the pupil has been successfully vaccinated, and also the names of those
pupils who have been enrolled at any previous term in any school of
the county or in the city of Baltimore, 'as the case may be, as success-

sum of fifty cents for every such successful vaccination on the presen-
tation of the order and certification of the teacher that such vaccina-
tion has been performed; provided, that in the counties or in the city
of Baltimore, when vaccine physicians are appointed or contracts made

physicians' certified orders of teachers shall not apply. Any teacher
neglecting or refusing to comply with the provisions of this section
shall on conviction thereof before any justice of the peace having juris-
diction over paid offense, be fined ten dollars for each and every offense.
