It is an accidental transposition of the initial letters or other letters i:.,two or more words. For exam­ ple, “the boxer dealt a blushing crow” or “for real enjoyment, give me a well- boiled icycle.” Some comedians inten­ tionally compose spoonerisms and use them to turn a familiar story into a laugh. For example, you remember Rindercella, who always ressed in dags. Her two sugly tep-disters and their mugly other wouldn’t let Rindercella go to the bancy fall, that the prand­ some hince was throwing. He was looking for a wife, and all the kadies in the lingdom would be at the ban- cy fall. After her two sugly tep- disters and their mugly other left, poor Rindercella sat by the ashes in the fireplace and fried and fried. Suddenly her gairy fod- mother appeared. With a wave of her wagic mand, the gairy fodmother turned a cumpkin into a poach and six mite whice into hancing porses. Then she turned Rindercella’s lags into a govely rown and put slass gippers on her feet. She sent her to the bancy fall, but warned her to* be home before twelve o’clock, because at the moke of strid-. night the poach would turn back into a cumpkin. When the prandsome hince saw Rindercella, he fell ladly in muve. He nanc- ed with her all dight, and everyone wondered who the beautiful girl was. She was so happy she forgot her gairy fodmother’s warning, until she heard the sock trike twelve. As she ran down the stairs, she lost one of her slass gippers. The prand­ some hince found it, and he went all over his kingdom searching for the beautiful lady, whose foot would slit the flipper. At last, he came to Rindercella’s house. Her oldest step-sister said, “Let me try.” But the gipper fidn’t dit. Her youngest step­ sister said, “Let me try.” But it fidn’t dit. Even their mugly other tried, itfidn’tdit. Finally, Rindercella tried and the slass gipper dit. The prandsome hince married Rindercella: he took her to his hastle and they lived cap- pily ever after. Recently, I discovered that I was unwittingly writing spoonerisms of my own. I typed a letter to my girl friend. It was the third letter I had written that morning, and for me that’s a record. I was tired, and I was hurrying because I wanted to mail the letters when I went uptown at noon. Those are my excuses: here are some excerpts from my unedited letter. “Thanks for sending me the picture of the kids. They’ve sure groan since the last time I saw them.” “We’ve had some bad stroms, but it sounds though you’re not having a terrific winter, wither.” “Our camera club had a minute last night.” Now I’m worried. I wonder how many bloopers have escaped the hasty glances I give letters before popping them into the envelopes. How many peo­ ple have chuckled or scratched their heads while reading my spoonerisms? 235- 3 /N !□/ A lT2S PRICED FOR S AVIN GS Paved Parking At Rear of Store Fresh Meaty SPARE RIBS Fresh Pork BUTT CHOPS OR ROASTS $1 29 $1 15ib: I Ib. 1 Maple Leaf Sweet Pickled Cottage Rolls b *1.29 Maple Leaf 4-2 oz.

Exeter United Church will be the host church for the local observance and the guest speaker will be Mrs. Kay Austin, a missionary on furlough from Taiwan. It will be held on March 3. The leaflet provided for the event notes that “our life in Canada is becoming a fuller and richer one as people of many cultures, many races, many creeds and many tongues have come to make their home here. As Canadians, we call our brothers and sisters around the world to share their lives with us and with one another so that all of humanity may grow into unity and wholeness through fellowship with one another. And in so doing, we are doing God’s will.” This year, the financial donation received at the services will have a special significance since it is the 60th birthday of the Women’s Inter-Church Council of Canada and it is to that group the funds will be directed. A birthday gift of $60,000 is anticipated to finance a Mr. and Mrs. Wilson Morley spent Sunday with the Bowman’s in Elmira. STRETCH YOUR DOLLARS V05 Shampoo * $|49 $|69 **¥¥♦***¥¥* 1 lb.

Whirlpool is a boon In November, the Cana­ dian Foresters, Western On­ tario Provincial Assembly, meeting in Goderich presented to Huronview funds to purchase a whirlpool bath. After some delays in in­ stallation, the bath was put into service on January 16 and, in the short space of time since then, has proven to be a boon to the Home. Residents who, because of phinful arthritic conditions or extra-sensitive skin, dreaded a regular bath, find the whirlpool not only tolerable but actually plea­ sant. The built-in lift gives them a real sense of security and the whirlpool action is definitely beneficial to arthritic joints. The only problem is that one such bath can not possibly accommodate all the residents. Hence, decisions have to be made as to which residents would benefit most from the whirlpool and such decisions appear ar­ bitrary to some of the residents not chosen. Despite this small problem, management, staff, and the residents who get to use it are very pleased with this excellent piece of equipment. And it is hoped that another can be acquired in the near future to let more residents have the ob­ vious benefit of this bathing system.
