ra Ne VERY year 800,000 serious industrial accidents occur —@ in the United States. Authorities who have investi- gated these accidents claim that 83% of them would have been prevented had the worker not been fatigued. Throughout the world‘tremendous, ef- forts are being made to prevent the man who works with hand or brain from becoming over-fatigued. Frederick W. Taylor, the noted engi- neer, has devoted years in|planning work for the prevention of unnecessary fatigue. Frank B. Gilbreth, whose books “Fatigue Study” and “Motion Study” are land- marks, is constantly studying new ways ® to climinate fatigue. The Society of Industrial Engineers has re- cently appointed a committee of noted men to study the same important problem. New machine in England to test fatigue To aid in the study of the problem, an ingenious ma- chine has been devised ip With every step on hard heels you are pounding away your energy.

One of the most important results estab- lished is that men and women in various ways waste their precious energy. It is because of this tired-out feeling you.so often experience.

One of the greatest of these wastes comes from pounding away your energy on hard, modern pavements. Every step you take with hard leather heels or “dead” rubber heels acts as a hammer blow to your ner- vous system. If you are a person of average _ activity you take 8,000 steps aday.

The same process that makes O’Sullivan’s Heels re- silient gives them their great durability. O’Sullivan’s Heels outlast three pairs of leather heels—they often outlast two pairs of ordinary rubber heels. Stop pounding away your energy.
