COUNTY EDUCATIONAL NOTES.

Janper county’s recently selected agricultural agent arrived last Monday morning and assumed the duties of the office. Mr. D. M. Mawhorter is a young man of about thirty years of age and is amply qualified to do the work of the office. He wishes every farmer in Jasper county would make his acquaintance at once so that he can begin Administering to the farmers’ needs in this county. The teachers of Jasper county have responded to the request of the county superintendent that each teacher make a state license even though the teacher has made a county license. The following list of state applicants will receive their state licenses within a few days. The licenses range from thirty-six months back to twelve. A list of the successful applicants are: Mabel Worland, Rensselaer; Bernice Myers, Wheatfield,: Daisy C. Knaur, Rensselaer; Mildred Rush, Rensselaer; George Hammerton, DeMotte; Elsie P.„ Benson, Mt. Ayr; Millie Hoover, Francesville; Gladys Ogle, Rensselaer: Gertrude Besse, Remington; El”ie Zeller, Fair Oaks; Mamie C- Reed. Remington; Freda M. Ferguson, Wheatfield; Frank H. Woemer, Rensselaer; Grace M. Norris. Rensselaer; Helen L.

C. Campbell, Fair Oaks; Edna Reed, Rensselaer. This is the longest list of successes that it has been the fortune of the present incumbent in the office of cqunty superintendent to enter on the records for Jasper coutny. The endorsement of the state department of the intellectual status of Jasper county teachers represents one angle of efficiency that should stimulate the pride in our teaching peraonnel. One fact wor-

thy of consideration is that not one applicant from Jasper county for March failed. There were seven other applicants whose names do not appear above who received conditions in one or two subjects which will need be removed on April 24.
