328 HEALTH. [ART. XLIII
1916, ch. 173, sec. 8.
311. From and after April 4, 1916, any person not heretofore
authorized to practice chiropody in this State and desiring to enter
upon such practice, shall file with the said Board of Chiropody Exam-
iners, upon payment of a fee of Fifteen Dollars, a written application
for examination, together with satisfactory proof that the applicant is
not less than twenty-one years of age, is of good moral character and
has obtained a preliminary education which is equivalent to two years
instruction in a high school. The fact that such instruction has been
received by the applicant must be evidenced by a certificate satisfactory
to the said Board of Chiropody Examiners. Such applicant must also,
before presenting him or herself for examination, be a graduate of a
reputable and legally incorporated school of chiropody, acceptable to the
Board, or must, (in addition to the preliminary education above set
forth) present a certificate from a duly licensed chiropodist practicing
in this State, stating that he has worked under such chiropodist, as his
preceptor for a period of one year prior to the making of such applica-
tion. Thereupon the said applicant shall be subjected to an examina-
tion.
1916, ch. 173, sec. 9.
312. Any one who shall practice or attempt to practice chiropody
in this State without having complied with the provisions of this sub-
title shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction thereof shall
be fined not less than Fifty Dollars nor more than Two Hundred Dol-
lars, and in default of payment of such fine shall be imprisoned for
not less than thirty nor more than ninety days. Such fines, when col-
lected, are to be paid into the treasury of the State of Maryland.
Nothing in this sub-title, however, shall be construed to interfere with
physicians in the discharge of their professional duties.

whose license is revoked is registered for any of the following causes:
(a.) If any person, who, in any affidavit or examination required of
an applicant for examination, certificate or registration under the laws
regulating the practice of chiropody, shall willfully make a false state-
