Ii we are correctly informed Supt.
Mckee is making the statement in va
rioils parts of the county that Mrs.
Thornhy has no state certificate and
can not obtain one. Ii he is no more
accurate in school matters; than in tn, IS
statement he needs more knowledge
himself. The truth is that Mrs. Thorn
by had a state certificate when she was
teaching and is qualified to obtain one
at amy time she seeks one. When it
comes to ability and qualifications
Mrs. Thornby is unquestionably SUI
perior to her opponent.
