GIVE RULES
FOR RABIES
Health Authorities Urge Public
to Guard Against Rabies
And to Also Use Care
In Other Ways

Health authorities III the county
have expressed the fear that hasty
killing of animals suspected of being
rabid may lead to serious results
During the hot weather many animals
display signs of illness which should
be carefully watched, and the sick an
imal should not be killed unless nee
assary,
The health authorities give the fol-
lowing items Of information:
a. The animal behaving in an alb
normal way should be placed in con-
inement and carefully watched for at
least five days, Ability to drink water
must not be taken as evidence that the
dog is not rabid.
(2l If circumstances make it neces-
sary to kill the animal take care to
avoid injuring the brain. The proof
of rabies is found in the brain cell,
and a blow on the head or a bullet
through the brain is very liable to de-
stroy the signs of rabies.
(3) If bitten by an animal suspected
of being rabid stimulate bleeding of
the wound and see a physician with
out delay. He should eauterize the
wound deeply.
(4) IF laboratory tests show rabies
AXE the Pasteur Treatment as soon as
it can be obtained. Statistics show
about 6 per cent Of the people bitten
by rabid dogs develop rabies, and the
disease is almost invariably fatal
when it develops in man. On the other
hand the disease rarely develops in
persons taking the Pasteur treatment
and then usually in those bitten about
the head or who have delayed getting
treatment.
(5l If the animal dies or is killed
sever the head, pack in ice, and take
to the office of the Board Of Health.
90 If the animal is kept under OBJ
servation notify the County Dog War
den.

SAFETY REACHES ITS MAJORITY

The organized safety move.
ment in America is coming of
age.
It was born in 1912 to combat
the appalling death an accident
rates then prevailing in many
Industries. It has since immen
sely expanded its usefulness so
that it works not only to protect
life In the factory, but in the
home, on the highways. in the
the school-wherever the risk of
accident exists.
It's achievements are it's monu
ment. Despite vastly increased
industrial production. fatalities
have been cut more than thirty
per cent. Factories which were
once known as human slsught.
er houses" are now safer for the
workman than il his home. Ac
cidental deaths to children have
been cut through the introduc-
tiou of safety education into
school curriculums. The nun
ber of children injured or killed
by automobiles has dropped
matterially-but the adult toll of
automobiles has jumped at a diz
zying rate.
10 this last field the safety
movement has met it's greatest
obstacle. The highways are
thronRed with irresponsible, in
competent and reckless drivers
that last year claimed 81 1000
lives and were responsible for
hundreds thousands Of accidents.
Safety on the highway can come
only when automobile operators
like factory workers and ex
ecutives-realize their responsi
bility and become safety con.
cious." Then organized safety
movement will have corquered
its greatest enemy.
