Fire destroyed the Copus green
house and an adjoining barn four
miles west of Lima with loss esti-
bated at $4,000.

The barn, built last year by Co
pus and valued at $4,000, housed a

Mailman Saves Life Of
Woman Near Ada

Because Lafayette mailman be-
lieved and practiced the slogan that
neither snow nor ice, ETC., can stop
these couriersp, during the recent
battle with snow blocked roads, he
probably saved life.
William Binkley, mail carrier on
route 2, Lafayette, found the road
blocked to the home of Mrs. Lemuel
Fisher. He got out of the car and
walked the rest of the way. When
he approached the house he found
her lying near the step with brok-
en- leg. She had fallen about noon,
and when Binkley found her at 4:30
o'clock, her clothes were already froz-
en-.
Her son and daughter-in-law, Mr..
and Mrs. Earl Fisher, who make
their home with her are employed
in Lima and were not coming home
that evening.
Mrs. Fisher is getting along nicely
in Lima Memorial hospital.
