GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF NORTH CAROLINA

RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA
1917
NOTE
This bulletin is issued in compliance with chapter 202 of the Public Laws
of 1915, which requires the Legislative Reference Librarian to keep the
Revisal of 1905 revised to date. Bulletin No. 1, issued in 1915, contains the
amendments enacted from 1907 to 1915, inclusive. This bulletin contains the
amendments enacted at the 1917 session of the General Assembly.
In considering the laws enacted in relation to this bulletin, they may be
divided into three general classes, as follows :
1. The chapters which in terms amend certain chapters, sections, or subsec-
tions of the Revisal.
These chapters have been brought forward in this bulletin and are arranged
according to the section numbers of the Revisal, and in each case the chapter
number is given so that reference may be made to the session laws. These
amendments have been printed so that they may be clipped and pasted in the
Revisal, or the bulletin may be used as a supplement in its present form.
2. The chapters of a public, public-local or private nature which are not
amendatory of any chapter or section of the Revisal.
In order to supplement the Revisal amendments and enable the user of this
bulletin to locate these statutes, a reference index has been inserted as an
Appendix, which gives the chapter numbers of all laws enacted at the 1917
session of the General Assembly except the chapters which amend the Revisal.
This Appendix will be particularly helpful in locating all the 1917 statutes
which do not in terms amend the Revisal.
3. The chapters covering subjects upon which no legislative action had been
taken prior to the publication of the Revisal, which are brought forward in
this bulletin.
There are a number of laws published in this bulletin which are not amend-
atory of the Revisal, but they have been deemed of sufficient public interest
to warrant their publication for free distribution. Other laws, equally or
possibly more important, such as State-wide road laws, the municipal acts,
the automobile law, and others, are not brought forward here for the reason
that they have been published in pamphlet form and may be had free upon
application by persons interested in them.
In giving section and subsection numbers to these new acts, an attempt has
been made to place them as nearly as possible with related subjects in the
Revisal, but in some instances this method has led to illogical locations. But,
in order to make use of the index to the Revisal in locating these laws, in
case the sections shall be cut from the bulletin and pasted over or under the
present Revisal sections, it has been deemed advisable to use this arbitrary
plan. If the bulletin is used as a supplement to the Revisal, the index will
give the new section numbers which are of little importance after locating the
particular statute wanted.

permission requirements. The first date of the open season and the first date of the close
season are given, so that the close season may be found by reversing the dates. If the
open season is October l-February 1, the close season will be February 1-October 1.
When the season is closed for several years, the first date on which shooting is permitted,
as Sep*^mber 1, 1918, appears in the digest. When no dates are given, the species is
unprotected.

2. For the purpose of this act, in the case of retail merchants, the retail cash price or
prices shall be the regular cash price or prices charged by the same merchant to cash
customers for the same article or articles in like quantities at the same time. In the case
of advances of supplies by landlords or other persons not engaged in business as retail
merchants, or by retail merchants who have no regular cash prices, if the prices charged
are called into question by the purchaser the retail cash price or prices of the supplies
advanced may be determined by taking the average between the cash price or prices for
the same class or classes of goods of two neighboring merchants, one selected by the land-
lord or other person making the advance and the other by the one to whom the advance
is made : Provided, that no agreement or understanding between the parties as to the
price or prices to be charged shall work an estoppel against the person to whom supplies
have been advanced from showing that the price or prices charged were in fact more than
ten per cent over the average retail cash price or prices in that locality at the time the
advance or advances were made. If the price or prices charged by the merchants or the
landlord were in fact more than ten per cent, then the lien shall be null and void, as de-
clared in the preceding section.
3. Any person, firm, or corporation, including any bank or credit union, making any
advancement in money to any person for the purpose of enabling such person to cultivate
a crop, and taking as sole security for the advance so made a lien or mortgage on the
crops to be cultivated and the personal property of the person to whom the advances are
made, may charge, in lieu of interest, a commission of not more than ten per cent of the
amount of money actually advanced : Provided, that money advanced under the provisions
of this section shall be advanced in installments agreed upon at the time of the contract,
and the ten per cent commission herein allowed shall not be deducted, but shall be added
to the amount of money agreed to be advanced.
4. In case the money shall be advanced by a credit union, the funds derived from the
ten per cent commission allowed in section three of this act shall be used to pay such
interest as the union may pay for the money borrowed by it for the benefit of its members,
and to cover losses sustained by the union on account of loans made to members, and to
further cover any reasonable expenses incurred by the union in connection with the loans
made to members, and the balance of said fund shall be returned to the borrowers at the
end of each year.
5. All liens or mortgages made under the provisions of this act shall be valid for their
face value in the hands of purchasers for value and before maturity, even though the
charges made are in excess of those allowed in this act ; but in such cases the party to
whom the advances are made shall have the right to recover from the party making the
advances any sum he may be compelled to pay a third party in excess of the charges
allowed by this act.
6. This act shall go into effect on the first day of January, one thousand nine hundred
and eighteen, and shall apply to all advances made for the year one thousand nine hundred
and eighteen, and thereafter.

