DR.. Schaeffer on
The New School Code.

The following are notes on the
new Pennsylvania School Code
which have been prepared by DR..
Nathan G. Schaeffer. State Super
intendent of Public Instruction, as
they appeared in the Towanda
Review
"Under the new School Code,
all school boards which elected
officers in June, 1910, will re-
organize on the first Monday of
June, 1911, or as soon there after
as possible, and will levy their tax
and elect their teachers for one
year as heretofore, except in the
independent districts which will be
abolished on the first Monday of
July. Teachers can be elected for
one year only. School boards that
have heretofore levied the school
taxes in June should do so at the
same time and in the same man
ner as heretofore.
The duplicate should be placed
in the -hands of the collector by
the first Monday of July. All
independent districts are abolished
on the first Monday of July, and
all districts that levy any taxes
this year after the Code was signed,
in which there is any territory
that belongs to an independent
district, will levy its taxes on all
property in the district, including
such territory as comes to it on
the first Monday of July, 1911,
when the Independent districts
go out of existence.
To all school taxes assessed and
levied in all school districts of the
second, third and fourth class
which are not paid on or before the
first day of October, penalty of
five per cent will be added: no re-
bate allowed for prompt payment.
School boards can proceed with
the erection of school buildings as
heretofore except, that after the
State Board of Education is organ
lied, the plans and specifications of
new buildings and improvements
must be submitted to that Board
for suggestions.
| Every contract in excess of three
hundred dollars made by any
school district for the introduce
ton of heating, ventilating or light
systems or the construction, re-
construction or repair of any
school building, or work upon any
school property, shall be awarded
to the lowest and best bidder, after
due public notice has been given
upon proper terms, asking for
competitive bids.
The present members of the
school boards in second, third and
fourth class districts, except in in
dependent districts, will serve un-
til the Monday of December, 1911,
when they will be superseded by
the school directors elected in No
vember, 1911. In districts of the
first class, philadelphia and Pitts
burg,) the present directors will
be superseded on the second Mon
day of November, 1911, by the
directors appointed by the court.
No school director can serve as
tax collector.
In school districts of the second
class the secretary and treasurer
shall not be members of the school
board; in school districts of the
third and fourth class, members of
the school board may serve as
secretary and treasurer
The accounts shall be audited on
the first Monday of July, and the
auditors should publish a summary
OF their report, either in news
paper, or by promptly posting six
copies i'll as many different public
places.
If in any year before the first
Republican news item. [volume] (Laport, Pa.) 1896-19??, 1911-06-16

inspection shall not be made in
such school during the following
school year.
Present Independent districts
will be abolished after the first
Monday in July, but the courts
may upon petition, reconstitute
them at any time after that date.
Text books and school supplies
will, until January 1, 1912, be
selected and adopted under the old
laws.
The present fiscal year will be
extended by one month and will
expire on the first Monday of July
1911, at which time the school ac-
counts should be audited and the
annual report and affidavit and
certificate made out and forwarded
to the Superintendent of Public
Instruction. This year the ac-
counts will be audited by the same
officers as heretofore.
Teachers Certificates.
Provisional certificates may be
issued to persons who pass salts
factory examinations in spelling,
reading, writing, physiology and
hygiene, geography, English gram
mar, arithmetic, elementary alge
bra, history of the United States
and of Pennsylvania, civil govern
ment, including State and local
government, school management
and methods of teaching. Pro-
visional certificates are valid for
one wear in the district or districts
under the supervision of the super
intendent issuing them. No super
intendent shall make valid by en-
dorsement provisional certificate
issued by another superintendent.
Applicants for professional cer-
tilicates must pass a thorough eX-
animation in the branches required
for a provisional certificate and in
two additional branches which
they may select from the following
subjects : Vocal music, drawing,
English literature, plane geometry,
general history, physical geography,
elementary botany, elementary
zoology, elementary physics. They
must satisfy the superintendent by
oral and written tests that they
have carefully and intelligently
read two books on pedagogy ap-
proved by the Superintendent Of
Public Instruction. For this year
the superintendents are requested
to confine this oral or written test
to two books which recently have
been in the reading course adopted
for the County or City Tea chers'
Reading Circle.
No teachers certificate shall be
granted to any person who has not
submitted, upon blank furnished
by the Superintendent of Public
Instruction, a certificate from a
physician legally qualified to prac-
tice medicine in this commonwealth
setting forth that said applicant is
nett her mentally nor physically
disqualified by reason of tubercu-
losis, or any other chronic or acute
defe ct, from successful perfor-
nance of the duties of teacher;
nor to any person who has not a
good moral character, or who is in
the habit of using opium or other
narcotic drugs in any form, or any
intoxicating drink as a beverage.
The law regulating the minimum
salary of teachers remains un-
changed, since no appropriation
was made to pay for any increase
during the next two years.
The new school code will be
printed in full in the Pennsylvania
School Journal for June, and later
will be published and distributed
in book form, with index.

attack of kidney complaint and suffered
intensely from pains in my kidneys and
loins. The kidney secretions became
scant and painful in passage and was
alarmed, fox my condition grew so bad
that had to give up work. After
trying many remedies without getting
relief, Doan's Kidney Pills were
highly recommended to me and | pro-
cured a supply from the Irwin Phar-
macy. Their use brought the best of
results. The kidney disorders were
corrected and after had used three
boxes of this remedy, was completely
cured. What is more gratifying,
have never had the slightest reoccur-
renee of kidney complaint .
