Nine and one-half hours (9:30 to 7:00) for those 16 to 18 years old.
Eight hours (10:00 to 6:00) for those 20 to 30 years old.
Lost sleep must invariably be made up.
Try to go to sleep happy.
REST
When you work, work efficiently; when you rest, rest effi­ciently; whatever you do, do it with all your might.
When resting, relax perfectly; let go.
Stop worrying; think of something else; think of some­thing cheerful.
Do not yield to impatience or to anger; they shorten life.
Think pure and beautiful thoughts; learn the beautiful thoughts of others and say them over till they become your own.
Cultivate a well-balanced mind; preserve courage and cheer.
PREVENTION OF ILLNESS OR OF A DEPRESSED STATE OF HEALTH
Study the laws of hygiene and of sanitation. Avoid patent medicines of all kinds. When ill, consult a reliable physician. Prevent illness by following the laws of health and by regular health examinations.
