ Has ldlleu Ill lllc
work for the need of little encour-
agement, a few kind words to strength
en- and cheer, and humanity will never
be able to fully know what the world
has lost from this cause alone
The inquisitive child is freQutnely
discouraged from asking questions by
its parents. Annoying, perhaps, and it
may be true, but the inquisitlvcness
suggests originality and above ALL a
desire to learn something, to know AS
a rule the orthodox Christian believer
is not inquisitive. The spirit Of in
quiry was probably crushed out in its
infancy Orthodoxy accepts on faith
1t does not want to know and seeks
not he why and wherefore of things.
When child asks a question, trivial
as 1T may seems to its parents, it. is
entitled to a respectful and consider
ate answer. If the parent is unable
to impart the information sought,
franwly admit it and be honest with
the child. Don't assume that you
know but that it is not meet to make
the child acquainted with the fact
Of course there are things children
may inquire about that cannot be ex-
planned and in this relation only should
care be exercised.
In another column of this issue will
be found an article by Miss Dora
Buckholz, of Iowa. This is her first
literary effort and those who persue it
will be compelled to admit that it is
an excellent start Our advice had
been previously sought upon the sub
ject, the young lady expressing de-
sire to work for the cause Of Liberal
ism and Humanity, not in the antici-
patton of emOlument or profit, other
than to be of some benefit, some use to
the cause. In her communication she
admitted that she had never ventured
into journalistic work, but WAS NOT
AFRAID TO TRY.
The entire situation is summed up in
those few words which we have CAPT
talizel How much talent has been
dimmed for lack Of just little en-
enlargement What pages have been
lost to history by hesitation and de-
lay? Who, being cast into deep water
and unable to swim, would be afraid to
try? Would the crowd be considered
helpful by standing on the bank and
calling to the struggling man to give
up the fight? Would not few words
of encouragement to keep moving be
of both strength and cheerY Then the
same rule applies to human life AMI
whenever we perceive human being
to keep up, impressed with
a desire to be something, to do some
thing, extend helping hand and add

speculative of the rights and privileges
of others. From such cause comes
the Sunday laws, sabbath observance
laws, bible reading in public schools,
exemption of church, property from
taxation, the support of chaplains in
the army and navy, appropriations for
this or that scheme in which the church
alone is interested, and all prohibition
laws. These are essentially religious
enactments. Their PRONUNCIATION is in (
tended and specially designed to securd
legal recognition Of their own rights
and privileges, on the mere ground
that they are Christians, and the
clergy strive to keep up the interest
by political sermons instead of preach
ing the gospel pure and simple.

ing guard at the polls, all for the al
legged glory of god when he is simply
after a personal nOtOriety and ag-
grandizement We all know that
water and oil will not mix You may
shake them up until there is an APP
parent mixture but they will adjust
themselves if left alone, each to their
kind. SO it is with religion and poll
ties. They are incapable of an adj
mixture. If religion is g. good thing
by itself it becomes bad the moment
it is mixed with modern American
politics. If religion is a bad thing to
begin with then it becomes worse after
making political combination. But
modern Christianity is a political re-
ligion. There is no such thing as re-
ligious politics. Religion should be
made a tie to bind society, whereas
politics is too well know for its sep
arative proclivities. Political parsons
are curse to any community. 1t is
but a seeking after temporal power,
needed as a sort of compensation for
the loss of all spiritual power over
the people. Parsons naturally love
power as a duck loves the water It
comes natural to the profession. No
power, poor parsOn. Much power, bet
ter parson. Loss of power in one d.
rectiOn compels them to turn to seek
it in, another and realizing the pas
sions of the people are easy to trade
upon, they turn to politics as a medium
of exchange.
Within the past few days this city,
Lexington, has been notified by one,
l. j. Spencer, of the Campbellite per-
suasion, pastor, ETC., that he purposes
to enter politics IN the future contests
in an effort to get at a system of puri-
fication. While it is plain fact that
