KIPPEN Kippen is 'today a well-known ham- let on No, 4 highway abut for some years ouhen first settled Kippen 'was jest a nameless crossroads, and so it might have remained had not the eet- iers of Tuckersmidh and Stanley townships fele .the need for a pestoffice in the community, says Alta Lind Reaves in the London Free Press. Robert Bell, of Tuekersmitlh, nvas a !leader of the movement to secure a post office at "the ,corner," When it became known that Isord Elgin, the Governor General, and the .postmaster general were to visit London, 'the set- tlers decided to seize this opportunity of 'bringing she :natter of a postulfice Ihefore the offtciahs. Robert Bell iwas appointed a deleggate to London in the hope ,that he might be able 10 obtain an interview. \\•e of the ipresent day +know little of the difficulties of communication of those early days and we read with pleasure 'that 'Mir, Boll experienced no difficulty in dbraining an interview and that .his request for a post office was ,granted. .Me. Bell ,was almost overcome with joy. The settlers shad only hoped for an interview and Bell Thad not only obtained that hut also the promise ,of a post office in date near ,foature. The official shake again: "And ,svihat wontld you like to name the ,post office?" he .inquired, Bell had not been deputed the :honor of naming the new office. He ponder- ed a minute and suggested Sterling, the name Of the county in Scotland ,from •wdticlt he had come. Lt was elle official's hunt to ponder. Then he suggested ithat Sterling might ,be too Scottish le please the •settlers from other counties. '1\\Toted Mulliniger not he a more vuitable name?" inquired the official. "Thalfs .Loo Irish to suit the Scotch - men," Bell flashed ibaok and then wondered at his own audacity in +thus squelching the official's suggestion, While he stood confused the llostntas- ter-general .spoke again. "Penhaps, then, you could suggest another name " The sturdy Scotch settler's thoughts ran around in circles. Ti save his life he could think of no name save 'that of his native village in Scotland, and he was afraid that it, too, might be too Scotch. The official 'was a kindly smut who did not look ,with disdain upon the rough hands or coarse hametpun clothes of his visitor, but time was brief. ",Can yeti not .think of a .suitable name?" he asked Iby way of reminding his .visitor that other seed more ins- irortant matters required his atten- tion. "Kippen," Ball answered. ,hastily in his conllusion. "Fine," said the postmaster -general. And so Klippen it was and still is today.
