CARO CONCERNING AUDIT OF THE COUNTY RECORDS Editor Jackson Progress-Argils: Will you kindly give me space to answer in ipiiries as to when I would call the mass meeting provided for by a resolu tion in mass meeting for a committee to report in reference to having the books of the county officers audited. In answer will say there is some progress being made, and the meeting will he called when the committee is ready to report. 1 have personally made some inquiry and the information received, it would cost about SIOO.OO peryear, the amount depending upon the starting point and the volume of work required to make a complete and correct report.

The auditor will have to be paid if employed, and one of the things to be considered is how he is to be paid. It may be the county might pay it, astwo grand juries have recommended the books be audited. If the county re fuses, then it will have to be done oy individuals. It is not unreasonable for grand ju ries and taxpayers to want the officers’ books audited in Butts county. It is done in other counties, it is done in states, it is done by governments, it is done by corporations. Why not Butts county? lam told by the Tax Collector he collected last year around SBO,OOO.

What prompted the people to kick was the compulsory idea, the quaran tining of cattle without ticks and the expense. After our meeting Dr. Neigh bert exhibited his chart of the fat and poor cow with the tick, and imparted the news that the law was not compul sory, which was consoling. R. W. MAYS. A Thorough Test One to Convince the Most Skeptical Jackson Reader The test of time is the test that i ounts. Doan’s Kidney Pills have made their reputation by effective action. The following case is typical. Jackson residents should be con vinced. The testimony is confirmed—the proof complete. Testimony like this cannot be ig nored. Mrs. B. F. Doe, 625 W. Solomon St., Griffin, Ga., says: “I suffered from kidney trouble for a number of years. My system seemed to be filled with uric acid at times and I suffered a great deal from pains in the small of my back and in my sides. I was very weak and nervous much of the time. Doan’s Kidney Pills did me a great deal of good.” (Statement given March 25,1908.) DOAN’S ON HAND On Feb. 12, 1915, Mrs. Doe said: “I always have Doan’s Kidney Pills on hand and they keep iny bajjk and kid neys in good order. ” Price 50c, at all dealers.

Hugh Mallet, C. S. S. On Friday the teachers are given the examination for the Primary license, and this is also the first days work for the Gen eral Elementary. In addition, on this date, questions will be sent for two of the five groups of the High School and Supervisory ex aminations: 1. History (Ancient, Modern and English), and 2. Language (Latin, French, Ger man, Spanish and Greek). Two of these languages only are re quired. Also on this day there will be questions for both the High School and the Elementary Reading Courses, and the ques tions on the History and Geogra phy of Georgia for those teachers having licenses from other States. On Saturday there will be ques tions for the last half of the Gen eral Elementary Examination, and for English, Science and Mathematics in the High School test. English includes Grammar, Composition and Rhetoric, Eng lish and American Literature. The Science test will consist of questions on Agriculture, Phy sics and Biology. Mathematics will include Arithmetic, Algebra through Quadratics, and Plane Geometry. Allowance must be made for embarrassment in the Language and Algebraic exami nation due to the inability of the State printer to furnish Greek or German type, and certain accents and mathematical signs. The High School and Supervis ory Certificate may be secured by taking examination on any three of the five groups mentioned in the System of Certification. Ap plicants are to take all subjects in each of the three groups se lected, except in case of the Lan guage group, where two only are required. This certificate not only gives authority to teach all of high school studies, but also to give instruction in the primary and general .elementary grades as well. ■ If there is an applicant for a Professional license a letter re questing this must certify as to the diploma (giving the name of the college and the year granted) at least three ‘years of success ful teaching, attendance for one session on such a summer school as the University of Georgia, Knoxville, Chicago, etc., and an average of 75 per cent, upon the Reading Course examination. Professional Certificates may be sent out from the State Depart ment only upon meeting the four requirements just mentioned. Where there is any doubt as to a teacher’s ability to obtain this Professional Certificate it would be better to take the High School test and to secure the High School and Supervisory license. It is especially to be desired that the examination be above reproach from the standpoint of good order and honesty. Occa sionally criticism is heard ?s to carelessness in these particulars in a few localities. If communi cation is allowed and there is careless supervision the results obtained are of little value, some systems will be unwilling to ac cept the certificates, and our whole educational work suffers in the estimation of all good cit izens. For this reason many states will not endorse any ex cept Professional license. The Superintendent has the right to pay for all the help needed to su pervise the examination properly, and there should be no careless ness and indifference at this point. M. L. Brittain, State Superintendent of Schools. Her Left Side Hurt Mrs. Laura Beall, Plattsburg, Miss.; writes: “Last April I got in bad health, my left side hurt all the time.
