II. —Distribution of the Public Lirraries Subsidies according to Education Districts.

[Note. —The whole of tho vote of £6,000 was apportioned in the first instance, but after a majority of the payments had been made it was ascertained that part of the amount returned as " donations " by a certain library was actually rent, and therefore inadmissible for the purposes of the distribution. The deduction made in this case represents tho difference between the vote and tho amount shown as having been distributed.]
