lis genuine. He has always been a
tower of strength in the worlds on
ward march.
Most OF our so-called education is
not education at all, but a hindrance
to education. There is no waste today
as profligate as our fetch of educa-
ton. A college president of very con-
servative and standpat religious and
political ideas told me that the reason
the people went wrong on so many
questions was because they hadn't the
trained minds of the college and uni
verslty men The good of a trained
mind depends very largely upon the
kind Of training. Not so very long ago
the trained minds of the colleges and
universities were quoting the Greek
and Sanscrit scriptures to prove that
slavery was divine institution In
fthis case the unframed mass of people
followed it's instinct and abolished
human bondage.
We have very high example of the
real free thinker in the philosopher
Descarte. He said:
AS soon as | was old enough to be
set free from the government of my
teachers ] entirely forsook what they
nad taught me. L was determined to
seek no other knowledge than that
which ] could discover within myself
or in the great book of the world.
spent the remainder of my youth
in travelling; in seeing courts and
armies; in the society of different
humors and conditions: in gathering
varied experience; in testing myself
by the chances of fortune, and in
always trying to profit by my reflec-
tons on what happened And I always
had an intense desire to learn to dis
tinguish truth from falsehood, in order
to be clear about my actions and to
walk sure-footedly in life
Like Ben Franklin and Goethe, the
philosopher Descarte was at home in
the world, and was of it as well as
in it.

. the world. The finest tribute Emerson
! paid to Goethe was that he was al
home In this world" He was part
of it. He was not only in it, but he
was of it. The man who is merely
in his house, but not of it, is the
! fellow who sleeps by getting in the
| hay and eats by feeding his face"
| The truth is that neither man nor
animal nor plant can live in this world
| and not be of it. A mineral might
say: Il admit that | am in this arith
metical calculation, but l am not OF
it." When the time comes so that q
mineral can be in an arithmetical
problem, acted upon by other integers
and acting upon them, and not OF it,
the universe must collapse, for no unit
or integer or cell, whether man. plant,
or monkey, can escape it's component
part unless dead, and even then there
is no escape, for absolute destruction
or humiliation is an impossibility.
There is no death, what seems SO
is but transition" @ "a
Bronson Alcott once said that the
actually is the thingness of the here"
A wag explained that the actually
is the hereness of the thing" It is
the hereness of the thing that prevents
us living in the world and not of it,
or living to ones SELF" as Hazlitt
puts it, and says:
Il never was in better place or
humor than l am at present for writ
ing on this subject. have a partridge
getting ready for my supper, my fire
is blazing on the hearth, the air is
mild for the season of the year, and
l have had but slight fit of indiges-
ton today, the only thing that makes
me abhor myself. l have three good
hours before me and therefore l will
attempt it. l may as well do it at
once as to have it to do for a week
to come"
The roasting partridge, the blazing
fire on his hearth, his freedom from
gastric troubles, and his three hours
of leisure all show that he was NOT
only in it, but decidedly OF it.
Hazlitt was trying to rid himself of
the worlds pressure. He was trying
to be free thinker" l do not mean
that sort of a phantasm and scare
crow the sensational preacher is for
ever condemning as free thinker"
in the same breath with free lover"
mean a man who is trying to think
freely, who has tried to throw off all
the harness and girths and saddles
of tradition and prejudice and wants
to enter the arena stripped for the
fray. It is impossible for the human
mind to think freely as long as it is
under the pressure of political, relgi-
ious and social prejudice. The man
who can utterly rid hia mind 0f cuch
and tradition, and of all pre-
conceived ideas, is the only being who
can dispense pure justice. Herbert
Spencer has pointed out that the great
obstacle to human progress is polit-
ical, theological, social and educational
bias If perfect love casteth out all
fear SO will perfect judgment cast out
all prejudice. In this sense the free
thinker occupies the highest ground.
He is of great and noble parts if he
