be determined by the board of county school commissioners; provided,
that no high school which fulfills the conditions under (b), (c), (d)
and (e) and is now on the list of approved "high schools" shall be
excluded from this group, within two years from the first day of June,

required by the state board of education; provided, that the salary of
such additional teacher or teachers shall be paid wholly by the said
board of county school commissioners, and in the schools of the second
group, where the course of instruction has been so extended to a four-
year course, the graduates shall receive the same recognition as gradu-
ates of schools of the first group. No promotions of high-school pupils
from one grade to another or graduation, shall be made without the
approval of the principal and the county superintendent.

or some person designated by him, to make an annual inspection of all
high schools receiving State aid, and also such other schools as make
application, through their respective county superintendents, to receive
said State aid. He shall, on or before the 15th day of August of each
year, prepare a list of high schools, designating the group to which
each belongs, the amount of State aid to which each is entitled, and to
whom same should be paid. The preparation of said list shall be based
on information obtained through the annual inspection, written reports
of the principal or county superintendent, or other reliable sources.
The superintendent's report of such schools shall be submitted to the
state board of education for approval, and when approved, said board
shall certify same to the comptroller of the treasury, on or before the
1st day of October of each year, and said comptroller of the treasury
shall issue his warrant upon the treasurer of the State in equal quar-
terly installments in each and every year at the time when the public
school tax is now or may hereafter be distributed, payable to the order
of the treasurers of the respective boards of county school commis-
sioners, or the board of commissioners of public schools of Baltimore
city, for such sum or sums as they are entitled to receive under the
provisions of this article, and shown by the certified list of high schools
as aforesaid; same to be paid out of the levy for public schools; pro-
vided, however, that the apportionment authorized in this section for
October 1, 1910, and January 1, 1911, shall be paid out of the ordinary
receipts of the treasury; and provided further, that any high school
receiving State aid, under the provisions of this article, shall forfeit
its right to receive State aid under the provision of any other act or
resolution of the general assembly of Maryland; provided, that noth-
ing in this section shall be construed to repeal any appropriation made
