Many of the homes were furnished with the early pioneer clothing, dishes, and furniture. Mr. and Mrs. Fisher, who own the farm, have named their little village Fisherville.

The report was compiled from numerous letters, petitions, verbal comments and _ briefs submitted by the public to the committee since the proposed sites were announced: in' mid- August. The committee will review and analyze the report in an effort to determine "where we are going from here," said Mr. Ehler. At open houses on Aug. 17 and 18, held to present the four site options to the _ public, committee members suggested they might have the four choices narrowed down to one choice by the end of September. Consequ- ently, residents op- posing the four Sites, as well as ay residents who fear that extension or expansion of the Pauze dump site may be the Committee's answer to the garbage disposal problem, are anxiously awaiting Monday's release of information. The Committee has been urged to consider alternatives to landfill, such as incineration and resource recovery, for garbage disposal, and much work has been done looking into these Options, said Ehler. Those methods are more expensive than landfill, and a secure landfill site would still be necessary, even if an incinerator or recycling plant were established, to dispose of ashes and non-reclaimable waste, he warned. We're RG you asked! Jim Lynn Funeral Director IS AFUNERAL NECESSARY? Death is one of the most difficult losses we can member or. spouse. The visitation and funeral service can be 'tools' that help us accept the fact of death and per- manent separation as the real thing. It becomes a time of consolation to those who have experienced the loss - a time for friends to SHARE their grief. The funeral helps us remember the life of the lost one. It provides strength for the family and friends and communicates to all those attending that this life is now permanently separated from ours. Sometimes those who do not attend the funeral of a loved and close one suffer more afterwards. The funeral can become the first stepping stone to the rebuilding of our own lives without the presence of the deceased. Call us if you'd like more helpful information and booklets on the subject of funerals. é James H.
