Beware of fraudulent T.V. repairmen, warns OPP Cases of building frauds perpetrated in the Midland area are now before the courts but building frauds are only one type in a myriad of frauds Another popular method of fraud is that of the television repairman says O.P.P. Constable Chuck Colson. Consumers can easily be conned into this if they are not careful about the company they deal with There have been cases where a T.V. repairman picks up your broken set and instead of doing the repairs himself he takes it to a legitimate dealer who does the work. The fraud artist then pays the dealer and returns your set with the bill increased far above the dealer's price Constable Colson also warns consumers to be leary of service people who enter homes to make repairs where none were needed to the resident's knowledge.

Cases have been reported among pets and domestic animals, par- ticularly cattle said Dr. Watson. It is believed the rabies is being spread by foxes and skunks Rabid animals act peculiar. They may be nocturnal animals and come out in the day time and will eat things they are not in the habit of eating. At the advanced stages the rabid animal froths at the mouth and is likely to attack anything regardless of its size Eventually the animal dies Dr. Watson advises people make sure their pets have up to date rabies shots and children should stay clear of stray animals An ounce of prevention could really help here Anyone suspected of being bitten by a rabid animal must undergo 14 abdominal needles which are followed by three boosters Rabies can be fatal in humans but no cases have been reported this year in Ontario FIRST AID TIP from Pine States grand opening.
