Rysy mute se zjemni a rysy Zen se vyhrani, jak se bude Zivot a zamestnani Zeny vice ptizptisobovat muIskYm zamestnanim.

Mozek se zvetSi jests vice se ueleni, jeho jednotliva stfediska budou dtikladneji spjata, takle vlastnosti, ktere jsou ones vysadou genit, zobecni u normalnich lidi.

Mnoho ueencU se shodlo na tomto obraze budouciho eloveka, a nejpodrobneji se o torn sveho casu vyslovil v Americke filosoficke spoleenosti amerciky tech profesor 11rdlieka. Dospel k tomuto obrazu srovnavacim studiem. Poukazuje na to ze lebky davnYch lidskYch plemen zridka niely uzke &list a zuby v pevne, sraZene 'fade. VYvoj k obrazu dneSniho eloveka zpiAsobila zrnena Zivota, zamestnani a stra,vy, jeji2 roznielneni nenamaha uZ, jeho kdysi ZvYkaci svalstvo. Proto se zrnenStijl Usta, rysy se zjembuji.

Po tell째 strance ztistava obraz eloveka budoucnosti, jak jej vykreslila srovnavaci veda, nezmenen a nepopiran. Ale linie vyvoje k "hlavaestvi" nejnoveji napadli uCenci, ktei'i pracuji s tak zv. meehanickYmzky. Poukazuji na to, Z'e nelze jit za iatnutou vyvojovou linii slepe, tak jako nelz'e bez v:cilarad lost na zakopech dedi6uosti. Zakony dedienosti, jak ukamil nejvYraziler y,ji vedei, opravuje a 0'1padne ptekonava prosttedi. VYvojoyou si upravi zakony tieelnosti.

Profesor Norbert Wiener z massachussetske techniky, jeden z konstrukteril fantastickych po es itacich strojt, ktere vy-

konaji za minuty prace, na neS by nejlepSi poetat potteboval roky, poukazuje j na eetne obdoby mezi konstrukci i praci t "mechanickych mozku" a stavbou mozku lidskeho. Dries elektricke okruhy v obrovskYch poeitacich strojich hodne nazorne napodobi mozkove svalstvo a zasady logi1EVETEN 1945.

Jiri kvor.

Tak jests nikdy nerozkvetl ma,j, tak nikdy kveten v srdcich nezazpival.

V zahrady lasky promenil se kraj v ptiboji vroucnosti, jiz strhl ptival Nejake velke, svate Ureeni hotelo v dali a till. se nam bratri zrnueeni a neplakali a steny, kde nas veznil neptitel, se nahle hnuly a ty jsi 6eti muzum s pevnYch eel: jsme z Zuly1 ";?::eny by ly jak dobti andele, jak v kvetech veely.

Bolesti pod tvym satkem na cele uZ nebolely.

Nejake velke, svate Ureeni haelo v dali a snad i mrtvi spici pod zemi se pousmali ky, vtelene do techto strojt, ptekonavaji mnohonasobne vYkonnost mozku pti zpracovavani problemtii, jeZ se jim uloZi. Wiener poukazuje na to, Ze na druhe strane mozek je dokonalejSi po te ' strance, Ze obsahne SirSi pole ainnosti a dava, si vlastni podnety; dale, Ze je mnohem jerrinejSi po strance eiste mechanicke.

VelikY "niechanicky mozek spottebuje kilowaty elektricke energie a kdyby nebyl velmi dtimyslne chlazen, pfehtaval by se z vlastni normalni einnosti by dostal laoreeku, ktera by jej v nekolika minu-

tach znieila. LidskY mozek, i kdyS je hod no -namahan, ohtiva krev za priAchodu jen o nejakY malt' ziomek stupne.

Lze si pfedstavit, 'te podobne, jako ma telefonni iistfedna jen omezenY poeet spoju, tak take kakly mozek ma jen urCite praeovni moSnosti a proto, kdyS si elovek pfemita pfili5 v hlave nejakou utkvelou mySlenku, nezbude mu dosti "neuronoveho" vedeni pro normalni myglenkove pochody.

V takovern plipade je jedinYm vychodiskem u mechanickeho mozku, zastavit a nakidit v gechno zpatky na nulu. JenSe v lidskem mozku nikdy nelze takto smazat minulost a zaeit od nuly. A to je vlastnost, s nit se musi pocitat.

Profesor Wiener naprosto nevefi v "hlavaee" jako eloveka budoucnost. "LidskY mozek je pravdepodobne uz dnes velikY aZ aZ a nikdo vlastne nedovede ifeelne vyuSit v'Sech moSnosti, jet ma anatomicky v mozku", tvrdi . Wiener. Sam je fiSasny pHklad. Zdalo se mu, Se vedy jsou dries pfiliS specialisovany a proto si k ciste matematice pribral radiotechniku a ballistiku, biologii, symbolickou logigu a celou techniku radaru. Loni, kdyS pfedna gel na sjezdu radioinSenYra, poSadal ho zastupce rozhla,sove spoleenosti, aby spoleenosti postoupil ptednaSku pro vysilani na kratkYch ylnach a pomohl ji v nekterych technicky nesnadnYch eastech pteloZit. Profesor Wiener nepotteboval ptekladatele, protole sam ovlada krome anglietiny pal tuctu evropskYch jazykil, sanskrit "a ovsem mandarinskou einStinu". Talde lze vetit, Se vi, o eem mluvi, kdyZ rika, Se by vetSi mozek eloveka byl jen na obtiS, protoSe by se pri zvetsenem poetu neuronovYch spoilt easteji vyskytovaly vnitfni poruchy.

Spot staty chti silne Japonsko. Statni tajemnik Acheson nedavno udinil tajnY navrh ostatnim spoleeniktm v Tichern oceane, ktery by umo gnili Japonsku navrat do rodiny narodu. Navrh tajemnika Achesona jest ptizptsoben, aby poskytnul japonsku ptilegitosti, o neg bylo zkraceno nasledkem neexistence mirove smlouvy.

Urnoinilo by to Japonsku znovu brat 1:least v nekterVeh mezinarodnich organismith; aby uzaviralo dohody, ktere se tYkaji obchodnich stykt s cizimi zememi; teastniti se nekterYch mezinarodnich konferenci a ustanoviti svoje vlastni obchodni zastupitelstvi v zahraniei. Japonsko vidi, ge jeho byvaly spoleenik v ose, Nemeeko alespoti zapadni Nemecko, smetuje rychie smerem ke zvykenemu stupni nezavislosti a ge zaeina se uchazeti o silnejki postaveni na SvetovYch trzich.

A to zvyguje zajem Japonska o podobnou ptilegitost, ae by mnohem radeji davalo ptednost uzavteni mirove smlouvy, co g se vkak ukazalo nemo gnYm vzhledem k nedohode mezi mocnostmi Ticheho ocednu.

Statni tajemnik Acheson uvadi, ge povolenim Japonsku uazvirati obchodni dohody, a vysilanim obchodnich zastupet. do zahraniei, japonsky trh by rnohl byti znaene rozkiten a Spoj. staty by nemusely poskytovati ka gdoroeni subvenci Japonsku v easti dtyt set milionu dolart.

Mill etenari Vestniku!

