By MARJORIE STEINER Our vacation did not take us very far from home but we did make a stop in Rochester George Eastman House which found very interesting. His large 50-room home East Avenue was inherited the University of has been carried profit educational is open to the charge. Mr. Eastman, who never mar­ ried, built the house for himself and his mother in 1905. Built in Georgian style it is set in 10 acres of landscaped gardens. A lover of music, the Sunday evening concerts held in the Eastman home became a tradi­ tion in Rochester. A beautiful organ was one of his prized pos­ sessions. Original Much remains ing is the Eastman collection of paintings by old masters includ­ ing Sir Joshua Reynolds, Thomas Gainsborough and Anthony Van Dyck. In the conservatory mementos of Eastman’s hobby of hunting wild animals may be seen. A huge elephant’s head and heads of other animals are mounted on the walls. In the beautiful dining room of panelled oak, a display of doc­ uments, photographs and appara­ tus tell the story of Eastman’s life.

The kitchen stove is in three tiers with the oven at the top. A crockery churn and jugs and wooden bowls can be seen on the pantry shelf. Centennial Of Birth Shortly before this, on July 13, the city, and in fact the nation, had observed the centennial of the birth of George Eastman who was often spoken of as the ‘‘Father o f M o d e r n Photo­ graphy”. Biographers refer to him as ‘the inventor of the ko­ dak’. Two largely attended functions marked “George Eastman Day” in Rochester. Perhaps the most interesting was the. one at the Eastman theatre, an impressive structure which was built by him and pre­ sented to the city. Here an aud­ ience of nearly 3,000 gathered for the stamp ceremony in which the three-cent U.S. postage stamp, issued in his memory, was dedi­ cated. After addresses by government officials, Eastman Kodak Com­ pany and motion picture repre­ sentatives, special albums of the new stamps were presented to notables including Adolph Zukor, chairman of .the hoard of Para­ mount Pictures, Marion B. Fol­ som, undersecretary of the Trea­ sury, and Albert Robertson, as­ sistant postmaster general. President Sends Message A letter from President Eisen­ hower read; “I am delighted to learn of the stamp commemorat­ ing the memory of George East­ man and I am happy to send my greetings to everyone attending the ceremonies marking the issu­ ance of the stamp. You are pay­ ing tribute to a man whose name was not only synonymous with photography but intimately con­ nected with industry, music and philanthropy”. Later that day, the house in which Eastman was born on July 12, 1854, was dedicated. At Kodak Park, where the ashes of the founder of the com­ pany are buried, private cere­ monies were conducted and wreaths laid at the Eastman Memorial, The memory of George East­ man was commemorated at the University of Rochester in a ceremony preceding the Univers­ ity’s 104th commencement exer­ cises. The monument which was unveiled consists of a low granite base bearing the inscription which supports a stainless steel disk engraved with the points of the compass surrounded by stars. The compass dial is marked with the latitude and longitude of the Eastman Quadrangle where stands.

By MARJORIE STEINER OoD BITS By B.A. — That Live Inspiration shouldn't be re­ stricted to those of art. Take for instance scrubbing and cleaning, things that must be considered by we who tend the broom and clothesline. Why should we be slaves to seasons and time of day for such things?. Rather, in this era of the liberated housewife, it might seem fitting if we worked as we were inspired. An explanation to husband might be in order for a while until he became used to seeing spouse scrubbing or baking at hours heretofore alien to baking and scrubbing. First to be con­ sidered, however, are all the jobs well done. —Jobs done with inspiration, with a bit of “heart” in them— jobs that will “live”—that were done when we very well felt like doing them. Difference There are things to be said About having a son, All sturdy and round Full of riddle. The sight of a son Makes your heart swell pride; But a small daughter Melts it a little. An “open-and-closer”, A “peeker-inside”, A wide, grimy grin His acquittal. You look at the lad And your heart swells pride— Then a tiny girl Melts it a little. SUMMER - FALL Save With Gas!
