"Pictures the dog in its service to mankind. The wolf dog, in the dawn of history, followed its master. Today, police dogs guard children, while during the War, dogs aided in the search for wounded men.
"The scene shifts to a town in eastern Prance, in the year 1831. The cry of mad dog drives the people into their homes, and from the safety of a window a young boy sees a dog attack a child. We see him next as a man — Louis Pasteur. He prepares a vaccine and gives daily treatments to four dogs which had been given hydrophobia. They are immune to the disease.
"Requests for his vaccine come from all over the world, but he hesitates. No attempt has been made to determine its effects on human beings. He plans a self-experiment. A mother brings her boy which had been bitten by a suspected mad dog. He still holds back, but keeps the boy in his home for observations. When the symptoms develop, he injects the vaccine and two weeks later the boy is cured." Advisory committee

p Guide
"A three-month-old Persian kitten tells, through titles, of his experiences, and suggests the best ways to care for cats. After an appropriate introduction. F'luffy appears in characteristic activities. He chews siioestrings, stares out of a window, looks at the goldfish, and plays with a pencil. He explains that he likes to look in dark places and under things, and he is shown as he looks for a mouse.
"Several views of the kitten asleep appear as he says that he can sleep anywhere as long as he is not bothered. Kitten's-eye views reveal how big and tall the household furniture appears to a little kitten. Fluffy explains that he is usually hungry. . . He doesn't like baths, but he keeps himself neat and clean. His sanitary facilities consist of a pan and a newspaper. He says that it hurts when he is picked up by the nape of the neck; his mistress demonstrates the proper way of holding him.
"Views of his paws and claws accompany an explanation that he needs a log to scratch, instead of the furniture. He says that he won't scratch when you play with him, unless you play roughly. . . When he gets into intentional mischief, he is spanked. . . He doesn't care about toys. . . He likes simple things such as a ball on a string. He exhibits his training by jumping over his mistress' outstretched hand, and then he sleeps in a box.
"In conclusion, he shows how he looks when normal, curious, angry, hungry, and sleepy, and then he appears prettily dressed in his best ribbon to say 'Good-bye.'
"An excellent film for use in kindergarten through third grade in general elementary studies, including reading and animal life. Accurate information concerning kittens and their care is provided in the film, and the vocabulary Is correctly graded. Photography and titles are good; organization Is satisfactory." Don White in Ed. screen
"Made especially for primary grades but of interest to any age. . . It is enthusiastically received by both the teachers and the children who see It." Colorado