Ten leto§ni na g Den matek ji.2 path minulosti, proZili jsme ho krasne, tak asi ja, ko v gichni jini, jak videt z Vestniku byl ten den hodne oslaven. Nam se o to postarali na gi tatinkove, totiZ bratri na geho radu Bedrich Smetana. Abysme se meii dobre na ten den, zao-patrili barbecue a chleb a my sestry jsme se postaraly o zakusky. Men jsme stul pies celou sin a malern ze by bylo pro vice jidla mista, vge vyhliZelo talc dobre, ze jeden nevedel, co by si mel vzit. Poeasi nam tez pralo, byl krasny den, take nav g teva se IA dle toho rovnala. Nejvice nas te gila naygteva rodiny bratra taj. Hlavni firadovny, p. a pi. Chupick a jejich sliena dceru gka Mary Francis. Sleena Chupickova nas krasne pobavila. Prednesla proslov vztahujici se ku oslave Dne matek v anglicke reel, kterY se vsem libl. Ac jeste mladieka a jiZ se proslavila co talentovana reenice..Preji ji mnoho zdaru do budoucna. Pan Chupick k ram promlu-vil eesky i anglicky, ja.k se rika od srdce k srdci, tak pane po texasku. Byli bysme ho poslouchali do yeeera.

Vylieil slash a stra,sti a pribehy ceskych pionYrix, na gich otctii a matek. Dekujeme Vain — KdyZ jsem p. Chupicka talc poslouchala, talc me vzpominky zaletly do doby r. 1877. Ma vzporainka platila pi.

Jim Grayove, ac ja jsem ji nikdy nepoznala, neb ona drima vecny sen jiz asi 60 let, ale co nam na ge Maminka o ni vypravela, z toho jsem poznala, ze byla dobrou matkou nejen jejim detem, ale kaZGlem,u kdo poradu a zastani mateino potreboval. Na g i rodiee sem prijeli ze nic na Morave na jare roku 1876 do Caldwell, Tex. Jak p. Chupick podotkl, co nej vice gkodilo eeskYm pristehovalcum byla neznalost a.nglicke reel a zptisob Zivota.

Tak tomu bylo i s na g imi rodiei, jenZe oni men §-testi. Hned prvni zimu se dostali na farmu p. Jim Gray-e, byli to stargi Pani Grayove se jich ujala jako s yYch deti, radou i skutkem byla jim vhly na,pornocna. Maminka nam easteji vypravela jak se ueila anglicky. Nejvice me utkvelo v pameti jak hned v to prvni zimu radii v okoli Cerny kag el "whooping cough".

Paul Grayove, rikala na gi mamince, aby si koupila 4 yardy flanelu a u gila detem teple spodni obleeeni, ze nedostanou ten ka gel tak zlY. Maminka gla dome. NeZli dogla talc si to popletla, rekla tatinkovi, ze pani Grayova rikala ji, aby koupila 4 yardy "whooping cough" a u gila detem teple ololeeeni, ze nedostanou ten kagel talc zlY. Tatinek se ji tazal, jestli se zeptala kolik yard toho "whooping cough"

VtSTN'tX—WEST,TEXAS

stoji. Ona, ze ne. Tak 'Ala zpaticy se zeptat.

Pan Gray met nav gtevu, sedeli kolern ohne u kornina, maminka vesla dovnitk a pta se pani Grayove, jak to nejlepe mohla: "How much yard whooping cough cost?" Pan Gray byl jiZ stargi elovek, ale etverak, rekl mamince: "Sometimes ten dollars". On tim minil leky a podobne.

Maminka zase jak dovedla talc sepjala ruce a rekla: "Too much money, me no money, me no buy." HitOmni mohli smichy popukat, ale ne pi. Grayovd. Ona vzala maminku do kuchyne, zakaglala, to 'le je ten whooping cough a ukdzala ji kousek flanelu, to ze je ten flanel. 1Vlarninka rikala, ze se citila v gelijak, ze se talc popletla,, ale zato jeji angljelca mluvnice byla o dye slova bohatgi, talc se ji to vyrovnalo. Pak ueila pi. Grayova maminicu slovo za slovem, k do trech mesicri se domluvily, a za neja,ky eas maminka delala tamnej gimu Micah humoenika, kdy2 byl nekdo v eeskych rodinach nemocen. A to jen vge zasluhou pi. Grayove. 8koda, ze slee. Jarvis si nevzpomela zavest ten svatek "Den matek" aspori o 25 let Mlle, mohla pani Grayove zaZit to pocty a zajiste si ji zaslouZila.

Tak jegte jednou dekujern rodin y pana Chupicka za naystevu a krasne proslovy, a tern na gim tatinkurn teZ. Snad se nam nekdy naskytne prilditost yam za to aspoil easteene oplatit.

Zdravi vgechny etouci Frances Homola. )• Temple, Texas.

Dnes jest na gi hlavni otazkou, jak ziskati co nejvice na gi mladeZe do Jednoty a vzbuditi jejich zajem o schrize. Kdo by mohl podat nejakY navod na povzbuzeni toho zajmu, byl by vitan. Ja, sama si nemohu. vzpomet na nic, co by bylo jiste, aby zaeali chodit do schrizi zavedenim anglicke reel. Myslim, ze to v gichni vine, ze to prijde samo sebou, at' si ptejeme nebo ne, kdyZ mladeZe nebude, ktera, by umela eesky Cist a psat a vyjadrit se v eatine. Ale ja myslim, ze jejich zajem o spolek a schrize mel jim bYti dan hned z domova, kde byl jejich za,eatek cele vYchovy. Ja nevim jestli anglietina nam je privede do schrizi, vklyt' i mezi stargim clenstvem neni tak velky zajem je slyget malem odevgad, ze jsou slabe navgtevy.

S. P. StudnienY. ) e4 Houston, Tex. CtenY bratre redaktore!

Zkusim dovedu-h napsati jen "par f4adka" a to udelati srozumitelnYm. V prvni rade: budia me dovoleno omluviti se zdejeimu houstonskemu usedliku, p. Janu KaAparovi. Kdya jsem psala "Vzpominky", kde upozornovala jsem na praci ses. Kraftove, zminila jsem se o Sokolu v Houstone. Psala jsern, kdo se o jeho po treti zaloaeni pricinili. Nebylo me opravdu znamo, ae jednim ze zakladatelti byl Jan Kaspar a p. J. G. (?) Kupec. Nevedomost tut() zavinilo mnoho nemoci v rodine. Kdo se negaeastriuje spolkoveho ruchu, oveem ae mai° nebo zcela nic o tom vi. Na omyl upozornil mne mai manael. mne o opravu z toho dtvodu, ze muj mua (teZ ma maliekost) a p. Kaepar, nepestujeme "kvety pratelstvi", ale pravda aada sve.

Moje silnejei polovice zkratka rekl (a) : "Poslouchej, poMd chcee aby kaadY svou vymerenou mu povinnost konal spravne, pak konej ji take tak! Pamatuj, ae kaadY PadnY elovek kona yee jak se narizuje; "Co nechcee aby einili Tobe, neeiri Ty jim", coa ye skuteenosti jsi neueinila v posledni avaze ve Vestniku! Prekvapena divam se na rodiny me "hlavu" a pravim: Co pak se zas stalo? On milj mua vadycky

specha a bez mefeni klaCtivem tlude na kaady hrebik. "Stalo se to, ae's psala jen phi pravdy a to je horSi neZ nic.", pravi.

