There is only one Way: by cutting down the period until the minimum is found. That -point should thereafter never be exceeded. But aside from the quantity, of sleep there is the question of its quality. Sleep may be but a torturing of body and brain, or it may be sweet, restora- tive repose. For perfect sleep two things aro essential: a perfect diges- tion and a mind at root.

A fatuous neurologist used to love to tell this story of patients complaining of in- somnia. A man lay dying. He sighed and said to the doctor attending him: "In my life 1 have had many, many troubles—but most of then never hap- pened.” In other words, most of ne apoil our sleep by worrying about things that will never happen to us, and thus spoil ou waking happiness as well. The truth, then, would seem to be that most of us sleep far too much. Sia hours is enough for the everage. man, six and a half for the average woman. Children, of course, need far'' more.

The Toronto .Motorcycle Club, of Toronto, Canada, recently . conducted an unique test, and in doing so broke two world's records•. Inco -operation with a Toronto motorcycle dealer that Club furnished three riders who pilot- ed a..gHarley-Davidson single cylinder motorcycle, in relays for twelve days and nights without stopping the motor. The object of the test was to establish the efficiency of this new type of Walter Andrews, Limited, local Har- ley-Davidson . dealer, reports- that in the Toronto test the new single tra- veled a total of 7,344 miles without stopping the motor and averaged ex- actly 85 miles per gallon of gasoline. Although the riders were forced to drive through heavy rains for seven days and experienced a heavy hail storm, never once did the motor falter or was it permitted to stop. There was CO attempt to make record time in this test, the drivers being held down to an average "of. twenty-five miles per hour. The previous World's record for a test of this sort was made at -Am- sterdam, Holland, establishing a mark of 6,213.7 miles and an average of 82.02 miles per gallon of gasoline. The Golden Orchids.

Educational• Value of Music. In speaking to a group of musicians with reference to providing increased facilities for instrumental instruction 1n the schools throughout our country, a well-known figure in .the 'musical world recently went on to say: "Music has usually been advocated purely as a cultural subject, but there are other pbases which have a strong- er appeal to the public in general. One is the value of music as a social and moral force. In these days, when it 1s 'such a problem with. many parents what to do to place the proper in- fluences around their growing children, I believe that themusleal or Sa niza- tion both bands and orchestra, cau be made to be a powerful influence, and that if this idea can be properly sold to the parents of this country, they will not only be willing, to have instru- mental ,.instruction introduced in, the school„but will demand that it be In- troduced. Another point which I think should be investigated is the educa- tional value of music In creating' alert- ness of mind and In aiding general mental development. Some pre141nin- ary investigations have already been made which tend to show that children who bed taken music for a"reasonable length of time averaged higher'in their school standing' than those ci:ldren who had not. If further investigation bears this out, this will furnish an additional very strong argument for including musical instrnmentiel instruction' in the schools of our country."
