PRACTICAL HEALTH HINTS
Controlling Fatigue in War Workers
-By Dr. James A. 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. Billie, as an ap
prentice, at Galveston, hey are now
living at Houston. Mrs. Hitt was
formerly Margaret Hicks of Nehawka.