Po vysvetleni slibila jsem napravu a ta je tedy zde. Mimo toho upozornena jsem byla, ae pri overovani darn pro onen Sokolsky bazar v loni, nejakYm padem "vypadlo" jmeno a dar jedne ze zdejeich nasokolskYch pracovnic, ktera nechce abych ji jmenovala jen samotnou. Protoge na- omyl mne upozornila take jedna druha spolupracovnice, ktera, v peelivosti dbala poradku, omyl jsme v krouaku opravily. Dle mall° nazoru, neni potreba nikdy se ukrYvati ani za ornY1 se stydeti.

Zapomene-li Clo y& v tom narodnim ruchu sam na sebe (ses. Helena Teperova vge zapisovala), to znamend krasnY rys povahy Cloveka pracujiciho pro vzajemne dobro. Na druhe strane, kdy2 se stane a Cloy& udela ehybu — a nechce sam sobe namlouvati, ze je ua tak dokonalY, ae mu netkeba se omluviti nebo poladati za prominuti, komu nevedomky ublilil tak chte, nechte to udela. Pitme-li to ten druhy, na tom pak zalezi. Upozorfruji, ae "omyl" neni "zloain", ale oba maji sve stupne a proto se ueime, abychom "dvakrat merili a pak kezali", jinak tedeno, nautili se skutkem praktikovati krasne zlate reeni: "Co nechce .g aby tobe &nth, neein ty jim".

Pro zajima,vost mimochodem poznamenavam, ce asi pied 12 lety jsem nemel tadnych poti gi zjistiti rodokmen sveho otce, datujici se od 16. stoleti, ponevadZ jeho ptedkove byli majitele statku a katolici. Co se tyee me matky, nemohl jsem zjistiti nic, i kdy g mezi jejimi pfedky byli pravnici, ministti a lekati, ponevadi byli protestanti a zaznamy o nich se nesmely uchovat. Ceska kultura se vyvinula nejdtive, ponevad g mela blizko ke kultute tecke a timske.

Polska a ruska kultura byla vytvotena pOdle deskeho vzoru a Ptig la pozdeji vlivem sve zamepisne polohy a natlaku neptatelskYch soused& Je ironii osudu, ge ruskYm Slovanum ma bYti upteno ye vYvoji jejich vrozene povahy a. rysu. Pod carskou vladou nabogenstvi bylo podporovano, ale kulturni vyvoj nebyl dovolen. Masy obyvatel byly nevolniky. Je pravda, ze za komunistickeho re gimu v danem easovem obdobi se naueilo Gist a psat vice lidi, ne g se miige iici o kteremkoli jinem narode na celem svete, ale nabo genstvi je zakazovano nebo prondsledovano, svoboda ducha a svedomi je omezovana, individuality a dustojnost eloveka se neuznava; dokonce dedieke pravo je potirano a jeho uznani je zakazano zakonem. Masy jig nejsou nevolniky, nejsou otroky, ale jsou na torn hate ne g pied tim; jsou roboty.

Vgechny tyto praktiky jsou neptirozene a jednoho dne pravda zvitezi. V tom, ge masam je dana ptilegitost naueiti se Gist, nrage bYt ptieina padu komunistickeho rainy& ponevad g vzdelane obyvatelstvo nestrpi despotismus.

Patrala, od ktere doby se ji zprotivil a tu ke svemu ritasu si ptipomdela slavnost, tanec s Jirakem, jeho do-; tyk nohou pod stolen. Hned tenkrate po ni toutil, jente ona mu nerozurnela a linevala se nail. Potom ptiela cesta do Prahy a skoro s ridivem si ptipominala, jak se s nim setkala a jak najednou menil se jeji nailed o nem.

Byl, pravda, rortomilY, ale to jeete nebyla Ani tenkrat ne, kdyt ye vlaku ji zlibal. Pamatovala se, jak, kdyt minulo prvni opojeni, mela zlost a jak si umiriovala, to se s nim ut nesetka. A setkala se, a to tiZ ji bylo jasno, to to byla laska ,kterd je svedla.

Lasko.? Zastavila se u toho slova. Nebylo piece motno, aby se men tak brzy radi, kdyt se pied tim neznali a kdA ji by! Jirak v prve dobe krajne neptijemny. Kdyi se setkala s T:Tlovcem, ten na prvy pohled ji byl mil' a citila k nemu naklonnost. Ale snad to take laska nebyla, otec ji ho vychvalil, licil ji, jakou pani bude a jak stoupne v oeich lidi. Ano, to take nebyla laska, laska se v ni zrodila at veera pii setkani v lase. To bylo cosi earovneho, to bylO cosi, co veechny jeji nervy rozpalila a co ji uvedlo na vrchol etesti.

Kdo to jen byl, kdo je, videl? A co si ten clovek myslel? A poznal Jiraka?

Musi se diviti, to ji Ulovec, kterY jiste feechno vi, nevyhnal. Ona, kdyby se nan soci takoveho dovedela, ani hodinu by ho vedle sebe nestrpela. Musi ji miti rad, kdyt se ji nechce nark zbavovati. Nebo snad je mu lito penez. To spie. Mamoni, aby met brzy statek bez dluhil a nevi asi, kde sehnat penize. A musi je sehnat, ona nepovoli a neptijde k Jirakovi s ho1Yrna rukama.

Zase se vracel obraz tlovctiv a zaeala ho litovati. Sam si nic nedopteje, ale li ye -dem vyhovel a nikdy netekl, to by toho Ci onoho vydani bylo ekoda. On se odeni a rada by vedela, koho si vybere.

Jiste zase nejakou hezkou zamotnou, ted' ut dvur krasne vypada a mnoha bude za etesti povatovat, kdyt se sem dostane. Zde, kde ona leti, bude zase jina letet, Oldiich vedle ni a budou si o ni povidat. Jiste se ji budou smat a to jeji nastupkyne ho bade ujiet`ovat, to to, co ona, Sabina, vykonala, bylo ohavne.

At' si povidaji co chteji, tekla si zlostne, ona bude jeete et'astriefei, bude pani tovarnikovou, mud koupi auto, bude ji

Strana 13 vozit po okoli i do Prahy, na zabavy prijdou, pani se budou o jeji spoleenost ptedstihovat a ona pii tom se bude smat, draldit je a doma mukvi vypravovat, jak si z nich blazny tropi.

Ospalost ji pke•ohla a spanek ptesttihl nit jejich myelenek. Kdy'd se nano probudila, byl venku nevlidnk den a nechtelo se ji s loge. Ptevalovala, se a zase myslila na to, co se ji veder hlavou honilo.

Mu2 jiste Vella venku, ale at' beha, bez-; toho nic lePSiho neumi. Ona ma nyni pokpj a milk . lekti aZ do poledne. DoSla ke dvetjrn a zavolav§i na Markytu, na •izovala ji, aby ji piinesla snidani k posteli, a kdyZ to tak stalo, chladne poroudela, co ma k obeclu vaiiti.

