NOTES FROM THE COUNTY SU-
PERINTENDENT OF
SCHOOLS.

The annual report of the county su-
perntendent of schools was submit
ted to the state department Sept. LIST.
In this report is given some of the
statistics the county superintendent
is expected to keep on file. In it is
compiled the figures from the clerks,
trcasurers, and teachers reports.
These must be absolutely accurate in
so far as it is possible to make them
so.
Each year new items are added and
more is expected from clerks, treas
urcrs and teachers. With the pro-
grcss of the times more is required OF
the county superintendent and there
fore more from the other officers.
The county superintendent receives
specific instructions from the state de-
partment of public instruction and he
is expected to abide by them.
The school year began July lst,
1916, and will close June 80, 1917.
The county superintendent requests
that each teacher fill every blank sent
and return to this Office promptly.
1t is impossible to write letter each
time explaining that the department
desires these reports. 1t causes
lot of unnecessary correspondence to
write each teacher reminding her that
she has neglected to fiji the blank.
Every teacher knows that a certificate
must be recorded in the Office of the
county superintendent; that fee of
f, 81 90 is required for the renewal Of
certificate; that the regular teachers
examinations are held the second
Thursday and Friday in February,
May, August and December; that the
pupils eight grade examinations are
held on the third Thursday and Friday
in March and May.
Every teacher and school officer
should know that every blank sent out
from this office is sent here by the
state department for the cuonty su-
pcrntendcnt to distribute and after
the blanks are filled in, he must COM
pile the figures. If any teacher or
officer neglccts to make proper re-
ports, the county superintendent is
obliged to get the figures in any way
that he can and certify that they are
true to the best of his knowledge and
belief. We earnestly request the CO.
operation of the teachers.
Next week we will publish some in
tcresting items taken from the annual
report.
