A new machine to measure fatigue cept eye on by machine—an artist's skotely @ description by an eye witness What record would you make on it? FTER years of effort to discover a means of measuring fatigue, a suc- cessful machine has at last been perfected in England. It can determine your nervous condition by testing your ability to concentrate: This fatigue machine, recently described by Dr. Winifred Cullis, Professor of Physi- ology at the London School of Medicine, has a slit, behind which a roll of paper unwinds at a speed controlled by the oper-+ ator. On the paper are dots printed at unequal intervals, The person being tested endeavors to pierce with a pointed instru- ment as many dots as he can in a given length of time, By comparing the number of dots you can punch in the morning as you come to work, with the number you are able to strike at the end of the day. your condi- tion is determined. With this machine your state of fatigue at any time can be accurately shown, your ability to concen- trate measured. Dr.Cullis,during her recent visit to Amer- ica, announced some of the resultsof exten- sive research into conditions of various branches of work which produce fatigue. One of the most important results estab- lished was that men and women in various ways waste their precious energy. It is because of this waste that they become fatigued and listless in their daily tasks. This is why so many fail and meet defeat. Today one of the greatest of 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 nervous system. Remove this cause of fatigue If you are a person of average activity you take 8,000 steps a day. The constant repetition of these jolts and jars tends to exhaust your energy—to produce that O’Sullivan’s Heels ‘ ) « Absorb the shocks that tire you out state of fatigue which is the greatest enemy you have in your work today. . You can do much to prevent this con- dition, You can climinate the shocks of pounding hard heels on still harder pave- ments, O’Sullivan’s Heels absorb the jolts and jars of walking. To secure the resiliency, the springi- ness of O’Sullivan’s Heels, the highest gtades of rubber are blended by special formula, With this blend of live, springy rubber are “compounded” the best tough- ening agents known. The compound is then “cured” or baked under high pressure. The same process that makes O'Sullivan's Heels resilient 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. Go to your shoe repairer today and have O’Sullivan’s Heels put on your shoes, With every step on hard heels you ate pounding away your energy aia SS oy oo RE NERA CONE TEES FEE) CREE CEE Re RON REE GEE TEE TST RRS NOTRE 4S HRD RRO A e-g ees Seaae7 ee ee cmrrereresy te! * sao ee
