INITIALS IN WAR TIME

Words are at best only half reveal ing, said Tennyson. Then what would he have said regarding initials, which since the war, have increased in usage in England. The various departments, offices and sub offices are designated by initials and one cannot read of any war organization without coming upon them. Here, for instance, is an example of what he who runs may read. He would, of course, stop run ming immediate1y-A.D D.I.M.S M.SsF.P.D. BAF What does 1t mean? Why; that's easy. It just means Assistant Director, Implements and Machinery Department Section, Food Production Department. Board of Agriculture and Fisheries It depends entirely upon your mental makeup which is the easier. to interpret, the initials or the full title. The Manchester Guard ian tells an interesting story in this connection 1t happened during the South African war. A certain adje- tant who had congratulated himself on acquiring for his quarters a per feet mansion of a house, had not long been installed there before he receiv, ed from the general traffic manager the message. ssThe G. T. M. wants the house." If this was laconic. the reply was more so. F ran: saThe G. T. M can G. T. H." But when the ad- jutant duly appeared at G. H. O. to answer for this profane rebuff he blandly pleaded not guilty There was much speculation as to how. he would explain his message and he interpret ed it, with the sweetest Of emphasis as follows: ''The general traffic man. ager can get the house." Whereupon there was much smiling all around and the adjutant was declared not at all guilty.
