Abstract/Notes: "SUMMER SCHOOL AT SAN DIEGO EXPOSITION. A vast pilgrimage of students, teachers and educational experts will invade the San Diego Exposition for attendance at the exposition’s summer hcbool to be held from July 5 to August 13. This promises to be without equal in the history of the progress of education, for the faculty will include some of the most remarkable authorities on education. Standing high in this list is Dr. Maria Montessori of Rome, founder of the famed system of teaching of this name. Dr. Montessori will assume direct charge of the Montessori Institute to be established during the session. Among the courses will be history and geography of South America, Spanish grammar and literature, modern history and the peace movement, modern literature, culture history, American archaeology, anthropology, vocational education and direction, mental and physical testing with laboratory work, elementary manual training and primitive arts with demonstrations by Indian workers, and agriculture with demonstrations. There will be special lectures on peace and conciliation, modern education, human welfaré and arts and science. To popularize the summer school the exposition directors have fixed the unusually low fee of $7.50 for the term, which will include admission to the exposition. Among the educators who will be in the faculty are Dr. J.C. Thompson, surgeon of the United States navy; Dr. Edgar L. Hewett, director of the School of American Archaeology; Percy Alvin Martin, Ph.D., assistant professor of history, Stanford University; Dean W.F. Bliss of the State Normal School, San Diego; Mariam E. Besley, William T. Skilling, and Maria Goddard, in addition to special lecturers. The remarkable ethnological exhibit by the Smithsonian Institution the ancient and modern Indian display, the commercial representation and the quite unprecedented agricultural and horticultural displays crowning the work in architecture equip the San Diego Exposition with extraordinary facilities for study. Practically all, moreover, is permanent, this being almost unique in world’s fair achievement."
