To all Teachers of Sherman County: Recently, Superintendent Hend rickson mailed to each of rou a booklet containing the rules of the State department for the certification of teachers under the new law. 1 certainly hope that you have carefully read the booklet above referred to with much profit to your selves: and that it has inspired you to exert yourselves to the utmost to obtain a certificate under this new law. There can be no doubt that the ] first result of the operation of the I new law will be a scarcity of teachers. This will cause an increase in the compensation for those who are suc cessful in. securing new certificates, i You who have earnestly endeavored I to qualify yourselves for the teacher’s i work, who have some conception of I the sacredness and responsibilities of the teacher's calling, have cause to feel thankful that Nebraska had, for . once at least, a Legislature, broad enough, brainy enough, and patriotic 1 enough to place upon our Statute ! book one of t he best school laws ever ■ put into effect by any State of the ! Union. Teachers, do not be negligent nor ' dilatory. The time to bestir your selves is now. By beginning in January you will have until July to complete your examination in the five essentials. By beginning in February you may finish in August, and be ready for the September schools. Below I quote rule 22 and the amendment. A lit? UVC - TV IKSI1 il first, second, or third grade county certificate granted under the old law expires, the holder thereof, in order to secure a certificate under the new law, will be required to take an examination before the state examin ing board in the following five essen tial subjects: readlug, arithmetic, geography, grammer, and history. After an applicant has taken the examination in the five essentia) subjects and received passing grades, the state examining board will accept the remaining ‘‘passing” grades as shown by the certificate held, making them state grades for the first certifi cate under the new law. No grade will be accepted from a certificate not in force October 1, 1905. AMENDMENT TO BULB 22, “Provided, That teachers engaged in educational work, whether teach ing or attending school, who have complied with the requirements as to reading circle work, attendance at the county institute and educational meetings, and who have been granted certificates since July, 1, 1903. may have the grades shown on such certificates validated by the state superintendent and made state grades (except in the case of the five essen tials as provided in tills Rule 22 and except as governed by Rule 10), upon the request of the county superinten dent of the county in which such person applies for a certificate. This provision shall take effect on tills third day of November, 1905, and shall continue in full force and effect to and including the regular examina tion in August, 1905.” Teachers who registered for the October examination may avail themselves of this provision. Teachers wishing to profit by this proviso should note carefully Rule 2, Time Allowed for Examination. Teachers may begin the examiuatioc as late as February," 19QB. They will need only tq pay the fee gqd file the old certificaiq wi|h the county superintendent. Theft they may take such time as seems heat to write op ~ ~ — •1 . . -■ ■■ *"-^ JIMMY HlEli: G SUE . ^ . ’ ”* * At C. C.

This will permit candi dates to register for examination in February, and complete the examina tion in August following, thereby availing themselves of home study. They may also attend the summer term at some lirst class college or normal school, and then complete the examination after thorough prepara tion. The reading circle work referred tc , in this amendment is as follows:— Hitchcock’S' ‘‘The Louisiana Pur chase”, Ginn & Co.. White’s' | “Elements of Pedagogy" and Putnam’s i ‘‘Text-book of Psychology,” American Book Co. The minimum amount of reading circle work, is the reading of any two of the books of the course.
