A THREADBARE platitude that religion is founded on the golden rule is nevertheless true in his case. He is described by his friends as an atheist. We have noted, in spite of this, a delightful weakness a re- spect for his Mother's religion, the universal one of his country. His theories take the line that religion has failed through the centuries, and its elements of avowed purification are today equal to its condition in its inception. There are examples of men who have reached the very pinnac...le of perfection and success, ignoring religious philosophy and frankly acknowledg- ing the impotency of the teachings of the church. The religious and state institutions are full of iniquity and injustice, and the odor of sanctity and diplomacy is wormwood to the highminded freethinker who so ardently and tenaciously urges decent principles. Such sustained hypocrisies make for the raison d'etre of his frank atheism. We have stated that we underestimated him, scorned his plans. Perhaps much of this was due to his personal appearance; not the usual Italian type, but almost effeminate, a type without distinct nationality; fair; blue eyes; a roached mane of waving iron-gray hair; that, with chiseled features and prominent forehead, gives him a composite likeness of Byron and Beethoven ; Side Lights 11 pale, except in moments of vigorous thought and action, when his features suffuse with the coloring of a healthy school-girl.
