Why Poets Actually Need
More Rest Than LdbOrers,
Explained By A Scientist
BY DIR. LEONARD KEENE HIRsHBERG.
tCopyr,sht 1876 by Newspaper Feature Service. IncD

pccted to originate another line to COM
plcte the couplet in rhyme.
Here are "A few of the selected lines:
"Glittering with ice here hoary hills are
seen" The fourth day rolled along and
with tho night" "Self-love forsook the
path II first pursued" What she has
done no tcars can wash away" bid
harbors open. public ways extend" and
others to make mp los of them.
These first lines were arranged in nine
sets Of q dozen each. Eight sets were
to be filed in and rhymcd without rest
during four hours. The ninth dozen was
done after a nights rest. Each poet"
recorded the time required 70 originate
and write the dozen couplets of each
set. and also recorded chow satisfied"
he felt with the work done. The degree
Of personal satisfaction or qualification
with the work in the experiments was
set down as average, the greatest en-
joyment, the greatest distaste. and me-e
tolerance.
Sleep and Originality.
Four judges graded the couplets as 10
quality, rhythm. meter, and SO on. The
increase or decrease Of ability. improve
ment and fatigue in different periods OF
given time were easily discovered. The
facts obtained show clearly that the
speed Of the work and creation of poetry
incpeases throughout and Is not at all
improved by nights rest.
Moreover. the quality OF any ''poet's"
output falls off very little, and IL but
slightly benefited by rest. Continuous
work over the four hours aids and avg
ments efficiency and facility OF the
technique. but causes a decrease and
falling Off Of interest. qualification and
personal satisfaction. with thought. ex-
preston and creative fire.
Cn the other hand. the influence OF
a nights rest, although It causes but
trifling gain in mechanical eff
cheney. actually helps the originality
Of thought. Imagination, and satisfac-
tion a hundred-fold.
The unshot of T'rof. Thorndike's In
vestigation IS to prove that fatigue
acts primarily and essentially in re-
duCing and confusing mental power.
initiative. originality. imagination.
memory. and all intellectual processes.
but interferes In a lesser degree with
muscular, mechanical. habitual and
automatic activities.
To maintain mental health and pow
er it follows from these newest ex-
periments that much more sleep and
rest are dcnanled than most patrons
of the night life and the Great White
Way are inclined to surrender.
