Honor Their Mother Sunday
By Attending Church
Today in a world that has more troubles than
we have ever seen, when the Communist Countries
are overrunning ou r schools, universities and
even our churches throughout America, and as
a Veteran of World War I, that went to France
for a $1 a day to let a "million Communist and
what have you shoot at us”, we see the need for
America to come back to their home won churches
and show the world that America can and will
survive and in the end we will once again live in
peace and happiness in this the finest country in
all the world.
Do yourself proud Sunday by attending some
church somewhere, and if your mother has pass
ed on wear a White Flower on your coat lapel,
and if she is living wear a Red Flower on the
lapel of your coat.
Right here in Pembroke we have all the
churches who invite you to attend that we need,
and at the First Baptist Church of Pembroke
they are starting their annual Spring Revival,
and have their new Pastor who has just moved
here and we think he is going to do an outstand
ing job here. He and his wife and two small
daughters have already moved into the new church
home and will do the preaching. The singing will
be led by Mr. C. C. Spinks and we are sure that
we will have some good singing. Our friends in
the church tell us that this revival is to be a "home
revival”, all the parts, preaching and singing to
be done by local members of the church, and they
are looking for a big attendance to welcome their
new pastor and at the same time honor their
mothers on Mother’s Day.

Rabies Clinic
RABIES — A POSSIBILITY
IN BRYAN
Bryan County borders the
main area of the state where
rabies is known to exist. There
fore, it is very possible that the
disease could “overlap” into our
area.
Rabies is caused by a very
deadly virus which affects the
central nervous system of our
body and once the symptoms of
the disease has started there is
no known cure. However, rabies
can be prevented after a person
is bitten by a rabid animal if
proper treatment is administ
ered in time. The symptoms do
not generally start for several
weeks or longer after the ex
posure.
Usually, the first thing a
person thinks of in the case of
a dog bite is to kill the animal.
This is the worst possible solu
tion, because, if an infested
animal is killed in the early
stages of rabies, the brain ex
amination may show no evi
dence of the disease. The ani
mal should be confined in an
enclosed area or chained so
that there is is no possible way
for it to escape. After this is
done the Bryan County Health
Center should be consulted for
further advice. The animal
should be confined for at least
seven days during which time,
if it has rabies, it will die. Then
the heacl should be cut off, iced,
and sent to the branch labora
tory at Waycross for confirma
tion.
Dogs are not the only ani
mals which may carry rabies.
The disease is also spread .by
raccoons, foxes, cats, cattle,
horses, mules, squirrels and
other rodents. Raccoons lead in
number of rabid cases in Geor
gia—107 confirmed in 1964.
A clinic will be held at the
Richmond Hill Courthouse on
Saturday, May 10 between the
hours of 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
for the vaccination of dogs and
cats against rabies. The cost
will be $2.00 per animal.
Clinics for Pembroke and
Ellabell will be announced at a
later date.
