Teachers Examination.

The next state examination for
teachers will be held March 80
and 81.
AS this is the last examination
until the middle of July, it will
be necessary for all teachers who
expect to teach in this county,

No teacher can legally receive
pay for teaching, who has no con-
tract with the County Board OF
Education. The Board cannot
sign a contract with a teacher
who has no certificate. The law
fixes a 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 years, of perman'
ent certificate, in lieu of the ex'
animation in the. Reading Circle,
may attend a term at some &C
credited school. In this work
at least one course in education
must be accreditably done. Thil
is the instruction of the state
superintendent.

Why A Merchant Failed.

You'd scarce expect one of my
age. in merchandising to engage
and hope to get a paying trade
without the local papers aid.
And yet did that very thing, /
opened up a store last spring,
this month the Sheriff took my
stock and sold it at the auction
block.
Don't view me with a scornful
eye; but simply say as | pass by,
there goes fool who seems to
think he had no use for printers
ink"
There is a truth as broad as
earth and business men should
know its worth; it's simply this,
tie public buys its goods from
those who advertise. Get the
idea, Mr. Business Man?
Advertise your goods, let the
public know that you are in bust
ness. and that you. want their
patronage. Give a short list Of
what you carry i'm stock, and
watch it go.

&Assl Teacher lndoses Reading Of News
papers BY Pupils. :

An experienced teacher says
that pupils who have access to
newspapers at home, when com.
pared with those who do not, are
better spoilers. better readers,
better granmarians. better pune
tuators. and read more under.
standingly, and obtain a practi.
cal knowledge of geography in
almost half the time it requires
others. The newspaper is de-
cidedly an important factor in
modern life. This will not be
disputed by any one who has TAX
en- the trouble to investigate the
matter for himself.
