In the midst of three of his four generations of offspring, Joshua Finkelstein, the oldest resident in the Home of the New York Guild for the Jewish Blind at Yonkers, will celebrate his 101st birthday today (Saturday).

The memory of the deeds of Napoleon was still fresh when Finkelstein was born. The celebration will be a simple one.
