Hi everybody, how’s
things this week. We are
enjoying the warm weather.
Some of the residents went
outside for a closer look at
the work that’s going on.
Some of the residents went
downtown to the National
Day of Prayer services. They
enjoyed the outing and the
lunch. Lunch was from
Chick-Fil-A. Thanks a lot
for'inviting us.
Thanks to the Cinco De
Mayo dancers for coming to
perform for us they are a
great group of dancers. The
residents really enjoyed
them. Cookies and punch
was served to all, then the
residents had a chance to
break the pinata. It was
finally broken by Mrs'
Conrad.
On Wednesday we took a
trip to Fossil Rim Wild Life
Park. Ten residents got to go
on the trip. We had a won-
derful time, the animals
cooperated and staved out-
Remember the big families that people used to have? My
Mother was the youngest child in a family of seventeen chil-
dren. I was the oldest child in a family of seven children. Large
families were the norm before the industrial revolution. When
we were an agrarian society successful farmers had to raise
their own labor force. The ideal family was one where most of
the children were boys. The larger the farm, the larger family it
took to work it. A certain number of girls were required in each
family to help with the household chores such as washing,
ing, cooking, cleaning canning, working the garden andmend-

side so we could see them (I
guess they knew we had
waited a long time to take
this trip). We are planning
another trip to Fossil Rim on
the 24th of May. If you
would like to come with us
or if you would like to make
a donation to the activity
department please call
Brenda or Tausha.
We all had a wonderful
time at the Mother’s Day
Tea. Thanks to Chris LOflin

ghting a war the population declined. Was this a good thing or
bad thing? Probably a little of both.
When the war ended and the boys came marching home the
population grew by leaps and bounds in the last half of the
1940 s This generation came to be known as the “baby
boomers.” They have been credited with a revitalization of our
economy and cursed as the generation that will bankrupt social
security and Medicare. Is this a true depiction of them?
Probably not! In the decades since the forties, contraception and
abortion have proliferated and it is predicted that by the year
2045 the population globally will be declining to the point
where the people who die will not all be replaced.
One thing is certain and that is that the "baby boomers” are
not having babies enough to replace themselves. What does this
mean economically? It could mean that some time down the
road, there will not be enough people to replenish the work
force. Another interesting statistic is that conservatives are
multiplying at a faster rate than liberals. The liberals are stuck
with the " pro-life” stigma, so it would appear that liberals are
a vanishing breed. One child families are headed for extinction
because one child replaces only one parent. There should be at
least two children just to maintain the status quo.
My college economics professor used to say that raising just
one laborer required eighteen years and nine months. Using his
theory, we are a long way from solving the problem.