to be issued hereunder, and interest thereon, compute and levy each year at the time of
levying other county taxes a sufficient tax upon all real and personal property in said
county to pay the interest on the said bonds, and shall also levy a sufficient tax to create a
sinking fund to provide for the payment of said bonds at maturity. Such taxes shall be
levied and collected annually and under the same laws and regulations as shall be in force

record which shall be kept by their clerk, in which shall be entered the name of every
purchaser of a bond, the number of the bond purchased, the date of issue, when due,
rate of interest, and the amount received for said bond. They shall also cause to be kept
a record of all proceedings, as well as a record of the bonds redeemed annually, and the
bonds when redeemed and recorded shall be destroyed by fire in the presence of the board

any, shall be safely invested by the board of county commissioners, and the county com-
missioners are authorized to purchase any of said bonds to amount of such excess annually,
and after ten years they may purchase at not exceeding their par value one twenty-fifth
of the bonds issued for any county ; and if no holder of said bonds shall offer to sell such
amount, then the said county commissioners are authorized to designate such bonds as they
may desire to purchase, and after the designation of such bonds and the notice thereof
given to a newspaper published in the county, if the holder of the bonds neglects or refuses
to surrender the same and receive their par value, with interest accrued thereon at the
time of such notice, then the holders shall not receive any interest subsequently accruing :
Provided, the said bonds designated shall express such conditions on their face."
2. The powers conferred and the duties imposed on the board of commissioners by this
act shall be exercised and performed by the board of road commissioners or the board of
highway commissioners or other bridge-governing board, by whatever name known, in
counties where the powers and duties of boards of county commissioners in respect to
bridges have been transferred or given by law to such board of road commissioners or

the analysis by the Department shall show the presence of any of these unlawful materials
in goods registered for sale, publication shall be made in the next monthly bulletin and in
one or more newspapers, to be selected by the Commissioner, giving the name and brand
of the goods and the unlawful substance contained in its composition. No manufacturer
or seller of such goods shall be allowed to collect pay for same, and when payment has
been made it shall be returned by the seller to the purchaser. A copy of the bulletin con-
taining the statement of the presence of unlawful material in the named goods shall be
evidence in any court in this State in bar of payment and for recovery of money paid for
goods so named. The presence of any forbidden material shall vitiate the whole : Pro-
vided, that the manufacturers who desire to use any such material may do so under such
regulations as the board may prescribe.

ten per cent of the lot from which they may be selected : Provided, that no sample shall
be drawn from less than ten bags of any one lot or brand. The samples must be drawn
in the presence of either the agent or seller or dealer, or some other representative of the
manufacturer : Provided, that when the agent or seller or dealer, or local representative
of the manufacturer, is not present or refuses to act, two disinterested persons may act
as witnesses. The purchaser or consumer, or the agent of either, may take fertilizer
samples under the following rules and regulations : When any purchaser or consumer, or
the agent of either, desires to take a sample of any fertilizer or fertilizer material he shall
notify the manufacturer in writing, giving him not less than six days notice from the
posting of the letter of the time or times and place or places for taking said sample or
samples, and if the m-anufacturer refuses or fails to witness and assist in drawing the
sample or appoint some one to represent him at the designated time and place, two disin-
terested freeholders may do so. The Department of Agriculture shall make additional
rules and regulations under and by which the purchaser or consumer, or agent of either,
may take the sample or samples of fertilizer or fertilizer material as herein provided, and
forward the same to the Department for analysis under the provisions of this act : Pro-
vided, that no sample may be taken except within thirty days after the actual delivery to
the consumer except by the State Fertilizer Inspector. In the trial of any suit or action
wherein there is called in question the value or composition of any fertilizer, a certificate

