122. At least thirty days before every State election the
attorney-general shall prepare full instructions for the guidance
of the voters of such election, as to obtaining ballots, as to
the manner of marking them, and as to obtaining new ballots
in place of those accidentally destroyed, with such other in-
structions as shall, in his opinion, be necessary and proper.
Said instructions shall be furnished by the secretary of State
to the several boards of supervisors of elections, who shall
respectively cause the same, together with copies of sections
66, 67 and 68 of this article, to be printed in large, clear type,
on separate cards, to be called "Cards of Instruction, " and said
board of supervisors shall furnish twelve of the same, with
ballots for use in each election precinct. They shall also cause
to be printed, on light cardboard or heavy-sized paper, ten
or more copies of the form of the ballot provided for each
voting place, at each election therein, of a considerably magni-
fied size, which shall be called "Specimen Ballots, " and the
same shall be furnished with the other ballots prepared for each
voting place. On the morning of said election the said super-
visors of elections shall cause to be conspicuously posted in
each polling place said cards of instruction and largely magni-
fied specimen ballots, and one of said cards of instruction shall
be fixed in each booth or voting compartment, and the said
specimen ballots shall be conspicuously displayed in said poll-
ing room and on the outside of the building wherein said voting
shall take place. Not less than three of said cards and three
of said specimen ballots shall be posted outside of the guard
rails, and not less than three of each of same shall be securely
and conspicuously posted on the outside of the building in
which the polls are held, before the balloting begins, in such
position that the same may be easily examined by the public.
It shall also be the duty of the several boards of supervisors
of elections, on the morning of said election, to cause to be
conspicuously posted in such polling place, and in each voting
booth of each polling place, separate tickets or lists contain-
ing the names of the candidates of each political party, with
a designation of the several offices for which they are candi-
dates, so that voters may thereby be aided in selecting the can-
didates for whom they wish to vote, and in marking the official
ballots accordingly. This section shall apply to Worcester,
