In Conclusion.
The great majority Of the teachers of the county
have always given the institute loyal support. We
greatly appreciate this and this year hope to have
every teacher in the county and many who
pectng to teach in the future enroll and attend
ery,day. Do not think because you teaching in
the graded schools, because you have attended
number of institutes and hold first grade certificate
that you will not get any benefit from the institute
and that is not necessary for you to attend The
patrons of your school do not think that way and
they have right to expect you to prepare for your
work. Audubon county ranks among the first in the
state in point of salaries paid teachers We want to
keep it there and if you expect to do you must not
neglect any opportunity for improvement We will
again have the of the splendid High School
building and will have every facility for holding the
best institute held in the county. Plan your
work SO you can be present the first day and remain
through the entire session If you expect to teach
this county your duty to do this Very truly yours
