Money for Hall County Teachers.
Prof. T. H. Robertson has received
the checks for the Hall county teachers
for their salaries for January. They
did not get their pay as early as was
expected because of lack of funds in
the state treasury. As soon as the
teachers call at Prof. Robertson’s office
they will receiye their pay. The fol
lowing information relative to the pay
ment of teachers, taken from Wednes
day’s Atlanta Journal, will be read
with interest:
It is not expected that the full
amount available now will be asked
for, since on account of the unprece
dentedly bad weather that has pre
vailed during almost* all of the year,
the schools, especially in the r ural dis
tricts, could not be operated regularly
and for this reason the money that is
available has not, in some instances,
been earned. * *
The machinery which the law pro
vides for the making and approving of
the itemized expense accounts is very
complete. First, the individual teach
er sends to his county school commis
sioner his itemized report of work
done. From these reports the com
missioner makes out his expense ac
count, which must be audited, item by
item, by the county board of educa
tion, a certificate of whose approval is
attested by the signature of the presi
dent of the county board of education.
These accounts are then sent to the
state school commissioner, who care
fully audits them.
In addition to this the law requires
that the accounts of the county- school
commissioner shall be audited by the
grand jury of his county.
