ARE CARRYING IT TOO FAR
Bathing Costume for Tennis Is the Abbrevlating of an Ab-
 breviation.

This Is the day of brevity. The names of states and cities are abbrevi- ated, Christian appellations are cut short and initials substituted. The gro- cer abbreviates 'potatoes' to 'spuds" and condenSes crackers" to "crax." The butcher writes "PC" when he means pork chops" and the chemist shortens "water" to "H-2-O." The printer, referring to "a mass of baled- up type" cusses and calls if "pi." Likewise, the sport writers character ize the knock out as "KO." The doctor indicates "sod-cac" when he wants sodium cacOdylate."
 But abbreviations are not confined to words. The Tanks abbreviated the war. The rising cost of living has ab- breviated the purchasing power of a dollar. The airpane has abbreviated space, and electricity has abbreviated time itself. The laundry often abbrevI- ates the size of ones new shirt Fash Ion frequently abbreviates costumes.
 There is, however, such n thing as abbrevlating too much For in France, a bathing suit is considered sufficient railnent for one who Is in the swim ming pool. but 1t is highly objection able elsewhere. Tennis players clad in bathing suits are carrying the abbrevi- ation habit too far.

In stating the objects of the As sociation the secretary says:
 "rhe American Cotton Association is pushing forward the erection Of warehouses in every cotton produc- ing county in the cotton belt, with uniform warehouse certificates, so that the producer at all times will be supplied with warehouses for storing his cotton at the lowest possible warehouse charge, having his cotton insured and protected against. the weather, preventing the possibility oi outside adverse interests controlling end manipulating the warehouse >ys- tenn. which certainly prove calamity t1 tho producer.
