<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>School Districts — Transportation of Children to and from School — Option of School Board. The statute to the effect that a school board shall provide transportation for pupils living three miles or more from the school, or in lieu thereof shall allow as compensation therefor a sum not less than fifteen cents per day, gives to the board the option of adopting either method to aid pupils living at that distance, and (at least in the absence of any special circumstances showing an unjust result) it may provide a conveyance for a part of them while making a money allowance to the rest.</p>
