Mrs. J. B. Salley, of Aiken, has written to Attorney General vVolfe, asking for an opinion as to how the women shall proceed to actually get the ballot, following ratification of the national suffrage amendment. Thirty-four of the necessary thirty-six states have ratified the amendment, and Washington and Deleware legislatures are expected to ratify this freek. "We then automatically become voting citizens," writes Mrs. Salley. "As attorney creneral of this state." writes Mrs. 8alley, "I should like very much te have your opinion in regard to the steps that should be taken to enforce the law. We hope and expect to vote in the presidential election and also in the Democratic primaries this summer but we realize that some legal action must be taken in this matter and that you are the proper one to prescribe these methods." Attorney General Wolfe will this week reader an opinion for the suffrage leaders. He will probably tell them that they automatically become voting citizens with ratification of the amendment, and that the next steps in the process of attaining the vote will be to register the women for the general election, and to have the Democratic party change its rules so as to allow women to vote in the primaries. Examine Teachers May 1. Columbia, March 22.?Two announcements of interest to teachers of the state were made by the stute board of education here today. Tho state-wide teachers examination will be held on Saturday. May 1. Ques tiona for the examination were arranged at a meeting of the atute hoard of education which adjourned Saturday. The question will be distributed to the county auperintcndenta. Thin is to be the last examination under the old law, which haa been on the statute books for nearly four decodes. The newly created state board will probably examine teacher* hereafter. The other announcement is that the new state board of examination and certification of teachers will probably be appointed in dune. The board was created by the recent legislature, but no appropriation was made to finance it. Qovernor Cooper was requested to make an effort to borrow from the state ton tingent fund, handled by the budget I commission, enough money to finance the board for the rest of this year. If I this is done the new board will be appointed so as to take office June 1.

In the extreme north of the Russian province of Archangel dwells one of the queerest and least known races of mankind. These are the Samoyedes, the wandering tribes of the vast frozen marshes* which -exten'd ftrthese regions from the forest belt to the shores of the Arctic ocean. They worship idols and their sole wealth consists in reindeer. Living, the reindeer draws the sledge which transports the Samoyede slid his belongings from spot to spot in search of the game and hah, which constitute his principal sustenance. Dead, it provides him with meat in times of scarcity, and with skin for his family tent. With its sharpened bones he tips his wooden fishing harpoons and hunt ing spears. Its smews he uses to sew together the shirt, breeches and boots of sealskin, which are the attire alike of the Samoyede men, women and children. ness Welfare ds on You :&nnot GET unlets we _ ou know how well we re you.
