Teachers to Stand 'Examination in
/
March at Columbia.
Results of the regular fall teachers'
examination held at each county
court house October 7th and 8th have
already been reported to the several
county superintendents of education.
Applicants taking this examination
were as follows: White men, 112;
white women, 994; white, both sexes,
1106; negro men, 161, negro women,
971; negro. both sexes, 880; total for
both races, 1986.
Applicants earning and receiving
certificates were as follows: White
men, first-grade 7.; second-grade 6;
third-grade 18; total for white men
?1; white women, first-grade 54;
second-grade 124; third-grade 221;
total white women 399: total white
both sexes 430; negro men, first-grade
0; second-grade 2; third-grade 52,,
.total negro men 54; negro women,)
Sirst-ffradd 0; second-grade 32; third- !
grade 22d; total negro women 260>;
total negro both sexes 314; grand
total of all certificates isued for both
races 744.
These figures show that 1242 applicants
failed. Some of these applicants
began work in the fall before
the results of the examination could
be ascertanied and announced. "Wherever
such a teacher failed the county
supertlnendcnt as usual secured for
him or her a permit for the session '
1921-22. This protection, of course, |
could not reach and relieve that group
o fteachers who had been given per- i
mits during the scholastic year 1920-j
21. Afew of these disqualified per- |
mit teachers are requesting another!
chance in an extra special examination.
In addition, there are some similar
scattering requests from other folk j
under varying circumstances and con- i
dltions. In order to meet tl^is do-!
mand, the State Board of Education, .
upon the request and rocommendation I
of the State Superintendent of Educa-j
tion, has authorized an extra special
teachers' examination to be held In!
Columbia Thursday, March 23rd and j
Friday, March 24th by the State Bureau
of Examiners.
Applicants coming to Columbia for
the exnmlr.dtion, however, will be:
compelled to meet their own traveling
expenses for the trip. This private expense
feature of the examination is
unfortunata, but the holding of such

an examination at the forty-six county
courthouses would cost something
like $600.00. The State Board of
Education, the State Superintendent
of Educatio nand the State Bureau of
Examiners hope that all teachers requesting
thai examination will understand
and ajjpreciate the necessity of
public economy.
There are several matters in connection
with the meeting of the tSate
Teachers Association to which we
wish to call your attention. Please
read carefully the following:
1. The dates are Thursday. Friday
and Saturday. March 16-18.

meeting, high school and churches
nedrb.v for department meetinirs. On

I enclose one ol' these. In case you
lose this or fail to get it. write It. C.
Burts, Rock Hill, or call on your
county superintendent of education.
Give this certificate to your agent and
he wil lsel lyou a return ticket which
you must have signed by the ticket
agent in Columbia.
4. It is very important for teachers
who expect to uttend, to arrange

Yt>u see a great deal in the ntagv.ines
about exercise these days. They
>ven have phonograph records telling
on how to exercise, explaining how
rou are to lity Hat on your back on
the ceiling of your room and work
rour cars in a circular motion front
eft to right and then back again front
right to left. This exercise, if persisted
in for 100 years .will remove
til the surplus fat front your toes and
liable you to wear a half sixv smaller
hoe than you ought to wear.
Some people take exercise to get
bin and other people take exercise to
let fat. Then sonic people have an
doa that exorcise will make them
strong. There are lots of fo< lish noions
about taking exorcise.
Just take this idea about exercise
nuking you strong. There never was
i more foolish notion than this. If
?xereise would make you strong I
enow any number of ladies who
aught to have such muscles in their
jaws that they could bite a railroad
upike in two without ever knowing
that there was anything between their
eeth.
Some told me a few years ago
hut if you would run a few miles
jvery day you would reduce youi
weight so much that you would have
to walk by a place three or four times
to make a shadow. It won't work.
I ran all over this county in my automobile,
. sometimes running as much
an 100 miles in a day. and 1 never lost
ft pound.
I have exercised my eyes a great
deal during the era of short skirts,
too, but I don't notice that my eyeiight
i? any stronger than it was a few
years ago.
bo mere must i>c :i good deal of
nmk about this exorcise stuff.
