Charles M. Blue Gets State License On July Examination.

Charles M. Blue, one of the Jasper county teachers who had failed for a number of months to procure a teachers’ license, sent his July papers to the state superintendent and Tuesday received his grades which entitle him to a year's license. The Republican suggests that trustees of Jasper county employ Jasper county teachers wherever possible, thus overcoming as much as possible the fact that so many outside teachers are brought here to teach. It means everything that is embodied in home patronage, for the money thus disbursed by the trustees is expended right at home instead of being taken away and spent at other places. Trustees should, in fact, hold schools open for home teachers until after the last examination has disclosed that they have failed to secure passing grades.
