Laymen Restore Theological School At Harvard Summer Session
Boston July 23 One of the greatest contributions against the irreligious trend is the reopening of a moribund theological school. The Unitarian Laymen's League funds a major share of costs, enabling hundreds of ministers to study religion and ethics at Harvard Summer School of Theology since 1910. Over 425 ministers from various denominations have attended, with 100 from Unitarian churches supported by the League's grant of 10,900 dollars for travel and living expenses. Leading ministers travel from across the country and Canada to participate in this revival of liberal religious instruction.
