One heart at a time BLUEPRINT FOR PEACE No serious attempt to acheive world peace can ignore religion, Man's per- ception and practice of it are largely the stuff of history. The perversion of religion has contributed to much of the chaos and confusion evident today. However, no fair-minded per- son can overlook the profound in- fluence religion has had on social or- der a its morality and its law.

Seeing Eye Dogs This brings to mind a recent event held to raise funds for the cost of training "Seeing Eye Dogs" for helping people who are bland. On Sunday afternoon, October 5, 1986, several Lions Clubs in this area, namely - Kincardine, Ripley, Lucknow, Formosa, Teeswater, Wingham and Brussels - took part in the "Walk-A-Dog-athon" parade held in Wingham at 1 p.m. Representing the Ripley and District Lions Club was a single member and his dog - Klaus Heinisch and Cosmo. Klaus, also known to friends here as Nick, owns and operates the Shell Garage and Ser- vice Station on Main Street beside the Ripley Fireball, and there folks can meet his friendly dog. Cosmo is a purebred Siberian Husky - a proud looking dog. Klaus and Cosmo made the T.V. news as they were on parade in the Walk-A-Dog-athon. Graveside Service Held A week ago today at 11:30 a.m. on Wednesday, October 8, 1986 a graveside ser- vice was held in the Ripley cemetery for Mrs. Edna Aitchison of Toronto and a former native of Malcolm Street in Ripley. In charge of arrangements here was the MacKenzie McCreath Funeral Horne of Ripley and Lucknow with Rev. Allison Ram- say of Lucknow Presbyterian Church of- ficiating . Mrs. Edna Christine Aitchison, the former Edna McLay, passed away peacefully on Monday, October 6, 1986 in Rockcliffe Nurs- ing Home in Toronto where she was a resi- dent for several years; lately afflicted with blindness. Surviving are her son, Robert Aitchison, and her daughter, Sharon " • (Aitchison) Turner both of Toronto and grandchildren, Geoffrey and Christopher Turner of Toron- to, also several nieces and nephews. Also her sister-in-law, 'Mrs. Doris : (Aitchison) Smith of London. To all family members and relatives; sympathy is extended at this time of bereavement. Out-of-town relatives attending the graveside service as given to writer, Ab Wylds by Mrs. Helen (MacDonald) Mc- Creath, were Malcolm MacDonald of Stokes Bay, Mae MacDonald of Allenford, Reg and Shirley McGrath of Hagersville, their son Jim, wife arid family, Alex and Helen Cotton of Toronto, and with Sharon was her son and. also several or her friends from Toronto and from London, Doris Smith and friend. Edna McLay attended Ripley Public school and then in 1923 on passing the en- trance examinations (four days in length. then, one at tthe end of May and three at the end of June), she entered the Ripley Con- tinuation- School, where she was one of the high school' class of 1923.as was the writer, Ab Wylds. Of this classthere are Christena Robertson and John W. Scott and me at pre- sent. The Aitchison and Wylds families were neighbours and close friends for Several years in the thirties - the depression times, When Elmer and Ab Wylds game from the sixth concession to live on Malcolm Street, Ken and Edna were already married and living next door in the house at the east end of Malcolm Street and we were in the house just west of theirs - the big Morgan Home, later the Dorothy Thompson Nursing Home, was vacant. In 1936, my mother, Tena Wylds, came in from the sixth, Next, in the fall of 1937, Fran. Peterson came here from Kincardine as my wife, Also in.1936, the 1929 Chev Coupe was added and became a part of our family. Then a year or two later Bobby was born. Ken• and Edna then moved to Railway Street in Ripley. Later they moved to Barrie and to Toronto.

Ripley Roosters' Season Starts It is time for Intermediate Hockey again. Howard Harrison brought in the schedule for the coming season, at least the Ripley part. The Ripley Roosters open it when they visit Durham for a game on Friday, October 17 at 8 p.m. then follow with an 8:30 game a week later in Kincardine (Oct. 24). Another week later Kincardine comes over to Ripley for a 7:30 game. In this group are these teams - Kincardine, Ripley, Lucknow, Teeswater, Mildmay, Durham and Lion's Head. Visited Ab's Bee Hives On Thanksgiving weekend Ian MacEachern of Toronto was up to his Bruce Beach cottage and also called on Ab Wylds. Here he met PaulPuddy and Mrs. Pat Dug- gan of the Lucknow area. The three of us, Paul, Pat and Ab, were just returned from looking after Ab's bee hives out on the sixth concession and the one hive in Ripley here. Earlier last week Paul became known to the students at the Ripley District • School (the former high school) when he gave two talks on beekeeping to the science classes, of Mr. Bill Smith. And Mrs. Pat Duggan is the librarian at the west end Ripley Central School and also an intelligent beekeeper. Ian MacEachern is well known in the Beach area, having' started coming here years ago with his parents. Now semi- retired, so he says, he lets his daughter look after the business with his guidance. In August we had a call, from Dr. Donald Finlayson at Bruce Beach, a former graduate of the Ripley Continuation School in 1941. Don wished to bring a friend here to talk about trees. The friend was Ian MacEachern and he was quite enthused about the fact that he had just been accepted into a world-wide organization for growing trees. His branch is "The Men- of Trees", Township of Huron Branch, Bruce County, Ontario, Canada. It will be the first, in Canada. "The 0Men of Trees" was founded in 1922 by Dr. Richard St. 'Barbe Baker, O.B.E. to assist the government in Kenya to prevent that African country from becoming another Sahara Desert. The Men of Trees has spread to 48 countries and' now it is in Canada. The first founder was a Canadian. Down at Tout's Grove 4,400 trees have been planted over, a five year period. Now Ian is going to start a tree nursery on land owned by Dave Moore - retired Huron Township road superintendent. These trees will be used for spring planting along the roads in years to come. Chris Anger of Ripley has volunteered to, gather discarded hockey sticks to be used as planting stakes for support ofthe young trees, Ian is in- terested in finding volunteers who can spend a day or two in the spring in the planting and the eventual transplanting along township roads, Teeswater 4H Call Winners Prize winners • in the Teeswater 4 -II Calf Club show last Saturday were in showman- ship, Janice Needham, champion, and Paul Harris, reserve', and Andrew Hollands with his beef calf was chosen to represent Bruce County in the Guineas Class at the Royal Winter Fair in the Coliseum, Nov, 13 to 22. wCttx All .acne CIAGGIFIEOS
