local Tax Counuet..
These counties tax themselves in order that all -not some-of their schools may be improved. One by one others are adding themselves to the roll of the educational leaders who demonstrate thus practically their belief in the necessity for more and better training for the children. A few years ago only Chatham, Richmond, Bibb, and Glynn had county-wide local taxation:
1. Ben Hill 2. Bibb 3. Bryan 4. Burke 5. Butts 6. Camden 7. Chatham s .. Coffee 9. Columbia 10. Crisp 11. DeKalb 12. Echols 13. Emanuel 14. Fulton 15. Glynn 16. Hancock 17. Henry 18. Houston 19. Irwin 20. .Jasper

Through the generous aid of the General Edu-
cation Board we have been able to assign M. L.
Duggan as Rural School Agent and Geo. D. Godard
as Speciai Supervisor.
Mr. Duggan will do more inten;ive work than
heretofore, and will be assigned to a limited num-
ber of counties in the order of their application.
He will remain in each county for a month, and
will visit each school and community during that
time, making a survey of actu!'ll conditions and
possibilities. Mr. Godard is expected to emphasize the better
training of negro teachers, particularly giving at-
tention to industrial work and sanitation. Both,
however, are generously permitted to assist the
three regular institute conductors and the other
forces working for the advancement of educational
interests throughout the State.

System of Certification for Georgia Teachers.
In compliance with the law of 1911, the State Board of Education provides a system of certification for the teachers of the public schools. This work was partially accomplished during 1912 and is completed as follows:
I. LICENSE BY EXAMINATION ONLY.
1. Primary.
'l'he Primary license is Intended for those teach. ers doing the work of the first four classes. There are three grades-1, 2, 3,-for those averaging above 90%, 75%, and 50%, respectively. A license of 1st grade shall be valid for three years, of 2d grade for two years, and of third grade for one year. The Primary examination Is based on the following subjects: Reading, Writing, Spelling, Arithmetic (to percentage), Language Lessons and Composition, Elementary Geography and the l)ew Manual of Methods.
2. General Elementary.
In addition to the questions for the teachers engaged in primary work, applicants for the General Elementary license are required to take an examination upon tlie following subjects: Arithme. tic, Grammar, History (U. S.) and Civics, Geography, Physiology, and Agriculture. The grades, the respective averages for the same and the periods of validity shall be the same as for the Primary license.
Those teachers who attain first grade, either Primary or General Elementary, may renew their licenses on condition of three years' successful experience in teaching and the completion of the reading course. (See "Conditions Governing Renewals.")
Note.-The reading course for 1916 consists of Cubberley's Rural Life and F:ducation, Colgrove's, The Teacher and the School, and the Manual of Methods.
21
3. High School and Supervisory.
In addition to the above, provision is made for license to teach in a high school through a satisfactory examination passed on any three of the following groups, the three selected to include the subjects the holder of the license is permitted to teach:
(1) Mathematics: Arithmetic; Algebra, through
quadratics; Plane Geometry. (2) English: Grammar; Composition and Rhet-
oric; English and American Literature. (3) Science: Agriculture; Physics; Biology (Ele-
mentary Physiology, Botany, Zoology). (4) Languages: Latin, French, German, Spanish,
Greek. Take any two. (5) History: Ancient; Modern; English. In addition to these three groups elected from
the above the examination must include school management and methods of teaching high school subjects.
Note.-The questions on school management and methods for 1916 will be based upon the Manual of Methods, Cubberley's Rural Life and Education, and Hollister's High School Administration.
The examination for these certificates will be held at the same times and places as those for General Elementary license, the questions to be prepared and sent to the county or local superintendents who will conduct the examinations and issue licenses as in the case of General Elementary licenses.
An average of 90% on all subjects shall entitle the candidate to a license of first grade valid for three years; an average of 75%, to a license of second grade valid for two years; and an average of 60%, to a license of third grade valid for one year.