Na nic ani nesahnu, uminovala si vzdorovite, nevdavala jsem se, abych delala slaku. Namidala se, myslila si, to jeete usne, ale nemohouc usnouti, po chvili vstala a zaeala se strojiti. Byla svkin vzetenini spokojena a. majic dlouhou chvili, vy'Sla yen na dviir. At' ji eeladka vidi, aby si nemyslila, to uz zde nidim nerd. Dokud jsou na dvorci penize, je tu take ona, pani a yyZene kaZdeho, kdo by se k ni neuctive choval. Do gla ke drtibeZniku, kterk side nebyl ut talc detne napinen, ale piece jen poskytcval obraz ru'Sneho Zivota. Poslala jednu ze Zen pro zrni a sypajic drabeli, bavila, se pohledem, jak se perou, zapasi, hudruji a bublaji a z jeji dt0e Odchazely mraky.

Hezky je zde, kekla si, odchazejic cd drabeZniku. Mezi vrata vySla, podivala se na aleje a pole, ale tam uZ nebylo nic k videni. Pole byla hold, st•omy tame' bez listi a kdyZ se jeji pohled stodil stranou, spattila les. Ani tam neni jiste nic pkijemneho. Layidka u dubu se ji zjevila a zvla gtni vzrukni ji zahkbalo.

Tam sedela a tarn proZivala opojnou rozkal. Nemohla v teto chvili pochopiti, kterak k tomu doglo a jak mohia do takoveho rozerieni upadnouti. Opravdu byla jak beze srnysld a skoro se nyni lekla pii vzpomince, to nebyla, daleka podlehnouti vani ke skutku, kterk by ji byl navZdy vazal. A co by si byl ten neznamk divak kdyby byl videl, Ceho vklio je Schopna!

Zamrazilo ji a zahanbeni sevtelo jeji nitro. rote je tak prudka, a ze neuvaZi nebezpeeenstvi, do ktereho ,se pouai?

Kdyby slysela, k se neeeho takoveho Markyta dopouSti, byla by rozezlena, odsoudila by takovou chavnost a gtitila by se ji. A ona by se byla nieeho takoveho nedopustila, to byl Jirak, kterk ji kterk ji kolern pasA chytal a libal. Ano, dobie se pamatuje, jak to zadalo a potom ovkm ona ztratila nad sebou vladu a zahotela take.

Hlavu mimodek svesila a s1a k clomovu.

Vi-li Oldtich o vkm, neni divu, de je rozezlen. Je to jeji mut a kdyby ona hp

etrana 14 napadla s jinou v lese, snad by je zablla. Ma, skuteene rada Jiraka? Nutila se k ptesvedeeni, ze ma, ale co to, 2e ted' je ji dolt lhostejnST, ze u2 nan s takovou vaAni nevzpamina? Ci je snad pouze rozeilenim tak zemdlena a jeji city na chvlli ochably?

Kdy2 ptiSel tlovec v poledne k jidlu, byl ptekvapen zmenou v chovani Sabinine. Zdo.la se mu veseld, dru2na a jako by vAechna vzdorovitost s ni. ,spadla.

OFFICIAL ORGAN OF SLAVONIC BENEVOLENT ORDER OF THE STATE OF TEXAS

VESTNIK

Speak Up For Your Lodge As a man must believe in himself to have the strength to carve out his own destiny, so must a group of persons organized in a club or society. This applies to our lodges and our fraternal insurance.

So recent has been the origin of the fraternal insurance that every fraternal organization of more than thirty or forty years may justly be regarded as a pioneer. It developed through the trial and error method. It had been compell, ed to stand plenty ridicule and a good deal of sneering as to the folly of cooperative insurance.

In spite of this, fraternalism achieved astounding success. In spite of adverse talk about the decline of fraternalism, every year reveals substantial gains in financial strenAth, in membership, in insurance being in force, in reserves and refunds. Some day, we shall give you the statistical compilations to show the' strength of fraternalism in the United States. In short time we shall also compare our own SPJST with some twentyfive other Czech and Slovak fraternal! organizations. We do wish our own members to know where the SPJST stands! when compared with the others.

In our recent talk with the officers of the Supreme Lodge, we were given a I very encouraging preliminary report.

This will be passed on to the members as soon as possible, within two or three weeks.

While we wish to speak about the SPJST as a whole, our members should not overlook the opportunity to speak up for their own home lodges. The other day a member was expressing his disapproval with the negligible growth of his lodge. Yet there is no other way to stimulate the growth than to believe in growth, think about growth, and believe that the strength can be achieved. American people are fraternal people. It is within our power to develop that feeling of fraternalism and to make our lodges grow.—A. E. ) • 4. • ( Indigestion is the failure to adjust a square meal to a round stomach.

Another Reminder

Co-ordination and Co-operation

Stran g 20 the festive-like atmosphere against the clear blue sky. It will be a wonderful scene to remember.

I could keep on describing everything in detail, but there is one aspect of the over-all atmosphere which deserves to be mentioned and stressed. From the first steps to the hall, and throughout the time we stayed there, until the moment ui our departure, I felt that the whole program was in capable hands of the younger members. Young boys and girls were at the admission table, young girls and ladies served the delicious food, and youth including the small children was in full charge of the pro gram.

A.; your associate editor, I have repeatedly talked about giving the younger members a chance, admitting them as full-fledged members, and recognizing their abilities. What I witnessed at Lodge Tunis up; eared to me as if someone more influential, someone far more capable, had taken a hand in the organization of the young members of No. 25, and demonstrated to me that it actually can be done. What I saw there makes me feel proud of and hopeful for all young members. I realized that the young group of Lodge Ennis must have been taking an active part for a number of years.

In watching the complete activity, I Larne to the conclusion that what I was tunate to observe was in reality the solution of how to make our SPJST grow and prosper. There, in Lodge No. 25, I could see that the boys and girls were accepted as equal members, as grownups, as capable and free to do what they wanted to do. For instance, after the movie of all members was taken, someone atigaested to have another filming of the oanger set. It might have been a c am cidence that the older members will appear on the film either as standing still or slightly moving as they were leaving the building. Symbolically, the young people gathered for the filming on the outside, and they actually rushed to get in, to take their part, to take over when the older workers and tired members step aside.

Or . another instance, when Brother Vrla was asked to open the program, he graciously relinquished his position, "This is your program, and your day for mothers, and you do It with a better feeling than I can. Go right ahead." a hods a chairman gave the younger memTa a free hand.

That is what is called co-ordination: on arrangement where the less experienced is accepted as of equal rank to bring harmonious results. By such coordination there is no feeling of difference of age, the youth is being accepted

VESTNIE—.WEST.TEMAS

on equal footing, so that a unity of purpose and action might be attained. Coordination is where the old members take the back seat and let the young ones of quick responses and faster action do the steering.

An equally important part is the quality of co-operation, and there was plenty evidence that the older members of Lodge Ennis understood their part.

Older members were assisting wherever assistance was needed: in parking the cars, in preparing the dishes in the kitchen, in serving the refreshments.

The whole time spent at Lodge Ennis was for me Fraternalism in review.

Everything was well planned, with old members helping the youth to carry out the program for the enjoyment of all.

It was a Sunday well spent.

And seeing such a splendid co--ordination and co-operation, let me give you my words of congratulations. Human nature being what it is, you need a word of recognition of your work, so that you would not feel discouraged but to be inspired to take another and another step along the road.

It is my sincere hope that the colored film will be successful, so that in turn I may be able to give you, to repay you, some of the joy which I experienced being with you. The picture will be ready in about a month. Until then, more success to you, young members of Lodge Ennis.—A. E. )

And Still More Co-operation Referring to the above report of the Mother's Day program at Lodge Ennis No. 25, we have to acknowledge our sincere thanks to Mrs. Johnie Hrabina for giving us the details of the program, and furnishing us with the names of the participants.

