relation to all the people of the county.
The administration of this office in
cludes much broader duties thnn merely
submitting list of questions to pros
pective teachers. Continually there are
questions to be decided, new problems
to solve, new provisions to be made for
new and growing communities. In
short the office requires business
qualification more than almost any
other of1lce in the county. These
qualities are possessed in a marked de-
gree by Mr.. Staley who is a candidate
for reelection.
Mr.. Staley is a graduate of Brown
University of Rhode Island, a college
of well known reputation, and later
took advance work in the University
of Wisconsin. He has had fifteen years
of practical teaching experience, includ-
ing rural, graded and high school work
Having taught in both rural and higher
schools has had first contact with the
problems of both and the best methods
of their solution. He has had practi-
cal business experience which has been
granted few educators.
If you desire progress in the schools
of this county to continue and practi-
cal educational system that will bring
with it advancement place cross op-
posite the name of John j. Staley, for
county superintendent.
