NAZI SUB EXCITES ENGLISH
Excitement was caused In -Eng-
land upon report of a German
submarine In Portland Sound oft
Portland Bill, England. Accord-
ing to one report the sub spent
two, days beneath the waters of
the English channel prior to be-
ing spotted by the British destroy-
er Wolfhound, bringing it to the
top by dropping detonator bombs..
But the admiralty later said a ;
German sub merely happened to ;
pass as the destroyer dropped a
practice charge.

T SUMMER Is notoriously a period
When office efficiency sinks to a
lower level. This indicates that

ature and venti-

c o n s i d e rable
role to play in

vey was careful-
ly conducted in

try’s larger of-
fices. The fac-
tors of noise,
posture, air con-
ditions, and food

studied and tabulated. A definite
need for pick-me-up measures, par-
ticularly in mid-afternoon, was evi-
dent. Corrective measures are on
the increase, usually beginning in
executive offices and simmering
down to the workers.
An increase in the habit of drink-
ing tea in the office during the aft-
ernoon is an interesting observa-
tion, especially to' one who has just
returned from England, where he
found office managers regularly
having a cup of tea brought to
their desks about 4:30 in the after-
noon. It is supposed that this and
other pick-me-up measures will
change the 4 o'clock slump into the
“bright idea” hour.
Noise is as severe a drain on the
ph3'sical organism. First, it makes
the hearing and understanding of
manifested by heightened tension
of both voluntary and involuntary
muscles, inhibited intestinal move-
ments and diminished secretion of
the digestive glands.
Posture Studied P
Posture has been studied. One
office reports: “We are convinced
of the advantage of the posture-
hi^h level or of” I lyPe chair3 over the miscellaneous
flee efficiency. ! styles which have been i1} use her#
for a number of years. The opinion
among our clerical workers is uni-
versally favorable towards the pos-
ture chair.” a

Ited. A definite I aters. With the wide populariza-
tion of air conditioning in public
places, it is an easy prediction that
not only offices, but homes, in the
near future will be air conditioned
in the summer time against heat,
just as they are air conditioned in |
the winter time against cold.
One metal manufacturer’s office j
reported that air conditioning |

Third, intermittent noises are nat-

causes strain. Fifth, noises above
