Remark 1. In making out the rate bill for a term of School, the amount of public money to be applied to the term is first deducted from the amount of the Teacher's wages, and any balance remaining to be collected, is apportioned to the several persons having sent to School during the term, in proportion to the number of days sent by each.

Remark 2. Any money received for tuition of children attending School from without the District, under any rule established by the District, or by the District Board, is to be applied like the public money in the reduction of the Teacher's wages; but

Remark 3. In case children are received into the District to attend School, without any condition having been imposed, the persons sending them should be embraced in the rate bill, and the amount due from them should be collected as in other cases.

Remark 4. In case it becomes necessary to enforce a collection, the Assessor should post the following notice in three public places in the township, at least ten days previous to sale:
