        A review of the statutes controlling these matters,
setting them forth in their chronol.ogloalorder, shows that
the 44th Legislature in 1935 enaoted Article 2746b, same
being a general statute applylng to school districts, both
oommon and Independent. The act in question repealed by
implication both Artioles 2776 and 2746 In so far as they
conflicted with it. Said aot beoams efieotive 3kroh 22,
1935, and from that date until the amendment of Artiole 2746
by the 45th Legislature, effeotive April 29, 1937, all expense
inourred in connection with or incidental to any school dls-
triot eleotion was payable out of the available maintenance
Suad belonging to such district.
