Bylo to mlhaveho dne v rote 1909, kdy ulicemi LondSrna bloudil cizinec — W. D. Boyce, chicagskV cestovatel a nakladatel.

Nahle se vynotil odkudsi z mlhy chlapec a tazal se jej, zda pottebuje pomoci. American shabu s povdekem ptijal a kdy stanul pied domem, kam se chtel dostati, a odmerioval ochotneho chlapce penizem, tento jej neptijal. Teprve pak vysvetlil, se je skautem, To obeana Boyce poealo zajimat, vyptaval se jej a nakonec se neehal zavest do jedne skautske klubovny, kde se seznamil se samSim zakladatelem — lordem Baden-Powellem. A tam vlastne byly polokny zaklady americkeho skautshell° hnuti. % PtiStiho roku' Mr. Boyce spolu s Edwardem S. Stewardem a Stanleyem Willisem zaloMli organisaci nazvanou Boy Scouts of America — co2 se stalo 8. fmora 1910.

Dne 22. fmora 1857 narodil se BadenPowell, kterSr opustil svoji vojenskou drahu proto, ponevaa chtel vychovavat mlade2 tak, aby thohla poskytnout platne slufty sve vlasti. NetuSil tehdy, jak velkou filohu bude zajimat v budoucnosti vSlchova mladek. Vide]. tehdy pottebu organisace, ja by mladd sjednocovala a vedla ke vzneSenStm calm. Podnecoval jej nesmirne zpnsob vSrchovy burske mladek.

General Baden-Powell ocitl se koncem minuleho stoleti v eele anglicke armady v Africe. Celemu skoro milionu anglickrch vojaku v naSkrobenSich uniformach vzdoroyal malt kmen Burt, dokonale obeznamenSrch s ptirodou, kterSr pilsobil •nglieanum naprosto zapad1Vm v cizi prosttedi, nemale ztraty.

Znamka mladi a staki Je to znama a jednoducha. zkouSka — spodiva v piesnosti ei prutnosti kute. Prutnost kfite neni sice pin g znaena, ale je velmi dokonala. To znamena, to kfiti nelze ye znadne mike natahnouti, anit bychom ji pti torn rortrhli, ale jakmile tak povoli, zase se kirk ihned vraci do sve pfivodni podoby polohy, v jake byla pfedtim. Pfesvedeujice se o prulnosti Mite, vyzdvihneme fasu kotni, jet se ihned vyrovnava, jakmile tah povolil. Pfi teto jednoduche zkou§ce lze vaak jit poznat, te prutnost lade neni u vkch lidi stejna a te jsou zde rozdily jednak osobite a jednak stalim i celko'Om stavem organismu podminene. Zpravidla, uchopime-li na pk. kuai na htbete ruky do dvou prstt a vyzdvihneme tak kasu kotni, nepodaki se nam kasu pozvednouti ptilis vysoko. Jsou site lido — jsou to vYjimky kteki mohou si pozvednouti easy kotni jak co do velikosti, tak i vfSky velmi znadne, tak to si mohou sou kani, z hofej gi easti trupu pozvednutou, prikrYti i east oblieeje; tento stay lade oznaduje se pojmem cutis laxa ("volna, lade"). Pustime-li vyzvednutou tasu koZni, vyrovnava se tato u mladYch lidi ihned, u starYch pozvolna. A na tomto Ukazu spoeiva ono zname hadani "jak kdo je mlad" t. j. na schopnosti vyrovnani se yyzvednute easy kotni. ZkouSka se provadi tak, ze kuai na hkbete ruky uchopime do prstii a kasu kotni vyzvedneme a rychlc pustime. Napne-li se pak kirk ihned po uvolneni lila se, te jednotlivec je jeate mladY, zdstane-li vaak rasa kotni jeate po uvolneni tuho, — path* jednotlivec mezi stare! Stejne jako s kasami kotnimi umele yyzdvihnutYmi je to i s kasami, jet vznikaji stahem svalfi (na pk. pki syraSteni 'dela). I tyto easy se vyrovnavaji u rnladYch ihned, jakmile stah svala pfestal a lade je zase na tech mistech hladIca a rovna jako pfedtim.

Dokazuje to vedouci lekat americkeho zdravotniho stavu na zaklade zdravotnick3ich statistik. Podle techto statistik jevi delka lidskeho Zivota od poeatku ;tnacteho stoleti as po dne gek velmi ptirustek.

Jubilejni rok Johanna Sebastiana Bacha. Rok 1950 je ve vztahu k Johannu Sebastianu Bachovi dvojnasobne jubilejnim. Uplyne 256 let od jeho narozeni a 200 I let od jeho smrti. Na jeho odkazu spodiva cela stavba moderni hudby a jak to byl

(Bach neni potok, nSTbrZ mote). Mote lasky, oddanosti, vrouci zboanosti a umeleeke poctivosti.

Drzi ptatele!

Dnes jest tomu rok co jsme piijeli do Kalifornie, a te2 bude koneit prvni mesic noveho roku. Jak ten eas rychle leti, jest to skoro jako sen. Doufam, ze bude druhY rok tak krasnY a zajimavy jako ten kterY jiz zakl do minulosti. Henry ye vSem do•bte proSel. Maji v jedne bide pet studenOA, v druhe jen tti, kteti jsou nejlepSi, a mezi temi jest iHenry. Tak mame oba radost. A ted' uz budu pokraeovati.

