Salt Lake City, July %, 1918.

Saturday, August End and Bird, 1918,
as shown by the enclosed program, in
the Cedar City school building.
For the convenience of those who
desire to take the examination in your
district, | trust that you will make
the necessary arrangements to con-
duct examinations, and inform appli-
cants when and where to report.
Questions will be sent to you in
time for examination. The number
of copies will be estimated from the
number of applicants ordinarily re-
porting for examination in your dis
trict.
The applicants this year will be in
three distinct classes:
| W Those who hold county certifi-
Gates and wish to renew their certifi-
Gates by taking examination in the
reading and study course. Most
teachers taking the reading and study
course are doing the work either as
correspondence students or in summer
school. There will be only a few ap-
plicants, therefore, for this examina-
ton. You will observe that questions
are furnished in ethics, citizenship,
community civics, U. S. History, rural
economics, and rural sociology. Each
applicant should take examination in
the first two and in any one of the
other three named.")
(2) Those who do not hold Utah
certificates but either have completed
at least one year of college work, not
including the subjects prescribed for
county certificate without examina-
ton, or have had teaching experience
in other states. (These applicants
will take the general county examina-
ton. Present holders of county GER
tificates do not take this examina-
ton but renew by completing the
reading and study course.)
(3) Those who desire to qualify
for the third class certificates. Cap
plicants for primary certificates in
this class will take the county exam
nations as shown on the program,
except arithmetic and U. S. History
eight examinations in all. Applicants
for grammar grade certificates in this
class will take the county examina-
tons as shown on the program with
the privilege Of emitting either arith-
metic or U. S. History-nine exam
nations in all. 1t is expected that
applicants for primary certificates will
take examination in reading; and APP
plicants for grammar grade certifi- +
Gates, in community civics)
The county examination in health
work in the schools is based on Hoag
and Terman's Health work in the
Schools, published by Houghton Milf
film Company; community civics on
Hughs Community Civics, published
by Allyn & Bacon; and natural sci
ence on Prul's Nature Books, published
by the Deseret News.
Applicants for the county eXamina-
ton who have completed in courses of
college grade any of the subjects
named in the examinations are ex-
empt from examinations in such sub
iects.
Please note that the reading and
study course examinations in com
munity civics and in American history
are different from the county exami-
nations in community cvics and u. S,
history. Very truly yours,
