Vacalloun sWamd Danger Frm Raiote 1 onfa the unpleasant thingi Canada hai to'fate la an occasion- al outbreak pi tables. While these epîdemnies are nôt irequent, they are difficult ta contraI, ince the ditease usually attacks wild ani- mals from which it spreads ta dornestic varietiès. Most people who *pend ticir summers or vacations in the country are thriiled by the smnall animaIs froin the woods who have developed bhe art of panhandling ta the nth degrec. But these same arimals are susceptible to rab- les. Dogs arid cats should not be al- lewed ta roam freely through Uic woods, and ît shoifid be remein- bered that a wide variety of ani- mals cari become rabid-includ- ini dogs. cats. small rodents, cows. deer. moose. anid mari himself. Rabies la spread by the bite. scratch or everi saliva of a rabid animal. Children should be cau- tioned against the chanec o! being bibten by any animais. The local Healbh o! Animais Veteririarian of the Canadian De- partmcnt of Agriculture shouid be notîfied of any suspected case of rabies in animaIs. The local game viarden, too. will know what ac- tion to taIse in such case. The city veterinarian will advise as tan the vaccination of the animal pets which are takeni on the vacation trip whether it ig a long stav at the summer cottage or a motor trip through rural areas. OVER CONFIDENCE Long experience as a driver or on some job involving machiner)- or chemicals. may make a person nver confident. While the right reacýions may be second nature ico a good driver, he should never rey, upon instinct to keep him naf f P rom arccdents-he should keep hix mind on the job to pre- vent accidents that cari happeri in a matter of seconds. While drivmng, or wcrkîng with machin- ery. chemnicals or drugs is no time to do the worr-.ing over domestic or financial problemrs.