Po ptijemnem spanku jsme vstali a dali kabinu do potadku. Nejdfive jsthe jeli do easti lesa, kde roste velikan Sequoia. Zda,li jsme si drive mysleli, ze v Yosemite jsme videli ohromne sequoia stromy, zde teprye jsme se velice divili. Kura stromu jest tak tlusta a vydava, tekutinu zvanou tonnin, ktera, hodne chrani strom. Jako vSechny stromy sequoia i tyto zde maji tak krasnou Cervenou kftru, nekde az dva sttevice tlustou. Abyste i vy vedeli ja,ke ty velikany jsou, tedy napiSu trochu podrobneji jak tento nejvetSi strom v Sequoia parku jest vysokY. General Sherman strom jest 272 strevicti vysokY. U spodu jest 102 stop v objemu, 32 stop v prfriezu. Z tohoto stromu by se pry postavilo 40 petipokojovych domii, a vzalo by to 30 nalladnich vortl 2'eleznienich ptevezti strom.

General Sherman strom jest zvan jako nejvetSi ziva vec z celeho sveta. Jest to nadherny strom a tkko vetit, 2e milk byti tak obrovskY. Jest tam postavena lavice, tak jsme si usedli a koukali al do koruny stromu dalekohledem. Je to krasnY pocit pied sebou videti neco takoveho a tim vice se divit, co vSe ptiroda doka.M. Kdy'2 jsme si prohledli Generala; tak jsme peSky prhlednouti si i ty druhe, ktere jsou o mak) menSi. A to jsou Lincoln, President a McKinley stromy, ktere te2 jsou tak krasne. Ty jsou tti etvrte mile vzdalene. Pak jsme si prohledli sequoia, ktery byl jiz padly, aneb byl porakn bleskem.

Kdy2 lei zdaji se jeSte vetSi nezli ty druhe. Wady je zeme tak mekoueka a takoye bylo ptijemne ticho, neb jsme byli jedini dva lide co tak brzo se vydali na prohlidku. Mezi terni velikYmi stromy jsou jine, tez tak hezke, a to Cirri kontrast velice zvlaStni. Jest to vzruSujici krasa, ktera probouzi duSi kaaleho kdo tento raj. uvidi. KdV2 jsme se prochazeli videli jsme mnoho veverek a jelenti, kteti na nas nakukovali jsouc schovani za ketem aneb stromem. JeSte jsme se dosti dlouho prochazeli az jsme oba byli cell prostydli.

staurant bude uZ otevFen a. pojedem 3pet do stredu lesa na snidani. Lide se teprve zaeali schazet ku snidani a velice se divili, ze my jsme jiz videli Generala Shermana, k oni se nikam nevydaji, az po snidani. eekali jsme asi patnact minut, pak nam byla ptinesena velice chutna, snidane. Ani nevite jak v tech lesich, zvlaSte po prochtizce eloveku chutna. Pti snidani jsme si vypravovali s druhYmi lidmi, kteti se rozhodovali kam se nejdfive podivaji. Slyseli jsme, ze i zde maji krasnou jeskyni a zdali by bylo mono si ji prohlednouti. Bylo nam teeeno, ze po Delnickem dnu jig jest vk zavtene, ale tento rok k jest jeSte mnoho turistfr, tak 2'e se ti hlavni pani oil parkovni Utadovny jeSte poekaji jeden tyden. A my jsme meli radost. Sleena, ktera, nas obsluhovala, povidala ze on aji2' byla v Carlsbad jeskyni dvakrat a k tato Crystal jeskyne jest zrovna tak krasna, jen ze jest menai. Prohlidka jeskyne se mela konat v jednu, ye dye a ye tti hodiny. Jeliko2 jsme chteli co nejvice toho dne tedy jsme se rozhodli, ze pojedem do King's Canyon narodniho parku. A tk jsme se po snidani hned vydali. Jest jen asi tficet mil vzdalen od Sequoia. Kdy" jsme prileli asi tak na polovic cesty, videli jsme nadhernY most stavenY z bileho kamene. Tak se nam libil,ze jsme zaparkovali karu a slezli po kopci dolu. Ach zde y am to jest krasne! T'ako by se to dalo vypsati. Mame nejake obrazky na pomatku. Museli jsme si i prohlednouti, co jest za ohromnYmi balvany, a vSa.dy kam jen oko padlo jsme . videli neco jineho.

Jednou jsme stall na ohromnenvkamenu.

Zdalo se mi, ze jsem ji2 jednou takovY videla. Byl to solidni kus mramoru. Pod mostem tekla voda ledova a eista. -Wady kolem takove vysoke krasne stromy. Ptipadalo mi to jako sen, z ktereho se brzy probudim. Henry inel takovou lopatku, mti2e se z ni udelat sekyra a jeSte neco, tak kaIdou chvilku neco na gel. Neni vSak doyoleno neco z parku vziti, tak jsme to zase nechali na miste, kde jsme to haSli. Vzalo nam to hodinu tech tficet mil, neb jsme si museli stale neco ale piece jsme ptijeli na misto, kde jest druhY velikam. Tento se jmenuje General Grant a jest 267 stop vysokY, 107 stop v objemu a 40 stop v prtitezu. Bylo by mo'klo z neho postavit 35 petipokojovych Odhadovaho jest, ze jsou stromy mezi 3000 az 4000 let stare. Dale jsme videli reete jine velke stromy a ty jsou: Parker, California a Oregon. Ty druhe jsou tez velice zajimave. Stale se nam zdalo, ae se nenasytime pohledem.

