Abstract
After the war the life of the old became especially unstable by various kinds of changes in circumstance. Coupled with an increasing tendency of old age population, a house-shortage, and difficulty of occupation for older people, an interest in them has elevatad higher. Welfare counterplans for them have been strongly required but they are not enough in spite of their clues' finding. In regard to special taste, leaving food, and nutritive conditions for the old in order to examine the desired dietary life at old people's homes, this investigation has made it clear that special attentions are paid in every aspect, but still, there remain some defects, difficulties as the group of the old. On the other hand, I have found some cases to certify the fact that the old have similar points to the children, but it was of great interest.
