W. II. Johnson, is a candidate for the
democratic nomination for State
Superintendent OF Schools. 1t has
been long since Jackson County has
been represented on the State ticket.
This year the county will, ask for the
nomination Of State School Superin
tendent and offers a candidate 10
every way worthy and who IS State
superintendent will reflect credit on
the county and the state.
Superintendent johnson is not a
politician. He Is from the ground up
a school man. His entire life Tor
twenty years has been given to
educational work, and for eight years
he has been superintendent of the
county schools, The poorest paid office
in the county. Superintendent
Johnson was raised in Jackson
county. He began teaching as a
profession and, although tempted
many times to enter other professions
where the remuneration was greater,
has refused to do so, dcvotlng his life
to education. While principal at the
Oak Grove schools, be was appointed
county superintendent by Governor
Stephens and he's been reelected t.
the office every term since that time.