Zde jest i tak zvany Redwood Mountain Grove, kde roste tti tisice sequoia stromu majicich pies deset stop v priltezu. Pak jest zde strom, kterY by skoro frpine peetiznut pied ninoha lety a nepadl. Pomalu

strata e ale jiste se stale hoji. Pak jest tam tak sv.

Centennial Stump. V roku 1875 strom byl rcizatipen na menai kusy a poslan do Philadelphie na vystavu. Dries zbylo z neho jen kus patezu, kterS7 jest Cerny od ohne. Jest to silny i smutO koatrast proti stromu General Grant. A jest videt jak lidska ruka dokaZe nieit, kdyZ ji neni zabraneno.

I jest misti kde cela spoust stromu byla skacena neZli bylo za.braneno vice je niCit. Jsou i jina mista, ktera bysme si radi prohledli, ale nemeli jsme tolik Casu, neb nekde se musi jiti peaky -nekolik mil. I tak jsme se dosti proali. Jsou feky hodne soko ye skalach a krasne lesy. A tak rada posloucham jak se voda hrne ze skal, i kdyZ malt' potteek vesele bublajic uhani do clan, kde se spoji s fekou. Kam to ieka Zene mile a mile? To vime kaZdV, ale piece by to bylo hezke, kdybychom si mohli dovolit,podle toho potfteka, jiti, aZ bychom ptiali tam, kde se spojuje. Od malieka jsem mivala vodu rada. Jen napiti se, to ne.

KdyZ jsme videli, ze jiZ musime pomStMet na navrat, je'Ste jednou jsme se oba ohledli a pocitili vdeenost. Mame to krasnou zemi a mame si ji vaZiti.

Mill bratti a sestry!

Ve Vestniku ze dne 8. faora, sestra Anna Trampota 2ada, o zapiljeeni romanu "Mezihoti" od Vlasty Javoticke. Jeko jej mam, s radosti ji ho zapujeim, nedostalali ho nahodou od nekoho jineho. Jsou to etyti knihy, tak se dost nadte. Tedy jen napigte pogtovni listek, mam-li Vam je zaslati. Moje adresa je: Anna Tapal, Fayetteville, Texas.

Take si musim trochu omoeit o tech Vestnicich pro vdovy. Vim, 2e bYvala ttida "A" si musila na Vestnik platiti s fadoqmi poplatky. Dokud byl mfij man2e1 2iy , jsem se o takove veci nikdy nestarala, jen kdy2 jsem dostala yeas Vestnik, byla jsem spokojena. Mo2na, ze i pled jeho smrti jsem ho dostavala na moje jrneno, proto2e pattim do tfidy C na dvacetiletou dokvotni a ti u2 tehdy byli oprayneni na Vestnik bezplatne. Ja pattila i do stare ttidy A hned jak jsem byla 18 let stara, ale tit pled lety jsem vzala na ten certifikat "paid-up" a ponechala si jen ticidu C. Tehdy mi man2e1 radii, abych si radeji ditela jen dvacetiletou pojistku, ze nemusim platiti jak budu stara a, 2e by mi motna bylo obti2ne tu pojistku dr2eti. On jako by citil, ze ho ptekju, v2dy poeital jen mne. Jako na ptiklad, kdy2 jsem dceti Vlaste Gaither po jejirn provdani chystala vge mo2ne od mleka i slepic, aby nemuseli tolik v Houstone utratiti za tivobyti. Tu kdy2 moje shaneni pti ka2de jejich navgteve videl, mi povidal: "Jen aby ti to nekdy oplatili, jestli bude poti'ebovat." I v tom nezapoeitaval sebe.

Kdy2 zemtel, dostavala jsem Vestnik dale, at pied etyihni roky, kdy2 jsem mela vyplacenou moji dvacetiletou pojistku, byl mi zastaven. Tu jsem se se 2adnYm neradila a nechala si posilat Vestnik meho zete, neb on mel tehdy je gte na ttidu C platiti 12 rokn. Mtirj syn ut ma 15 letou vyplacenou dva roky a dcera letos platila posledne, rok do pi'edu, na dvacetiletou, tak to nesalo za to zaeinati s jejim jmenem. A2 muj zet' bude miti svoji pojistku vyplacenou, asi si nacham posilati Vestnik nektereho meho vnuka. To bude za osm rokii.

Rada bych v gak vedela, je-li i ostatnim ktefi vyplatili svoje pojistky, yestnik zastaven. Mokaa, 2e jsem pfehledla, bylo-h o tom nekde pojednani. Mo2na i jich jegte neni mnoho co maji dvacetiletou doplacenou, proto2e ja tu pojistku vzala hned jak byla zavedena. Tehdy jsem mela 29 let, tak jsem nemusela je gte mnoho platiti. Jak to bude s Vestnikem, jestli bude doplativgim elenUm zastaven a v bide B budou pomalu ubYvati fimrtinn, bude i ubYvati eisel Vestniku?

