Scarcity of Teachers.
fSpecial Correspoudence.,


Pennington, June lot begins to
look like there will be a scarcity of
school teachers in Davis county this
year. This may be accounted for in
part by the fact that Superintendent
Porter has announced that none but
good teachers need apply. This year
forty-six teachers will be needed in the
county. Only twenty-five of those who
taught last year have been given GER
tificates to teach, and the teachers eX-
animation that has been held here yes
terday and today has been attended by
only eight prospective teachers. If all
of these pass a successful examination.
which is very doubtful, there will be
but thirty available teachers. Sixteen
more will be needed, and will have to
come from other places.
