Efficiency and Fatigue.

Efficiency decreases when fatigue be-
gins. Tired muscles and eyes lose theiI
accuracy, a weary brain fails to tele-
graph the danger signal quickly enough
and another accident is added to the
list. Monotony of occupation Is quite
as productive of fatigue as intense
muscular effort. When the same
muscles are called upon to go through
the same motions over and over again
brain and body become weary and the
workman becomes q menace to himself
and his fellow workers as well.

entire year. The holiday is ordinar-
lily distinguished by Homecoming
events when, literally and figura-
lively, the fatted calf is killed. Un-
fortunately the need for regular
hours of sleep, adequate exercise
and proper food is largely over
looked at these times. And over-in-
diligence in rich food, with its in
evitable i'll effects, is just as bad a
mistake at Christmas as at any
other time.
The habit of keeping late hours
may not in itself wholly account for
such disagreeable effects as drowsi-
ness, headache and downright pros
tration, for many late hours are
spent in overheated and ill-ventil-
ated rooms. But certainly the hy-
gienic rule that adequate sleep is
desirable during the festive season
is frequently violated, especially
when children are concerned. Splen-
did radio programs will be available
during the holidays. But do not keep
consistently late hours even for the
most excellent broadcasts.
In many sections of the country
the weather is cold during the
Christmas season. Consequently
many homes are overheated and
provision for humidification is not
made at the very time when ade-
quate air motion, ample humidity
and proper temperature are especi-
