BANQUET GIVEN FOR MEMBERS OF TEACHERS SCHOOL Rutherford County's First Teacher Training School Brought to a Close Friday Night. Rutherfordton, May 1. An en joyable banquet was held at the Isothermal hotel here Friday evening by members of the Rutherford Coun ty Training Department.

Mr. Luther Edwards, and Prof. E. S Teague, of Spindale. Following t}ie dinner short talks were made by Mrs. Johnson, Prof. Erwin, Mr. Edwards and members of the teacher training class, and by Miss Frances Whitney. This closed the first year's course in teacher training in this county. During the year ten members have been enrolled. The school is held for the benefit of high school grad uates and others who hold Elemen tary B. certificates and wish to raise them to an A. The department is operated under tne State Depart ment of Education. The Teacher Training department is very well equiped and more than meets itio standards of the State Department of Education in this respect. Excellent facilities are available for practice teaching in Rutherfordton and Spin dale Elementary schools. Since Rutherford county is not employing any new teachers holding less than Elementary A certificate, an unusual opportunity is offered teachers *to meet the new training requirements at a minimum expense to themselves. It is expected that a large number of High school grad uates from the standard high school of the county will enroll next veai and also that many experienced teachers now holding Elementary B certificates will avail themselves of the opportunity to raise their certi ficates to the new minimum require ments The Courier classified ads.

In other words reducing our overhead in this department to an ab -3 n solute minimum is the secret of HOW WE DO IT. 3 a a \ Who Ever Heard of ALL WOOL SUITS at 3 ! $|Q-50 \ IN THIS DAY AND TIME?
