Attorn'y General Deputes Opinion of State Superintendent , Opinions of the head of the educa tional department of the state and that of the public In general as well, re garding the new state examination laws, have been in error according to a decision of the attorney general. It has been generally understood that the ' state board of examiners could take cognizance of the county certifi cates under the old law and what ex emptions .they might have obtained would allow them to avoid an exami nation under the new law. On request of Superintendent Alder man of Baker county, the attorney general denies this, saying: "Replying to your communication of the 28th ultimo, asking whether the provisions of Chapter 58, Session Laws of 1911, an applicant who has secured part of her exemptions, or all of her exemptions, exceeding two subjects, and have since secured a standing of more ' than 85 in theso two subjects, will be pejmitted to take : another examination - at the June state examinations on he re- uile lict iu uavo it ii uuuLv wunu malnlng subjects, and thus secure Is ' renewable very three years, 1 beg to say. In my opinion, the law does not have such' effect. It might have, and In my opinion would, If the old exemptions had not been ex pressly repealed, but section 31 of said chapter 58 of the laws of 1911. expressly repeals section, SI of the school laws of 1909, page .""!, .the same being section 11 of chapter 116 laws of 1907, and relates to -exemp tions, and nearly all of the other sections of the said chapter 116 are also expressly repealed. "Therefore, all exemptions hereto fore granted, where the par(ty has not received a first grade certificate thereunder, have been wiped out and an applicant will have to com mence examinations anew.!'
