m III SCHOOL
County School Superintendent
llacon has received notice from the
.office of J. A. Churrhlll. superinten
dent of public Instruction, relative
to changes In the school law. One
is the changing or Rule 22, which
has been changed to read: "An ap
plicant for any certificate shall pay
a fee for the certificate at the time
of examination, even though the ap
plicant write tor exemptions he shall
pay the fee each time he takes the
examination. If he write on more
than two subjects."
Another ruling Is: "After Decem
ber I no standard high school shall
accept work dona In a non-accredit
ed secondary school and students of
such school, beyond being admitted
to any atsndard high school must
pas a written examination on those
subjects on which they apply for(
hlRh school credit. The examina
tions must be conducted hy the
principal of the high school and the
examination questions and manu
script must be filed In this office
for the Inspection of the superinten
dent of public Instruction or his
representatives.'1-
Superintendent Churrhlll, . In
speaking of the work of the teschers
and pupils In the work of securing
signatures in tlm food conservation
campaign, says, "I feel that, the peo
ple of Josephine county should be
very pround of their teachers. The
rural teachers anil pupils are esie-
clally to lie commended,-as In most
Instances they worked without the
assistance of the' business men and
women who helped In the city campaign."
Teachers' examinations will be
held In Grants Pasa on December
19. 20. 21 and 22.
