While, however, after Se t•ember 1 next the grants on accommodation and equipment will be based upon the high school regulatiians, the date on which these regulations must be fully com- plied with will be determined by the minister according to local condi- tions. It is pointed out that, while uncle- the changed conditions the grants to the grade. "A" schools will in noise cases be smaller than before, en alternative is presented, While a continuation school can only claim tare; from the supporters of such a school,. a high school can look for support by all ,the ratepayers of a high- school district and where in an organized county, the county and ad- t jaunt counties are liable for support.
