Last Friday morning, as the unexpected newt spread, Ripley was again saddened to learn that Albert Tout had passed away in bis sleep.

It was,on Friday evening August 1st and no,one could imagine that in a few short months both the organizer Ab Tout and the M.C. Tory Gregg would be . gone. As regular attendants and, participants in . these jamborees, Mr. and Mrs. Tout were known by many throughout Western Ontario. And at this time of bereayement sympathy goes to Mrs. Tout, the former Merle Weiland. Albert James Tout was born in Huron Township on Wednesday, June 14, 1905. The funeral service was held on Monday afternoon of this week at the McLennan-McCre- ath Funeral Home in Ripley with Rev. Hugh Nugent of Knox Presby- terian Church in charge.

In fact he made a clean sweep of all .the classes in rutabagas - about eight. Norman Schmidt, his father, veteran exhib- itor and judge is well known in Huron Township. Norman and his sons, including Larry, had 40 exhibits in the field crops at the Royal and were awarded 40 prizes. They had the reserve championship in hay coming in behind RUssell Bolton of Seaforth who once again was awarded the big champion- ship.' Norman took first and third in wheat sheaves, while Fran and the, writer were fifth and sixth. This was 'a turn around from the first and second atTeeswater„ Last year it was the opposite way with the. Ripley sheaves losing here but winning in Toronto.' However it gives the writer and his wife Fran a good feeling to know that they helped Norman get those exhibits' up all those stair steps to the upstairs of the East Annex in the Coliseum. Jim Richardson; last year's rutabaga king, was caught with his turnips in the field under the snow. Norman has been exhibiting at the Royal from its beginning and also for many years at the C,N.E. * * * * * The CNIB , canvass recently conducted in Ripley by the Ripley and District Lions Club• was the most successful to date.
