Summer School fear Bright
’ Youngsters: They Lore It
Summar school used to be
catch-up .time for pupils who
for one reason or another drop- j
ped behind in studies during the
regular year. It still is, to some*
extent, but there’s a trend to
ward gearing the summer ses
sion to an entirely different stu
dent—<the* brighter one.
At many places across the
country anxious-to-learn young
sters jump at opportunities to
take non-required advanced |
courses during the hot summer,
months when they cou.d be tak- 1
ing vacations.
The students do this for no j
other reason, apparently, than to;
stretch their minds. What’s
more, they pay for the privilege,
which may shock some critics
who say youth have gone soft
and lazy. 1
Besides the main outcome of
aiding students to learn more,!
summer school offers certain
good byproducts:
—Scnool plants and facilities
which generally lie idle during
July and August are employed:
to good purpose.
—Experienced teachers can
work at their chosen profession
on a year-round basis.
—New teaching methods and
course materials can be tried
and tested in experimental fash
ion.
—Opportunity to observe and
participate in summer school
classes provides inexperienced
teachers with valuable orienta
tion before regular sessions start
in September.
Under leadership of Superin
tendent Francis V. Lloyd, Jr.,
the schools of Clayton, Mo., a
suburb of St. Louis, bean a
pioneer summer session f„r su- j
perior students two years ago. i
In the first year, 229 sei, • ted
students with an average It) of
136 (very high) attended the
summer school, called the Mark
Twain Summer Institute. They
came from 63 different schools
in metropolitan St. Louis.
The youngsters ranged in
grades from Bt.h to 12th, but
most were 11th and 12th grad rs.
They studied courses which of
fered the possibility of advanced
placement in college. Many .■ ,!-
jeges today participate in tire
Advanced Placement Program of
the College Entrance Exam illa
tion Board.
The Mark Twain Summer In
stitute offers English composi
tion, Russian, German, political
philosophy, mathematics, chem
istry, and biology. (Greek was
dropped because of lack of stu
dent interest).
Each pupil enrolls in one
course. The cost was $-11) the
first year but is now SSO. Class-j
es meet from 9 A. M., to 12:301
P. M. Only highly qualified!
teachers are employed.
Observers of the Mark Twain!
Summer Institute, which begins*
its third year this June. note,
that the St. Louis area students: |
—Demonstrate interest and'
ability in approaching really dis- ‘
ficult materials.
Quite often carry' discussions'
over beyond classroom time.
Maintain close, informal con
tact with teachers, who are con
sidered guides and advisers rath-!
er dhan disciplinarians.
—Enjoy the intellectual stimu
lation of working at an ad-,
vanced level—even during six
weeks of their vacation time. i
Attend with apparently no'
other motive than interest in ex
tending their range of knowl
edge.

Suffolk Area Tour
April 22 And 23
i ' v
! Sponsored by the Nansemond
River Garden Club of Suffolk,
Historic Garden Week will be
observed Saturday and Sunday.
, April 22-23. Highlighting the
1 observance will be a Suffolk
area tour which will include 10
i places of interest.
I Historically, Suffolk is identi-
I fied with the very beginnings
of colonization. In 1608 Cap
tain John Smith sailed up the
i Nansemond River and mapped
I tne area. A settlement made
the following year, when star
vation drove hundreds of colon
ists from Jamestown, was soon
abandoned because of constant
Indian attack.
i In contrast to this stormy
background of struggle and trag
edy, Suffolk and Nansemond
County find themselves today a
prosperous, growing community
on the threshold of a new era
of sound industrial and agricul
tural expansion in the heart of
booming Tidewater Virginia.
Snake Repellent
Now On Market
A new chemical called “Snake-
Stop,” which is said by its man
ufacturers to repel and kill
snakes, will be marketed from
Georgia headquarters on a world
wide basis.
The repellent was declared
successful about two years ago,
according to the inventor, Dr.
James 11. Jenkins, associate pro- 1
lessor of wildlife management at
the University of Georgia’s
school of forestry. Jenkins said,
however, it was not marketed
then because of continuing tests

j and the prohibitive expense of
chemicals used.
i Experimental progress indicates
that costs have been reduced to
I bring the product within reach
of the average homeowner or
camper.
A new corporation, called Ani-l
: mal Repellents, Inc., has been ■
formed to manufacture and dis-t
tribute the repellent on a world
wide basis. Headquarters will
be at Griffin, Ga., and Robert
D. Dixon will head the corpora
i tion.
The product went on sale in
th* United States and 12 foreign
countries around November 1 of
last year.
The chemicals in the product
have'a civet musk odor like that
of the snake’s natural enemies,
the mink and mongoose. There
are other chemicals included
which are deadly to the snake.
The product should be ap
plied to gardens, fields, lawns
and shrubbery in the ratio of
one pound per 420 square feet
of soil, Jenkins said. He said
experiments had shown that
snakes would not stay in an area
treated with the repellent.
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
Those attending Christian Sci
ence services Sunday will hear
1 a challenging call td overcome
! sin and sickness of every kind
through wholly spiritual means.
Highlighting the Lesson-Serm
on entitled “Are Sin, Disease,
and Death Real?”, is this Gold
en Text: “The kingdom of
heaven is at hand. Heal the
sick, cleanse the lepers, raise
the dead, cast out devils: freely
ye have received, freely give”
(Matthew 10).
One of the selections to be
read from “Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures” by
Mary Baker Eddy states: “God
is as incapable of producing sin, I
sickness, and death as He is
of experiencing these errors.]
How then is it possible for Him)
to create man subject to this
triad of errors man who is!
made in the divine likeness’”
(p. 356).
This verse will be read from
Psalm 145: The Lord is righte
ous in all his ways, and holy in
all his works.”

Sunday School Lesson
THE SOURCE OF TRUE
WISDOM
International Sunday School
Lesson for April 9, 1961.
Memory Selection: “If any of
you lacks wisdom, Ist him ask
God who gives to all men gen
erously and without reproach
ing, and it will be given him.”
(James 1:5).
Lesson Text: Job 28:12-28; Pro
'verbs 1:2-7; Ecclesiastes 12:13-14;
James 1:1-8.
The question for which we
seek an answer today is; How
is God the source of true wis
-1 dom?
The Books which we are
. studying today are classed as
the “wisdom literature” of the
Old Testament. This particular
part of the Old Testament dif
fers from the other parts be
cause it is not concerned with
history or prophecy, or even
I with religious piety, as such. It
is much more reflective, and is
closely related to man’s intel
lectual nature. Job deals with
1 the problems of suffering, but
his ultimate teaching is much
broader than this. The Book of

CjOD_
Job is the story of a man’s quest
for wisdom.
We all use the word "wisdom”
easily, attaching thereto our own
particular connatations. We say
inis acquaintance is Wise, this
one foolish, and let it go at
that. Yet “wisdom” means dif
ferent things to different peo
ple. To some, wisdom is ac
quired by education. Still oth
ers lean to the belief it is ac
quired by understanding. But
wisdom is fundamentally a mix
ture of a lot of things—educa
tion, understanding, experience
and religious beliefs.
Wisdom is truly found when
we go beyond the resources of
man to the infinitely greater re
sources of God. Only God un
derstands everything perfectly;
therefore, only God has perfect
wisdom. He is necessarily the
ußimate source of all wisdom.
This is what the Bible means
by its declaration “the fear 'of
the Lord is the beginning of
wisdom” (Proverbs 9:10, Pro
verbs 15:33; Psalms 111:10, and
Job 28:29).
It must be obvious to every
thinking Christian that the rea
son for wisdom’s source in God
is found in the role of God as
