Elsewhere in this paper notice is given of the regular spring teachers' examination, which will be held at every county courthouse Friday, May 12, and Saturday, May 13. Every teacher who expects to teach next year and who is not properly certificated should take this examination. If a teacher is in any doubt about being able to secure a state certificate, she should take the coming examination. I should like to call the attention of those teachers who taught this year on permits to the importance of taking this spring examination. These teachers cannot teach again on a permit. Teachers who fail to take the examination and who find themselves without a state certificate at the beginning of school should not expect the county superintendent to help them out He is poweriess in such a case. No teacher can be employed to teach school unless she holds a state certificate. Teachers should not rely on the permit. When teachers were hard to secure, that provision was made to keep the caViaaIh KairtflP txrif h/vif +OQ/*V*ATC OV11WIU ItVU MVA413 TT IVIIVU* ?VHVKV*u. Teachers with slate certificates can be found now, and thoso who expect tc teach on permits will find it hard to secure schools. I should like to impress upon the teachers of Williamsburg county the importance of attending summer school. Terchers should strive to prepare themselves well for their work, and I know of no better way of doing this than to attend a good summer school every few years, if not every year. Those teachers who are careless about providing themselves with state certificates, and who never make an effort to improve themselves and keep up with their profession, arc not worthy of the consideration of a board of trustees, and should drop out of the profession. The day has come when those to vhom is given the sacred work of training the children of our country must be properly qualified. And I am glad that so many of our teachers annrwiate the imnortance of their noble work and are striving to build up the profession. To such teachers we owe a debt that can never be paid ir. dollars and cents. M. F. MONTGOMERY, County Superintendent of Education. o Resolution of Respect. Whereas, Almighty Go?i in his infinite wisdom did remove from our midst, on January 4th, 1922, one of our oldest and most loyal members, brother A. B. Hemingway, who was raised September 4th, 1873, and whose remains now sleep in old Union grave yard, therefore be it Resolved, that we the members of Indiantown Lodge No. 165, A. F. M., have lost a true brother, whose loyalty to God, his country end to Masonry has never been questioned and whose example we should ever follow, That we extend to the bereaved family our heartfelt sympathy in this hour of sadness, That these resolutions be spread upon our minutes and a copy be sent the family.