Na prvem miste gratuluji ku sriatku nadim milim ochotnikam Elidce a Joe JaniekovYm. Jsou to dobii miadi lidieky a ,jsem na ne trodieku hrda, protole se jejich srdieka poznala u nas v .sokolovne pri zkougkach na divadlo. Joe je velice dobrY hoch, ktereho ji g deldi dobu znam, i jeho sestrieku, ktera byla ucetni v Sokole a tee u radu Jaro. Jsou z dobre, uprimne Ceske rodiny z Ennis, ktere rodiee v duchu eeskem vychovali. Piece jenom na tech venkovech je vice- te lo,sky k to naafi eedtine nee ve meste. Elidku znam od divadla "Chaloupky pod horami", kde s nami aeinkovala a vim, Ze je to mile, hodne dite, take z dobre Ceske rodiny. Vklycky si rikam, pro to jsou ty Ceske sine staveny, aby se tam schazela eeska mlada a sriatky se rozmnoZovala. Doufam, Ze nam zastanou nadale verni v. to naafi o. dyt' ta prate eloveka chotnicke praci. V Z tedi, vidi-li, 2e nevyzni na prazdno a Ze se o ni verejnost zajima, neb pri kaZdem divadle je sal . piny. VZdyt' Ceske divadlo je g kolou — zvlate kdyZ zde v Texasu Ceske dkoly nejsou; proto je ma nahraditi dobre Ceske divadlo. Ve • e, ze je velice take vybrati peknou hru a pH torn co ma nag e Ceske obecenstvo rado. To vde zalai na raiserovi, ktery musi predem prostudovat hru, zda-li odpovida vYznamu dne aneb obecenstvu, podle toho, jak u2 je divadelne vychovano. BYti raiserem Ceskeho divadla, je bYti eeskYm naitelem, neb kadY raiser musi pochopit ideu spisovatelu a podle ni vde upraviti. Proto oceriujeme snahu zde v Dallasu br. L. Toberneho a jeho personalu, kterou oni venuji Ceskemu divadlu. Dokud budou eeska divadla v Americe a zapinend hledidte, tak lehko na CeskY Zivot nezanikne.

Nyni hraji po osadach houston gti sokoldti ochotnici "Vesnieku pod 8umavott".

Prosim pratele, zaplrite take kadou mistnost, kde se hraje, neb je todej opravdu krasnY a uprimnY, uklidni to vase du ge a zapomenete, Ze Zijete v tak politicky rozharane dobe.

Co asi ji za tu chvili, kterou s nim ztravila, napovidal? Jak asi potrisnil Padoka, takle Mabel zmenila svou lasku k otci v nendvist a naraz zapomnela na y Sechnu svou minulost. Ne, Holmes neni gentleman, jeho srdce je Spatne, a elm dale od neho, tim lope. Bude rad, az bude jednani o pilu odbyto a aZ Frank bude &nat. Stale se obaval, ze nejak zkrizi jeho plany a vnese otravu i do jeho rodiny.

ZaSel do pily a setrval tam, dokud Mabel neodjela. Potom teprve ho tiha. opouStela, a vyhledav Dumata, zaeal s nim jednat o priStich planech. NeskrYval raciest, ze bude nyni o jednoho papa mane a 2e se stanou neobmezenYmi pany, kteri budou moci volne upraviti vSe, jak toho zdar podniku bude vy'Zadoyati.

"Nu, vidiS. Smrt jednoho eloveka nesla na druhe strane dobro," chvalil si farmar. "Padokovi neni Mite.

"Take se mi zda, ze to byl kdovi znamY. Padok podle vSelao sal za ureitYrn iimyslem; snad chtel semi kohosi ztrestati, ale narazil na pripravenY odpor, kterY zavinil jeho smrt."

Bylo na nem znati,ze zapuzuje starosti ptedstavami noveho 2ivota a ze je netrpeliv, aby zmizela doba nejistoty. Du mat pachodil s nim a snaM1 se h6 poteg iti, a kd31 odji2del, chvili se za nim dival.

Padok ho prohral, a skoro je to pro neho tak lope. Kde je Frank?"

"Kamsi odejel. Je take jaksi zaraIen. Snad ho to dojalo."

"Snirt Padokova? Pochybuji. Leze na neho starost, 2e bude brzy pa jeho svobode."

"Jen aby se netrapil, ze si mne musi vziti," prohodila vaAne. "Frank se nedovede trapiti; je nekdy podivin, ale on zmoudti jako htibe, kdy2 se mu daji tdobra udidla. Vyhladovel jsem, devee, dej mi nee° jisti."

Pojedl eekaje na navrat Frankav, ktery ptijel az k vederu. Byl zdanlive klidnY, ale Ternerovi neu glo, ze se mu jaksi nemilie do oei podivat.

"Kde ses toulal?" tazal se ho s ptatelskou vYtkou.

"Jezdil jsem po ohradach a potom jsem se setkal s Lindleyem. Povidal, ze se vyskytlo letos mnoho ligek a pobizel mne na lov. Az bude po -dem, jednou si na ne vyjedu," "Prod ne. Neni vyloueeno, ze pojedu s tebou. Jen co mrazy upevni baMny, abychom mohli dobte za stopou. 6ekam, ze nejdele do tYdne napadne snih a potorn bude v ohradach klid. Nezapomnel jsi objednat vino a nejake kvetiny?"

"Vgechno je opatreno. Ale 'Zizeia mam, musim se napiti."

