For without tne support of the Marshall valuation, the poorer districts cannot ever hope to nave anyining luce equal education al opportunities, and it is an tadefnn. sible argument so far as the rest nf the county is concerned to attempt to build a school system on the district oasis as Mr. McDevitt undertakes to set forth.
