morrow will say that for the first time in
the history of the Schuylkin arsenal in
this city there will be a suspension in the
work of making uniforms for the United
States army. 1t is understood that the Of
fetal order for the suspension of work was
received by the commandant of the arsenal
a week ago from Washington, and that
the notice TO the employees will be posted
this week. The effect of the order will be
felt by many widows of soldiers In this
city, as 1t means the laying off Of more
than 1900 women workers.
The schuylkill arsenal is the largest
mandatory of government clothing in the
United States. The cloth is cut at the ar
senaI and given out In bundles twice each
week to women for sewing. 1t is said that
the suspension is caused by an over-pro-
duction Of clothing.
The arsenal has just passed through
probably the busiest period ever known.
When the war with Spain broke out extra
hands were engaged until 1900 persons

Of Interest to Teachers.

b. . e. e
During the last session of the legis-
lature radical change was made in
the manner of issuing teachers GER
tifcates. The following is a synopsis
of the new law: &H
The State superintendent issues
State certificates for teachers, of the
first grade, valid not to exceed five
years, and OF the second grade not to
exceed two years. The State superin-
tendent marks the written examina-
tions as to scholastic qualifications and
the county superintendent marks the
professional qualifications. A COM
plete first grade certificate is good in
any county in the State. a complete
second grade certificate is to be good
in the county in which the examina-
tion is held and may be made valid in
any other county by the endorsement
of the county superintendent of that
county. Teachers must be of good
moral character. At least eight
months of successful teaching is re-
quired for the first grade and five
months for the second grade, and the
applicants must be at least eighteen
years of age, except that limited Sc
cond grade certificates good for one
year may be given by county super
intendent to applicants without exper-
fence, not under Il years of age who
have passed the scholastic examination
OF the State superintendent County
superintendent may also issue third
grade certificates upon their own ex-
animation, good for one year, good
only in designated district and not
renewable without examination nor
may teacher receive a third grade
certificate more than twice in the
same county.
Regulations for the renewal of first
and second grade certificates and for
fair review in case of appeals from the
decision Of the county superintendent
are to be fixed by the State superin-
tendent. The State superintendent
is to provide for at least two examin-
ations in each year in each county at
convenient place to be designated by
the county superintendent The time
for such examinations is to be uniform
throughout the State and the examin-
tions are to be conducted by the county
perintendents in accordance with
the regulations prescribed by the
State superintendent to secure uni
formity and fairness. Certificates of
any grade may be issued by the county
superintendent to such persons as pres
ent satisfactory proof of their inability
to attend, such certificates to be good |
only in a specified district and until |
the next examination. Complete first |
and second grade certificates shall be
valid in all grades below the high
school grade in special Or independent
districts. unless otherwise determined |
by the board Of education. Persons
who have taught five or more years in
the schools Of the State may have GER
tifcates from the State erintendent.
in his discretion, without examination,
upon application approved by the
board of education and city or county
superintendent under whom the appli-
cant shall have taught the greater
part Of the five years preceding the
