We touched uoon this subject in -a m-ev- WASTE TIME DECIPHERING LONG NAMES ious article, but it's importance demands further elaboration. Proper equipment is absolutely necessary in any field of endeavor if one is determined to get the best results. In buy 1 a- far i i' ing a set of clubs there is always a chance that some blades may be Mail Clerks Stumble Every Time They See Odd poorly set or that the iron may be learn everything at once ana ignore the great importance of practice plus systematic effort, it is almost a lng maxlum that famoua college athletes do not make good golfers. If this maxim is true it is because college athletics are usually tjuiekly learned and success in tbem depends to a great extent upon natural physical advantages.

In golf Just the reverse is true. Golf is not a' game to learn In a day, a month or a year, but when one has traveled a short distance in the royal and ancient frame he finds that there is a great deal of genulnne pleasure in the learning while the exercise it entails Is a delightful health tonic It is well not to underestimate the difficulties of golf, for unless the man is prepared for them he is likely to become discouraged before he realizes the possibilities within himself a4 the recreation the game will gi him. If this hap-nens he Is likeiy to either give up th game entirely or reconcile himself to playing poorly all the days of his life. WW!

It is a real golf tragedy to be obliged to break in a new Iron club, for It means much experimenting with another loft before the player will absolutely know what he can count upon in his club. There is a possibility too that the grips of the clubs will be found too large for the flnper grip. And. in my best judgment, the finger grip is the only one for the man who expects to become an expert golfer. I wish to lay emphasis on this point.

When these little details of the clubs are settled at the outstart It will save much time and unnecessary experimenting later on. I know the Importance of the scem- 1 ONE COUNTRY MINNAPOM5. MIXNV OCT. 9. Soldier Bartfield.

For Instance, Eupposa you are a mail clerk working: at the Wichita postofflce, and in handling a bun.Hfl of letters, you come to one addressed like. this: "Christtp'aer Constantine Copper-OBsity, 1002 Belmont IMace." It would take youlonser to da-cipher the name and throw the letter to the rifilit box than It take you to throw a letter addressed to Joe John. A. V. Tasrgart, superintendent of malls at the Wichita postofttce.

Is of the opinion that for postal purposes persons should not' have long names. "It would expedite the handling cf letters were addresses confined to the first and last names with possibly an Initial! Jlr. Tagrgart says. He is certain that mail clerks lose a lot of valuable time studying long1 names. They hesiitate over a long or unusual name.

It Is human nature to do so. Then It takes longer to read a three-name address than one of ut two names. Mr. Taggart Is also strong foshort names. He believes it would be a good thing if a lot of long named persons would ask the courts to shorten their names.