The Master of Ceremonies was Brother George Strunc, president of the "Sbor Mladeze"—the Juvenile Club. It was this young man whom Brother Vrla, chairman of Lodge Ennis praised for the effective handling of the program. Good work, Brother Strunc, stay with it—the best of luck to your effort.

After Brother Strunc made his appropriate address, little Pauline Luksa followed with a "Poem to Mothers." It was well presented and we enjoyed her recitation.

Saxophone and accordian solo, "California, Here I Come," given by Adolph and Elaine Miller, called for one more selection, "Forever and Ever." Both num-

ye stkedu, dne 18. kvetna 1949. bers showed a surprising ability and talent of these two young members.

This was followed by a pleasing melody of the song "A Night in May," rendered by charming young lady, Sister Elsie Pekar. And right after it came a sweet, harmonious duet by Mrs. Frank Strunc and Johnie Mensik, entitled in Czech "Hvezdy nad Vltavou"—Stars of Moldau.

The final number was a pleasing duet given by Mrs. Albin Nesuda and Mrs. Johnie Hrabina with an intriguing title "Podskalak," meaning "a man from Podskali (a suburb of Praha.)

It was an exceptionally well-presented program from the start to the finish. All four of us from Houston had enjoyed it.

Lodge Ennis really has talented members, and the "Sbor Mladeze" deserves full support and appreciation.

Many thanks, Sister Hrabina, for the names and other details.—A. E. ) • 4„ • (,

Success

This could be easily termed another Horatio Alger story.

From a small harness and saddle shop to one of the largest hardware stores in Central Texas is the story of Brother Frank Kind, member of Lodge Praha No. 29, at Taylor, Texas.

While in Taylor to witness the Golden Jubilee of Lodge Praha, A. E. had the opportunity to learn about the remarkable success of Brother Kind. Modest, unpretentious, of light weight, about sixty, Brother Kind does not strike one as a business giant. Yet he celebrated his service of 25 years by opening a new and beautiful store.

Brother Kind. came to Texas, settled in Taylor and served the people of Williamson County by following his trade and opening his own business, after working years for others, under the name of the Taylor Harness and Saddle Shop. In those days, horses and buggies were a part of every family. Gradually a small hardware line was added to the leather business.

In 1935, he changed the name of the firm to Frank Kind Hardware, and broadened his staff of employees •y using his four growing sons after the ...atv*arseftsgagsmatat

Air conditioning service and plumbing facilities were gradually added until the war broke out and the boys joined the Navy.

With the end of the war and the return of the boys, the business was reorganized, forming a four-way partnership: father and the three sons.

On Saturday morning, April 23, twentyfive years to a day after the original Taylor Harness and Saddle Shop was opened, Brother Frank Kincl and his three sons, held an open event which attracted thousands of visitors and customers. This opening event showed to the public one of the finest, most complete places to shop for everything in the hardware, appliances, sporting goods, houseware, and giftware lines.

One look at the new beautiful store and the amount and surprisingly large variety of merchandise brought a question from A, E. as to how many people needed to operate such a large business.

"Not counting four of us, we have twenty-two employees." A quick mental calculation followed, and another question about the payroll. "The weekly payroll comes to $16,060," replied Brother Kind.

That gives cur readers some idea. A business paying its employees $16,000 every week, or $65.000 every month, is quite a jump from a small saddle shop, served by one craftsman, whose only capital was honest work and conscientious service.

Our congratulations to Brother Kincl, his boys, and the Kind. Hardware Comany.--A. E. 9 (

It sounds incredible that there would be a Confederate soldier still living who fought in the war between the States some eighty-five years ago. There still is the last one.

He is Gen. William Jordan Bush, a my old soldier of nearly 104, who lives n a little Confederate-gray house in Fitzgerald, Ga. He is regarded with appropriate. awe throughout the South, as the last Confederate who wore the gray during the war between the States, the only living person wearing his Confederate medal on this Memorial Day. General Bush was a teen-aged private when he fought in the Civil . War, but he has been an honorary general for years.

He enjoys his distinction to the full. Any

battle which may be mentioned, he remembers in detail, with a sly twinkle that tips the listener off to the fact that while he might not have actually been in the battle, it's up to him as the last Confederate to do the honors for all the boys in gray that were there.

The town of Fitzgerald, Ga., is a wonderful place for the last Confederate to live in, It was settled, they say, by "some real nice Yankees" shortly after his war.

The hotel is called the Lee-Grant, and the original streets were named half for Confederate and half for Federal generals. A month or so ago, the town council voted to name a street also for General Bush.

Called Uncle Josh by half the town and Daddy Bush by the other half, the General is Fitzgerald's most famous and most carefully-taken-care-of citizen. The United Daughters of the Confederacy (the U. D. C.) offers him everything he could possibly want to make him comfortable. The Georgia State patrol drives him home when he is out late. The messenger not only brings him his pension check but also the $75 to cash it with.

He is always being asked for pictures and autographs; and he gets plenty of mail. He's senior deacon of his Baptist church, and received his "diploma" as a Mason in 1888. He goes to the Masonic meetings, too. "He stays out until 2 a. m.," says his wife fondly, "and tells me he's been to lodge meeting—and expects me to believe it!"

For a man who will be 104 in two months, on the 10th of July, General Bush is astonishingly vigorous. He can read his Bible without his glasses, he can hear well with no artificial aid, his blood-pressure is perfect and his heart is 0. K. He likes apple pie better than anything else to eat. He has a favorite old rocking chair with a calico cushion in the back, but he doesn't stay in it much.

Until a few years ago, he walked downtown every morning to talk over old times with his friends. Now, he has to call a taxi, when his wife's back is turned. Sometimes, when Mrs. Bush, who teaches the sixth grade, misses him, she finds out he has dressed up by himself and "gone out with the girls"—to a U. D. C. meeting. Mrs. Bush has celebrated her twenty-seventh wedding anniversary with the Gen., whom she married when he was 76 and she was 34. He lived with his first wife 48 years before she died, and had 6 children, 2 of whom are still living. He has 11 grandchildren and more great-grandchildren than he can count.

He still handles his own money, giving his wife what she needs for the bills.

As proof of his amazing vitality, he

Strata 21

points out that his snow-white hair is turning black again—and if you look closely you can indeed see fresh black hairs in it and in his warrior mustache.

He has one fierce blue eye, that glares when he talks about the Yankees and is full of Irish fun when he talks about the girls.

When the Bushes went to see the movie of Gone With the Wind, the general declared that the Battle of Atlanta in the picture was "just like it really happened." When he went to the cyclorama he pointed out in the painting the very tree he was behind, "shootin' like hell" while the battle raged. Ms. Bush says he almost got violent at the sight of his old enemies, and she had to restrain him from a new charge. "When he saw Sherman on that horse he said, 'Let me at him,' she reports.

Uncle Josh was, a bare 16 when he joined the Gray army. "I told a lie to get into it, and I'd have told another to get out," he says, and then immediately retracts, "No, I wouldn't, either. I fought to the end and I wouldn't have done any other way." He was "near about" the whole time with General Gordon, but part of the time with General Johnson.

When asked if the young army did much training before it went into battle, General Bush retors, "We didn't waste no ammunition practicin.' When we shot, we shot to kill. In them days we didn't have airplanes—it was hand-to-hand fightin."

