During the summer and fall, the ladies' organizations of many churches sponsor bazaars and suppers. The members of oae group were startled by the in- structions..assigned to them. On the bulletin board in the church kitchen was tacked this note; "Will ladies responsible for making tea kindly empty teapots anti kettles, then stand in the sink." Meanwhile, a male member'of the congregation was mowing the church lawn. He paused' to wipe the perspiration from his forehead. At that moment, the minister walked by and the parishioner remarked, "Frankly, Reverend, this isn't exactly what I had in mind when I asked if there was something I could do for the church." A church treasurer and the chairman of the Board of Stewards were counting the collection one Sunday morning. She told him the number of bills, and he added the figures: "1 twenty; 3 tens; 5 nines." With his pen in mid-air, the chairman asked, "5 nines?" "Yes," the treasurer quickly assured him. I was the absent- assured him. I was the absent- minded treasurer, and the steward was the fellow who chuckled all day. My only excuse The $4 take-off...took off!

The group travelled by bus and arrived at the Home at two p.m, The residents were welcomed by Mrs. Evelyn Husay Rec. Supervisor and following a short tour of the I Home, were entertained with a variety program consisting of accordion numbers, vocal duets, tap dancing, old tyme music with several taking part in some of the dancing and a sing-a-long, A delicious lunch was served in the dining room and arrived home at five-thirty. The Seaforth Brass Band, led by Doctor Toll, entertained with a concert on family night. The band of twenty members composed of musicians from Brodhagen and Dashwood as well as from the Seaforth area. An added feature of the Tuesday evening concert was guitar and vocal selections IIIIIIIIJIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII is that our church service begins early in the morning. I'm not the only person who becomes -confused, An angry shopper returned a pop-up toaster, which wouldn't pop, to the complaints' department of a store, "You made me so think I can't mad straight," she fumed to the clerk. Do-it-yourselfers are not always helped by the instructions that are included with an unassembled article, For example, a lady opened a box containing the pieces of her new bamboo blind. She pulled out yards of rope and dozens of hooks and loops. In the bottom of the box lay a sheet of instructions, which simply advised, "If you do not use everything in this package, the blind will not work," On an insurance accident claim form, a motorist encountered the question, "Was friver sober?" He replied, "Yes, was printer?"In the mailbox one morning, a householder found a circular addressed to Redisent. He sent it back to the company explaining, "No one here named Redisent. The people's name is Oppucant." Imagine reading your obituary in the newspaper! When one irate subscriber did, he demanded a retraction, The young reporter compromised, "I never retract a story, But I'll put you in the birth column next week and give you a fresh start." A patient in a psychiatric hospital confided to the new doctor, "We like you a lot better than the last doctor we had. You seem more like one of us." In the midst of preparing dinner, a housewife was in- terrupted by a phone call. A lady from a television rating service inquired, "What picture do you have on your television set?" "A picture of my little boy, Teddy," was the reply. In an effort to add class to its summer reruns, a TV network referred to them as "Encore Telecasts," A restaurant menu ' boasted, "Our fish come from the finest schools." The printing on a carpenter's truck declared, "You should see what I saw." A sign in the window of a secondhand store enticed passersby with this an- nouncement: "Mrs. Baynes has castoff clothing of all description, and invites inspection.' , Embarrassing they may be, but double-takes brighten an otherwise dull day. • nOed /5 5,.‘9 ate0 se'at' Utz
