This makes an average tax levy
Of 60c on each 500 in value of
property in addition 10 the poll tax.
II We add the poll tax TO the prop
erty tax the sum would together
amount TO an average tax for the
entire State. outside Of Wilmington.
Of 75c on each 500 in value Of
property. The total expenditures for
same districts were about twice that
sum. the addition being supplied
from other sources of income, chiefly
State appropriation.
Law OF 1921.
The new law does not hold the
local school district nor the special
school district responsible for levy
ing and collecting taxes for school
purposes. Whenever appropriations
OF the State Legislature, in accord
ance with the official school budget
Of the district or the special school
district. are not sufficient TO provide

All moneys for school purposes ar.
ranged for under the law will come
from two sources:
/. The 25c. tax on each S10(
worth Of property in the state, the
same to be levied by the Levy Cour
in the county and held after collec-
tion by the Receiver of Taxes anc
made out to the districts as directed
by the state Board Of Education.
.. From appropriations made b.
/ the General Assembly at its biennia
session. Such appropriations tC
provide amply for the official state
school Budget to be adopted by the
State Board Of Education and rec
commended TO the Legislature as the
basis for such appropriation.
All school expenditures within tn,

the terms OF the official schoo

Law OF 1921.
The ofliciary in the special school
districts under the new law are the
same as those under the law Of
1920 with the following exceptions.
The law provides that they shall
have a superintendent Of schools
who shall be their executive officer.
whose qualifications shall be gradu-

least two years experience in ad-

other qualifications as the State

REVENUE?
Law OF 1920.
In addition 10 State aid FOR
schools which during the current
y ear was estimated to amount 90
$637.54S. outside Of the city of
/ Wilmington. the schools are sup

/ levied by all special school districts
on property therein as other taxes
arc levied and in the county outside
the special school districts and viii

other taxes arc levied. The taxes are
/ levied by the Levy Court in accord
ance with an official budget by the
/ Special School District Boards of
Education and by the County Boards
OF Education. The money for school,
in the local district is. therefore
raised by general taxation upon al
portions OF the county under the ad.
ministrauon OF the County Board of
Education. in accordance with th'
budget OF the County Board OF Edu

Under this system the tax levy 10

group OF paragraphs-Secti 80 to
80. taken directly from the para
graphs assigned in the present law
to the County Boards OF Education
and here assigned TO the State Board
Of Education. are attached TO Arti-
Gle III, which deals with Special
School Districts. They should have
been attached to Article II since
they concern the county schools un-
der the State Board OF Education.
Third-There are three articles in
the 1921 law that appear TO have no
parallel in the law Of 1920:
VII Auditor Of Accounts.

But these articles prove upon ex-
animation to contain no new mate

the present context and given a sep
arate number and heading.
Fourth-Two articles having the

The Laws Compared.
The many elements that go into
the composition Of a good school
system are so numerous and so
varied as TO make il difficult. with
out copying the entire matter in out
line. TO place the system properly
before the reader There are, how
ever. four subjects Of vital impor-
tance that briefly outlined. will give
the reader a satisfactory impression
Of the character and quality OF the
| system. They are:
| /. What ofiiciary are required?
2. What is the system Of revenue
g. Who holds the title to prop
erty and who controls and operate es
the system?
4. What are the fixed standards
and how are they determined?
This article will first give in order
the answers which the Law Of 1926
and the Law Of 1921 make to these
four questions; and then will cal
attention to the main differences be
tween the two.