He brought home a big Confederate flag from the last Gettysburg reunion and he carries it in all the Memorial Day parades.

Until a few years ago there was also one Union veteran left in Fitzgerald, Henry Brunner. On Memorial Day the two old soldiers would go to the cemetery together and put flowers on the graves of their fallen comrades, General Bush decorating the northern graves and General Brunner the southern. When his friendly enemy died, General Bush sent a wreath "from the last of the gray to the last of the blue."

Now General Bush has to place, tremulously, the flowers and laurel wreaths doubt, when emotional southern ladies for both of them. There will be tears, no see his lone indomitable figure carborne in the parade this year, the last Confederate, wearing his Gettysburg medal and carrying his Confederate flag.

But the small, bent general will not be mournful. He will be gay and gallant, lifting his soft black Confederate-style hat, bowing to the girls as a southern gentleman of spirit does. He will wave his valiant flag as though it were undefeated, while the band plays Dixie this

Strana 22 one more time for him, on Memorial Day. The other men in gray are all gone.

Now, at the cemetery, when the bugle softly plays Taps, it is for all the Confederates—except the last one, General William Jordan Bush.

There is no other man left alive today who fought in the Civil War of 18611865.

It is a lonely distinction. ) • 4• • (

Patronage in Our Political Systems President Truman created considerable hue and clamor when he hinted broadly the other day that the time honored congressional privilege of naming people to fill Government jobs would go only to good Democrats and one way of telling a good congressional Democrat was by how he voted, as for instance, on the bill to repeal the Taft-Hartley Act, now before the House. Editorial writers all over the country ipounced upon the incident, commentators comment, pundits pontificated, politicians shook their heads, for the President, in his ingenuous way, had brought out into the open a subject which politicians believe is better left in decent obscurity.

Patronage is not a popular American institution. In most minds it conjures up sordid images of deals, incompetence, spoils, and boondoggling. It is not a popular institution, but it happens to be an institution which is part and parcel, and a key part and parcel, of the way our American democracy works. And since the President has revealed it in its nakedness, it might be worth analyzing its importance in our political picture.

The Federal Government employs in the neighborhood of 2,000,000 people; 92 percent of them are covered by civil service. The remaining 150,000 are excepted from the civil service requirements. Of course, a number of the civil-service jobs like postmasterships are subject to political control, but a number of the non-civil-service jobs are of a technical nature where politics doesn't enter in, so we can take a hundred and fifty thousand as a rough estimate of the number of jobs an administration controls. Only a few of these jobs are what you would call plums, that is, paying above $5,000 a year, or involving a good deal of power and influence. Nevertheless, the power of filling those hundred and fifty thousand jobs is a very considerable one. The way that power is exercised is what we call the patronage system.

And the patronage system is the life-

Vt S TN/

WEST, TEXAS

blood of our political organization, American politics is an intricate, delicate, vastly complex mechanism involving thousands of people. Willard Kiplinger, of the Kiplinger News Letter, has estimated that there are in this country a million professionals who make a business of politics. They range from the doorbell ringers on the precinct level up through Members of Congress to the President himself. The whole thing represents rival networks of party workers which theoretically should reach every citizen of the United States. Now, these people have a regrettable tendency to want to get something out of it—jobs, influence, power, prestige. There are some workers in the vineyard of politics who may do it for sheer love of the game.

There are some who do it from an idealistic desire to get a better government, but it is one of the things that is wrong with American politics that there are so few of these. Most politicians are in politics for its rewards, tangible or intangible. Therefore it follows that a healthy American political organization, under the present scheme of things, must have some rewards or the promise of some rewards to hand out to its workers.

Otherwise it rots and withers away. And that is why as long as American politics is organized the way it is you will never get rid of patronage or the spoils system, or whatever you want to call it.

But we digress. These 150,000 jobs, more or less, to which political appointments may be made are used to nourish the organization of the political party in power—in the present case the Democratic Party. They are passed around where they will do the party the most good. It is customary for party leaders, like Congressmen and men who would like to be Congressmen, to have considerable say about who gets what jobs in his area. This allows him to get his men in important places, to be sure of their loyalty, and to build up a hardworking political machine to further his and the party's political progress. This is important to a Congressman who wants to get reelected. And this is what caused the loud screams from those Congressmen who thought the shoe fit when President Truman suggested that Congressmen who didn't go along with him weren't going to get any patronage.

Vulgar as it may seem, the distribution of Federal jobs has played a decisive role in some of the greatest events in American history. President Truman's political sin was not that he planned to use it, but that he came right out and talked about it. The thirteenth amendment—which abolished slavery—was only ratified because of the most flagrant use

Ve stfedu, dne 18. kVetna 1949. of patronage by Abraham Lincoln. In 1864 Lincoln decided that there had to be an amendment abolishing slavery or else the whole issue of the Civil War would be in doubt. To do this, he found it necessary to bring Nevada into the Union, but he lacked three votes in the House to get Nevada in. So Lincoln called in Assistant Secretary of War Dana and said, "Get the votes of so and so, and so and so, and so and so." Dana said, "What do they want?" Lincoln said, "I don't know. It makes no difference. We must carry this vote or be compelled to raise another million men. It's a question of three votes or new armies. Whatever promises you make," said Lincoln, "I will perform." Well, as it turned out, two of the men wanted internal revenue jobs, and the third wanted a job in a New Orleans customs house. The jobs were promised. The following October, Nevada became a State and promptly ratified the thirteenth amendment. Thus, through the judicious use of patronage, Abraham Lincoln abolished slavery.

There's a twist to the story, though.

After Lincoln was killed and Andrew Johnson succeeded him, Johnson refused to deliver on the appointments. "I have observed," said Johnson loftily, "that such bargains tend to immorality." Whatever they tended to, Johnson's reneging on the bargain helped open such a breach between Congress and himself that he was very nearly impeached. The importance of patronage to Congress was underlined in a famous incident of the last century when the two New York Senators, Roscoe Conkling and William Platt, resigned their seats because President Garfield refused to appoint their man as collector of customs in New York.

President Cleveland used patronage to force the repeal of the Silver Purchase Act. And it was only by the use of this same weapon that Woodrow Wilson was able to get the Senate to confirm Judge Brandeis' nomination to the Supreme Court.

The fact is that patronage is just about the most persuasive argument that a President has with Congress. It is immensely important now because that real political problem in Washington today is the relations between the President and the Congress.

Although the President and Congress are kept poles apart by the Constitution, there are two main avenues by which he can, influence the Legislature. One is public opinion and the other is patronage. The President is using both, and he will continue to. He has to. It's the way our system works. That is why one of the half dozen most important men in Washington today is a man you never hear

Ve stfeduf dne . 18. kvetna 11949, about–He is not in. Congress. He is not in the Cabinet. He holds no public office. His name is William Boyle and he is the Democratic National Committee's chief patronage dispenser. He is the man who decides who will get what, who makes the fine distinction between rival factions, who sees that the proper wheels of the Democratic machine get greased.

That's how this whole patronage thing came up. On Wednesday, April 27, Boyle, McGrath, and other Democratic sachems had a session with the President to get the patronage system streamlined. The next day at his news conference President Truman was asked about it, and it was then that he outlined his now famous loyalty test for Democrats getting patronage. Of course it is based on loyalty. It always has been. That's what patronage means.

