IL. The public is cordially invited.
The resolution recently passed by
the Board of Public instruction
to the effect that every teacher who
expects to teach in this county will
be required to 60 on the EXamlnat-
ion in NOluSia meets the hearty
appreciation of every teacher who
is not in the work for the paltry
dollars and cents. 1t is certainly
true that if one is able to honestly
pass examination in one county,
he can do SO in another. The real
Teacher CON rovor I've paid AND the
unprcparcd, careless one is a dear
commodity at any price. The
sooner that class is eliminated
from the profession the better it
will be for all parties concerned.
1t is true that different views are
held by the Grading committees
in various counties, but as a rule
the teacher gets what he merits.

Men who stained their names, and
shamcd their lives and Smcarcd their
characters with the dirt of evil ways
men a hundred times dirtcr than your
self. And I've known them to find
their way to church Just as you have
done-brought here by some one else.
I've seen them down at the altar OF
grace and mercy on their knees; their
eyes blinded with tears, their hearts
broken with penitence, And we re-
ceive them gladly. Only the angels in
heaven, holy and sinless, were gladder
than I-only Christ, the Saviour, and
the loving all-Father were gladdcr than
the angels. 1t IS the mission of the
church, not to turn away the detlcd,
but to grid herself, kneel down and wa III
the travel-worn and dust stained feet Of
the wayfarer. Poor old dollar bill.
