debtedness on the building had been
either paid into the treasury or sub
scribed. The church starts out On its
mission Of usefulness and good with

parallel in the history of Lexington

Rigid Enforcement Of School Law

C. Crabbe, Superintendent of Pub
lie Instruction, has received two opin-
ions prepared by Assistant Attorney
General Tom B. McGregor, and APP
proved by Attorney General Breathist.
that will nike the most radical changes
in conducting common schools in Ken
lucky if their construction of the law
is upheld.
In the first it is held that no teacher
mas the right to any salary or part of
the common school fund unless that
teacher has a certificate of qualification
furnished by duly authorized Board
of Examiners; in the second, it is held
that it is the duty of the Superintend-
ent Of Public instruction to withhold
any part of the school fund due to any
city or shool distrit for noncompliance
with the school laws.
In the future Superintendent Crabbe
will act in accordance with these opin-
ions until he is directed otherwise by
the Court Of Appeals. A long list of
court decisions and statutes are Quoted
/ to sustain the contention of the Attor-
neyIGeneral in the first case, and the
result will be that there will be but
! few teachers in the common schools in
/ this State in the future who will not
have certificates, and next summer the
normal schools will be crowded with
teachers preparing to stand their ex-
aminaslons.
| There have been many teachers in
he common schools in Kentucky this
year without certificates, or any quail
fiations to draw the States money, says
Superintendent Crabbe, and one of the
greatest drawbacks to the progress OF
+ the schools In the State has been elimi
mated
