i.m By JOSEPHINE LOW MAN MORE FACTS about "that tired feeling." An individual's environment plays a most important part in his fatigue or lack of it. In every life there are conditions in environment which contribute to tiredness. The feeling of hurry produces fatigue In every one. Try to plan your life so that you can avoid it. Most folks are effected by noise although some are more susceptible than others.

The nerves of the majority are harassed by the constant barking of a dog, the blaring of a radio, the squeaking of a door and by the clash of personalities and the nervous mannerisms of others. H'eerf out as many of these "fatigues" as you can and then learn to develop a mental cut off for yourself. Stewing about irritating aetors only increases the fatigue they produce. Lots of persons fail to digest their food properly because et bad psychological surroundings at meal time. For these three periods each day, drop argumentative subjects, forget 111 humor, and avoid confusion.

Often the things we do in the name of rest and amusement may be more tiring than our work. Country and quiet, st time away from crowds, a day in bed, often are more needed than movies, dancing or the week-end party. However, rest does not necessarily call for physical rest but may he merely a change of activity and interest. This the individual must decide for himself.

Remember, too, that fallen arches and a detrimental Inner attitude are not cured by rest. Look for the hidden sources of fatigue. We fall unconsciously Into our habits of life and It takes thought and planning to change the mistakes we have made. Warren William Solves Night Driving Problem On your left hand you wear a glove.
