It is strange how people differ in
their ideas as to what rest really
means. According to accepted au-
thority the definition Of the word is:
"A state Of quiet or repose; a cessa-
tion from motion or labor; freedom
from everything which wearies or
case with nearly every subject that
is worth discussing each individual
mind places its own Interpretation
upon the definition. What means
rest TO some persons brings no re-
freshment to others. and it must be
admitted. We suppose. that each per-
son is the best Judge of his needs.
The most widely accepted theory of
rest is to do absolutely nothing. to
lie quietly in relaxed position, to
lounge about and give ones self up
to complete repose, to do nothing
that requires any effort of will or
exertion of body. There are times
when such absolute relaxation is nee
essary for the rehabilitation of ma
ture, when mind and body worn and
