A CHANCE FOR TEACHERS.
Utah Unable to Supply the Demand
Without Importations.

WlLnUuL III DD4 LdL4Uubs
The demand for school teachers in the
district schools throughout the State is so
great that IL is next to impossible to I'll
the vacancies existing at the present time,
and II is thought By some that next year
almost the same condition will exist.
The principal reason for this state Of
affairs is that the State board Of examiners
is now compelled TO give uniform exam
inauons FOR all desiring 20 obtain certif-
Gates for teaching. Before this was done
there were many girls with not more than
an eighth grade education teaching in the
district schools. whose places were conse-
quently made vacant by the legislative
act Because Of this decrease in the num-
Der Of teachers the public schools are be-
ing conducted with a force entirely In
adequate to the large number Of school
children, and are being greatly hampered
10 the promotion Of education throughout
the state Another unfavoTable condition
is that many OF the teachers in the cOun-
ties are holding their positions by tenn
poTary certificates, which IS allowable
when the places cannot be filled with
those who have secured a regular ceTtin-
cate. The reason that these latter are en-
ployed Is that the schools would not draw
their portion of the public fund If school
sessions were not held.
1t Is said b. those most interested in
educational work that even with the large
number Of students who viii be graduated
from the state normal school this year,
tho demand for teachers which yili Ger
tainiy exist next yeaE cannot possibly be
supplied. as there IS a continuous increase
Ga the amount Of work done iE re schools
Consequently it is thought that many out
side teachers Will come 10 Utah. - Salt

 It is claimed that the formation or a Civic Federation for the administration of public charity for the aesthetic i'm proVement of the city and for the ad- Vancement of education has been long needed in Montgomery, and many Of the most prominent people have determined to organize such q Federation and to use their utmost endeaVors to make 1t a sue cess.
