king whose
name was Lirpa Loof had come from abroad and was going to visit Springfield of

other newspapers

published an interview with the rich businessman, another newspaper gave an
interesting story of his life. Another newspaper told its readers that Mr Lirpa Loof
had a meeting with the businessmen of the town, who were planning to buy coffee
from him.
The next day, April 2, the "Springfield Voice" wrote: "Of course, we are proud
that the other newspapers believed our story about the rich foreign businessman

then the second word - Lirpa Loof- from the end to the beginning, and you will
see why they must not forget that date."
