Any half-discerning reader
must have noticed the 'goofs'
made on this page on a couple of
recent headlines. This is the kind
of thing that gives newspaper
people nightmares, and it seems
no matter how carefully you
think you've checked, one or two
such boners will get through once
in a while,
It's true, misery likes com-
pany, and somehow it's always
rather gratifying to find that
other papers pull boners too.
A year or so ago, I met an
editor at a newspaper con-
vention, who was still shaking his
head in disbelief over a headline
in his newspaper on the wedding
write-up of two young people of
prominent families. It read,
"Couple exchange cows at
marriage ceremony."
If you believed everything you
read, you'd be in a bad way if
your eye chanced to fall on these
boners printed in newspapers
across the land:
"Mrs. Williams of the Home
Garden Club, gave a short talk on
how to keep ants out of your
blooming pants."
"Mr. and Mrs. J. Seligman
have lied most of their married
life in Hartford."
"When the baby is done
drinking, it should be unscrewed
and laid in a cool place under a
tap. If the baby does not thrive on
fresh milk, it should be boiled."
"All worshippers are
requested to p rmit ushers to eat
them. While to some this may not
seem necessary in the interest of
good taste and uniformity we
request compliance with the
practice."
"His death came as a shock for
the reason that he was at work as
usual on the day he died, and just
passed away in his sleep."
"As an encore, Miss Cassie
Brown played the old favorite,
Carry me Back to Old Virginity."
"Watch out for the pancake
supper sponstred by the Mikana
Ladies Aid."
"The contractors, having
completed rennovations to the
church hall are now adding an
extension to the parson."
"Mrs. Hawkins, proud of her
canning ,ability, took Rev.
Williams .,to the basement and

need for lavish wrappings.
All this sounds like a sensible
approach to reduce both costs
and waste (garbage) and it
should also help reduce the work
of the busy clerks,
Perhaps we Canadian
housewives should take a lesson
from our Japanese sisters and
start a similar campaign here.
showed him her well-filled
panties."
"Owing to the lack of space and
the rush of editing this issue,
several births and deaths will be
postponed until next week."
Yes, it's hilarious when other
people make mistakes. I'd like to
say I never make them myself
but there's too much evidence to
the contrary.

Tokyo wives want
no wrapping paper
What do you want
for Christmas?
Lots of good things and ten
to one you can afford most of
them.
But what would you want for
Christmas if you were a Peruvian
farm laborer working the soil of a
vast rancho for as little as 65
cents per day . .. or a fisherman
in the Philippines trying to feed,
clothe and shelter a family on
$336 a year . . or the head of an
East African family looking
forward to an income of $125 in
1972?
What can be done to help these
people?
Do we wrap up piles of
Canadian Christmas goodies and
ship them off to people in the
under developed countries?
No . because it won't help.
Hand-outs are not the answer,
What these people need is tools
and knowledge so they can help
themselves. They Can and Will if
we, who live in the affluent
countries will give them a start.
At Christmas time we talk a lot
about love and compassion and
goodwill towards men, But
talking isn't enough. Nobody can
gift-wrap all the good things of
Canadian life and mail them to
people in underdeveloped
countries.
But we can give them our
support . through your
church's world relief fund,
Oxfam or UNICEF or many other
organizations.
Mail them a cheque . . . you'll
enjoy your Christmas better.

A reader brought me a clipping
from the Japan Times which
states that a group of Tokyo
housewives told shopkeepers to
cut the wrappings and cut the
prices.
They pointed out that wrapping
paper and plastic and paper bags
are expensive and add to en-
vironmental pollution, The
Japanese housewives demanded,
and to their surprise got, the
support of four out of five
shopkeepers in their drive to
reduce prices and decrease
excessive wrapping frills.
The ladies contend that a
basket is sufficient to carry goods
bought at stores and there is no