Vygel ze svetnice, a farmar, vzpornenuv si na nejake maliekosti, gel take opatriti, co za nutne povaloval.

XIII. Smrt Padokova byla predehrou novych vzru gujicich pkihod, ktere jako by chtely zkouget celou dugevni silu farmarovu. Kdy2 den nato dojel na pilu, jegte se ani nerozhledl a u g objevili se inspektor a ser2ant statni policie. Jemu, staremu kozakovi, neu glo, ze neprichazeji bez vaIne pridiny a napadlo ho, asi piece nekterY z delniku, na pile zamestnanY, bude do veci zapleten.

"DobrY den, inspektore," vital ho bod g e. "DobrY den, ser Z . ante. Nee° noveho?"

"Nemnoho," odpovidal inspektor, kterY se s Ternerem dlouha leta znal. "Ten vĂĄg krajan, Dumat se, tu girn, jmenuje, je pritomen?"

"Zajiste, kde by byl? Neco s nim je?"

"Rad bych ho poznal a na leccos se zeptal."

"Prig lo neco za nim s druhe strany?"

"Ach ne, mam rtrzne otazky, ktere mi zodpovi. Je na pile?"

"Asi, ale zavolam ho sem. Nerad bych vide', aby si delnici myslili, ze jste k vuli nemu pri gli. Jsou mezi nimi rtizni lide, na ktere je dluano si dati pozor."

"Pirj deme clovnitr, ze?" navrhoval Terner minioclek znepokojen.

"Treba. Ede bydlite?" obratil se na Vladimira.

"Zde mam svetnici," ukazoval prstem a popo gel tim smerem.

"Nechvatejte, obeane, dojdeme tarn spoledno," napominal inspektcr. Dumat se na neho trochu udivene podival, potom vgak jaksi vesele zvonil sve kroky a u dveri .zustal stati. Inspektor vegel prvni a sergant rukou vybidl, aby za nim vegel Dumat. Propustil potom 'remora a sam, veged posledni, zUstal stati u dveri.

"Mate nejakou ruenici?" zeptal se nahle inspektor, a popo ged k Dumatovi zadival se mu pronikave do odi.

"Ovgem, koupil jsem si ji, viastne mi ji kupoval Frank Terner v Quebeku, tyrde, ze zde budu ruenice potrebovati.

Chcete ji videti?"

"Ukadte mi. ji. Je nabita?"

"Myslim, ze neni. Strelil jsem z ni jednou po lisce, ktera se pal piton toulala, a od to doby jsem ji nemel v rukou.'

Sahl k clkevenernu stropu, kde na, tra,mu byly hreby zatlueeny a na rich ruenice visela. Jakmile ji sisal, inspektor chvatne po ni saki a vzav ji do rukou, gel k oknu. Znalecky se podival na znadku na rudnici vyra genou a potcm, otevrev zainek, podival se dovniti.

"Rak dvanact," povidal struene. "Z jedne Wa yne vystreleno, druha, netkauta. Nahoj dosud je v lo2isku. Prod jste jej nevynal?"

"Zapomnel jsem asi," pokreil rame- . ny.

"Nejsem loved, main zbran pouze pro osohni bezpeenost. Chybil jsem nevynay naboj; dam si po druhe pozor. MCI jsem snacl,zbran policii priblasit?"

Inspektor na jeho otazku neodpovedel, pozoruje pedlive hlaven, ze ktere bylo vystreleno.

"Jak dlouho je tornu, co jste po strelil?"

"Myslim, ze asi etrnact dial; nepainatuji se ureite" "Podivejte , inspektor ser2anta, a kdyZ' k nemu pristoupil, oba pozorovali hlaven. "Dine zbrarie nemate?"

Neni to po prve co tato knihovna projevuje mimotadnY zajem o vec Ceskoslovenske demokracie.

Pohled na jeho nohy vAak byl hrosny. Pohled na muSske nohy je kapitola sama pro sebe, kterou neni radno rozbirat esteticky, ale to, co jsem spattil tentokrat, ptekonavalo v*Sechno oeekavani.

A majitel techto nohou, na maj dotaz, proe nechal onemocneni dojit aS do takoveho stavu, odpovidal se skuteenym a nelieenYm frdivem: "Vhlyt' to mi piece nijak nevadi."

Je zcela obvykle, Ze se setkavame v ordinacich s dvema extremnimi typy pacientt. Na jedne strane jsou to takovi, kteti se snaZi na "nemocenske" vydelat, co se dd.

To jsou ti, jejich2 zdravotni sta y se "zhorluje" podle zemedelske sezony, a kteti si libuji, Ze jim pokladna z'aplati i sklizeni bramborri z vlastniho pole. To jsou marodeti, kteti maji lvi podil na zyYlene absenci, zlu, s kterYm v dnanim budovani svadime svizelne boje.

PravYm opakem je druhY extrem. To jsou ti, kteti nejdou k lekari, ani kdyZ je toho tteba. Ptemahaji svou nemoc, nevenuji ji pozornost, dokud to jen trochu jde, nestaraji se o leeeni. Nekdy z nedbalosti a liknavosti, nekdy i z duvodri ullechtilYch, Ze se snaZi za kaZdou cenu pracovat. Nakonec vgak z toho vZdy vyjde zbyteene hazarderstvi vlastnim zdravim.

