STATE EXAMINATION
FOR TEACHERS
Rules Laid Down Therefor
by the State Superin-
tendent.

The following letter is from S.
H. Sheriff., State Superintend-
ent of Public instruction, which
was addressed to D. A. Tate,
County Superintendent of Public
Instruction, and is relative to the
qualification of teachers in this
county:
THE next State examination
for teachers will be held March
Both 31st. The weather was so
inclement when the December
examination was held that but
comparatively few took it. In
order to give the graders an op-
portunity to care for the papers
of the next examination, which
will be very heavy, we have de-
cided to hold the next examina-
tion sooner than was first plan
ned. We desire to have certi Fl
Gates from this examination In
the hands of teachers in time for
them to teach Summer terms of
school.
AS this is the last examina-
ton until the middle of July, it
will be necessary to have all your
teachers who expect to begin
teaching before September 1st,
take it.
No teacher can legally receive
pay for teaching who has no con-
tract with the Board. No Board
can sign a contract with a teach
err who has no certificate. The
law fixes fine for the violation
Of these regulations.
"All applicants taking the ex-
animation to receive a certificate
must take the entire examination.
This includes the Reading Circle.
Holders of five-year or perma-
nent certificates, in lieu of the ex-
animation in the Reading Circle,
may attend a term at some ac-
credited school. In this work at
least one course in education must
be accreditably done.
Please give this announce
ment wide circulation in your
county and get all your teachers
to qualify at the next examina-
ton. 1t is very unsatisfactory to
wait until the July examination. "
Very respectfully,
S. Fl. SHERRILL,
State Superintendent.
Accompanying the above is a
from Mr.. Tate as follows:
The above letter explains itself.
Let every one who expects to
teach be on hand promptly at 8
O'Clock on Friday morning, March
30th. Every teacher will be ex-
tected to take the Reading Circle
examination and all of the branch
es taught in the elementary
schools.
Remem Der that no applicant
will be permitted to enter the ex-
animation after 8 O'Clock in the
morning. We have no choice in
the matter but must obey the in
structions of the State Superin-
tendent.
Don't fail to be on hand before
8 O'Clock in the morning.
Respectfully,
D. A. TATE,
County Superintendent.

vision for payments in installments.
Death or total disability would mature
the insurance.
In working out the new system, it
is deemed essential that system for
re-education and rehabilitation be es-
tablished, so that injured men may
be fitted as FAR as possible for lives
of usefulness either in their former
or some other vocations.
This new idea proposes to impose
on the public treasury the obligation
of indemnifying justly the men who
have entered, or are about to enter,
the army or navy to fight in the cause
of liberty. With our men on ths son
of France and hundreds of thousands
of other about to enter the service
of their country, the question is one
of justice and fairness and the plan
should be as liberal as it is possible
for just and generous republic to
make.

BUSY ARE SHEEP
SHEARING DAYS
At CRESTVIEW
SPECIAL 70 THE JOURNAL

Crestview, Aug. Perhaps the
busiest place in or around Crestview
is sheep shearing shed on the farm
of J. F. Richbourg, about a mile and
a half from town. Here we find the
popular county tax collector, A. Rich
bourg, dressed in working clothes,
with a pair of large shears in his
hand, for he too is working with his
helpers in order that the work might
be done mere speedily as the season
is late for the shearing. It is quite
interesting to watch the process, es-
pecially for those who have never
seen it. The sheep are grabbed by
the horns, tied on a shelf, then the
clipping begins, and when their heavy
coats of wool are gradually rolled off
their bodies the animals are once
again placed on the ground and al
lowed to go free.
Mr. Richbourg says he has about
four hundred head and estimated the
wool to amount to about fourteen
hundred pounds. This is very prof

Washington, August For the
first time in the history of the United
States a concerted effort on govern
mental initiative is now being made
to provide adequate and scientific fl
nancial protection for the officers and
enlisted men of the army and navy
and for their dependents.
Instead of proceeding along the old
course of fighting a war first, and
caring afterwards for injured soldiers
and sailors and the families Of those
killed, the government is now at the
very outAet of Americas entry into
the war laying plans for insuring
and indemnifying it's fighting men:
AS a result of more than months
constant and intensive study, plan
will soon be presented to congress for
consideration which, if adopted, will
give to the men who go to the front
the comforting assurance that they
will be cared for should they be
wounded, and that their dependents
will receive adequate protection
should they be killed or disabled.
The plan is intended to take the
place of the pension system so far as

Get Back Of Uncle Sam

Out OF the hearts and souls of
people of the great Northwest
there is springing loyal response
to the country's call and like IT,
dial wave the Liberty Loan Camp
align is sweeping over the country.
While yet there can be only the
most tentative estimates because
of the large sum involved and thu,
vast extent Of territory in the states
of the Ninth Reserve district it is
already known that the men and
women of the farms are rallying to
the call, as are the clerks, mechan-
les and laboring men of the cities.
Sect back of Uncle Sam is a
slogan heard on city streets, in
country towns and along the coun.
try roads. The banks are needing
it, and the merchants and the man.
ufacturers and the miners and the
railroad men, anu travelling men
and everybody.
Organized labor is on record for
the loan and is backing it up nobly.
THERE is A GREAT RACE
ON-the greatest contest of tn.
kind ever known, for first places on
the honor list.
Minneapolis has to raise $4,000.
900, the heaviest apportionment in
the district. But any smaller town
may beat out Minneapolis when thu.
honor roll is written. for the cities
and the states and counties that
will have reason to be proudest
when the campaign is over will not
alone be those that have raised the
largest amounts, but those that
have gone the highest over their
allotments.
Some of the smaller cities al
ready have girded up to put Min
neapolis, St. Paul and Duluth in
secondary place when the returns
are in.
Buy Bonds and Back our Boys
is the call that is being answered.
today from everywhere in the great
Northwest.
The whole great country is raj.
lying to the cry to get behind the
men that are going to fight for our
rights, our liberty and our homes.
1t is never cling to be said that
the people Of the United States of
America let their men go into bat
tie unprepared to fight or without
the shoes and clothes and food tl:ot
they must have, or the means to
take care of them if they are bowl
ed over.
The great truth is being realized
that the Government is not ask; ny
anyone for money. but wants only
to borrw it and is giving fr it the
finest security that exists in the
whole world. And patriotism
