Section 21 of this law reads as follows: Every person who shall violate or willfully fail, neglect or refuse to comply with any provision of this act shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and a second offense shall be punished by a fine of not less than twenty-five dollars, and for a third and each subsequent offense shall be punished by a fine of not less than fifty dollars or more than two-hundred-fifty dollars or by imprisonment for not more than 90 days, or by both such fine and imprisonment, and every person who shall willfully furnish any false information for any certificate required by this act, or who shall make any false statement in any such certificate, shall be guilty of a gross misdemeanor.