V to vsi ilzkosti uvaZevala, ze snad bude lepe, aby Vojta odegel. Jakmile proti nemu ye vsi se postavili, tak hned to neptestane a nedej Pan Buh, co potom by se dalo!

Selka byla kvnutim mateinYm posilnena a zlost, zpravou Vojtovou zboufena, obratila se proti nemu. KdyZ" hned neodpovidal, zase obratila Se k nemu.

"Snad jsem yam, panimarno, tolik neublilil," ozval se Vojta krotce. "V'Zclyt' se koukejte, jak jsem sdelan. Nein divu, elovek potom nevi, co miuvi. Nemyslete si, Ce kdyi, odtud pajdu, ze lide yam daji pokoj."

"Pojd'te, maminko, kdo by to jeho klaboseni poslouchal," Ididne tekla selka, nahle pojata radosti, ze se zbavi Vojty.

All communications relatin g to editorial matters of the En g lish Section should be addressed: Associate Editor, 6402 P'ra gue Iloustua Texas.

POSTMASTER: Send form 3579 with undeliverable copies to Vestnik Pub. Co. West, Texas.

Annual Meeting of the Press Committee In compliance with Article 97b of the Bylaws of the SPJST, three-member Press Committee is required to meet once a year to discuss the needs and improvements of the official paper.

The meeting must also be attended by the editor, or editors, of the Vestnik, and the publisher or his representative.

The Press Committee is elected by the SPJST convention for the term of four years. The 15th SPJST Convention elected for this duty Brother Joseph Hornak, of College Station; Sister Frances Olexa, of Houston; and Sister Antonie Horak, of Dallas. To be more correct, these three members had been re-elected, after serving a full fouryear term before, an honor which had never occured to any other Press Committee before.

With the new honor came also new and added responsibilities. They were asked to hire an assistant editor for the English Section, to make a contract with the publisher, and to carry out a number of other dictates of the convention, such as better quality of paper, watching the prices of material and labor, the cost of the Vestnik, and the quality of reading matter offered to the members through the official publication.

Brother Jos. Hornak, chairman of the Committee, after consultation with others, decided to have the annual meeting on February 4, 1950. It has been customary to alternate the place of the meeting, so that no individual member would feel slighted. This year, Brother Hornak called the meeting, by agreement reached at the preceding meeting, to Dallas. It was held at the residence of 'SisterAntonie Horak, 5007 Alcott Street.

Besides the three members of the Press Committee, Brother Hornak, Sister Horak, and Sister Olexa, there were also present: Brother Joseph F. Holasek, of West, representing Cechoslovak.

Publishing Company; Brother Frank Moucka, editor of the Vestnik; and Brother Stephen Valcik, associate

edi-

tor of the English Section.

Sisters Hornak, Holasek, and Moucka were also present as visitors and silent observers.

Chairman Hornak delivered a short address at the opening of the meeting, stressing the intportance- and seriousness of all deliberations.

Sister Olexa, secretary of the Committee, read the minutes of the proceedings of the previous meeting held on Saturday, January 15, 1949, at Houston. The minutes were accepted with thanks to Sister Olexa for her -careful recording of all pertinent points of discussion.

At this time, Brother Hornak reported his satisfaction with the work of his co-workers on the Committee, Sisters Horak -and Olexa. He also expressed his saticfaction with the work of Brother Moucka, editor of the Vestnik, and complimented on the work of the English Section; and he, too, stated his appreciation of the service and cooperation of the publisher. In addition, he asked the editors to convey his appreciation to all the contributors to butions of Dr. Micek who has been publishing easy reading lessons for beginners in the Czech part of the Vestnik.

Chairman Hornak then turned to his committee-members for their reports, comments, recommendations, and observations.

Sister Horak appealed to the editors asking them to meet all contributors to the Vestnik halfway or more, if possible, so that all members would be encouraged to take interest in the activities of the home lodges and to take genuine interest in the SPJST. Sister Olexa brought out her observation that some of the contributors seem to be more interested in discussing in the Vestnik, both Czech and English.

He also pointed out the good contrithe official paper the political situation on the other side of the globe.

She cited one instance, that of total indifference to proposed internal improvements in the SPJST. She recalled the case of Brother Jaroslav JanMek, who presented in the Vestnik a new plan for the Sick Benefit Department with some noteworthy improvements.

Notwithstanding the clear presentation

of the plan, there was no one, not a single member out of the whole SPJST farhily, that would do as much as to write one line of appraisal, examina tion, or even a word of recognition of the amount of thinking that must have been done before the plan was put down in a volume of words.

Brother Holasek, speaking in behalf of the Cechoslovak Publishing Company, in his report stated, among others: "We have difficulties, but they are our difficulties, which we have to solve in our way. One hundred percent satisfaction is impossible to attain. But' if they are dissatisfied members, they can be counted cn the fingers of one hand.

Should the prices of material or labor go doWn, the publisher will lower his price or improve the edition of the Vestnik."

Chairman Hornak once more expressed his full appreciation of the service given by the publisher. , At this point, Brother Joe Marek, chairman of Lodge Pokrok Dallas No. 84, came in to meet the Press Committee and was invited to remain and observe the proceedings.

