held that there is no right of entry, on the breach of such condi-
tion or conditions, in the person or persons or corporation to

place of business of said educational or charitable corporation
first mentioned in this section is located, shall have full power
and authority, in its discretion, to enforce compliance by said

quest, so that it may not be in the power of said corporation to
continue to hold said property without also complying with
said condition, conditions or terms.

crees, order or orders, as may be necessary or appropriate to
the enforcement or compliance with said condition, conditions
or terms, and that it shall be the duty of the State's Attorney
aforesaid, after notice to him of disregard or non-compliance
of such corporation with said condition, conditions or terms,
to proceed as aforesaid, unless said grantor or donor be living,

or donor shall file and bona fide prosecute such bill or bills,
