Ny duties to the people
for whom | am teaching have
prevented me from taking an
active part looking after any in
terest that I might have in the
coming election, and my an
nouncement or County Superin-
tendent has been delayed till
this time for the reason stated.
AS soon as | can adjust some
matters connected with farming,
| shall be able to get out among
the people in the interest of my
election.
| am fairly we'll known to the
people of the county and have
done considerable school work in
Chickasw, as we'll as a great
deal Of teaching in South Miss
issippi. | taught four years in
Texas and my experience in
school work is SO large that | am
familiar with the details of all
our school problems.
/ am a graduate of the Ma
tional Normal University at Le-
banon, Ohio. This institution
blazed the way for the ..progres-
sive methods of modern educa-
ton, and sent great amount of
obsolete matter to the junk pile.
In addition to my literary
training, | studied bookkeeping
in the Commercial College of
Lexington, Kentucky, managed
by Wilbur R. Smith. This in
stitution ranked among the first
Of its kind in the United States.
My knowledge of handling &C.
counts of any kind, together
with my experience in the
affairs of everyday business will
enable me to keep in touch with
any matter that concerns the
business side of the County
Superintendent Office.
If the people give me the
County Superintendent office,
i shall keep a record of all school
moneys belonging to any depart
ment of school work in the
county, and the books that
shall keep will show both the
receipts and distributions anC
will be open for inspection by
any person whether he be a
private citizen or a public audi
tor.
In the matter of teachers
salaries, | shall be just to all and
play no favorites. All will get I
square deal alike.
| shall keep the County Sup
erintendent's office open for
business at all times that the
work is confined to the Office,
and the remainder If the time
shall give to the matter of look
ing after ourschool property and
the management of our public
schools, and | pledge myself tc
operate entirely in Chickasaw
County. However valuable q
County Superintendent's services
maybe to the people abroad,
think he should devote his time
and talent to the work for which
the people are paying him.
If you are a school patron,
know your problems; if you are
a taxpayer, know something
of your troubles; and, if you are
assteacher, | know your many
difficulties in accomplishing the
task to which you have been as.
signed. To all of you, l shall
bring to bear whatever ability
may have to bring about the
best result in the work l an
undertaking, and be as helpful
as possible.
AS a teacher. | have taught il
all grades of schools that any
county has. | know the details
of the work by heart, and shall
do constructive workito improve
the School work where it may
be needed.