Jim Farley, who dispensed the jobs in Roosevelt's administration made no bones about it. He said he had a twofold duty, namely to place in office loyal Democrats who at the same time will have the ability to serve in their positions to the credit of their party and their country.

So it is now—so it has always been. And patronage to loyal followers is not just a Democratic monopoly. The Republicans do the same thing—or would if they ever got a chance. Last year at this time when the sweet scent of victory hung heavy in Republican nostrils, the GOPcontrolled Senate held up thousands of Presidential nominations-11,000, to be exact—because they wanted to put Republicans in those jobs instead of the Democrats President Truman nominated.

Patronage is not, perhaps, a very pretty part of our political life, but it is an essential one, as we are now organized All the fuss and pother over President Truman's frank admission that jobs will go to those who go down the line with the party, will not change the system one iota. It's like the lady who told the philosopher that she had decided to accept the universe. "By heaven, madam," he said, "you'd better." The patronage system is part of our political universe and no amount of high-minded statements, polite distaste, or viewing with alarm is going to change it. There is just one way to get rid of patronage in politics, and that is for enough people to care enough about politics to be willing to work as hard without thought of reward, as the million professional politicians work today with the carrot of jobs, power, and influence dangling before their noses.

S ate of All the Good Most of us rightfully consider the United States as the land of opportunity thinking and believing that people from other lands would gladly accept even only a part of what we are blessed with.

Since we think that the whole world yearns to live the way we are living, live in the American way, it is surprising to find someone who has different ideas.

An Englishman came to the United States, found a brand-new house waiting for him and his family of four, tried America for three months, and didn't like it. He and his family of four went back to England. Maybe he wasn't much different from many other immigrants of the past who had a hard time to -adjust themselves to the new and strange conditions.

This is a pretty good account of the difference in the taste of individuals. We oftentimes fail to make alloWance for such differences. It presents the viewpoint of a man accustomed to a slower, typically English, tempo. He was used to a different pattern of life, and he got homesick. Anyway, he went back.

But let's start from the beginning, During the war, an English girl had married an American soldier, who now has a florishing meat market in Long Beach, California. When the English war-bride persuaded her family to come to California, she and her American husband built another house alongside their own home for the newcomers. It was ready for them when they arrived, after crossing the Atlantic in the "Queen Elizabeth" as tourist passengers for $165 apiece and the transcontinental rail trip for $72 each ticket.

So the Cooper family—that was the name of the English relatives—was lucky to have everything ready for them. And Mr. Cooper was lucky to get a job paying him $1.50 an hour. His son Bill, aged 23, went to work for $1.75. Thus the family didn't have such a bad go. They lived in a new house and they made far more money, three times more than in England, paid less taxes, and ate better food than ever before.

But they didn't like it. After three months they packed up and went back to England. Any American who has seen both countries finds this nearly impossible to explain. The Cooper family doesn't.

In the first place, says Cooper, Americans work too hard. They make a lot of overtime but they don't have any leisure.

It makes them old men before they know it.

"Every California workman thinks he

StraTta has to have a big automobile," he ,said, but all a British docker wants is home and food for his family and plenty of leisure."

"Working people are much better off in England because the social-security plan insures them against want and gives them free care when they are sick."

Young Bill Cooper thinks Britain's nationalized medicine is a great forward step in socialism. He said the workman isn't concerned that the scheme so far is being largely supported by `publie funds.

The goals of labor in Britain obviously' are not identical with the wants' of American labor, although culturally and historically the two classes are about as close as any.

Cooper is not a lazy man, but he is • an Englishman.

For his part Cooper thinks Americans are incredibly backward in such mat ters as socialized medicine and cradleto-grave security. He points out that London dockers get paid something even when they get no call to work.

But the key to Cooper's personal Preference for London over Los Angeles lies, we suspect somewhat deeper than his Socialist leanings. The highly touted California sunshine bothered him; he sighed for the very climate Americans, regard as the world's worst. No did he care for San Pedro's garish saloons; he was homesick for his old pub, the An g -lers.

"I'm not really a drinking coati;"" h6the explained, but you don't feel in an American bar.

"Down at the Anglers Bill Go e will let you make a night of it with one glaSS of stout. But in a place in San Pedro the bartender clanged a big bell if' a felloW didn't finish off his drink straight away.

I've never been so embarrassed' in' my life."

Men cannot be made all in the same' pattern; it would be a dull world if they were. Call it provincialism if you Will, the attachment to familiar wayS and places is an important part of human' happiness, and if Mr. Cooper is hOppier in England, why, we wish him well'. )• •(

On Writing Letters To Congressmen

zen must also make himself heard, especially on issues which develop after an election and were not debated in it.

At a time when so many powerful groups are organized to put pressure on Congress to serve their own ends, it is all the more important that your representatives be kept informed on the thinking of those who have no personal axes to grind but desire only what they believe best for the general welfare.

Of course, it is necessary to realize that there are some things that any public official, even the Congressman, likes, and some things that he dislikes. Let us get this straight: 1. He likes to hear opinions from home and wants to be kept informed of conditions in the district. Base your letter on your own pertinent experiences and observations.

2. If writing about a specific bill, describe it by number or its popular name.

Your Congressman has thousands of bills before him in the course of a year and cannot always take time to figure out to which one you are referring.

3. He likes intelligent, well-thoughtout letters which present a definite position, even if he does not agree with it.

4. Even more important and valuable to him is a concise statement of the reasons for your position — particularly if you are writing about a field in which you have specialized knowledge. He has to vote on many matters with which he has had little or no first-hand experience. Some of the most valuable help he gets in making up his own mind comes from facts presented in letters from persons who really know what they are talking about.

5. Short letters are almost always best.

Members of Congress receive many, many letters each day, and a long one may not get as prompt a reading as brief statement.

6. Letters should be timed to arrive while the issue is alive. If your Congressman is a committee member, he will a p -preciathvngyouriewshltebi is before him for study and action.

7. A Congressman likes to know when he has done something of which you approve. He is quite as human as you.

A letter to Rudolf Valentino, beloved idol of flappers, was posted on the letterrack of the studio in which he worked.

A colleague opened it by mistake, saw that it contained a note from Valentino's tailor, urging payment of money long overdue, closed it again carefully and replaced it on the rack! A few minutes later Valentino arrived. He opened the letter with carefully studied poise, and started to read it while a beatific smile spread over his face. Then, folding the letter and putting it away, he slowly wagged his head and spoke: "Silly, silly, little girl!" ) • 4 • ( IS IT IMPROPER TO WASH A UNITED STATES FLAG?

Many people seem to have a notion that there is some provision of law or flag etiquette that forbids the washing of the United States flag. Such is not the case. "There is no objection, so far as this Department has knowledge," wrote the United States War Department to the author, "to the cleaning of United States flags by washing this, this practice being generally resorted to by the United States Army."

V t TNi1C WEST, TEXAB HENS HAVE PACKAGING PROBLEM

• Farmers who are having trouble getting enough wooden or fiber cases in which to ship their eggs might very well take this as a reminder to supply their laying hens with crushed limestone and oystershell, the U. S. xtension Service suggests.

The advice applies everywhere, and there is a true parallel between the poultryman short of egg cases and the laying hen short of the lime needed to form strong eggshells. The farmers, the comment notes, can now "appreciate something of what their hens are up against when the hen can't get packaging material."

