THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES 3. TRACEWELL.

Wrong dietetic combinations at tho
lunch hour are not q bad for ono as
the haste with which many lunches are
eaten.
The '1unch hour" Is often such in
name only; usually 1t Is half an hour
in length when it Is not IS or 70 minutes.
Such haste, either through necessity
or personal preference, is responsible
for something Of the after lunch lethargy
which overcomcs 80 many Office workers.
Too heavy q diet plays q part In this,
but the great haste with which 1t Is
consumed also has something to do
with it.
The executive, and near-executive, in
particular, is perhaps the greatest suf-
ferer, through failure to give himself q
leisurely midday meal.
He is so busy telling other people what
to do that he thinks not q second can
be spared from that delicate task.
Occupying chair all morning. he
rushes for bite to eat, then steams back
to his chair again for the afternoon ses-
sion.
There are few delicate executives ap-
parently.
Usually they have good appetites, and
plenty OF money. In addition, they have
worked up the psychological habit Of
doing what they please.
&444
This may be all right as far rs their
work goes, but when 1t comes to their
lunch, it sends them back to the swivel
chair with red faces and indigestion fol-
lowing.
Hence the lay observer may feel that
executives. as class, are not quite as
smart as they think they are. since they
do not appear to know enough to take
care Of their own health.
Consumption OF large mass Of food,
in hurry. Immediately after prolonged
brain session, with immediate resump-
ton Of more mental labor, is not con-
ducive to the best health.
Since typical executive Is an athlete,
as suggested, he may be able to stand this
sort of life for many years, but 1t will
get him in the end, If 1t is combined
with other errors in personal habits, as
as 1t 80 often seems to be. 8.
Guardians for executives, eh?
Well not exactly.
Trainers, Of course, have been tried.
1t is slightly pathetic to watch a typical
American executive, who has felt himself
declining in middle age, put himself into
the hands of some super athletic low
brow and obey his commands.
There is enough life left in the man
to enable his natural forces to rally.
usually. Like shot of some poison in
minute doses, labeled tonic" the sud-
den athletics snaps the executive to
his feet for time.
Every executive ought to be his own
mentor; he should be able to give him
self orders, as well as others.