signed by the State Chemist and attested with the seal of the Department of Agriculture,
setting forth the analysis made by the State Chemist of any sample of said fertilizer
drawn under the provisions of this chapter, and analyzed by him under the provisions of
the same, shall be prima facie proof that the fertilizer was of the value and constituency
shown by his said analysis. And the said certificate of the State Chemist shall be admis-
sible In evidence to the same extent as if it were his deposition taifen in said action in
the manner prescribed by law for the taking of depositions. The Department may in its
discretion refuse to analyze any sample that is not drawn and forwarded to the Department
in accordance with the regulations which it may adopt for the carrying out of this act :
Provided, that such samples not taken in accordance with such regulations shall be for
information only : and Provided further, that no suit for damages from results of use of
fertilizer may be brought except after chemical analysis showing deficiency of ingredients,
unless it shall appear to the Department of Agriculture that the manufacturer of said
fertilizer in question has, in the manufacture of other goods offered in this State during
such season, employed such ingredients as are outlawed by the provisions of this act, or
unless it shall appear to the Department of Agriculture that the manufacturer of such
fertilizer has offered for sale during that season any kind of dishonest or fraudulent goods.

cost and expenses incurred by the Department in- any proceedings connected with such
seizure and condemnation, and upon compliance with all other requirements of this chapter.

consent of the board, shall have discretion to exempt such natural material as may be
deemed expedient. Each bag, barrel, or other package of such fertilizer or fertilizer mate-
rial shall have attached thereto a tag stating that all charges specified in this section have
been paid, and the Commissioner, with the advice and consent of the board, is hereby
empowered to prescribe a form of such tags, and to adopt such regulations as will insure

offered for sale, or removed, to be recovered by the Commissioner of Agriculture by suit
brought in the name of the State, and any amount so recovered shall be paid, one-half to
the informer and one-half to the State Treasurer tor the use of the Department of Agri-

grade of work to be done and the qualifications of the teachers required in each school for
each race. As soon as the apportionments are made it shall be the duty of the board to
notify the school committeemen and the treasurer of the county school fund of the amount
apportioned to each school, designating each school by number, and stating whether for
white, colored, or Indian, and naming the township and county. Funds unused by any
district during any year shall, if still unused at the January meeting subsequent to the
close of the school year, be returned to the general school fund for reapportionment, unless
such district shall have been prevented from using such funds during that year by provi-
dential or other unavoidable causes : Provided, that in the discretion of the county board
of education it may also reserve sufficient funds, after first providing for a six months
school term in every school district, to pay a part of the cost, not to exceed one-half, neces-

county health officer should neglect for a period of ninety days to carry out the spirit of
this section, unless his entire time should be required to fight an epidemic of some con-
tagious or infectious disease, the county board of education may in its discretion withdraw
its financial aid in his employment : Provided further, that the county board of education
may reserve as a further contingent fund a sufficient amount to pay the salary of an
assistant superintendent, and to defray such other supervisory and administrative expenses
as it may deem necessary, and such additional contingent fund as it may deem advisable
for the encouragement and support of home demonstration and club work : Provided, the
amount set aside under this provision shall in no case exceed one-half the amount spent
for such purposes in the county, but the funds set aside for these purposes shall not oper-
ate to increase the amount to which said county would have been entitled from the State
equalizing fund if said funds had not been set aside, and the same shall be included in

