port made by Mrs. Price, the Presi-
dent, and Miss Mary L. Forester,
Secretary, upon the VISIT OF some CT
the officers Of the Leesburg Associa-
ton to Blakely recently, where a

SUPERINTENDENTS

The county primaries will be held
during next spring and summer in
which county Superintendent Of
Schools must be elected in each coun-
ty in Georgia. Before any person
can be candidate, or especially be-
fore his name can appear upon the
ticket of general election, he must
have a certificate of qualification
from the State Board of Education.
The law prescribes the following
ways:
1. Have at least three years.
practical experience in teaching and
hold a first-grade high school
license, or
2. Have diploma from liter
airy college or normal school, or
3. Have five years experience in
the actual supervision Of schools
(this means Superintendent Of
county or independent system Of
schools, or
4. Stand an approved examina-
ton before the State Board of Edu-
cation as to his qualification.
The State Board hes answered the
following questions in Interpreting
the above law:
Question: "a person who wishes
to qualify as a candidate for the
position of County School Superin-
tendent under the head five years.
experience in the actual supervision
of Schools states that he has been
for more than five years superin-
tendent of rural schools, some of
which were consolidated schools; will
this qualify him?"
Answer: ''No."
Question: zone person states that
ne is graduate of the Bryan Coun-
ty Institute, completed the sopho-
more year at Mercer and taught one
year. viii this qualify him?"
Answer: "No."
Question: "Will being graduate
OF the School of Law of Emory Uni
versity qualify a candidate under
the provision of being graduate
from literary college?"
Answer: s'No; he must take an ex-
animation, at least in school law,
school methods and administration.
In making application for certif-
cate, be sure to send evidence Of the
head under which you wish to quail
fy. For example, a graduate of a
literary college should send certi-
flcate from the President or Regis
trar of that college showing that you
are a graduate, degree received, and
year of graduation. Also, in each
case, give full detail of your expert
ence in teaching or supervision certi-
fed to by the regular school official.
1t would be well that all appIica-
lions other than that of examination
should be in this office before Jan
uary Is, 1924, so that if the candi-
date could not qualify under the
heading upon which his application
was made, he could take the exami-
nation later.
Examination will be held for ap-
pllcants on January 26, 1924, at the
following named places:
Atlanta, Rome, Gainesville. Ath-
ems, Augusta, Macon, Columbus.
Moultrie, Blakely, Waycross, Dublin.
Savannah, and Sparta.
While the Examination will in
Guide elementary and high school
SUBJECTS, yet emphasis should he
placed upon the school law. school
administration and school super
vision. 1t would therefore be well
Tor applicants to thoroughly fanil-
larl2e themselves with the School
C code and Georgia Manual for
Teachers. 80
