informs us that out of the forty-one
who took the regular October teachers
examination, which was held on o.

were successful and received certiti

one failed to receive grades high
enough to allow them to receive GER

certificates, ten third-grade, eleven
second-grade and one frst-grade.
Superintendent Olry thought the teach

are low and be examined and bring
these grades up to standard, and in
this manner work towards second
grade certificates. Mr.. Olry is we'll
pleased with the conditions of the
rural schools throughout the county
at the present time. He tells us that
