ALL DOGS THAT RUN

TO BE SHOT
All loose dogs within the city
limits will be shot on sight, re-
gardless of ownership, whether
tagged or not, according to an-
nouncement by Mayor Robert
Work on another page of this
paper. — -
Dog owners are advised to have
their animals vaccinated and kept
strictly on their own premises, as
a precaution against the rabies
epidemic now raging in Texas.
Texas enjoys the doubtful dis-
tinction of having more cased of .
hydrophobia in both human and
animal than any other state In
normal times, and now a rapid in-
crease in cases is reported.
At Electra a 10-year-old girl
was attacked by five dogs, ana 60
stitches were required to close
wounds on her abdomen, arms
and legs. At Pampa 24 heads of
dogs were sent to the Pasteur In-
stitute at Austin, and 22 of them
were positive. Borger reports
