FATIGUE CAUSES
WORKERS TO MAKE
MANY MISTAKES
Especially Noticeable During
Mid-afternoon--the Zero
Hour" in Business

The condition-"too tired to
thinks familiar to nearly
everybody. When experienced by
those working under pressure,
where mental alertness is neces-
sary, it often results in errors both
large and small.
Investigations show that mid
afternoon is the time when fatigue
with its attending results is most
in evidence. Many men and
women, however, have discovered
a method to overcome this tired
feeling. They take a moment to
eat or drink something sweet and
are able to proceed with their
work with new vigor.
Candy, ice cream, cookies, small
cakes, soda-fountain beverages
and the athletes cocktail
glass of water sweetened with
sugar-are not only efficient mid
afternoon snacks, but accessible to
all. They are quickly digested and
the energy provided by the sugar
is Immediately available. Most
foods are more delicious and
nourishing with sugar. The Sugar

DOHENY TRIAL
MOVES RAPIDLY
U. S. Attorneys Expect to
End Case by Monday.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, March 15.-The
Doheny bribery trial is proceeding
50 rapidly that government attor-
neys have announced they will close
their case today or Monday.
Edward C. Finney, solicitor for the
department of interior, but in 1921
and 1922 first assistant to Albert B.
Fall, who then was the interior sec
rotary, was under cross examination
by the defense as the short Satur-
day session opened.
Before closing, Owen j. Roberts,
attorney for the government, said
he hoped to prove that Edward l..
Doheny expected to make 100000
600 out of an Elk Hills naval re-
serve oil lease which was arranged
by Fall after subordinate interior
department officials had negotiated
a preliminary contract with Do
henys company for oil, in return
for storage tank construction at
Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
The government contends Falls
action was influenced by 100000
which passed from Doheny to the
interior secretary, and that the
money was intended as a bride in
stead of as a loan. The defense
maintains the 100000 was a fully
protected loan between old friends.
