Failure to Attend County
institute Results in
Cancellation
LARGEST NUMBER IN
TUSCALOOSA COUNTY
None of Teachers Who Lose Certifi-
Gates Are From jefferson,
Montgomery or Mobile
Counties

uuflig the summer OF 1917 mas resulted
in the cancellation of tho certificates
of 154 white teachers of the state.
The list of teachers whose certifi-
Gates have been cancelled by the de-
partment of education was announced
this afternoon by Superintendent Henry
J. Willingham, who has been busy for
the past few weeks collecting sta
tistics relative to the various teachers
in the state who attended the county
Institutes in 1912.
The cancellation of the certificates
of teachers who fail to attend county
institutes without good excuses is pro-
vided by law The statute provides
that every public school teacher in
the state shall attend an institute for
enc week during the summer. Those
teachers who attend summer normal
schools, or who have good excuses for
nonattendance on the institutes of the
state, are relieved of the necessity of
having their certificates cancelled,
though the law provides that all teach
ers excused from attending an insti-
tute must have their names certified
to the department of education.
Among the 154 teachers whose cer-
tificates have been cancelled 1t is pos
sible, according to Superintendent Will
ingham, that some of them may have
been excused by the county superin-
tendents of education, in which event
their certificates will be restored to
them. All others who have had their
certificates cancelled must stand the
regular teachers examination before
being allowed to again teach in any
of the schools of the state.
In the list of teachers whose GER
tificates have been cancelled none of
them is from Jefferson. Montgomery
or Mobile counties. The teachers in
those counties seem to have all met
the requirements of the law with ref
erence to attending institutes.
The largest number whose certifi-
Gates were cancelled is from Tusca-
loosa county. in which IA teachers have
been dropped from the eligible list,
In Cleburne county u teachers We're
dropped and in the other counties The
number varies from one to ten. Many
of the counties did not have any teach
ers dropped.
