On the day fixed by law for the holding of the next general

this Act, in said county, or in any of the said Election Dis-
tricts thereof. The Supervisors of Elections shall cause to be
printed on the official ballots to be used at said election the
title of this Act, and underneath said title on separate lines

Bowling on Sunday", and a corresponding square or box to
the right of and opposite the words "Against Bowling on
Sunday", so that the said voters shall be able to designate
by a cross mark in the proper square or box his or her de-
cision for or against bowling on Sunday. If a majority of the
votes cast in any Election District on said question shall be
"For Bowling on Sunday" then this Act shall thereupon auto-
matically become effective immediately in said Election Dis-
trict or Election Districts. If a majority of the votes cast in
any Election District on said question shall be "Against Bowl-
ing on Sunday", then this Act shall be null and void and of
no effect whatsoever in any such Election District or Election
