those doing nothing When you read this you might think that I am hinting that keeping our water supply protected will give volunteers a longer life While that is probably true my article today is referring to information contained in the Sept 2491 issue of Womans Day magazine The Womans Day article titl ed How to Prevent Disease looks at factors other than diet and exercise that promote a healthful life They state Help ing others is now known to bestow physical as well as psychological benefits The University of Michigans Survey Research Center studied 2700 people over 10 years They found that doing regular volunteer work more than any other activity dramatically in creased life expectancy Men- who did no volunteer work were two and a half times as likely to die during the study as those who donated time at least once a week The health benefits for women were not as dramatic and the researchers theorized that it may be because women already give time to other people The volunteer work must be done on a regular basis to realize health benefits Volunteers must- feel that their efforts are ap preciated One to one contact seems to give the most health benefits Although some of our volunteers are as they try to help POWER and main tain work and family life now I can feel very good about asking for help I will be increasing the volunteers life expectancy While the
