EDWARD DICKINSON ADDRESSES ROTARY

Edward Dickinson of East Lake Road, Livonia, and Roch­ester, was guest speaker at the Geneseo Rotary Club Monday. He'pointed out the ultimate business value of support of The Schumann Memorial Foun­dation concerts at Geneseo. During the autumn the Schumann Memorial Founda­tion brought Eugene List to Livingston County and in Jan-uasy Miss Lilian Kellir.

With a concert slated for late March it seemed timely that in his remarks which touched on the history and object of The ' Schumann Memorial Foundation he showed that the Genesee Valley was far more than just mis town or that, but actually an area about the size of Chicago. He indicated how the support of an activity in any one of the county's towns could further enterprise in all of them. He also told the club how, what started as a pleaa ureable activity of his wife in musical matters had snow­balled into a major, musicolog-lcal project

Brink Speaks To Monday Evening Class

Loren Brink, case supervisor of the Public Assistance De­partment of Livingston Coun­ty, was the guest speaker at the Monday Evening Class, held in the Wadsworth Library on Monday, Feb. 18. Mr. Brink's topic was "The Older Citizen.'' Because of the stead-ly growing number of older

people in our country today, we have to face the implica­tions for our ways of living in the future. Science has added "years to life"; we have a soc­ial responsibility to add "life to years."

In the United States, age presents a greater problem than in any other country, and we are happy that New York State is far ahead in dealing with this situation.

In the country as a whole 34% of our population is over 65 years of age. Fourteen mil­lion people, 65 and over, with this figure doubling in fifty years, is food for real concern. 50% of the men, and 00% of the women are not self-support­ing. When old age begins, it carries with the individual. 65 is set as the legal age, but it may be set by the employer as early as 35.,

This certainly creates one of the most significant social problems in the country. It has been suggested that one needs to change the thinking of the employer, to employ more of our older citizens. A good way would be a tax saving to the employer, for everyone over 66 on the payroll.

In many communities, "Gold­en Age" clubs have been formed, by organizations, clubs, churches—to provide social ac­tivity and fellowship for leisure hours. In the cities, social cen­ters have been set up with a professional Staff proving craft work, lectures, outings, em­ployment-services, etc.

In Livingston County there are 600 older citizens getting public assistance, through old age assistance, aid to the dis­abled, aid to the blind, using the mediums of the county home, nursing, convalescent and boarding homes, and home relief. In some cases, help from the children of the people is obtained.

Only action by an up-to-date community wiU insure our cit­izens the right to grow old with the peace of mind and dignity they deserve.
