For six weeks last fall this truck was back "home" to the King Seagrave Firm in Woodstock for repairs. George and Joy McLean ac- companied by Mrs. Glen Huston made two trips to Woodstock - the first one in early October, George drove it there and the second one in November to bring the truck back to Ripley. A couple of weeks ago a mechanic from the King Seagrave was here making further minor ad- justments on the truck. While part of the fire department was in Gore Park last Tuesday evening, three firemen, Rod Mac- Donald, Harvey Pollock, and Doug Martyn were in the fire hall working at replacing the contents of the portable fire extinguishers. CPR Course Taught On Saturday and Sunday former Ripleyite Rod Mac- Donald of Kincardine was at the Ripley fire hall teaching the CPR course to two ladies, Mrs. Ma j orie (Tom) Culbert of Ripley and Mrs. Marianne (Bob) Forster of Point Clark and three Ripley firemen Doug Martyn, Bill Robinson, and Brian Pollock. The 16 hour course was in two sessions - 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday and 8 to 4 p.m. Sunday. Here CPR does not stand for the railway but for the name "Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation Cardio for heart; pulmonary for lungs; resuscitation for recovery. Rod is an ambulance at- tendant from the Kincardine and District Hospital. The partners and staff of the law firm of Crawford, Mill, Davies and Elston from their offices in Wingham, Brussels, Gorrie, and Ripley were in Toronto to attend a session of the Ontario legislature as a guest of Murray Elston MPP, a member of the firm. Atten- ding from this area were Kim Coiling, Mary and John C. MacDonald. Captain Robert T. Bisson- nette, M.D. son of Dr. and Mrs. Peter H.H. Bissonnette of Niagara -on -the -Lake and formerly of Ripley, was married on Saturday to Diana Lee Yonda of Bran- don, Manitoba. They will be living in Germany for the next three years. Royal Bank staff Ab and Fran Wylds have some busy next door neighbours here. They are the staff of the Ripley Royal Bank and we see their cars in the parking lot and on the boulevard and we sometimes wonder who is on staff there. Well last Wednesday we got the names of the present staff of three men and six ladies. They are - manager Wayne Watson, Chauncey Soderberg, and Lloyd Wor- thington assisting at present, and for the six ladies - Kate Hunter of Pine River (Conc. 6); Marj MacTavish of Smoky Hollow (Conc. 2) ; Laurie Gallant of Reids Cor- ners (Conc. 4) ; Marilyn Freer of Kincardine; Norma Klages of Lucknow; and the latest member Cindy Smith of Owen Sound. Treated to music Mrs. Eileen Nesbitt of Huron Villa in Ripley and formerly of the Second Con- cession west in Huron Township spent one morning in Kincardine last week. On Friday morning she brought around to us the following item which she had written: The residents of Princess Court, Kincardine were treated with violin and piano music by Eileen Nesbitt, Ripley. They all sang the old time pieces. Everyone sang and enjoyed it. The ones who were able, got up and danc- ed. John McMurchy Lucknow got up and had 3 waltzes at 96 years old also Norman McGregor. The women who were able got up and danced. Well- ington Avis, a resident en- joyed playing his violin. Everyone enjoyed lunch together. We all hope to have a lot of happy times together yet. Eileen says that she plans a return trip in three weeks. On Saturday, June 11, the Huron Bruce Pony Club held a fun day for horse and rider at the farm of Bill and Nina Wyld on the Sixth Concession west in Huron Township. The Ripley 4-H Horse Club was also invited. A trail ride was enjoyed on the beautiful hot day. The horse enjoyed a cooling off in the water. After the trail ride a barbecue was held with hamburgers, hot dogs and many salads. When dinner was over they went on a fun hay ride. A bonfire with roasted marshmallows and fireworks ended a fun -filled day. With the nice warm weather the past three days it seems hard to realize that just a week ago on Wednes- day morning, June 8, there were patches of white frost on the grass outside in some places. R.E. (DICK) GOODIN On Monday morning, Jim Needham of Concession 10 called to report the death of R.E. (Dick) Goodin. Friends Art and Jean Bennett of Oakville visited with Dorothy and Jim Needham Sunday evening and brought the news that Dick had died that morning in the Oakville Hospital. He had been a pa- tient there for some weeks and it was discovered that he was suffering from a brain tumor. Over the past years, Mr. and Mrs. Goodin made many trips between their home in Oakville and their cottage at Bruce Beach between the Eighth and Tenth Conces- sions of Huron Township. Many of us here got to know Dick as a judge at the big C.N.E. grain shows in the 50's and 60's. Dick was in- terested in many things. Two of these were agriculture and education. We will miss his summer visits. The funeral was held in Oakville yesterday morning, Tues- day, June 14.
