Wilbur Zelinsky's model of migration, known as the "mobility transition theory," predicted that as societies industrialize and develop economically, migration patterns shift from primarily rural to urban areas. This leads to a decrease in long-distance migration and an increase in short-distance moves within urban areas.

The Wilbert Zelinsky model, also known as the "Doctrine of the First Effective Settlement," is important because it helps to explain the patterns of human settlement and migration in relation to physical geography. It highlights how certain factors such as accessibility and availability of resources influence the distribution and growth of settlements. By studying this model, researchers and planners can better understand the spatial organization of human societies.

Not really being a fan of this morbid tale, I would imagine there are variations. A very modern and sophisticated (derivative) existed in a lengthy plot which had morbid overtones, inthe comic strip the Jackson Twins in about l962. The Jackson Twins were very pro-social types and drove around in a l922 Model T Ford that was called the T for Two a pun on the popular song. While qwuite plausible and using the somewhat disreputable (dangerous senior citizens) plot device,Couched in sixties suburbia the plot had soem overtones of H&G with subharmonics of soem of Poe"s tales and a bit of counterespionage a la Hardy Boys. All came out well as the Girls had agreed upon a variety of emergency plans is things went wrong when interviewing the (strtange old twin sisters)actually only one woman, but if you can dig it up- read on.The noiton of working closely with the police (no beatnicks here) and using (underground) tactics, I thing one of the Girls played (Tea for Two) on the Organ to alert the cops of the abduction- or the police used this as a counter-signal( we are on the scene. Ina sense it(the original is a sort of proto spy story. Now we have GPS and Jeep Trackers...

: Beverly Cleary was born in McMinnville in Yamhill County, Oregon on April 12, 1916. If you like her books, you might want to read more about her in her own memoirs, The Girl from Yamhill, published in 1988, and My Own Two Feet, published in 1995. Both books were published by the William Morrow Co. If you can't find these books, you can get them on interlibrary loan through your public library. Please ask.

: She went to college and became a librarian, just like me. She and her husband, Clarence, are the proud parents of twins, a boy and a girl, who are all grown up now, of course. The Clearys live in Carmel, California. My favorite books are the Ramona Quimby books. These, with the Henry Huggins books, are considered classics in children's literature. Henry Huggins was her first published book in 1950! The settings [place where the story happens] is Portland, Oregon. Northeast Portland has a Beverly Cleary Sculpture Garden with sculptures of Ramona, Henry Huggins and his dog Ribsy. You can see Ramona's statue there. There are also some pictures of Beverly Cleary and her husband, Clarence, at that WWW link. The photo you see at the top of the page comes from that page.

: Her books are among the first "chapter" books we read in school, usually anywhere from second to fourth grade. I like the Ramona books because they are realistic. It's not always easy being young. Ramona and her family are very real people to me. The family faces real life problems, as in Ramona and Her Father when her father loses his job. But the family works hard to solve their problems. Anita Silvey in the magazine, Redbook says, "Cleary's genius lies in her ability to write books that have marvelous characters, plots, and setting for a second or third grade child, which is an extraordinarily hard thing to do." If you have a favorite book or would like to learn more about her, you can visit Beverly Cleary's Home Page which is devoted to Beverly Cleary and her works.

: I also like Runaway Ralph, Ralph S. Mouse, and Mouse on a Motorcycle. Ralph is such an appealing little guy. I found an article I liked, Ralph Biography about Ralph Le Gerbois. Some children found Ralph! At least they thought it was Ralph. Ralph turned out to be a gerbil instead.

: Beverly Cleary has won many awards for her books. She received a long overdue Newbery Award for her book, Dear Mr. Henshawin 1984. Leigh's parents were getting a divorce and he wrote to Mr. Henshaw, the author of his favorite book, to tell him about his problems. In the sequel, Strider, Leigh and his mother are having a hard time paying their bills. When Leigh finds the dog, Strider, his life changes. This book was illustrated by Paul O. Zelinsky, one of my favorite book illustrators. She also received the Laura Ingalls Wilder Award for her lifetime achievements in children's literature.
