PAGE SIX —SECTIOIf TWO ; SCHOOL AND YOLK CHILD 1 By John Corey. Appalachian Slate Teacher* College 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.

I 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 o establish efficiency and safari I Plants & Shrubbervli j FOR SALE ji Cabbage Plants j j § Early Jersey Wakefield And I' j Asgrow Early Round Dutch I j i Steel’s Jumbo Pansies in! { mixed and .separate colors,!

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.” tj ! -> w “Thr secret of a man who is universally interesting is that he is universally inter csted.” We offer a service lhat ut cap able and sincere equipment that is modern an under standing lhat cares gracefully for all details. , Spumepal Move 1 no <v al.B£mapusr rsti'iftl tOENTON, N C. 24 HR^VcT MUTUAL Burial association &C.

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.

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 Continued on Page 7—Section 2 1 HAPPY HOME PENTECOSTAL i HOLINESS CHURCH HAROLD C.
