personal supervision instead Of performing the duties Of clerk
they DO
Third grade certificates Of qualification should be alto
gether abolished raised higher standards The law for
establishing schools should be definite and left open for

meetings

in my Judgment the public school system is poor and
works badychehy think because, there is lack of super
vision of the schools the qualifications prescribed for teachers
third grade are low that grade should be abolished the
school session short public schools should be taught only
during the session If system is TO be obtained.
Public sentiment in this county is favorable towards public

There has been Improvement in the qualification of teachers
