OOOOOOOOOOOO tn the Senate a bill to revise and streamline the public school law. This bill implements a measure passed earlier which returned to local school boards complete au ttority over assignment and en rollment of school pupils. Contin uing this trend, the bill would re turn he title to school buses to lo cal school boards and permit loral officials to manage the transporta tion system, designate bus routes, and assign pupils to buses. The State would continue to foot the bill by allocating school bus funds to local administrative units on a formula based on the number of buses and bus miles operated. An other significant change would per. mit teachers to be paid in nine equal installments an don the same day each month. A proposal to permit local boards of education to deter mine how much of a supplemen tal school tax (voted by the dis trict) should be levied was soundly beaten on the floor, and the boards of couhty commissioners and city governing bodies were left as the final tax levying authorities. Re ported unfavorably were bills to 1 provide four year terms for county superintendents, 2 permit counties to establish capital outlay reserve funds, and 3 provide teach ers with five days of sick lcve each year. In lieu of appropriations for badly needed dormitories at ma jor state supported colleges.

J-' It -This Is The LavA SEALS; What la the effect of .placing a "seal" beside a person's signature to a contract? It makes an agreement without consideration binding, and it in creases the period within which a court action can be brought tor breach of the contract. . i - ."- ' ; The statute of limitations bars a rieht of action arising out of an oral contract or a written contract not under seal by the lapse of a shorter period of time than a right of ac tion arising out of a written con tract under seal. The v respective periods very somewhat In the dif ferent states. ... . ;,! ........: In North Carolina contracts not under seal must be sued upon with in ten years from a breach there of. This is why many contracts sup ported by a consideration are also under seal. Joe Brown promises under seal to give ten thousand dollars to Susie Smith on her twenty-first birth. a;.v. is the promise enforceable in a court of law? v Yes. The particular promise is binding though given out of friend ship and not in exchange for a valu able consideration.' A gratuitous promise under seal, where no actual consideration is bargained for, is enforceable be cause of the solemnity and for mality of seals. What is a seal? Originally a seal was an impres sion upon a piece of wax, a wafer, or any other tenancious substance capable of receiving an impression. In early times all persons of im portance had seals. The idea of sealing contracts originated in a day when many of the noblemen were illiterate. Agreements made by knights and lords were usually validated by pressing a signet ring against a lump of wax placed at the bottom of the document. The seal took the place of the signature. It was a personal thing. Any written promise sealed and delivered to another was en forced in the courts. The sealing of a document was a solemn and de liberate act. Seals have lost much of their for mer dignity and importance. Tnrtnv In manv fitatps t.hpra Is A I sufficient sealing when there is af fixed to the signature a scaall or scrawl containing the word "seal". A scroll or scrawl alone has held sufficient in some states. The mere written or printed word "seal" or letters "L.S." (meaning Loco Sig nilli the location of the seal) has evn been held a seal. Many of the printed contracts to day have the word "seal" already printed beside the place the con tracting party is to put his signature. The person signing, thereby adopts this seal as hie own.