Brother Moucka reported at length, and with some feeling, the difficulty to limit the political expression of the members. The conflict of world problems, the capitalist-proletarian clashes, the dislikes and prejudices are reflected in the thinking of the individual members of the SPJST. He stated that at no other time he worked so strenuously to preserve the impartiality and the neutrality of the paper by trying to eliminate everything which would cause criticism and friction. He stated that he has been constantly placed between two cultural grindstones, between the older and the younger generation, with little hope to please both of them.

Brother Moucka's statements were at this time substantiated by four complaints from four SPJST members, referring, in essence, to one and the same subject: political ideology. All four complaints were taken into consideration.

The report of the associate editor was given with an explanation that since he had to keep, a list of all articles sent by mail to the publisher, he could

Strana 20 give a summary of what appeared in the English Section from January 1 till December 31, 1949. The summary was as follows: 105 articleS relative to fraternalism, fraternal insurance, functioning of the SPJST, the Supreme Lodge, the local lodges; besides, there were 153 ..editorials pertaining to various timely • topics, Other • fraternal organizations were (discussed in 16 articles. There were:35 articles on the subject of Czech immigrants, Czech customs, folkways and -culture; 21 editorials and reports dealing with our Czech students; 15 sketches from the history of Texas, and 39 articles drawn from the history of the United States. Contributions came from 14 local lodges, the first place among them achieved by Lodge Pokrok Houston No. 88 with 43 reports and announcements. Individual contributions came , from 23 members, hot counting the contributions of the officers of the Supreme Lodge who were credited as follows: President Marek, two contributions; ,Vice-president Svadlenak, four; Secretary Chupick, three. There were also 11'7 other articles on miscellaneous subjects, mostly' reprints. The associate editor, . expressed the hope that there will'be more reports, announcements, and official statements from many more local lodges, and also from the officers 031 11 :directors of the Supreme Lodge.

A rather lengthy discussion followed regarding the problem of members who move from place to place. They usually leave' it to the Post Office Department to bake action and to notify the publishor by returning undelivered copies of the Vestnik. It was decided to change the wording of the instructions to the postal authorities so that all undelivered copies would go to the office of the Supreme Lodge, and to print the instructions in a more conspicuous manner. The Press Committee regretted the coincidence of having the address of a member of the By-laws Committee confused with the address of the publisher by some uninformed postal clerks.

Brother Miro Jurcik, chairman of Lodge Jaro No. 130, came in to greet the present members and was invited to stay and observe what went on.

To comply with the dictates of Article 65 of the By-laws, the Committee again took uo the matter of better quality of paper, which matter had been deferred from the previous meeting due to uncertainty of price of paper.

Brother Holasek explained the technical parts of the problem. It was finally agreed that Chairman Hornak should visit the office of the Supreme Lok,e to

VLSTNf X WEST, TEXAS discuss the matter with the officers and directors, and to explain to them the problem of additional costs.

Brother Miro Jurcik, who was present and listened to the various points being discussed, volunteered with a suggestion that the last page of the Vestnik could carry a permanent advertisement of the SPJST. His suggestion was eagerly picked up, formulated into a motion, and adopted.

The editors were requested to make frequent appeals to the lodges, officers, organizers, Supreme Lodge officers and directors, to send to the Vestnik their reports, announcements, and contributions more frequently, and thus make the official paper a desirable medium of contact of the entire SPJST membership.

The next meeting, some time in 1951, will be held in West.

It was slightly past eight when Chairman Jos. Hornak adjourned the meeting with thanks to Sister Horak, her daughter, Sister Heddy Sebetka, and Secretary of Lodge Jaro No. 130, Johnny E. Sebetka, for their gracious hospitality. ) • 4, • (

More visits to schools will be made by the librarians so they will become better acquainted with the teachers and children, Miss Hornak said.

Reading clubs for the summer, special book lists on various subjects and more exhibits of hobbies and crafts for display in the children's room are a few more of Miss Hornak's future activities.

(Editor's Note:—Full credit for the above article goes to Brother Stanley Studney, of Lodge Pokrok Houston. He forwarded the story about Miss Hornak directly to the publisher, in hope that it would appear in the issue of the last week. Since the English Section is always assembled early Monday morning, Brother Studney's contribution had to be postponed.

Miss Ann Hornak, daughter of Joseph and Anna Hornak, of College Station, assumed her new duties at the Houston public Library very recently. When we were on the way to the meeting of the Press Committee—Brother Hornak is chairman of the committee—he incidentally mentioned that their daughter Ann secured a position in Houston after serving as a librarian in Schenectady, N. Y., and in Pasadena, Calif. We congratulate Miss Hornak to her position and welcome her to our lodge activities.)

Meeting the Young .Minds A curious bit of conversation originated one evening in the hall of the University of Houston. Rushing from one class to another, I bumped into a group of Czech students. Introduction and hand-shaking, then a question showing the originality and the spirit of the young heads.

"Would you accept short write-ups in the English Section about our Czech students?"

"Why, certainly. The Vestnik is sent to every high school, college, and university that offers courses in Czech. It is an excellent idea."

"But won't that be construed as favoritism?"

"You mean to bring a criticism? I wouldn't think so. The readers of the Vestnik are interested in all the things that our students do, irrespective of the university they attend. Make your writeups impartial, objective, and get me some pictures, if you can. Write about yourself, or your Czech Club members. Tell of your past achievements and your future plans, when you hope to graduate, or, if already have a degree, what kind, and what advance courses you are interested in. The Vestnik will gadly grant you any space you need."

