Within 30 days after the expiration of the time in which any class of license is usable, payment for licenses sold shall be made in full to the Department and the respective persons possessed of blank forms thereof shall return same to the Department prepaid. No person is permitted to make deductions from remittances sent to the Department for postage, or for the cost of, or fees for, drafts or money orders. Any county, city, village, township or incorporated town clerk handling or selling licenses as aforesaid is liable to the State personally. All other persons designated or appointed by the Department to handle or sell licenses as aforesaid shall before receiving such licenses for sale file with the Department a bond in an amount specified by the Department on a form to be approved by and with a surety or sureties satisfactory to the Department conditioned upon such person or persons paying to the State of Illinois all monies becoming due by reason of the sale of the licenses. No person handling or selling licenses is required to remit for any license heretofore or hereafter stolen, by means of forcible entry, or destroyed by a fire in the premises where such licenses are kept, if he submits an affidavit to the Department describing the circumstances pertaining to such theft or causing such destruction and listing therein the type and numbers of the licenses so stolen or destroyed.
