Every day in the
United States, enough
food is wasted to feed
the entire population
of France.
We waste $40,000,
000 worth of eggs every
year. They are broken
through carelessness in
shipping and packing.
We let $25,000,000
worth of po'tatoes rot
every year. The refuse
from the tables of
Washington,D.C.,with
355,000 inhabitants; is
greater than the refuse
of Paris with 2,900,000.
inhabitants.
Yet, enormous as our food waste
is, it is not our. greatest waste.
Wasting what we need most
We waste most what we need
most ENERGY.
Yet, we are not guilty of any one
serious energy w aste. Our energy
does not escape from us iri one rush like
water breaking through a dam. Rather,
it trickles out as water does -through
small leaks a little at a time, but a
tremendous total.
Fatigue the result of energy leaks
We have a certain amount of energy
stored up in us. When our energy reser
voir is full, we are vigorous, our faculties
are alert, our health is good, we are capable
of much hard. work. But when little en
ergy leaks drain this reservoir we lose our
drive, we slow up mentally, we feel peevish
and out of sorts in short, we are worn out.
How often do we start in the day feeling
fresh and full of energy, only to feel dull
and worn out by four o'clock. The little
energy leaks are to blame.

The price of fatigue 300,000
accidents a year
In American factories 500,000 prevent
able accidents occur eVery year. More
than 300,000 of these industrial accidents
are traceable directly to fatigue on the
part of the workman.
He was just a bit too slow and the
girder crushed him. His hand was just a
bit unsteady and he caught it in the
machinery. The workman is most fatigued

just before the noon whistle
and just before quitting time
at night. And it is just at
these two fatigue peaks that
eighty per cent of industrial accidents
happen.
The "pound of steak" we lack
Jack London wrote a story about the
man who just missed winning a boxing
championship because he had not eaten a
"pound of steak." The little bit of extra
energy that the pound of steak would
. have given him would have enabled him
to land the knock-out blow.
That "pound of steak," that added ounce
of energy is what most of us need.
Stop one small energy leak and we can
make the sale, win the promotion, swing
the big deal.
8,000 energy leaks a day
There is one form of energy leak we all
can stop. We can stop pounding away
our energy on hard pavements with hard
leather heels.
8,00.0 times a day our leather-shod feet hit
hard pavements or floors. Each shock
jars a mite of energy from our system.
