353. For the purpose of examining applicants for license, the said
Board of Osteopathic Examiners shall hold two stated meetings in each
year, due notice of which shall be made public, at such times and places
as the Board may determine. At said meetings a majority of the members
of the Board shall constitute a quorum thereof; but the examination may
be conducted by a committee of one or more members of the Board of
Examiners, duly authorized by said Board; but no license to practice
osteopathy shall be granted on an affirmative vote of less than three. Said
examinations shall be conducted in writing, in accordance with the rules
and regulations prescribed by the State Board of Osteopathic Examiners
and may be supplemented by practical examinations at the bedside in avail-
able eleemosynary or other institution, the laboratory, and by practical
tests upon the human cadaver, and shall embrace the subjects named in
Section 356 of this Article. After each such examination the committee
having charge thereof, shall, without unnecessary delay, act upon the same.
An official report of such action, signed by each acting member of said
committee of examiners, stating the examination average of each candidate
in each branch, the general average, and the result of the examination,
whether successful or unsuccessful, shall be transmitted to the said State
Board of Osteopathic Examiners. Said report shall embrace all the examin-
ation papers, questions and answers thereto, and such written reports
as result from the practical tests as hereinbefore specified. All such
examination papers and reports shall be kept for reference and inspection,
for a period of not less than five years. The Board shall keep a record of its
proceedings, and a register of all applicants for license; giving the name
and location of the institution granting the applicant the degree of doctor
of, or diplomat in osteopathy; the date of his or her diploma; and also
whether the applicant was rejected or granted a license, and the number
of the license granted. The record and register shall be prima facie of all
matters recorded therein.

An. Code, see. 295. 1914, ch. 786.

354. All fees provided by this sub-title shall be paid in advance to the
Treasurer of the Board, to be by him held as fund for the use of the State
Board of Osteopathic Examiners. The compensation and expenses of the

in the opinion of said board, to discharge its duties under, and to enforce the
law, shall be paid out of such fund upon the warrant of the President and
Secretary of said Board; and fines as herein provided. The salaries shall be
