Notice to Applicants for Teachers
Certificates.

ST. Joseph, La, February 3rd, 1919,
The next State examination for teacit-
ers' certificates will be conducted in the
School Board office on or about April
LIST, ..l9l5. The exact date will be pub
lished later.
In the past some of the applicants have
reported for the examination without
making any preparation whatever on the
subject OF Theory and Art Of Teaching.
Failure was inevitable for all such appli-
cants.
urge most earnestly upon all:who wish
to take this examination to prepare them
selves on this subject as well as on all
other subjects to be given.
MIR. Commit, the Chairman of the state
Examining Committee, who prepares all
neutrality-suspicious., will not state in
advance just what book or books he will
take these questions from, but states the
questions will be general in their nature.
Under these circumstances it will not
he possible for me to say with certainty
Just where he will get these questions Oh
the Theory and Art of Teaching, but
suggest to all applicants that they provide
themselves with copy of "School Man
agement" by. Salisbury, and "The Work
u the Rural School, by Eggliston ana
Bruere. These books are in the libraries
of the three high schools OF the parish
and they can be had from F. F. Hansell
* Bro, Ltd, New Orleans, La.
1t is not my purpose to discourage any
one wishing to take these examinations,
but to impress upon all applicants the
necessity of thorough preparation.
For your information | wish to give
some statistics of the State examination
held on December LIST, last. There were
ll3 whites who applied for first grade Ger.
tificates. IL secured first grade certificates
3Sl applied for second grade certificates.
~ secured second grade certificates.
9S applicants for third grade certificates
and los secured third grade certificates.
To secure first grade certificate the
applicant must answer 50 per cent OF the
questions. Toisecure second grade, so
per cent of the questions. To secure a
third grade, 20 per cent of the questions.
Tensas gazette. [volume] (St. Joseph, La.) 1886-current, 1915-02-12

Applicants who do not make So pc,
cent on the first grade are given second
grade certificate if they make so per cent
after eliminating the Geometry, or third
grade certificate if they make IS per cen,
after eliminating Geometry and Algebra.
To secure second grade certificate the
applicants must answer 50 per cent O,
the questions. Should the applicant fall
under 50 per cent and not less than Is
DER cent with the Algebra eliminated they
are given third grade certificate.
Those who apply for third grade GER
tificate must answer % per cent of the
questions. This accounts for the fact that
more third grade certificates were issued
than the number of applicants applying
for the third grade.

The FARMERS MEETING.

The agricultural meeting held here
last Thursday was in every respect
a great success. Quite a large crowd
OF planters from all sections OF the
parish took advantage Of the fine
weather to attend the meeting
Noticeable in the audience was quite
n number Of the leading colOred
farmers from different sections Of
the parish, who listened with the
greatest interest to the different adj
dresses and who seemed to he very
much impressed by the good advice
given on the various subjects.
Those who addressed the meeting
were: Mr.. Mason Snowden, State
Agent in charge of demonstration
work; Mr.. w. r. Perkins and Mr..
A. r. Moist Of the Live Stock Elk
tension Service, all three being con-
nected with the Agricultural De-
partment of the Federal Govern
ment, and Mr.. C. III. Staples of the
Louisiana State University e. Agri-
cultural e. Mechanical College. All
Of the speakers showed n complete
knowledge Of the subjects handled
by them and their remarks were
listened too by all present, with the
very greatest interest. While the
lectures were all good and of great
interest, the lecture on the raising
Of all kinds of live stock, by Mr..
Moist, was probably the most inter-
esting, as it is subject, which, at
present, is commanding the great
est thought and attention of our
farmers.
We feel under great obligations to
the Department for the assistance
it is giving us and hope that these
meetings will be held at frequent
intervals and know that the inter-
est in them will increase.
