HARRY W. NICE, GOVERNOR. 109

29-K. Registration forms or cards shall consist of an equal
number of original cards or loose-leaf pages of one color and
duplicate cards or loose-leaf pages of another color which
shall be of a size adequate to contain the information required
by Section 18 of this Article. Provision shall be made either
on the front or back of the registration cards or loose-leaf
pages for recording the fact that registered voters have or
have not voted at each general or primary election, and space
shall be provided for such recording for a period of not less
than twelve years. When a voter votes either at a primary
or general election, the letter "V" shall be written in the
proper space. Provision shall also be made on the front or
back of the registration cards or loose-leaf pages for showing
subsequent changes in address.

29-L. The Supervisors of Election shall supply the boards
of registry with the registration cards or loose-leaf pages and
any other forms required in the same manner as they have
heretofore supplied registration books and the registration of
voters shall be conducted in every particular as elsewhere
prescribed by law, except that cards or loose-leaf pages shall
be used instead of books. The Supervisors of Election shall
also supply for each precinct a book, alphabetically arranged,
in which shall be recorded the name, address, sex and color
of each person registered, said books to be in substitution for
the alphabetical lists prescribed by Section 18 of this Article.
If any applicant for registration is found to be disqualified, a
red line shall be drawn through his name and through the
other entries on the same line in said book, and the original
and duplicate cards shall be marked "Cancelled, " and a memo-
randum as to the cause of disqualification shall be made on
said cards. When such cards or loose-leaf pages have been
duly filled out and both the original and duplicate registration
cards have been signed by the applicant for registration in the
presence of the four registrars, and returned to the Board
of Supervisors of Election, which shall be done before the end
of any week in which any registration shall take place, the
original and duplicate cards shall be filed in different filing
cases or loose-leaf binders. The original forms shall be ar-
ranged by precincts in alphabetical order and shall constitute
the precinct register for use in polling places on election day.
The duplicate forms shall constitute the permanent office
record of the Board and shall not be open to public inspec-
tion except in the presence of a clerk of the Board and shall
not be removed from the office of the Board except on order
of Court. The precinct books shall be returned to said Board
of Supervisors at the close of the first four days of registra-
tion, and again at the close of the last two days of registra-
