   other law of this state declared to be a felony.
   
   (b) 1. Every person convicted of a misdemeanor for a violation of any
   of the provisions of Sections 10-101 through 14-121 or Sections 16-101
   through 16-114 of this title for which another penalty is not provided
   shall for a first conviction thereof be punished by a fine of not less
   than Ten Dollars ($10.00) nor more than One Hundred Dollars ($100.00)
   or by imprisonment for not more than ten (10) days; for a second such
   conviction within one (1) year thereafter such person shall be
   punished by a fine of not less than Twenty Dollars ($20.00) nor more
   than Two Hundred Dollars ($200.00) or by imprisonment for not more
   than twenty (20) days or by both such fine and imprisonment; upon a
   third or subsequent conviction within one (1) year after the first
   conviction such person shall be punished by a fine or not more than
   Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) or by imprisonment for not more than
