This section held not to impose a mandatory and imperative duty upon
the county school commissioners, under the circumstances, to keep a school
open; something is left to their judgment. The state board has power to
advise the school board with respect to a consolidation and to correct any
erroneous action it may take; the courts will not interfere. School Com-
missioners v. Morris, 123 Md. 402, 404.
