He is urging, however, that anyone who may have seen a bob-tailed Dalmatian with other animals near Placentia or who may have been bitten by the dog notify his office at once. It is believed that the dog may have travelled a great distance, possibly coming from Corona where three rabies cases were reported recently. Dr. Bower said it is not unusual for a dog afflicted with rabies to make long journeys and that the Dalmatian's pads were thoroughly worn. The veterinarian said that the first symptom of rabies is a general listlessness followed by a change of tone of the bark; then partial paralysis of the lower jaw followed by a spreading of the paralysis through the entire body. The animal thus afflicted will refuse food and drink and have a tendency to wander away. Lillian Beekman, 91, Dies at Home Lillian M.

"A social security card is issued to any person who applies for it. It is issued for one purpose, and only one. That is to identify a social security account on which the wage record of the possessor may be posted as credit toward old-age and survivors insurance benefits. The account number, because many people have the same name but no two can have the same number. The Social Security Board, in paying benefits, requires that the beneficiary identify himself fully."
