    1-9  that is designated as a juvenile court.
   1-10        (b)  The board shall select one of its members to serve as
   1-11  chairman and chief administrative officer.  The chairman serves a
   1-12  one- or two-year term as determined by the board <The juvenile

    2-8  juvenile board of Coryell County.
    2-9        SECTION 2.  The importance of this legislation and the
   2-10  crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an
   2-11  emergency and an imperative public necessity that the
   2-12  constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several
   2-13  days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended,
   2-14  and that this Act take effect and be in force from and after its
   2-15  passage, and it is so enacted.
