Faculty (State Medical Society), and the other representing the
Maryland State Homeopathic Medical Society. Each Board consists
of eight members appointed by their respective societies, two being
named each year to serve for a term of four years. (Code 1939, Art.
43, sec. 117.).

The function of the Boards is to teat the fitness of physicians for
the legal practice of medicine in this State and to issue licenses to
those qualified. Candidates applying to the Board representing the
Medical and Chirurgical Faculty must be graduates of medical schools
approved by the American Medical Association and the Association
of American Medical Colleges. Graduates of foreign medical schools
are considered individually. Examinations are held twice a year. The
qualification for practice is determined either by written examination
given by the Boards, or by recognition of license obtained after writ-
ten examination in a reciprocating state, or by endorsement of certifi-
cate of the National Board of Medical Examiners..

The Board of Examining Engineers was established in 1892 with

the Board was extended to include the entire State. The Board is
composed of two members appointed by the Governor for terms of
two years. The appointees must have had experience operating steam
engines, boilers, and stationary or portable engines. The Board ex-
amines applicants for certificates of proficiency to operate stationary
or portable engines. All certificates so issued must be renewed an-
nually by the Board. The members of the Board periodically inspect
all industries and places of business where licensed engineers are em-
ployed to determine their compliance with the law. The Board meets
Tuesdays and Fridays from 7 P. M. to 9 P. M. (Acts 1910, ch. 662)..
