Tobey. u r - rj 7"ICTORY in the present war depends as much upon the strength and efficiency of our in dustrial workers as upon the valor and skill of our armed forces. Men and wom en behind the guns must keep healthy and vigorous for all-out de fense. Weariness great enemy Dr.JameiA.TobeT effective production, which is so vital today. When the worker gets tired, his speed and accuracy are impaired, and his rate of production falls off. Fatigue may be due to many things. It may be caused by too little rest and sleep, too much physical exertion, too much nerv ous strain, too much noise and vibration, by monotonous work, and finally, by insufficient food. Tiredness in workers generally occurs late in the morning and afternoon. The individual who gets worn out by noon usually revives Jornewhat after lunch, when he has the benefit of food an a brief rest. Most fatigue can be allayed by eatine the riuht foods at the right time. In many offices and facto ries experience has shown that between-meal feedings of work ers will prevent lassitude, and result in increased production. The best foods for these extra meals are those fairly high in carbohydrates, or starches and sugars. Sandwiches, fruits and fruit juices, plain cake, and choc olate or malt flavored milk- drinks are all valuable. Such between-meal feedings should be both light and nutri tious, and should be part of the whole day's diet. Instead of eat ing a huge repast after he gets home, the worker will feel better and work better if he takes some nourishment at 3 or 4 p m., and a less hearty meal later. Sandwiches used for these snacks should be made of en riched white bread, whole wheat, rye, or dark raisin bread, all of which contain valuable vitamins and iron. The thiamine, or vita mine Bi, and the iron in these breads are both helpful in over coming fatigue. In addition to proper food, workers must also get sufficient rest and recreation They should avoid mental and emotional up sets, should do their work cheer fully, and give everything they have in support of our boys in the front lines. at one time farmed east of Nehawka was in Murray to consult his doctor early this week. He states that the C. F. Hitt family is now located in Texas and are doing very well. Mr. Hitt is working at carpentering and his eldest son.
