ness and efficiency of such school. The school board, in its discre-
tion, may charge such pupils tuition fees. The school board in any
county or city where day schools are conducted for eight or more
months each year may, in its discretion, establish and conduct night
schools to which may be admitted pupils regardless of age. The

to make regulations whereby the children of one county may attend
school in an adjoining county, or an adjoining city.
