Romances Of Progress
By Albert Payson Terhune
SOCRATES-The Man Who First TAUGHT PEOPLE to Think for

Themselves.

"If you made a slave dress and live
as you do he would run away!"
sneered rich Athenian. And the
man he addressed was one of the first
and greatest of Progress-M akers-Soc-
rates.
This sage, who revolutionized re-
ligion. thought and education, looked
more like comic-paper hobo than a
genius.
Socrates was the son of statue
seller and learned his fathers

gods who were supposed to inhabit

lives and who blessed or cursed man.

moment. To these gods the Athen-
ians erected affairs. made sacrifices
and supported a body of priests.

vilest of human beings. 1t is impos.
sible that the world can be governed
by such dieties."
Yet he saw that some ruling force
controlled human destiny, and he be-

with luck in war and business.
But Socrates did not stop there. He
attacked the narrow. stupid system OF
education In vogue In Athens and
sought to rebuild It on broader. more
modern lines. adapting the vague. alb
stract facts to practical value and
teaching youths to think for them
selves. He was. In way, the founder
Of modern education. He also assailed
municipal graft and incompetence
and tried to show his fellow Athen
ians their duty toward the state. II wa,
largely due to his opposition that the
tyrannical council Of thirty. who ruled

Instead Of dieting or taking medicine.
he sacrificed . sheep or an OK to his

not improve the condition Of his liver
or digestion. he took Il - sign that

He furthermore lived in abject pow.
erty that he might teach others to
think more of the mind and soul than
of the body. Rousing peoples dor
mant minds. teaching them to think
for themselves. fearlessly rebuking
public injustice and superstition, he
gathered about him so many disciples
and admirers that the government be-
came seriously alarmed. Prosecutions
and i'll treatment became his reward.
Not the least Of these came upon him
at home. He was married to a shrew
named Xantippe, who could not in the
very least appreciate him and who by
her seedlings and beatings made his
life a daily burden. He bore all this
with the patience OF true philoso-
pher. But worse was in store for him.
The tyrannous council OF thirty
whom he had so often assailed had
not molested him. 1t remained for the
popular democratic government (Which
he had helped to restore) to arrest
him and bring him to trial for his life.
He was accused by the authorities with
denying the gods. preaching the exis.
tence Of a new God and Of corrupting
the young by his teachings. Socrates
replied in effect
that he had mere

the city should honor and pension
him.
This speech naturally did not serve
to pacify his judges, who next tried
to frighten him with threats Of death.
