QUALIFICATION.—A practitioner of medicine must obtain a license from the State board of health (Code 1892, s. 3,243). Application is made in writing; and an examination is made in anatomy, chemistry, obstetrics, materia medica, physiology, pathology, surgery, and hygiene, and if the applicant is found by the board to possess sufficient learning in those branches, and of good moral character, the board issues a license to practise medicine, signed by each member who approves (_ib._, s. 3,244). The application must state the applicant’s full name, place of residence, and post-office address, nativity and age, time spent in medical studies, name and post-office address of the preceptor under whom his medical studies were pursued, the courses of medical lectures attended, the name of medical schools attended; if a graduate of a medical college, the name thereof; the time spent in a hospital, the time spent in the practice of medicine, if any, the school or system of practice chosen, and references as to his personal character (_ib._, s. 3,245).
