What suggestions do the teachers have t ? i.iake to the Constitutional Convent/ion relative to the improve ment of the scho*ol system ? It would be best for every one who expects to draw public funds to sec, before he doc3 any teaching, that he has a teacher's certificate in furce, otherwise he may do work that he may not get pay for. Trustees should fill out the blanks sent them, and return them to the Commissioner at once, as he cannot make hir, repoit until he gets the reports frcyn the trustees, and his report must be sent to the State Superintendent by the ist of Octo -' her? - The teachers of the county failed to get the excursion to Charleston in tlic buminer. If they wish aft excursion to Atlanta it can be. gat tot) up at "very low rates.

The law forbids the employment of any one for a teacher in the pub lic schools who docs not hold a per mit from the county board.
