July 11th - the second Monday
evening in the new month, hence
president Jack Farrell will be
holding a meeting of the Ripley
Agricultural Society. The Society's
snow fence has already been
erected at the back of the outfield
of the ball ,diamond so it is now
possible to get "an out of the ball
park" home run. The grass was cut
back of the school and across by
Johnny Smith's last week.
Right after the noon hour last
Tuesday, Mr. and Mrs. Martin
Phelan and family returned home.
In last week's paper we reported
that they would be in Chapeau but
there was a change in plans which
took them to visit in Sarnia.
Jim Scott of the 12th concession
corner, two blocks north of Ripley
on the 15th, the former Jim Brooks
farm, and Glen Huston of the 8th
east of Pine River have been
cleaning and 'fixing at the Ripley
Grain elevator.. On Friday Jim
brought in his tractor and levelled
the fill he had placed in the mud
holes in the road to the elevator
which will, be in use again this year
after sitting idle last summer.

At the 22nd convocation of the
University of Western Ontario in
London, held on Tuesday, June 7,
1977 two men, known in the
Lochalsh area of Ashfield Township
in particular, received their B.A.
degrees specializing in Political
Science in the Faculty of Social
Science. They were Alvin Charles
Robb of Ashfield and James
Alexander Quigley of London.
Alvin, who is well known through-
out this area, qualified by taking
extension courses. His wife Rose is
also well known in the area having
been the teacher of English in the
Ripley District High School a few
years back and now is on the staff
of the Lucknow Central School.
Alvin is to be especially congratu-
lated doing these academic studies
in addition to his regular jobs.
Alvin informs us that James
Quigley's mother was the late Jean
Long of • the 12th concession of
Ashfield and that his. father Tom
Quigley was from the Kingsbridge
area. The late .Miss Jean Long was
the well known music and school
teacher, In regard to the Quebec
problem, Mr. Robb recommends
that everyone who can, read the
article in the last June issue of
MacLean's magazine.

William Robertson of Scarbor-
ough was up from Toronto for a few
days last week visiting with his.
brother Bobby on the tenth and
with friends in the area. While here
he left a number of issues of the
Cariboo Observer which is a weekly
newspaper published .in Quesnel,
B.C. Incidentally, Quesnel, now a
very large town, celebrates its 50th
anniversary in 1978. There were
several interesting items in these
issues which show what a diverse
country this Canada really is.
Here is the story of the
competitions held at the '8th annual
Logger's Sports Day in the Quesnel
divison of the B.C. Independent
Loggers Association. Ray Cunning-
ham was the amateur champion by
placing in five of 11 major
competitiOns. Besides, his wife
Irene won first in the Kenilworth
Sales log rolling event. He was first
in the log chopping, pole bucking,
chair carving, and cross cutting
with a partner. In July now he will
compete as a professional in Prince
George's three day loggers' sports
event. But he is undecided
whether to turn professional. In the
past three years he has won 65
trophies, as well as money. As a
professional there would be times
when he might make $1500. There
are two other articles - one" about
the lady who makes apple dolls and
the man with the black Percheron
horses who gives sleigh rides.
