260 ELECTIONS. [ART. XXXTII
tions, shall also be uniform in style and appearance throughout the bal-
lot; and it shall be the duty of the Board of Supervisors of Elections
for Baltimore City and of the Board of Supervisors of Elections for
each county, to cause all ballots to be used by the voters- of said city,
rani the several counties, to be printed in manner and form as aforesaid.
On the back and outside of all ballots shall be printed the words "Offi-
cial Ballot For," followed by the designation of the polling place for
which it is prepared, the date of the election and a fac simile of the
signature of the President of the Board of Supervisors of Elections,
by whom the ballots have been prepared. Said ballot shall be printed
on the same leaf, with a detachable stub or coupon one inch high and
three inches wide, above the upper right-hand corner of the ballot, and
binding on the upper edge thereof, but separated therefrom by a line
running along the entire width of said coupon. Upon said coupon shall
be printed the words "Voter's Name," with a line drawn thereunder for
writing said name, and under the said line the words "Number of
Voter," followed by a blank space for the insertion of number. Before
distribution said ballot shall be so folded in marked creases that no
part of the marks or printing thereon, excepting that upon the back and
outside, and that upon the detachable stub or coupon, shall be visible,
and so that the folded ballot shall be of uniform width and length and
of proper width to be deposited in the ballot boxes. All ballots when
printed shall be folded as above provided, and fastened together in
convenient numbers in packages, books or blocks, so that each ballot
may be detached and removed separately. The said Boards of Super-
visors of Elections, respectively, shall four days at least prior to the
day of any election in their respective counties and in said city, cause
to be conspicuously and securely posted in one or more public places in
each voting precinct of their respective counties, or of said city, accu-
rate sample copies of the ballots to be used in such precinct, at the then
approaching election; such sample copies shall be printed on light card-
board or heavy sized paper of considerably magnified dimensions, and
one of them at least shall be placed upon the exterior of each building
in which the polls will be held, so that the same can be readily seen and
examined by persons passing on the street or road.
59. Repealed. (Act of 1918, ch. 51.)
1916, ch. 293.

same day, at which time the polls shall be closed. And said Section 63
of this Article shall apply to the holding of General and Primary Elec-
tions in said districts in so far as same is not in conflict with the pro-
visions of this Section.
