WEDNESDAY, MARCH: It, 1916
Last Thursday evening was a big
,. night in Ripley for the *Ripley Night
School classes... It was their annual
Aehieyernent Night display held in
the auditorium of the Ripley
District High School. -Displays of
the different classes lined the walls
of the auditorium while the stage
was ' used for Mrs. Margaret
Gemmell's class in sewing to stage
their annual Fashion Show. and also
for Principal William Turvill, the
presentation of .diplomas. As in
past years, it was well attended and
ended with the serving of lunch.
One can not help thinking how
true the old saying still is -'namely
"many hands make light work". In.
in Ripley
a couple .of hours following' ,the
re -gular afternoon day classes,
many peOple moved into the high
school auditoriuM setting up dis-
plays of their.winter's work aid the
entire 'appearance of the school
auditorium was changed into that
of a' beautiful craft show.
In the friendly spirit of co-opera-
tion evident each year, two ladies,
MiSs Marie Inkster, well known
staff member at KincardMe hospit-
al, and teacher Mrs. Ruby ilimnett
of.. Holyrood had volunteered to
supervise the auditorium, while
School caretaker Murdock MacDon-
ald was home for supper- Later
when Fran. and Ab Wylds arrived
and stayed with Miss Inkster, Mrs.
Bonnett was able 'to go to the home
of her sister-in-law ,Mrs. Donnie
Peterbaugh in Ripley. At this point
the 'writer would like to say a
special' thanks to these people for
their help in 'describing the ,iterns
on display, naming the students
and teachers. They are. Mrs. Ruby
Bennett, Miss Marie Inkster, Mr.
Robert Ball of Poplar Beach, Miss
Margaret Machan, a former teach-
er at Ripley High School and now at
Kincardine. High Sell*, and our
neighbour Mrs. Carol'Fludder, also
to 'MrS. Joy. Houston of Holyrood
for, showing and explaining her
special items in leather work.
Right inside the auditorium door
was the large and colourful display
from the liquid ethbrciidery class,
teacher Mrs'. Ruby Bonnett. in' 'it
were five quilts, runners, waI
pictures and plaques. In the
display were two life like and
attractive pictures of raccooni.
Enrolled in this class were Marjorie

'and Florence Nicholson. ,
Next, along the south side, was a
desk set up with exhibits by the
leather work class taught by Marg
Machan. In it were purses, belts,
wallets,.and key eases, also special
items. Enrolled in the leather work
class „were Joy Houston, Betty Jean
MacLean, Shirley Allan, Helen
Henderson, Alta Smith, Janet
Nixon and Shirley Hackett. Box
looms showing samples of weaving
were next set up. The teacher 'of
weaving was Mrs. E. Neill. Then
across the back Or east end 'of the
auditorium was set up the display
of china and glass painting. This
class was taught by Mrs. Marion
McCharles. Enrolled in it were
Carole Chambers, Evelyn Evers,.
Jeari Hammond, Marion Ham-
mond, Marie Inkster, Pam Putman,
Helen Rogers and Marlene Wolf-
stonholme. Besides the items on
the, long tables, some were placed
beside and on the wall. Included in
this array of delicate items were
_glasses, salt and pepper shakers,
pitchers, ash trays, plates, cups
and saucers.
Next was the physical fitness
display. This class in games and
exercises for women and .girls was
taught, by Miss Gail Courtney, now
a teacher in Kincardine.
Then the display of 'knitted and
crocheted articles made by Mrs.
Margaret Blue's class, was display-
ed. In it were afgharis, table
cloths, ctiihion covers, caps, hats,
scarves, and sweaters. Enrolled in
Mrs. Blue's class were Anne Marie
Langley, Shirley MatDonald, 'Betty
Paquette, Peg Seller, Ruby Peter-
baugh, * Gladys Colwell, ,Eileen
Clark and Carol Fludder.
On the main floor at the back of
the auditorium was the display of
Mr. Robert Ball's class in upholst-
ering. On display were easy chairs,
chesterfields, and other pieces of
furniture- all nice looking and well
done. Enrolled in this class were
Mary Piel,. Glenna Farrell, Thelma
Godfrey, Janette Thompson, Barb-
ara Farrell, Mr. and Mrs. Percy
Gregg, Ida and Bill Piel.
To this writer's eye a few of the
real outstanding items in the
auditorium included the beautiful
leather and wood clock and stool
made by Mrs. Joy Houston ,of
Holyrood' (the former Joy Farrell),
the lovely table top with eleven
inlaid painted china squares made
by Miss Marie Inkster of Kincaid-
ine, the two beautiful and colourful
afghans in Mrs. Blues display, and
the chesterfield and matching easy .
chairs by Ida and Bill Piel. All work
on display was of good quality and
colourful.
The theme 'of the Fashion Show
was "Sew to save in the seventies"
arid the director and commentator
was the teacher Mrs. Margaret
Gemmell of Ripley. Mrs. Gemmel'
described each article as „the •
models appeared on stage in turn.
These .were Chris MacDonald,
Donna and Danielle Fitzgerald,
Sandra McCallum, Joan McLeod,
Brenda and Debbie McLean, Lisa
and Lynda McIntyre, Sherry and
Michelle Farrell; Mary Ann Forster
and Johnny, Billy Patterson, Steph-
en Beisel, Dorothy •Hilborn, and
Carol Fludder. Presentation of
diplomas and lunch cloied the
Achievement Night pregram.
It was .a shock to the thousands of
listeners to the 'late C.K.N.X.
television -news last Saturday
evening to learn that Tory. Gregg,
had died from a sudden heart
attack. Locally we all recall his
M.C. work at the Ripley-Huron
reunion last August. M. L. "Tory"
Gregg of 33 Highview in London,
Ontario, summer resident of Inver-
huron, .was known throughout
Western Ontario. Personal ac-
quaintance with the writer goes
back to those university years at
.Western, on the hill, when Tory
played professional hockey - cap-
tain of the colourful! Pittsburgh
Yellow Jackets, then first line right
winger on the champion Lendon
Tecumsehs. Next it was those
softball' years, with the Ripley
Flyers when Tory headed the
W.O.A.A. in Wingham.
Tory is one of two men who
supplied us with worthwhile advice
on running the Ripley Fall Fair.
His address to the Ontario Fall
Fairs convention , in the' Crystal
Ballroom in the King Edwardilotel
in Toronto, is one of the best
speeches ever given on our fall
fairs. He called it "Fall Fair Day -
A Race With the Sun". We will
miss him. Sympathy goes to his
wife who has several relatives in
this area.
