GRANDPARENT’S DAYGRANDPARENT’S DAYGRANDPARENT’S DAYGRANDPARENT’S DAY Grandparents Day originated with Marian McQuade, a housewife in Fayette County, West Virginia. Her primary motivation was to cham-pion the cause of lonely elderly in nursing homes. She also hoped to

persuade grandchildren to tap the wisdom and heritage their grand-parents could provide. President Jimmy Carter, in 1978, proclaimed

that National Grandparents Day would be celebrated every year on the first Sunday after Labor Day.

Grandparents Day Poem Grandparents are special people with wisdom and pride. They are always offering love and kindness and are always there to guide. They often make you feel so confident and strong. Their arms are always open no matter what you did wrong. They try to help out in every way that they can. They love all their grandchildren the same whether you're a child, woman or man. They are always there to listen and to lend a helping hand. They show you respect and they try to understand. They give their love, devotion and so much more, that's easy to see. Grandparents, what perfect examples of the kind of person that we should be. - By Stacy Smith

BRAIN FITNESS READY TO GIVE YOUR BRAIN A LITTLE EXERCISE: SEE IF YOU CAN SOLVE THESE BRAIN TEASERS. #1—YOU ARE STANDING AT THREE LIGHT SWITCHES AT THE BOTTOM OF

STAIRS TO THE ATTIC. EACH ONE CORRESPONDS TO ONE OF THREE LIGHTS IN THE ATTIC, BUT YOU CANNOT SEE THE LIGHTS FROM WHERE YOU STAND. YOU CAN TURN THE SWITCHES ON AND OFF AND LEAVE THEM IN ANY POSITION. HOW CAN YOU IDENTIFY WHICH SWITCH CORRESPONDS TO WHICH LIGHT BULB IF YOU ARE ONLY ALLOWED ONE TRIP UPSTAIRS?

#2—A MAN IS TRAPPED IN A ROOM WITH ONLY TWO POSSIBLE EXITS: TWO DOORS. THROUGH THE FIRST DOOR, THERE IS A ROOM CONSTRUCTED FROM MAGNIFYING GLASS. THE BLAZING SUN INSTANTLY FRIES ANYONE OR ANY-THING THAT ENTERS. THROUGH THE SECOND DOOR, THERE IS A FIRE BREATH-ING DRAGON. HOW DOES THE MAN ESCAPE? #3—YOU HAVE A 3 GALLON JUG AND A 5 GALLON JUG. YOU NEED TO MEASURE OUT EXACTLY 7 GALLON OF WATER. HOW DO YOU DO IT? #4—YOU AND A GOOD FRIEND GO OUT AND HAVE A NICE DINNER TOGETHER, AND THE BILL IS $25. YOU AND YOUR FRIEND EACH PAY $15 IN CASH, WHICH YOUR WAITER GIVES TO THE CAHSIER. THE CASHIER HANDS BACK $5 TO THE WAITER. THE WAITER KEEPS $3 AS A TIP AND HANDS BACK $1 TO EACH OF YOU. SO, YOU AND YOUR FRIEND PAID $14 EACH FOR THE MEAL, FOR A TOTAL OF $28. THE WAITER HAS $3 AND THAT MAKES $31. WHERE DID THE EXTRA DOLLAR COME FROM? You can pick up the answers to these brainteasers at the office. They will be published in the next Manor Banner.
