W63 TO THE READER 66 This edition of the School Code comprises all the school laws now in force. The sections are arranged in numerical order. The "Comments" upon the dif ferent sections will be found on pages 364 and beyond. Suggestive forms for school officers will be found on pages 400 and beyond. Reference made in the 'Comments' refer to sections of the statutes. The form in which the school laws are now printed promises to be much less expensive than the form which has been common for so many years. This plan also conforms to the plan followed in printing the statutes of Wisconsin. It is hoped that familiarity with the present arrangement may meet general approval. Any school officer having a code in his possession should make it a spec`a` point to carry it with him to the school meeting. No statements of an officer or person present at a school meeting, even though such person may be engaged in a general law practice, can be safely accepted as authority on the law without reference to the particular statute involved. This code is the property of the school district and not of the school officer in whose care it is placed. This code and all records, books, etc., belonging to a school office must be handed over when a successor is elected or appointed. Ce&Gary State Superintendent. TABLE OF CONTENTS.
