Mrs. Adeline Martyn of Ripley. The chance
meeting was at the Holiday Inn there.
Others from this area on the tour were
Marie Farrell, Connie van der Hoek, and
Bette MacLeod.
Early in November Cadet Ian Macpher-
son of Ripley was chosen to represent his
Air Cadet Corps in Goderich on a three day
Flight Training event. this event originated
out of Base Trenton Ontario. The cadets
flew to Goose Bay in Labrador, after having
stopovers in Chatham N.B. and Summer -
side P.E.1. An aerial night view of New
York City, Rochester and Buffalo completed
the course, Later cadet Macpherson com-
mented It was great ... really great."
Visiting Rev, and Mrs. Glefr Macpherson
in Ripley over the recent American
Thanksgiving holiday in November were
Mrs. Macpherson's sister and husband
Greta and Charles Hall of Chicago.
A point of interest is that Mrs. Hall is both
a national and an international speed
skating referee. And she is the first woman
to hold such positions.

However, it was a "no go call" in that
when the firemen got to the firehall they did
not have to go as the folks down there called
back to say that they had it under control.
And the firemen were able to return home.
Mrs. Betty Cook, wife of Ripley fire chief
Ivan Cook, received both the alarm call and
the cancellation call. All readers who feel
that they might have a chimney fire, should
get a fresh package of baking soda and keep
it handy. Should a fire start in the pipes or
chimney, throw the box into the stove. The
heat causes the soda to give off carbon diox-
ide gas which will go up the pipes and
smother the fire by cutting off the oxygen.
Home from hospital
The people of Ripley and area will be glad
to know that Stewart Shiells was able to
come home to Riley last Saturday. It has
been a long trip both in days and in miles
since Stewart suffered his hip fracture - first
to Kincardine and District Hospital then to
St. Joseph's Hospital in London.
After surgery in St. Joe's and a stay there
it was back to Kincardine for further
recovery. Both Stewart and his wife Clara
will be glad to be home again. All wish them
well.
Pictured in last week's paper were the
Kincardine Community Singers at their an-
nual Christmas concert in the Kincardine
Knox Presbyterian Church. Among the
singers shown are these from the Ripley
Huron area - Allister MacKay, Bob Mid-
delkamp, Margaret Thompson, Elaine
Pollock, Mary Walden, and Doris Hollands.
Also with this group are Wilfrid and Dorothy
Steele of Concession 2 west in Huron
Township who are away on a trip.
