the First Schedule hereto, stating therein the Christian, or
first, name and surname of such candidate, together with
the other particulars required by such Schedule; and such
nomination paper shall be signed by not less than two persons
duly qualified to vote at such elections, and also by the
person therein named as a candidate, accepting such nomina-
tion. Such nomination paper must be lodged with the
Registrar before 4 o'clock in the afternoon of the day next
preceding the day fixed for nominations.

6. The Registrar shall, in the event of there not being a
   greater number of persons nominated than are required to
   fill the vacancies created, make a return to the Board and
   declare such person or persons to be duly elected member or
   members of the Board; but, if the number of persons nomin-
   ated is greater than the number of persons required to fill
   such vacancies, a poll shall be taken, and the Registrar
   shall cause voting papers to be printed in the form
   of the Second Schedule hereto, and shall sign each
   paper and cause such to be enclosed in an envelope, not
   fastened, with the name and address of the Registrar printed
   thereon, and one of such voting-papers and printed envelopes
   shall be sent by post, under a fastened cover, to the regis-
   tered or last-known address of each and every registered
   pharmaceutical chemist of New Zealand resident in New
   Zealand.

7. The Registrar shall, on the day named in such adver-
   tisement for holding any election, proceed, in the presence of
   any scrutineers appointed by any candidate, to open the
   envelopes which have been returned to him with his printed
   address thereon, and to take out the voting-papers therein
   contained; and if he is satisfied, after comparing each of the
   signatures in such voting-papers with the signatures of the
   voters in the Signature Book kept by him, that each vote is
   properly given he shall proceed to ascertain the number of
   such votes for each candidate, and as soon as conveniently
   may be after the day of holding such election the Registrar
   shall give public notice, by advertisement in the New Zealand
   Gazette, of the number of votes given to each candidate, and
   shall declare the candidates, not exceeding the number of
   vacancies to be filled up, who have received the greatest
   number of votes to be duly elected as members of the
   Pharmacy Board of New Zealand; and, if two or more candi-
   dates shall have received an equal number of votes, the
   Registrar shall in each case have the casting vote.

8. If any voter shall suffer to remain upon any voting-
   paper a greater number of names not struck out than the
   number of members to be elected, or shall fail to attach his
   signature thereto, the vote given by such voter shall be void
   and of no effect, and shall not be counted by the Registrar.
   The voter shall enclose such voting-paper in an envelope
   furnished to him with the printed address of the Registrar
   thereon, and shall deliver or post the same so that it shall be
   received by the Registrar before the day fixed for holding
   such election.

9. If any person who shall duly have become a candidate
   for such election and two of the persons having signed the
   paper nominating him shall be desirous that he retire from
   such candidature before the day of holding the election, such
   candidate and the persons aforesaid, not later than eight
   clear days before the day of holding such election, may sign
   and deliver a notice, in the form of the Third Schedule hereto,
   stating that such candidate so retires, and the Registrar, on
   receipt of such notice shall omit the name of such person so
   retiring from the voting-paper; and, if the number of candi-
   dates shall by such retirement be reduced to the number of
   members to be elected, the Registrar shall declare the
   remaining members duly elected.

10. Each candidate shall be entitled to appoint in writing
    one scrutineer, to be present on the day of holding the
    election when the Registrar shall open the envelopes con-
    taining the voting-papers.
