There are times in everyone's life when it is necessary to use the reserve capital of nervous strength which nature provides. but it does not follow that this ought to be an every day procedure. To economise on rest, sleep, and fresh air is to be penny-wise and pound-foolish. In modern studies of efficiency it has been found that more work is often accomplished by shortea- ing hours of labour.

What is the explanation of this? In all that we do, either | consciously or unconsciously, the nervous system is the controlling power; it not only directs all the movements of the muscles, but also regulates the heat and controls the secretions of the body. The cells of the nervous system are built up during rest and sleep, and it is necessary that the body should be rested. and a sufficient amount of sleep taken to enable the nerve cells to recuperate...

There are various symptoms of fatigue. When fatigue at the end of the day is too great to be repaired by a night's sleep, and we wake up tired, something is wrong. Danger signals which it is well to note areLoss of appetite, insomnia, increase of fatigue disproportionate to the output of work,mental depression, Lack of initiative, loss of the sense of proportion, and a tendency to

WOTTY.

Even in pleasures it is possible to overwork and fatigue the body. To spend one's leisure rushing from one recreation to another, without taking time for adequate sleep and rest, is to basten the time when amusements will no longer have power to amuse, Од the other hand, it is a mistake to feel that one must always save strength for the day's work, for, many times, an evening at the theatre wakes you up, lifts you out of the rut, and makes life seem better worth living

FORGETTING ONE'S WORK. Attention is directed by the writer to the following points, which she believes may prove helpful in preventing and in recovering from fatigue-Forget your work, learn to relax, put your work away from you, and do not worry. Most people who work seem Dever able to get away from it. The minds of such people must become narrow and fatigued.

Take suitable exercise. Com- bine reasonable physical exercise with mental work. If very much fatigued from a day's work, do not over-exercise. For instance. a teacher who has been standing all day is not benefited by taking a long walk. She should get fresh air by taking a ride in an open car, sleeping out-of-doors, or by managing in some way to spend time in the open air with

out fatigue.

Eat regularly. One of the great mistakes that women sometimes make is that of not esting regul- arly and properly. The body requires food, and at regularly regular intervals. When shop- ping or when engaged in any other matter, however absorbing it may be, do not omit a regular meal.

It is not wise to eat a heavy meal when you are overfatigued; but this does not mean going entirely without food, with the idea that your body will become rested and then you can eat. It is much better, if you have been several hours without food, to take something simple like a glass of milk or buttermilk-some- thing that is easily digested--and then later to eat the meal,

The Parliamentary Labour Party and the National Executive, having considered the preliminary Peace proposals, declares that the the Treaty is defective, not so much because of this or that de- tail of wrong done, but funda mentally, in that it accepts and, indeed is based upon the very political principles which were the ultimate cause of the war.

The Treaty involvess-violation of the principles embodied - in Labour and Socialist: Conference decisions; it also violates the un- derstanding upon which - the armistice was signed, and is therefore, a repudiation of the spirit and letter of the declara- |tions of President Wilson,-- Mr. Lloyd George, “and other Allied statesmen.

always insisted that German, EN must make full reparation for the wanton destruction in all the: Allied countries, and we consider that the payment by Germany of the sum of £5,000,000,000 is not excessive in view of the damaga done.

THE SAAR COAL MINES, DA The Draft Treaty cedes to France "full ownership of the Coal Mines in the Star Basin.” The terms of the Armistice never so much as hinted at such a possibility. France should un- doubtedly receive from Germany a sufficient supply of coal to 'compensate her for the temporary loss of her own mining resourcės.. This claim can be met without handing over the population of

the Saar districts evan to: * neutral administration..

The provision in the Treaty requiring the German Goyer--| ment at the end of 15 years to buy out at a valuation the mines in any part of the Saar Valley whịch may be restored to Ger many as a result of a plebiscita, I would involve a violation of the principles of self-determination, equivalent to disguised annexs- tion.

the circumstances, the Com- mission report that £1,130 should be allowed, together with 15 guineas towards applicant's ex- penses in preparing the claim.

Rest and sleep. A safe general rule to follow is to make sure that you are getting all the sleep that you need."Waking up sleepy and tired in the morning is a pretty sure indication of a lack of sleep or a diseased condition of the body that is causing unnatur aldrowsiness and needs attention. A wise division of the day for most persona is eight hours for recreation and routine.

ARMAMENTS AND COSSERIPTION. In order to secure the concert-

compulsory military servicë," Labour believes that steps must be taken to prohibit the privately manufacture of fresh armaments and to limit existing armaments. The Treaty, on the contrary, "is likely to impose fresh burdens of this character upon the peoples as a consequence of the military occupation of the west bank of the Rhine for a period of 15 years." and possibly longer. In the circumstances it will be impos sible to take full advantage of the enforced disarmament of Ger many in order to secure general disarmamentanddemilitarisation. GERMANY AND THE LEAGUE A League of Nations, to be effective, should be an organ of international justice, inclusive of all these peoples, and not, as t will be under the Peace Treaty, a restricted instrument of the victorious coalition.
