RABIES
BY w. A. Davis, N. o.

MACON, Ca. - A young boy
came running into my office the
other day in a very frightened
state. His hand was bleeding and
he told me in an anxious voice
that he had been bitten by a mad
dog"
I Immediately washed out the
wound thoroughly with soap and
water and then bandaged it. Mean
while, 1 tried to calm and reassure
my young patient and get him to
tell me about the accident. I told
h imthat, even if the dog were
mad and he had caught rabies,
1 could give him medical treat
ment and he would not die. I was
glad he had come to my office
SO quickly.
He had been riding his bicycle
down the street and had accident.
ally bumped into the dog, runn-
ing over its paw. The dog chased
him along the sidewalk and bit
his hand when he waved his arm
to try to brighten the dog away.
He said with a touch of chagrin.
This is the first time a dog ever
bit me. I like dogs Then he look.
ed worried again and said, But
I'm going to tell my father and
have him find that dog and shoot
him. Whw, suppose I do get rabies
He looked at me in fright.
I explained to him he would
not get rabies unless the dog was
mad-and that all dogs that bite
are not mad. However, since q
mad dog had been found in the
neighborhood recently I though it
best to take no chance. So I told
the boy 1 would give him certain
inoculations to protect him in case
the dog did have rabies.
The boy agreed to this and I
! gave him an incubation, telling
| him to come back in a few DAYS
for another one, as the inocula.
tons are given in a series.
If a dog really does have rabies
and the inoculations are not start.
ed Immediately after the bite, the
germs will travel from the place
where the person is bitten to the
spinal cord and to the brain, lead
ing to death. This may take sever
al weeks. If the bite is on the bite
is on the face or neck, the germs
travel to the brain more quickly
than they do when the bite is
elsewhere on the body.
My young patient still wanted
his father to find the dog and
shoot it. I suggested that instead
, Of doing this he ask his father
to call the dog catcher. After all
we wouldn't want his father tc
take the chance of being bitten
too, especially if it turned out that
the dog really was mad.
told the boy the dog catche,
would shut the dog Up in q place
where he could not get out ant
bite anyone else. H would keer
the dog under observation for two
weeks at least. If the dog did have
rabies, he would die during thai
, period.
As 1t turned out, the dog VIA
not mad and was released. 7
could stop giving the NEGOTIATIONS
to my young patient who, how
ever, agreed with me that W. die
the best thing when we started
the NEGOTIATIONS, as we were
playing safep.
Anyone who is bitten by any
dog should go to the doctor i'm.
meaditely. He should also tell the
city authorities about the dog So
they can search for it and when
they find him keep him under oh.
servation until they can deter
mine whether the dog has rabies

BADD0UR SPEAKS
AT LEGION HOME
Armistice ay Speaker
Urges Reorganization Of
United Nations

Recommending the eorganiza-
ton of the United Nations into
"a body capable of effectively
dealing with international prob
lens and disputes" Clinton Le-
gionnaire S. Charles Baddour de-
clared that until such time as
this goal is accomplished Ameri-
caamust be ready to "meet force
with force.''
Speaking in special American
Legion Armistice Day cere-
monies held at the Legion home,
despite inclement weather which
forced cancellation of a planned
parade through the downtown
sections, yesterday, Baddour,
a World-War I veteran, declared
that Americas strongest desire
is for peace "
He recommended, speaking for
the Legion, a redistribution of
power on the security council
and the abolishment of the veto
power on matters of aggression
as improvements for the United
Nations organization. He also
recommended a settling of dis
putes by a majority vote in the
world court and creation of a
"tyranny-proof would p o1
force" to enforce United Nations
directives.
Universal Training
The veteran of five War 1 bat
ties and five years service in
the United States, England,
France, Belgium and Mexico
added his voice to the American
Legion's support of universal
military training.
Declaring that other countries
have such military training pro-
grams and emphasizing his be-
lief that preparedness would help
prevent future war, rather than
promote it, he said that ''Uni-
versal military training is the
democratic way of sharing both
responsibility and opportunity"
During their Armistice Day
ceremonies the local Legion
naries were hosts to the Veterans
of Foreign Wars, Disabled
American Veterans and the
United Spanish-American War
Veterans at an Armistice D a y
