WHERE THEY WILL TEACH
Rural Schools to Open for Work Monday,
August 2; Far as Possible.

The County Board of Education
largely completed it's labors of Sc
lecting teachers for the rural schools
Saturday. The teachers were Sc
lected following the County Institute
which lasted two weeks.
The total number of rural schools
is 81 and it requires SO teachers to
supply them. That number is re.
qulred outside of Crossville public
school, the County High School and
Pleasant Hill Academy.
The institute had an enrolment of
AZ, but there were about 20 teachers
in the county who held permanent
certificates and were not required
to take the regular examinations.
There were 38 who took the eXamin-
ations and several took the examina-
tions that did not attend the insti-
tute. There was general salary
increase that made the minimum
salary $50 with the maximum $50.
1t was the purpose of the school
board to have made a heaverier in
crease, but as the school funds for
this year were short it was found
advisable to adopt the lower scale
of wages.
Teachers have not as yet been Sc
cured for all the rural schools, but
so far as supplied they will open for
work next Monday, August 2.
There are about a dozen schools yet
to be supplied with teachers, which
will be done as rapidly as teachers
can be secured.
Following are the names of the
schools that will open for work next
Monday with the names of the teach
