"Sometimes I feel that my heart is breaking because I am getting old. I am 70 and the world around me makes me feel it more and more every day. It seems as though everything is set up to speed us elders on our way out of it. "I get up in the morning feeling good, and glad that I have some interesting things to do during the day. I was especially glad yesterday morning. IThat night I would have thy art lessons at the university class that includes by special arrangement, 10 people past 60. "Then, all kinds of things happened during the day that reminded me I am old. A policeman held up traffic for me. I am grateful to him for the consideration but I wish he didn't have to make way for an old grandma. "In the afternoon, I went to a movie with my granddaughter. She gets in for half price because she is a teenager. I get in for half price because I am an old woman. I like saving the money, but I wish I had to pay full price because I have not yet reached the dividing line to old age. "I went to the drugstore for a prescription and am granted 10 percent off the price because I am past 65.1 like the saving of $1.70 on my medicine, but I'd rather pay full price because I am under 65, not over. "At the art class that night, I lost myself in the work. I painted. I worked with colors from a pallette. I forgot I was old - until the instructor addressed the class: 'If any of you older people think we are keeping the class too late, please tell me. You can leave anytime you feel like it.' "I am grateful for his consideration of old bones, but I wish he could realize that I probably can stay awake as long,as he can. That^s one thing old age has granted me -- freedom from the need to go to bed with the chickens. "There isn't a way we older people can feel younger, and that's as it should be. But the whole darned world is on its toes to tell us so.". - Rose H. A. It's the point of view that counts, Rose. I wish time could stand still for me, too, but it won't, so I roll with the p u n c h e s . W h e n somebody charges me a lower price for goods or services because I am older than the average, I pocket the difference because I need it, and I feel a little bit smug, the way almost everybody feels when they get something wholesale. Everybody has blessings to count. One blessing for a senior citizen is that he or she has beaten the odds and is still around to com­ plain about the statistics. The alter­ native has not yet caught up with him, thank God. Q. "I was in a three- car collision. I turned left legally and was hit by a car driven by a 30- year-old man. I am 68 WELCOME WAGON HAS USEFUL GIFTS AND HELPFUL INFORMATION FOR YOU... ALL FREE JUST ENGAGED? NEW PARENT? MOVED? and a good and safe driver all my life. The young person's car spun , around from the collision with my car. He was going too fast, as anybody could plainly see, and he spun into a big car. My car had damage to the left headlight only. The other two cars were damaged about $1,500 worth each. "The point of what I have to say is that everybody at the scene blamed me. The other two drivers yelled at me for being an old man. Some bystanders said it was 'the old man's fault for turning into the path of the little car. A motorcycle cop drove up and he cross- examined me as though he thought I had com­ mitted a crime. "I could see that he wanted to find an excuse for blaming me because I was an old man. "All about me at the scene of the accident, I could feel un­ friendliness. All I did was turn into a traffic path that was not traveled at that moment until the speeding small car appeared in a flash. I received two citations - - wrong turn and last year's license. Why should everybody be sore at me?" ~ Dan K. • A. Dan's letter bothered me, so I visited police headquarters where I talked to three motorcycle officers. Dan should have had an up-to-date license plate for his car, of course, but the lack of one did not cause the accident. One motorcop said, "Most of us tend to think a driver is less than careful if he drives without a driver's license or an up-to-date license. He is at least forgetful. There is also a tendency in many younger drivers to think of seniors as not being on their toes, so to speak, when behind the wheel. "As for me, I would rather have the world full of senior drivers than the crazy kids and selfish singles who jam the boulevard streets. I' like senior drivers. I never feel that they are to blame simply because they are seniors." The sum of it is that we seniors are mostly good drivers when we try to be, and most of us try to be. We can't af­ ford higher rates for insurance and the possibility of losing the right to drive, so we are careful. Anybody who rashly puts blame on senior drivers is at worst stupid, and at best thoughtless. Don't let it bother you, Dan. Keep on being a careful driver and a sensitive and thoughtful senior. If you have a question on the problems of aging, write to Carl Riblet Jr. at P.O. Box 40757, Tucson, Ariz. 85717. He will try to answer the question in this column.

DATED: February 21, 1983 Kathleen C. Harper, Nunda Township Clerk (Pub. Mar. 9.16 & 23,1983) ---- No. 830094 » Keepin' Healthy by Mary Richards S i x t y m i l l i o n Americans in 1980 spent 1.3 billion dollars on vitamin and mineral preparations. Is there really that much of a need to supplement our diets? The vitamin deficiency diseases of 30 years ago have all but disappeared; yet we are still being bombarded with misinformation about the supposed need for supplements of vitamins and minerals. There is not a single medical study on record that substantiates claims that vitamins will cure or prevent cancer, colds, arthritis, nearsightedness, mental problems or improve sexual potency - all of which have been claimed by vitamin promoters. That is not to say that vitamins and minerals are not necessary to maintain good health. , Everyone rfeeds vitamins and minerals, but it is a rare diet that does not supply all that is needed by the human body. The exceptions are people who are on a strict reducing diet, who have an illness that prevents them from consuming a well- rounded diet, pregnant women, infants and the elderly who do not get enough sun or have lost their interest in food. With few exceptions, the body does not produce vitamins and minerals; so they have to come from the foods we eat. It does not help the body to get more than the recommended amount of vitamins. In fact, it can damage the body. Many people believe in being on the safe side by taking extra vitamins, but the body has no nutritional use for excess vitamins. The U.S. Food and Drug administration h a s e s t a b l i s h e d recommended daily allowances (RDA) for vitamins and minerals. These are the highest amounts of vitamins, minerals and proteins that are needed by most people each day.

McHenry 385-0170 margin is built into the recommended RDAs to allow for individual differences in need and the body's capacity to absorb vitamins. They should really be thought of as guidelines. You do not have to consume all the listed RDAs for a given vitamin each day to remain healthy. What you do peed, though, is a well-balanced diet each day, because vitamins often cannot work without the presence of other foods. Vitamins A, D, and E, for example, need fats for absorption by the body. The state health department advises you not to start taking vitamin supplements unless you talk with your doctor first. What you might think is a symptom caused by a vitamin deficiency may not be a deficiency at all. It might be a symptom of a disease your doctor should be treating by other means. Vitamins should be taken only if -you cannot get enough vitamins from your diet. If you do decide that you need vitamin supplements, your best buy would not be one that provides 100 per­ cent of the required daily dose. The total amount of each vitamin you get every day in­ cludes what you get from the foods you eat plus what you take as a supplement. The total amount should not be greater than the RDA listed on the product label. Any excess fat- s o l u a b l e v i t a m i n s beyond the RDAs may be stored in fatty tissues and build up, thus c a u s i n g s e r i o u s problems. And excess water-soluable vitamins are excreted; so this is an unnecessary waste and expense] If you do buy vitamin supplements, the state h e a l t h d e p a r t m e n t advises you to keep them in a cool, dry place away from light and in the original container.
