It also brings strangers to your door selling doubtful services. Keep your eyes peeled if you don't want to be swindled. Here's what already has hap- pened in a nearby town: A couple of men offered to fertilize a lawn for just five cents a foot. The lot was just 40 by 100 feet but the lady did not figure it out because it sounded like a bargain. It cost $200. Later she learned the `fertilizer" was just sand and water. Another pair offered to make the asphalt driveway as good as new. They put on old crank- case oil. A "nurseryman" plant - OBITUARY Mrs. M.

Most people have heard of the wandering repair men who fix chimneys and roofs that don't need fixing and then collect all they can get. Some of them are now in jail. Obviously, it is far better to buy at home. Zurich and other towns around have plenty of honest workmen. After the job is done, you know where to find them. The late Mrs. Jacobs was in her 90th year. About a year ago she fell and broke her hip and has since been in a nursing home. Prior to that time she lived with her nephew, Lindsay Wurm. Memorial service was held on Wednesday, May 10. Lindsay Wurm, known to many of this village, as he liv- ed here while attending public school, met with a very bad ac- cident about eight months ago. His left hand was crushed and his leg broken in six places. He was hosiptalized for four mon- ths, and since then has been convalescing at home, with his leg still in a cast.
