An applicant writing for one grade
of certificate and failing to secure the
required standing for that grade may
secure one of the next lower grade if
standings are up to requirements for
that grade.
1t will be noticed that the require
ments for a certificate under the new
law are less rigid that have prevailed
in this county the past five years
No person who has contemplated writ
ing for a certificate should hesitate
because of the change in the law.
am of the opinion that the examina-
tions under the new law will be less
rigid than formerly, and the provi-
siOns for renewal, and for registra-
ton in any county of the state make
the privilege of holding . certificate
under this new law more to be desir-
ed than under the old law.
In order that / may plan properly
to accommodate all who expect to
write the examination next week l
would ask that any one who interds
