Incidentally, Bob is very pop

As a service to veterans in the
community, this newspaper will pub
lish a weekly column of news briefs
from the Veterans Administration.
For further information, veterans
should contact or write their near
est VA contact office at RIM. 327,
P. o. Bldg, Billings.
ISSUE DATE IMPORTANT
ON G.. I. INSURANCE
Veterans who reinstate their
National Service Life Insurance
policies may allow them to
lapse a second time through
misunderstanding, the Veterans
Administration cautions.
Upon submission of the re-
instatement application with
accompanying comparative
health statement and two
monthly premiums, the veteran
assumes he has a month be-
fore another payment is due.
Because the VA cannot change
the original day of the month
on which the policy is effective
a premium may be due within
a week or two, or even a day
after reinstatement payments
are in the mail.
Thus, a veteran whose eff
fective date is on the first Of
the month may reinstate on
the twenty-fifth and have only
five days before another pre-
MUM is due.
Some protection is offered by
the thirty-one day grace period.
However,, if a veteran counts
on that time, and in addition
believes he has thirty days be-
tween payments, his policy will
lapse.
Veterans who are not sure of
the day of the month their
policies are effective are ad-

DOG DAYS AND RABIES

Among the myriad lies about
dogs. none is more persistent or
more idiotic than the "dog days
superstition. You'd be surprised
how many people have the belief
that the period from late July un-
til late August is the time when
your dog is most likely to become
rabid and do all kinds OF damage.
Because of this many pups suffer-
ing from worm fits or sunstrokes
are shot to death.
It has been proved time and
again that rabies is no more fre-
ouent in summer than in winter
and no more SC during the So
called "dog days" than during the
Christmas holidays. If your dog is
allowed to loaf in some cool shad-
ed place during the heat of the
day and if he has plenty Of fresh,
cool water to drink, he is no more
in danger of going mad or con-
tracing other diseases than at any
other time of year. DOG days.
mean nothing as far as rabies are
concerned. Remember too that a
dog becomes rabid only after be-
ing bitten by some other animal
suffering from this disease.
YOU'RE RESPONSIBLE If
Regardless of who the rightful
owner of a dog may be, the law
in most states provides that who
ever harbors or gives shelter and
food to the animal is responsible
for any damage the dog may do.
For example: You give a home
