The third county Is Spartanburg with $10,830.60, and so on down to Charleston county, which tails the ticket with only $ >86. The circular received by Superin tendent Felton contains considerable interesting information, interesting to the patrons of the schools of the county. Particular attention Is call ed to the isciance of . teachers' licen ses. The circular on this subject says: An obscure 'amendment to sect lo/ 1708 of the code, adopted at the 1914 session of the legislature, withdrew from the state department of educa? Uon th? right to Issue teachers' cer tificates. Heretofore such certificates were If su od to: (al Full graduates of accredited colleges in South Carolina whoso cur riculum, standing, faculty and' equip ment had been examined and approv ed by the state board of education.

' (e) Experienced teachers pursuing successfully the-reading circle course outlined by the state board of educa tion'.
