OKNKKAL HUOC.KSTIONS
Principals of high schools
and those aspiring to leach in
the high schgol department of
our town and city schools should
lose no time in meeting the re
quirements of Ihe new law
which goes into effect Septem
ber. 1 , 1007.
Note carefully the program
for exami tuition. It is necessary -
sary for each applicant to be
present at th" time and place
designated for each subject.
The county superintendent lias
no authority to make changes
in the program.
Tho.se holding certificates
that will expire in 100(5 ( should
begin their preparation for the
the examination now. They
should also begin taking the ex
amination so as to have a cer
tilicate under the new law ,
which will mean much in the
selection of teachers by boards
of education in the early spring
of 100(5 ( They should strive
also to reach the "With Credit"
or "With Honor"clus.s of teach
ers , for wide-awaice boards of
education will be afler teachers
with such qualifications , offer
ings and ready to pay them sal
aries commensurate with their
qualifications and success ,
If every man who desires Falls
City to be a better town would
attend the next commercial club
meeting to be held on the even
ing of the second Monday in
October , we would fill the court
house to the limit and stir up an
enthusiasm that would count in
results. Do your part and come
out.
