All teachers applying for certificates, whether by examination or
otherwise, must do so by use of blanks supplied from the county superin

An applicant may obtain a Provisional General High School certifi
cate by passing successfully an examination, in which questions of a gen
eral nature based on a two-year approved college course are given.
An applicant who has qualified for a Provisional General High School
certificate may take an examination of a more intensive nature on one or
more of certain groups of studies, and, if successful, receive a Provisional
Special High School certificate. In this case the subjects in which he shows
proficiency are named in the certificate. These groups are the following:
1. Mathematics: Arithmetic, Algebra, Plane and Solid Geometry, Trigo
nometry. 2. English: Grammar, Composition and Rhetoric, English and
American Literature. 3. Language: Latin, Greek, French, Spanish, Ger
man (Take any one.) 4. Science: Agriculture, Biology (Elementary
Physiology, Botany, Zoology), Physics, and Chemistry. (Take any two.)
5. History: Ancient, Modern, United States, and Civics.
A graduate of an approved Normal School, or other school, the prescrib
ed curriculum of which extends two years at least beyond the high school and
the course completed includes Psychology three hours a week for one year,
School Management three hours a week for a half year, History of Education
three hours a week for one-half year, and observation and teaching three
hours a week for a half year is entitled to a Provisional Normal certificate,
A graduate having received a Bachelor’s degree from an approved
college is entitled to a College certificate, provided the courses taken include
od 18 semester hours in work in teaching, supervision, administration, and
observation preparatory to teaching.
Provisional certificates may be converted into Professional 'certificates
after three years pf successful teaching and the teacher's having received
a certain amount of Normal training. As I understand it,, a first giade
General Elementary certificate may be professionalized by attending, three
summer terms at approved Normals.
Provisional certificates are good for three years, 'professional certifi
cates for seven, and by continual teaching and study for life.
A first grade General Elementary certificate authorizes one to teach
through the first six grades and by special permission in the Junior High
School. Holders of General Elementary certificates of the third or second
grade may teach in the first six grades only.
A General High School certificate authorizes the teacher to teach-in
the Junior High School and by special permission in tj(s Senior High School.
A Special High School certificate permits one to teach in the senior
High School and by special permission the subjects named in the certificate
in the Junior College.
A Normal or a College certificate authorizes one to teach in Junior
or Senior High Schools.
Teachers who feel unprepared to answer the high school questions in
the examination for a first grade General Elementary certificate and expect
to answer only the questions dealing with the elementary subjects with the
hope of winning a second grade General Elementary certificate are urged
to attend the special state Institute at the Fifth District A. & M. School
at Monroe. A most thorough review of the elementary subjects will be
given by six expert instructors. Teachers will be greatly benefited in get
ting good methods in teaching there, since actual children will be taught for
observation. Write Principal J. Henry Walker, Walker Park, Monroe.
Other teachers should attend the six weeks’ summer terms at the
State Normal, Athens, or at the G. S. C. W„ Milledgeville, or at some other
good college. Dr. J. S. Stewart, Superintendent Summer School, Athens,
■writes that teachers who attend the summer term there will get reduced
lailroad fare, if they apply?
The term at Monroe will begin July 1 and continue throughout the
month. The whole cost for board, lights, lectures, and the application fee of
one dollar is only $20.00. The summer term at the Normal Schools begins
June 9th or 10th.
Teachers should file applications immediately with the county super
intendent. But those who attend a summer term at Monroe or elsewhere
should file their application with the school until the end of the term
in order to enter the credits made.
The next state examination will be held August 1 and 2. They will
be held as usual at Lawrenceville, for this county, and at the summer
schools, but the papers will be sent to office of the State Superintendent to
be examined by a special board.
No teacher under eighteen years of age will be given a’cerl ificate.
Remember there will be no more renewals of licenses, therefore no
more examinations on Reading Courses. Teachers with first grade certifi
cates expiring may have them converted into the new form certificates as
already explained.
In case the county superintendent is convinced that any tee.cher will
not have time either to prepare for an examination, or to collect data con
cerning her scholastic and professional training, her certificate will be ex
tended for one year. No worthy teacher need have any fear of the new plan.

SUCCESSFUL MILK CAMPAIGN
IN BEN+ON COUNTY, IOWA
By starting with a community
meeting in every one of twenty-four
communities in the county, a very
successful milk utilization campaign
was carried on in Benton county,
lowa, through the efforts of thq
home demonstration agent and the
state milk utilization specialist. A
total of 9,986 persons was reached
through these meetings, each of
which included a trained local wo
man speaker, a program arranged by
the community school, and the judg
ing of milk posters made by the
school children.
The local farm bureau cooperated
with the school in arranging meet
ings, and a health playlet, pageant,
or song was given by each school as
part of its program. Such titles as
“The Queen of Foods,” “Doctor and
Patient,” “Fairies of Healthlapd,”
“The Carpenters’ Union,” and “Dr.
Milk Bottle” show the type of en
tertainment given. A business men’s
club offered prizes of 50 cents and
25 cents for the best and next best
posters in each school, and prizes
ranging from $5 down to $1 for the
best posters when all the winners in
the county competed with each
other.
Another feature of the milk- util
ization campaign, according to a re
port received, was a survey of the
children in the county to learn hoW
many did or did not drink milk and
how many were accustomed to
drinking tea and coffee. Every
town in the county had one or more
exhibits in store windows, emphasiz
ing the value of milk in the diet.

The home demonstration agent fur
nished the suggestions for these ex
hibits and the local people carried
them out. Lodges, business men,
physicians, the Red Cross, the farm
bureau, and the schools all gave
valuable assistance in the campaign
and helped to make it a success.
In connection with the follow-up
work after the campaign was over,
a milk booth was set up at the coun
ty picnic, and was patronized by
hundreds of visitors.
