644 VITALITY AND EFFICIENCY WITH RESTRICTED DIET. 



Attention has been called to the fact that the individual records for 

 Vea (see table 191), showed no pronounced tendency for a progressive 

 reduction in the total distance walked during the four months of the 

 experiment. This same statement applies to the average record for 

 each subject and for the total average for the group of subjects as 

 shown in table 192. This generalization of itself is justification for 

 considering the pedometer records seriously. The most conspicuous 

 exception is the case of Moy, whose record decreases with fair regu- 

 larity in the first 6 weeks, i. e., the pronounced transitional phase of 

 the experiment, from an initital value of 9.20 for October 6 to 11 to 3.11 

 for November 15 to 22. The records made during the Thanksgiving 

 recess (November 29 to December 2) and the Christmas recess (Decem- 

 ber 20 to January 6) are of interest, but not directly comparable with 

 the other records shown in the table, since at these times the men 

 naturally had freedom from college and classroom work and were at 

 liberty to walk about more than usual. With the exception of three 

 subjects, Moy, Pec, and Vea, all of the men show higher records (exclu-
