That Section 3 which states that "a township board shall consist of not less than 3 nor more that ten members" be amended as follows The Township Board - shall consist of as many members as there are school sections in the Township, giving one represent- ative to each section, and that townships having 15 or more schools be given two boards. 2. That section 11 which states that "'all the assets and liabilities of the Boards of the several sections of the Township shall be vested in and assumed by the Township Board." be amended by adding that adjust- 'ments be made to protect the interests of those school sec- tions that have recently finished paying for new schools. - The ment is that, as the Township Schol Board would naturally un- dertake to spread the cost of education equally over the whole township, some sections that have already paid off the deben- ture debt for new schools might be required to commence bear- ing their share of the burden for new schools in adjacent sections that had neglected to keep their buildings in repair. 3.
