Years ago, before neuroses,

pie had the comfortable idea
that you went to sleep to rest

given us pretty conclusive
evidence that we sleep to rest

Trial Conducted
An interesting test was
conducted among a few hun
dred soldiers in California
who volunteered to stay
awake as long as possible.
Some went four days or more
without sleep. They all got
regular periods of physical
rest, not sleep. Medical tests
sh owe d that their reflexes
stayed normal, there were no
signs Of muscular fatigue, no
important shifts in body
temperature, blood pressure
or heart beat.

started to suffer loss Of

Authorizations and illusions.
Several developed symptoms
Of serious pSychoSis. Finally,
they hit the sack, and after a
few days all was well again.
Body Changes
We know what happens to
the body during sleep. Your