nineteen hundred and twenty, or until their successors are qualified, Lois Toomer, R.N.,
of New Hanover ; Maria P. Allen, R.N., of Burke ; and Thompson Fraser, M.D., of Bun-
combe. The board shall fill any vacancy for an unexpired term. An inspector of training
schools for nurses shall be annually appointed by the North Carolina State Nurses' Asso-
ciation, who shall report annually to the board of examiners. Said inspector shall be a
registered nurse, her duties and compensation to be fixed by the board of nurse examiners.
2. Three members of the board shall constitute a quorum, two of whom shall be nurses.
The board shall adopt and have custody of a seal and shall frame by-laws and regulations
for its own government and for the execution of the provisions of this act. The officers
of said board shall be a president and a secretary-treasurer, both to be elected from its
nurse members. The treasurer shall give bond in such sum as may be fixed in the by-laws
and the premium therefor to be paid from the treasury of said board. The members
of the board of examiners shall each receive as compensation for his or her services four
dollars per diem and actual traveling and hotel expenses. The secretary-treasurer may
receive an additional salary, to be fixed by the board, not to exceed two hundred and fifty
dollars per annum, said expenses and salaries to be paid from fees received by the board
under the provisions of this act, and in no case to be charged upon the treasury of the
State. All moneys received in excess of said allowance, and other expenses provided for,
shall be held by the secretary-treasurer for the expenses of the board and for extending
nursing education in the State.
3. The Board of Examiners of Trained Nurses of North Carolina shall convene not less
frequently than once annually and at any time ten or more applicants shall notify the
secretary that they desire an examination. Thirty days prior to such meetings notice
stating time and place of examinations shall be published in one nursing journal and
three daily State papers. At such meetings it shall be the duty of the board of exam-
iners to examine graduate nurses applying for license to practice their profession in
North Carolina. An applicant must prove to the satisfaction of the board that he or she
is twenty-one years of age, is of good moral character, and has received at least one year
high school education or its equivalent. Applicants shall have graduated from a training
school for nurses connected with a general hospital where a systematic course of practical
and theoretical instruction covering a period of three years is given in the hospital, or
from a training school connected with small or special hospitals and sanatoria meeting
the aforesaid requirements by affiliation with one or more training schools.
4. Examinations shall be held in anatomy, physiology, materia medica, dietetics,
hygiene and elementary bacteriology, obstetrical, medical, and surgical nursing, nursing
of children, contagious diseases and ethics of nursing, and such other subjects as may be
prescribed by the examining board. The subject of contagious diseases may be given in
theory only. If on examination the applicant should be found competent, the board shall
grant a license, authorizing him or her to register as herein provided, and to use the title
"Registered Nurse," signified by the letters "R. N." Before an applicant shall be per-
mitted to take such an examination he or she shall pay to the secretary of the examining
board an examination fee of ten dollars. In the event of the failure of applicant to pass
examination, one-half of the above named fee shall be returned to applicant.
5. The board shall have authority to issue licenses, without examination, to nurses
registered in other States, provided that said States shall maintain an equivalent standard
of registration requirements. The examination fee shall accompany each such application
for license.
6. On and after the ratification of this act all "trained," "graduate," "licensed," or
"registered" nurses must obtain license from the nurses' examining board before practic-
ing their profession in this State, and before using the abbreviation "R. N." must obtain
a certificate of registration from the clerk of the Superior Court of any county as herein-
after provided : Provided, that all nurses graduating prior to the ratification of this act
who shall show to the satisfaction of the board of examiners that they are graduates, in
good standing, and were engaged in the profession of nursing in the State of North Caro-
lina before the ratification of this act, shall be entitled to registration without examina-
tion and without the payment of the examination fee, provided such application be made
before June first, nineteen hundred and seventeen. This act shall not apply to nurses who
began their training course prior to its ratification, and who shall apply for examination
on or before the first day of June, 1919. It is provided, furthermore, that nothing
contained in this section shall be construed as a requirement for renewal of license or
registration of nurses already licensed and registered in North Carolina.
7. This act shall not be construed to affect or apply to the gratuitous nursing of the
sick by friends or members of the family, or any hospital or sanatorium that send their
nurses into private homes or elsewhere for hire during the time they are in said institu-
tion taking training, or to any person taking care of the sick for hire, who does not repre-
sent himself or herself or in any way assume to practice as a "trained," "graduate,"
"licensed," or "registered nurse."
8. The clerk of the Superior Court of any county upon presentation to him of a license
from the State Board of Nurse Examiners issued at a date not more than twelve months
previous, shall enter the date of registration and the name and residence of the holder
thereof in a book to be kept in his office for this purpose and marked "Record of Regis-
tered Nurses," and shall issue to the applicant a certificate of such registration, under the
seal of the Superior Court of the county, upon a form to be prescribed by the board of
examiners. For such registration he shall charge a fee of fifty cents.
9. The board shall have power to revoke the license of any registered nurse upon con-
viction of gross incompetence, dishonesty, intemperance, or any act derogatory to the
morals or standing of the profession of nursing. No license shall be revoked except upon
charges preferred. The accused shall be furnished a written copy of such charge and
given not less than twenty days notice of the time and place when said board shall accord
a full and fair hearing on the same. Upon the revocation of a license and certificate, the
name of the holder thereof shall be stricken from the roll of registered nurses in the
hands of the secretary of the board, and by the clerk of the Superior Court from his regis-
ter, upon notification of such action by said secretary.
Amendments to Revisal of 1905. 64
10, Any person procuring license under this act by false representation or who shall
refuse to surrender a license which has been revoked in the manner prescribed in section
nine of this act or who shall use the title "trained," "graduate," "licensed," or "registered
nurse," or the abbreviation "R. N.," without having first obtained a license, shall be
guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction shall be fined not more than fifty dollars or
imprisoned not exceeding thirty days. Each act shall constitute a new offense.
