THE ROAD
TO HEALTH
DOG BITES BY
J. LEONIDAS LEACH, M. D

A-<AOA VA
Little Alice Rivers had romped
and played with the neighbours
police dog almost since the time
she could walk. The dog had al
ways been very gentle with the
child, so it was quite a shock to
her when he leaped up and bit
her n hot summer day.
Mrs. Rivers was almost hysteri-
cal with fear when she brought
Alice to my office right after the
incident. She had heard that only
a mad" dog, one infected with
rabies, would bite and that the
person bitten died almost immed-
lately afterwards.
While | cauterized the wound
on Alice's thigh carefully with
nitric acid, cleansed the area and
covered it with a bandage. I ex-
planned to Mrs. Rivers that not
everyone who is bitten by a dog
is in danger of rabies. The dog
bite is dangerous if the animal
has rabies, or is "mad" of if the
bite occurred in an area where
there have been rabid dogs.
When the bite is on the face
or results in considerable lacera-
ton, particularly if there have
been rabid animals about, the SAT-
est measure is to treat the child
as though the animal were rabid,
c~auterize the wound and admin
lister anti-rabie serum at once. If
there is no history of rabies in
animals in the area, and the

wound is no on the face, and not
serious, serum may be delayed un
til the animal has been observed
| for at least 10 days. The disease
takes several weeks, or even
months, to develop, although once
it has developed, it cannot be
cured and is almost always fatal.
So Mrs. Rivers was wise in bring
ing Alice to see me as soon as
possible.
AS soon as | finished bandag-
ing the leg, | asked Mrs. Rivers
if she knew where the dog had
run back in the house of the neigh
| Dor who owned him and she
| thought he was still there in the
cellar. She added that her neigh
Dor, too, was terribly upset about
the incident and was wondering
whether or not the dog should be
shot right away before he could
do any more damage.
| called the owner of the dog
at once, urged her to keep the
dog in the cellar and notify the
health authorities Immediately so
they could send for the dog and
keep him under the observation
of a veterinarian. | warned her
| above all not to kill the dog. VS.
could not tell whether the dog
had rabies unless symptoms de-
veloped. If he were killed before
the symptoms had time to devel-
| op, it would be difficult to deter
| mine if he had the disease. If the
dog seemed to be normal 10 days
after he bit Alice, it meant he
did not have rabies and there
would be no danger that the child
would develop the disease.
AS it turned out, the dog did
not have rabies. | learned later
that some neighborhood boys had
been teasing the dog and that he
bit the little girl as she ran past
him while playing a game.
1t may take several weeks for
the germ causing the disease to
take effect in the persons bitten,
but at the same time, treatment
is useless if it is begun too late.
We should never take chances
with a dog bite. The doctor
should be consulted Immediately
because he is the best one to give
advice on what treatment is need
ed and what other measures
should be taken to safeguard the
person bitten.

Dorothy Shay is wonderful. She
was wonderful when she first ap-
peared here, on the Capitol Theater
stage, with those songs about the
carefree attitudes of her Southern
kinfolk. She was wonderful when
she last appeared at the Statler's
Embassy Room. singing her hilari-
ous ditties. She was wonderful
again last night when she put in
her most recent appearance, starting
two-week engagement at that
same Embassy Room.

Dorothy Shay to beguile man and
make him roar with laughter at the
same time, to sing songs that are
broadly comic and then subtly hu-
morous, to prove she can change her

mood.
You may as well realize right
now, if you haven't already, that
you will get no calm, dispassionate
comment on the art of Miss Shay
in this corner. Here you will get
only love letters to Dorothy. Her
