Bahá’í Faith and Modern Science’ the better. There is no harm

Order, and not an American civilization. They must try and
introduce the Bahá’í atmosphere of life and thought into their
Summer Schools, rather than making the Summer School an
episode and a pleasant vacation period, during which they learn
a little more about the Faith.”
