Every person to whom a certificate of registration has been granted shall cause the same to be recorded in the office of the clerk of the city or town where he principally carries on the practice of optometry; and if he removes his principal office from one city or town to another in the commonwealth, he shall, before engaging in practice in such other city or town, notify the board in writing of the place where he is to engage in practice, and obtain from the clerk of the city or town where his certificate is recorded a certified copy thereof and file the same with the clerk of such other city or town.
