Mad Dogs.
A friend.

The time of year when the
mad dog scare flourishes is a
good time to remember that the
rabies is rare. Dogs do, however
suffer from heat and thirst and
resulting bad temper. For their
comfort, as well as for human
safety, water should be placed
where they can get it easily, and
children should be warned to re-
frain from teasing their own
