First, that a new chapel be built—carried unanimously. Second. that the old chapel be used until the new one is ready—carried unanimously.

During the Great Depression in America, teachers enjoyed job security, good salaries, respectability. Teaching was an admired profession, partly because learning was widely recognized as the road out of poverty. Little of that is true today. Science particularly is too often incompetently or uninspiringly done, its practitioners, astonishingly, having little or no training in their subjects, impatient with the method, and in a hurry to get to the findings of science — and sometimes themselves unable to distinguish science from pseudoscience.