Scientists of the U. S. Department of Agriculture have found that a laying hen usually has about twice as much calcium in her blood as is found in the blood of roosters and immature pullets. If temporarily short of lime materials she will draw on her bones to package her eggs with a shell. Approved poultry diet take into account the hen's need for lime and allow more than twice as much calcium for • a laying mash as for a growing mash. ) • 4 • ELECTRIC-EYED HOEING MACHINE

A hoeing machine, designed for thinning and weeding operations in such crops as sugar beet and cotton, "inspects" the plants with an electric eye before it chops out weaklings and weeds, sparing the stronger, more promising specimens.

It is the invention of Leo A. Marihart of Monterey County, Calif., who has been granted U. S. patent 2,400,562 on the device.

Mechanical cotton-choppers have been invented, but they have the weakness of being entirely mechanical. They knock out predetermined spaces in the rows of young plants, and it is a matter of chance if they spare the right ones.

In Mr. Marihart's invention there is a revolving set of blades that block out whole segments of the line. Following after it, however, is another set of blades whose action is intermittent; they swing round and clip out finer bites of soil and roots only at the bidding of photocells that "look" at each plant through light filters and "decide" whether it is a weed or a desirable citizen of the crop community„---Science News Letter. ) • 4 • Probably no future President can boast that he was born in a log cabin, but he may truthfully say he was born in some in-law's attic or a converted garage.

Psychologica Credit Rating Many years ago when phonographs were a novelty, the late Sol Bloom, chair,. man of the Foreign Relation Committee in the House of Representatives until his recent death, started a mail order business, selling talking machines, as they were then called. He advertised that he would ship the machines on approval.

Being of a trustful nature, he assumed that everyone who answered his, advertisement would either pay for the machine after seeing it or else promptly return it. But a number of people did neither.

Bloom then hit on a psychological plan for telling in advance which individUals could be depended on to behave honestly.

To everyone who replied to his advertisement, he sent a letter stating: 4: We will ship you a phonograph immediately after receiving the name and addres,s of your family physician, as reference."

On receiving references, he shipped a phonograph without even bothering: to write to the customer's family physician.

His reasoning was: "Nearly everyone who incurs debts pays everyone else before he does the doctor. Any person, willing to mention his doctor for financial reference probably doesn't owe the, doctor any money. If he doesn't owe the doctor* the chances are that he doesn't owe anyone else. He is in the habit of paying,hiS bills."

This reasoning turned out to be correct.

Almost everyone who gave the name of a doctor proved to be honest. ) HOW TO MAKE POLICEMEN HAPPY

A young woman who had parked her car in forbidden territory returned about two hours later to espy from afar a large and patient policeman curled up in the front seat.

She stepped into a taxi, rode home and telephoned the police department that her car had been stolen.. An hour later the car was driven up to her door by the same traffic officer who had awaited her, now quite proud of his alertness. ) • 4 • ( FAULT-FINDERS PREFERRED

"When I take a man and his wife out to try to sell them a house," says a real estate man, "and they seem pleased over every detail of the place, the chances are ten to one that they will never buy it. But when a man begins to find fault with the things about the house, I take hope. He's perhaps getting ready to drive a bargain and doesn't want me to knew he really likes the place."

A shrine was d p ritcated at Frydek Sunday, May 1. It is a replica of the Grotto of Lourdes southern France. It was dedicated by Most Rev. Louis J. Reicher, bishop of Austin, who explained that it was erected "in thanksgiving for pmyers answered" when 67 young men women of St. Mary's Catholic Church left, to take part in World War II and returned without a single fatality. Taking part in the dedication, in addition to Bishop Reicher and Father Lad Klimicek, pastor of the church, were Rev. Arthur rann,•formerly of Annunciation Church ip Houston and now of I3ellville; John Baca, Knight of St. Gregory; Msgr. J. C. Kunc of East Bernard; Rev. A. Turisky, C. P. of Houston; Rev. Aloy,sius Nesvadba of 'Wallis, and Rev. Frank Matustik of Fayetteville. Some 3000 attended the dedication ceremony.

Frydek is a small community in Austin County near Sealy. It is a community of hard-working farm folk who are learning the ways of the new world while remembering the old. It is a quiet town— a town with quiet and simple ways.

If you know Frydek, you won't wonder at all, because it's known as the "most Czech" community in the nation—a little hit of Czechoslovakia transplanted Texas soil—a place where the customs of the old country blend with the tratlitions of the neW. The grotto at Frydek is an elaborate, costly-looking affair, contructed of reinforced concrete faced with honeycomb limestone rocks. It is valued at $10,000.

It cost $800 to build.

But it wasn't a contract job. If was prected in its entirety by St. Mary's parishioners, who hauled load after load of Trick 'from D. W. Wood's ranch near Georgetown, with Father Lad, enthusiastic as always, among the workers loading and unloading the stone.

Actually, Father Lad is Father Lad Kintl iek. and he is pastor of St. Mary's Catholic Church in Frydek as well as of parishes in Brookshire and Sealy. Formall y lie is Father Klimicek but most of parshioners in the three communities have forgotten he has any other name than Father Lad. The grotto was dedicated by Most Rev. Louis J. Reicher, bishop of Austin, who, in a dedication sermon, said: "I doubt very much whether there is another village in the entire world from which 67 young men and women went

forth to take part in the war without a single death and to which all came back I from the far-flung ramparts of the earth—to the place for which they so gallantly fought."

If Frydek becomes a mecca for pilgrims it will fufill a strangely prophetic naming. For Frydek is named for another Frydek, county seat of Moravia, in Czechoslovakia, to which thousands of the devout flock every year seeking inward peace and spiritual consolation.

Finally the insect stopped its futile attempts and, searching about, found a bit of straw, which it carefully placed across the gully. Then, balancing the wing on this straw bridge, the ant succeeded in shoving it across.

Pearl Brewery Enlarges 65% Now one of Nation's For__]mlst Breweries SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS—The San Antonio Brewing Association has formally announced the recent completion of many additions to the Pearl Brewery, which make it now one of the country's foremost breweries. The plant's brewing and aging ca p acity has been increased 65 per cent. The new warehouse has added 40,000 square feet of storage space to the brewery. The steadily increasing preference in Texas for Pearl beer has made this expansion necessary.

The plant is located on 8 1/2 acres of its own land in almost the exact center of the city of San Antonio.

Pearl Brewery has its own arte sian wells from which water is ob-. tained for the making of Pearl Beer. This water is famous for its I extraordinary purity and brewing ' qualities.

The new building is entirely insulated and air-refrigerated. It now contains 72 large storage and fermenting tanks for making a premium quality beer. Fabricated in San Antonio, the tanks have been glass lined by a special process.

When the Pearl Brewery was established in 1886, it employed 35 people. Twelve horse-drawn wagons were all that were needed to deliver its daily production.

Now there are 340 employes, and the brewery has its own elec-

tric locomotive and tracks and a. fleet of 72 trucks. Pearl Brewery einnY, byl pfec krasnou dobou, produces more than 2,000 barrels a day. The plant has been running zzarici kapkou v neobemezenern Karolina Svetla. at capacity, yet unable to supply the demand—thus the 65 per cent Nic noveho a velkeho v 2ivote Production Increase.

The beer is now ready. Soon, those who have been asking for a 'Bottle of Pearl,, please' will be able to get Pearl, every time."
