What must notaries do with their stamp and journal?

Store them in a safe
Keep them under their direct control
Leave them at the county clerk's office
Give them to a supervisor

The correct answer is: Keep them under their direct control

Notaries are required to keep their stamps and journals under their direct control at all times. This means that they should not leave them unattended or give them to anyone else. A safe may provide a secure place to store these items, but it is not a requirement. Leaving them at the county clerk's office or giving them to a supervisor would prevent the notary from having direct control over these important tools. Therefore, the best answer is B Keep them under their direct control.
