1t does not seem to be so generally
understood as it should be that
scholarship appointments can be Sc
cured without cost by applying to the
county examiner or county superin-
tendent. Each county is entitled to
a free scholarship for every 20 teach
ers in the county, and any county can
secure special appointments until all
have been taken up for the state.
That is, four hundred teachers are
entitled to the advantages OF the
state normal and only about one half
that number have taken advantage
the opportunity offered. President
Doyne urges the county examiners
and county superintendent to create
a sentiment in their respective coun
ties among the teachers and those
who aspire to become teachers to the
end that every appointment available
may be filled and the state in turn
reap full benefit from this important
and much needed educational institu
ton, upon which to so great an ex-
tent we must depend for the efficiency
