What we call the laws of nature are in fact an attempt on our part to divine the will and purpose of God.

It is possible that the very success of the class in athletics has served as a blind to its true character. With so many to draw from, good teams might be put in the field in spite of an absence of general interest. Before drawing such a conclusion, however, we would suggest another possible explanation of this financial failure...
