JUST A REMINDER: Being a member of Helping Paws does not obligate you to take in stray animals, it merely shows us that you support our cause! You And Your Pet By Raymond m. Minor, D.V.M. Manager of Veterinary Services Norden Laboratories There are some things that even your best friend won't tell you - and offensive cat and dog odors around your house might possibly be one of them. To avoid offensive animal odors that may embarrass you or your family, it is necessary to teach your pets proper sanitary habits, indoors as well as out. When house-training a puppy, it is particularly im­ portant that the first elimination occurs indoors on paper or outdoors near the spot the pet is expected to use. A new puppy must be kept under close supervision during this period to prevent use of the wrong area. Once he is trained to this spot, he will go back thereafter. Most young pups are unable to be continent for more than an hour except overnight and then only if they are confined to their sleeping area. This condition is normal until the puppy is ap­ proximately 12 weeks old. During this time, your puppy should be watched for signs of urgency. He will give you a warning by looking for a spot. When you realize this, rush the pet to the selected indoor or outdoor spot. There are times when you should be especially watchful. The Law Serves You Join The Fight Against Crime Don't Leave Valuables In Car There is something everybody can do to fight the war on crime - don't leave your car unattended unless the doors are locked and, if possible, remove all valuables if the car is to remain unattended for any length of time. According to the Illinois State Bar Association, auto break-in and theft is one of the most common forms of crime, one of the most difficult to guard against and, once the crime has been committed, apprehension of the offender is difficult and unlikely. In major cities, theft in­ volving personal property left in vehicles runs into the millions of dollars each year. In Chicago, thefts from autos exclusive of auto parts and accessories hit a record high in 1969 of $1,970,392. For 1971, the total was down to $1,288,072, perhaps indicating a response to police efforts to discourage people from leaving valuables exposed in their automobile. While locked cars obviously don't prevent break-ins, at least they don't make the burglar's job any easier. Moreover, if a person has in­ surance that will cover theft from his auto, this usually applies only if there are signs of forceable entry - meaning the doors must have been locked. In Illinois, no motor vehicle may be left unattended unless the engine has been stopped and the ignition key removed, an act that should remind motorists to lock the doors and roll up the windows. About 50 per cent of burglarized autos were left unattended with a door unlocked or a window open. If theft from an auto occurs, the victim should report the theft to the management if it occurred on the private property of a restaurant, motel, hotel or other buisiness; to police and to his insurance agent. In most cases, a package-type homeowner's insurance policy provides automatic coverage of personal belongings stolen from a locked vehicle. Normally, the limit of the insurer's liability is 10 per cent of the coverage for un-„ scheduled personal property or* $1,000 whichever is higher. Reports to the proper authorities - the management and police - is important to establish corroboration that a break-in and theft did occur, and of course, police will look for evidence that could lead to an apprehension and-or possible recovery of the stolen items. However, the recovery rate for articles stolen from automobiles is very low. In addition to theft from a locked vehicle, a homeowner's insurance policy normally covers virtually all types of theft of personal property that is "incidental to the occupancy of the household" regardless of where this theft takes place. Thus, personal property stolen from one's hotel or motel room, from an airline or other public conveyance (other than checked baggage) would be covered subject to the limits of the policy. However, articles used in connection with one's business would not be covered. Business property can be in­ sured under a so-called "floater" policy that would cover irsured items against Growing puppies must relieve themslves immediately on waking in the morning, awakening from naps, after meals and during the ex­ citement of play. If you select your yard as the site of your pet's outdoor elimination, teach him to use only a certain portion of it. You can do this by placing some of his droppings at the selected Spot, and take him there when you know it is necessary. When he relieves himself there, praise him. Usually a puppy will not soil his own yard. So, unless you find an alternative, he will go to your neighbor's yard. Even the friendliest neighbor will be resentful if your puppy wan­ ders all over his lawn, soiling his yard and flowers. Cats by nature are meticulously clean and housebreaking is not a problem. They are usually housebroken by the time they are weaned. If you are training a kitten, provide a box or sanitary pan about 12"xl5"x3" filled to at least one inch with sand, sawdust or deodorizing litter. Take your cat to this pan, place him in it gently, and make little scratching motions with his front paws. Repeating this two or three times is generally sufficient for him to get the idea. Then it's up to you to keep the pan scrupulously clean, for cats are fastidious creatures - and, of course be sure it is always available to him. Kittens must relieve them­ selves usually after meals, after periods of energetic play, first thing in the morning and the last thing at night. The bathroom or a secluded part of the kitchen is an ex­ cellent place to keep a sanitary pan. Make sure you keep constant check as most cats refuse to use a soiled pan and some may even need two trays to satisfy their fastidiousness. If your cat goes outdoors at regular times during the day, he does not need to be pan- trained. However, remember that it is not necessary for your cat to go outdoors. An indoor cat leads a happy life also. You can avoid almost all house "accidents" by teaching your pet proper sanitary regimens. If you experience difficulty training your pet to daily elimination, consulting with a local veterinarian may prove helpful. Dr. Minor regrets that he is unable to personally answer letters from pet owners. He suggests that readers consult their own veterinarians when their pets have problems.

Illinois Traffic Accidents Show Decrease In 72 Illinois traffic accidents during 1972 were down from 1971 according to statistics from the Illinois State Police and the Illinois Department of Transportation. The first 6 months of 1972 traffic fatalities showed a 10 percent decline from 1971's good record. And preliminary figures for the first half of September show a startling 29 percent drop in fatalities. There were seventy- nine deaths during September 1-15 this year compared with 111 a year ago. The overall number of vehicle travelers increased 4 percent last year, the actual number of accidents decreased 4 percent. Several reasons are cited for the downtrend in Illinois ac­ cident rates. Drivers are driving defensively. Driver education programs are im­ proving the quality of young drivers. Roads have been made safer. Since 1969, 5,485 miles of Illinois roads have been upgraded and improved; 932 old bridges have been widened and-or resurfaced. Illinois is currently below the national average in traffic fatalities. Upcoming highway safety programs are expected to do even more to improve the Illinois driving record. eat well! SMMMW 19 You CAN BUY CHEAPER CUTS OF MEAT ANP GET HEEDED PROTEIN AT LESS COST.
