STEINER Sixty-five delegates from 26 Senior Citizens Clubs in Ontario left a three-day conference at Five Oaks Camp, Paris, last week with much wider horizons on the work of groups interested in the older generation and with inspiration to broaden the scope of service in their own clubs. After listening to talks by men and women who are making a study of the problems of senior citizens of Ontario, Mrs. Rhoda Shapton and I, who were dele­ gates from Exeter’s Senior Cit­ izen’s Club, realized that in a town like ours, where there are no cases ,of extreme poverty, we do not know what conditions are in large cities like Toronto. We heard of cases where aged people were'hospitalized because of near-starvation. A doctor who had cared for such cases in To­ ronto remarked .that after hos­ pital care and nourishing food, these people were able to return home only to starve again.’ Closer to home, Mrs. Ethel Stokes, president of a London club, told of visiting an elderly pensioner who 'had been kept from a meeting by illness. She found him living in one very poorly furnished room for which- he paid $23 a month. Help Older People William Goulding, of the school of architecture, University of To­ ronto, who has studied the hous­ ing problems of older people in Canada, the U.S. and Europe, showed films on community housing buildings in Scandina­ via and in England; apartment buildings rented only ■ to old­ er people. This accomodation Solves the problem of those able to take care of themselves while those who need care may enter the institutions maintained for them. Mrs. Jean Good of Toronto, director of planning, Extension Department, University of To­ ronto; Miss Harriett Carr, pro­ grams branch, department of education; Miss Hope Holm- stead, representative of Red Cross Senioi' Citizens commit­ tee; Mrs. C. Corps, Toronto, and Roy . Davies, Etobicoke, were panelists in a discussion of basic ■J.......................Mil ' J His wife began to laugh loudly at him. “You silly,” she said; “fancy being superstitious after all these years! Why,, do you re­ member the first time we met? We walked under a ladder, and you said you were sure some­ thing horrible would happen to you.” ’ “Well?” said lie. problems of employment, in­ come and health. Mr. Goulding led the discus.- sion and delegates were permit­ ted to ask questions. This lead to a lively, and sometimes warm discussion, on pensions, the means test (which is very un­ popular) and the difficulty en­ countered in -obtaining hospitali­ sation after the age of 70. Emphasize Service Work During the conference, great stress was laid on the opportuni­ ties to serve which are naturals (or people in the upper age bracket. Miss Carr, who visited the Exeter club soon after its or­ ganization, said to the delegates “Get off the rocking chair, get off the shelf!” Services older folks could contribute to. their communities were helping new Canadians to learn the language and customs or their adopted country; helping mothers with the care of young families and taking part in local campaigns for worthwhile projects. Mr. Goulding said “Think of your clubs as service clubs. “Many services not being done now, cani be done by seniors; they are best equipped to do them. Look around your com­ munity for problems you cap help to solve.” He emphasized how young couples, especially new ones in the community, would appreciate the help of an older woman with mending, sewing and baby sit­ ting. The preservation of historical sites .and museums was sug­ gested) as a service for which seniors are best suited because of their experience and because they have the time to do it. On the final afternoon of the conference initial steps Were taken to organize Ontario clubs into geographical zones and the most important decision made was to drgft a constitution and to form a province-wide organiza­ tion of Senior Citizens Clubs. John Hogben, Etobicoke, was named’chairman of the commit­ tee to draft the constitution. Mrs. A. Thompson, Woodstock, Jack Slemmon.
