HOW TO
EXERCI
SLEEP, FOOD AND
DRINK.
[NY BIN WILLIAM ORPEN.]
Though there is a lot of nonesense spoken and written about exerciso and about eating and drinking, there can be no doubt of the necessity of focussing as often as possible the public attention on these three subjects. For, as the doctors tell us, and as we all come to realise in time, though often too late, they are the keys to health.
I suppose the really lucky people, if they but knew it, are those who, boonuse they have ailed in their youth, have larned thereby, sooner than the rest of us, the wisdom of reasonable diet, care in eating and drinking, and sanity in exersise, and so have grown into healthy, long-lived people.. But the majority, of whom, or course, i am out, are born in vigorous health and spirits At first we eat and drink more in accordance with inclination than with elders, the advice proffered by our although we should have known, had we thought about it, that their wisdom came deep from experience, often from suffering.
When one has passed through youth to middle age Nature, who may have been jogging us occasionally before then, be comes more insistent in her warnings, and speaks in a voice which only the madmen disregard. Then we begin to take stock, to think seriously of the future, and, by revising our diet and by wise exercise, endeavour to make up for some of the vagaries of our careless past
CARELESS INDULGENCE."· Unfortunately, the number of persons who do this in time, even in middle age, is not high. Wherever one goes in the club, in the theatre, to public dinners- ope can observe tragic examples of care. less indulgence. One bears of men pass ing middle age and still smoking long Havanas as they are dressing for break- fast, spending every night of the week in a stuffy dance-room or night club, rushing from engagement to engagement, and giving themselves no time for quiet i contemplation or exercise or relaxation, and taking perhaps as few as three or four hours a night for sleep, and so on. Some persons will go from one violent extreme to the other from five hectic days of City and West End life to a couple of days of violent sport, instead of living a regular well-ordered lifel There are a hundred and one healthy exercises which attract the public, but there is only one which makes an appeal to me-Walking, and lots of it.
It is the ideal physical recreation for anyone who has a healthy pair of fert and legs. y heme is two miles distant from my studio at Earl's Court; but instead of being driven there by a car in the morning, or taking a cab or bus, I WALK. When I return home I also Walk And so I save my pocket and improve my health. I always recommend my friends to do more walking, though I very much doubt if they take my advice.
After I have finished work in the after- noon, instead of going straight home, I walk from Earl's Court into Hyde Park, and spend at least an hour there WALKING," covering some four or five and sometimes six miles: When I am in town, winter and summer, rain and sunshine, light and dark, I take that nightly walk in Hyde Park, London's free exercise ground, for which I feel real gratitude.
Sometimes I walk as many fifteen mils in a day; never less than ten. And that in London; where the tempta tion is always to ride, and never exercise the legs more than a hundred yarda. Believing that it is essential, i one can manage it, to have frequent changes of air, I spend half my time in Paris; approximately six weeks here and six there. When I am away I continue my walking exercises as in London. When not at my Paris studio I spend hours walking about the boulevards, up the Champs Elystes, round the Place de la Concorde, and in the Bois de Boulogne...

Some say they must play tennis every day to keep it. I like tennis, but how can one hope to keep playing it regular ly 7" Tennis necessitates frequat telephon- ing to somebody to make a fixture for a hurried game
Our free hours may clash; there is a good deal of waiting about and time lost. That is not good enough What one requires is regularity which a walk only can give as I saunter about the park or when going to or from my work...
