Syllabus

<p>Schools and School Districts — Building Site — Meeting of Electors — Notice—Sufficiency. The notice of a meeting of the voters of a school district to decide upon the selection of a school building site and authorize its purchase need not state the hours at which polls will be opened, as voting by ballot is not required, and a notice fixing the time of the meeting at one o’clock p. m. is sufficient.</p> <p>Statutes — Construction. The construction placed upon a statute by the department of education, long acquiesced in, should be given weight in its interpretation.</p>
