Notson. I trust that school officers will let me know when they have secured their teachers, for I have numerous inquiries from teachrrs concerning vacancies; some from our local teachers, some from outside teachers. If you have secured your teachers, I need not refer auy teacher to you. If yon are in need of a teaoher and will notify me of the fact, the kind of teacher preferred the salary you ex pect to pay, etc , I may be able to assist you in securing the right kind of a teacher. Teachers and school officers should hear in mind that a valid contract can not be entered into by the teacher until the teacher's certificate lias been registered for the year, beginning .Tnnln 7. And teachers should re member that the reading circle work must be done before the superinten dent can register your certificate. If vou have not completed the reading cirole work, you should use a part of your vacation for that purpose. School boards having employed teachers from other States, should re quest such teachnrs to find out at once from the State Superintendent or "the county superintendent what is neoee- ssry to be done in order to put their certificates in proper form to sustain a valid contract If thpy wait until they are ready to open school there may be delay and additional expense.
