13-18-9. Registered warrant prenumbered and issued when funds insufficient--Records kept--Endorsement--Interest earned. Whenever an approved voucher is presented for payment and there is insufficient money in the fund for the full payment of the claim, the school board may instruct the business manager to issue a prenumbered registered warrant or warrants for the payment of the approved voucher. The registered warrants shall be recorded by the business manager in a register and shall be arranged in columns to show the number, date, amount of the warrant, the fund upon which the warrant is drawn, the payee, the date of payment, the amount of interest, the total amount paid thereon, and the date of mailing notice to the payee in whose name the warrant is registered. Each registered warrant shall be identified clearly on the face by being printed or stamped "registered warrant" and shall be signed by the president of the board on the face of the warrant and the business manager shall sign the endorsement statement: Voucher presented for payment this __________ day of __________ 20__________, and not paid for want of money in the __________ fund, registration number __________ and the rate of interest __________ percent. Every warrant thus endorsed shall draw interest to be determined by the school board until paid.
