RABIES CONTROL DEPENDENT ON ILLINOIS LAW Congratulations Tliis Week To Ed Stacknick who will be marking his natal day tomorrow. Friday, May 13. Oh! Oh! Wee Mary Anne Michels will be 3 on May 14 and this, too, is Dominic Tomasello's birthday. Kathy and Bill Schlitt are due for congrats on Wednes- The Illinois rabies law requires all dog owners to have their animals vaccinated once a year. Hie control of rabies is dependent on this measure, says Dr. H. E. Van Der Veen, McHenry county rabifes control officer. All warm-blooded animals are susceptible to this disease, but dogs present the primary rabies hazard to man; Their biting habits and their contact with both Wild animals and man pmvide a potential link in rabresJtransmission. RabiUsSn dogs takes either the dumb ^or furious form. In the dumb form, the dog becomes paralyzed. A friendly dog' may become unruly, or an ugly dog may become friendly. It may drool, eat wood, stones or dirt. It may try to drink water without success. In the next stage, the animal wants to run and bite It then develops paralysis and dies. The furious form of rabies is not much different, in man. If vntreatod, it is always fatal. Above all, it is unnecessary. Vaccination provides the most effective rabies control measure now'available. It can break the possible chain of rabies transmission between wild animals and man. The first four roman numerals are supposed to be fonpeel from the similarity of the four fingers, and five from two fingers held at a slight angle. DR. HENRY FREUND OPTOMETRIST At 136 S.
