'The lucky draw for a Bruce County Tartan tray was won by Mrs. Wanda Evans of Armow in Kincardine Township. Lochalsh, Kincardine, Toronto and Ripley, come to mind.

Also surviving are her brother Henry Scott of Gibsonton, Florida; her daughter, Jean, Mrs. Flanni- gan of Thunder Bay, Ontario; her sons Rod of Yellowknife, North West Territories, and Dot. at Granum, Alberta; also nine grand- children. She was predeceased by her husband in 1973 and a brother Bill Scott. The funeral service was held in the Granum United Church on Friday, May 13, 1977 followed by interment in Granum Cemetery. * * * * * * St. Andrew's United Church was filled to capacity last Sunday morning fdt the anniversary. Rev. Douglas Dunlop of Caledonia, a former minister of the church, was the speaker. Also the Meladonte Singers of Scarborough did some wonderful singing for the occasion. Last ThurSday's (June 9, 1977) Ontario Provincial election is now history. However, from the Ri,)ley village standpoint, it was the first time the two polling booths were both in the same place - the Ripley Huron Legion Hall. In charge of the west side booth were Mrs. Florence Kirkpatrick, Mrs. Mabel Barnard, Mrs. Grace Murray and Mrs. Adeline Hackett and for the east side it was Mrs. Carol Woods, Mrs. Lila Tranter, Mrs. Marion Gamble, and Mrs. Dorothy Duvall. Mrs. Woods and Duvall, both new residents, live on William Street in the north east end of the village. Huron Township's polling booth for the rural area right around Ripley usually held in Huron Township Hall was held this time in the new Ripley Huron Community Recrea- tion Centre Complex. The results of the day's voting for Ripley were Murray Gaunt 256 votes for Liberals, Sam MacGregor 134 for the Conservatives and Mr. David Zyluk 18 for the NDP. * * * * * Mentioned in the weekly report CONTINUED ON PAGE 22 BY AB WYLDS With all those air masses moving down from the Canadian Arctic, there were heavy white frosts on two nights of the past week. Even though it was a week into the month of June, people having to drive their cars real early in the morning to travel to their jobs had to scrape the, car windshields. There was some damage to the gardens and the newly sprouted corn in the fields is tinged yellow throughout this area. It is hoped that Sunday morning's shower will bring it back. President of the Ripley Huron Legion Auxiliary, Mrs. Barbara Paquette of the 4th concession of Huron, sends along word that the ladies are planning a used book sale. This will be held at the end of July in connection with the Craft Festival. Anyone who has maga- zines, paperbacks, any books, wishing to donate these, can leave these in Lloyd Wyld's garage, Or if they want these picked up a phone call to Mrs. Paquette 395-5175 and arrangements will be made. The Auxiliary ladies will appreciate all donations as the proceeds go for service work. Thanks to Mrs. Elizabeth Fair of Ripley for an obituary 'from an Alberta newspaper on the passing of Mrs. Helen Douglas on• May 10th. Her early years were spent with the John R. MacDonald family on the fourth concession • east in Huron Township and she graduat- ed from the Ripley Continuation School. After attending Normal School, she became a school teacher.

She and her late husband, Donald Douglas, attended the first concert in the then new Ripley District High School auditorium iiiilskivem- ber 1963 and remainer the concert to say hello. It was a long time since June, 1919. After that she went to Alberta to teach.