But wi;In't we be censured for start ing something new?"

"Something new? Why, that's what you go to college for, to strike out for something that did not occur to anybody else before. It is the freshness and newness, new thoughts and new knowledge, what is needed to remove our staleness and complacency. I'll be waiting for you to start as soon as possible."

Days passed into weeks. Nothing happened. Apparently, the whole conversation was forgotten.

VESTNiK— WEST, TEXAS Then, last Friday, Miss Mildred M. Ka,hanek, secretary of the Czech Club, handed me an envelope, saying, "Would you do what you said you would? We shall be grateful for publishing this picture. And we shall have more of them."

Could I resist her charming appeal?

Why, you couldn't, either.

Consequently, here's the first writeup about the individual members of the Czech Club at the University of Houston.

I hope, as Miss Kahanek stated, that "we shall have more of them."

Our Little Lone Rangers. .

(By Alson J. Smith, Pastor) My, two little boys, ages seven and four, know all about the birds and the flowers. They know that the stork didn't bring them and that it takes nine months to produce a baby. The seven-year-old gets this in school, the four-year-old gets it in his very progressive kindergarten, and both of them get it, of all places, in Sunday School.

If they have any questions left over, their mother answers them without any fuss and feathers. In the matter. of sex, my kids are about as well briefed for puberty as any kids can be.

The other day, however, the older of them came up with something new, All decked cut in his new cowboy suit, he walked up to the desk where I was writing and slapped down a dollar in play money.

"Gimme a shot, Joe," he piped.

I looked up from my typewriter in amazement. "What's that?" I asked, certain I had heard him wrong.

"A shot," he said tolerantly; "You know—whiskey or something. This is the Red Dog Saloon and I'm the Lone Ranger."

"I don't think the Lone Ranger drinks," I demurred. liesides, that's not a very nice way to play. Where did you get that idea?"

Of course, I knew where he got it.

He named a western movie current at the neighborhood theater. "All the cowboys drink in the Red Dog Saloon," he protested.

"Dad," he asked, "what's whiskey and why do people drink it if it tastes so bad? In the movies, they always make faces."

As I stumbled around in an attempt to interpret the alcohol problem in terms a seven-year-old could understand, it occurred to me that the fact of alcohol in the modern world, and society's two-faced attitude toward it, must be quite as confusing to the child as the facts of sex.

Alcohol, no less than sex, can boobytrap a young life if it is not interpreted, evaluated and understood. But there is no organized attempt to provide alcohol education as there is for sex education. Children live in an environment permeated with drinking: it is in the movies they see, the cocktail lounges they pass on their way to school and church, in the jokes they hear, in the Bible stories they read, and in the conversation of their parents and older

StrOna friends, It I-, alternately plorii ied, denotinced, praised, blamed, exalted and damned.

How shall we avoid it? What shall we tell our children about alcohol?

The answer here is the same as it is in regard to sex—tell them the truth.

Don't clam up when they ask questions about it. Don't surround alcohol with mystery.

First, I wouldn't make a fetish of alcohol. I would neither praise it extravagantly nor damn it unconditionally. I would neither offer it to my children nor forbid them to touch it. would avoid giving the impression that it possessed some magic power to bring k.y and strength, and neither would I condemn it as a poison and give the impression that it was the source of most of the evil in the world. Extreme attitudes one way of the other make for extreme curiosity.

Second, I would not let my kids sample alcohol occasionally via sips of beer or wine, as some parents do.

There's a reason why the cowboys in the Red Dog Saloon make faces when they down their Taos Lightning—it tastes terrible. The drinker has to become CONDITIONED to the taste. This conditioning takes time, and it is only after the inhibitions of this conditioning period have been overcome that a person is likely to drink to iexcess.

Children beCome conditioned to things much more quickly than adults do, and there is no sense in beginning the process of conditioning a child to the taste of alcohol at an early age. By giving a child "sips," you are deliberately knocking down one of the barriers which Nature herself has erected against tooearly drinking.

The head psychiatrist at a hospital that specializes in treating alcoholics summed up the dangers in giving a child "harmless" sips of alcoholic beverages.

We were discussing drinking among teen-agers. He thumbed through a file of case-histories, drew out three or four.

"A111 these are histories of teen-age kids who have been treated here recently for chronic alcoholism," he said: He picked out one of them.

"Take this one—case of John F., sixteen years 'old. An only child. Mother began spoon-feeding him whiskey at age five to keep him quiet. By the time he was twelve, he could drink at the bar with a man of thirty. At sixteen, he developed an alcbholic psychosis, and we got him. He'll probably be all right, but he can never drink again, socially or any other way. Clear case of parental delinquency."

vtsTxtr, Third, I'd av31,1 ta-•ln,f ilia •hildren, o movies that glamor r2.e drinking- or take alcohol 'for granted, The movies, it seems to me, are doing much better in this respect now than they were a few years ago, thanks to the activities, of groups like the National Federation of Women's Clubs. Alcohol definitely should NOT be taken for granted, in the movies or anywhere else. It is something rather special, and it is a mistake to give the impression that a cocktail has no more significance than R... cup of tea. , Then, there are some things I WOULD do.

First, if I drank myself, I'd do it in front of the children. But I'd give them a full explanation of what I was drinking and why, and why . they couldn't have any.

Second, I would provide them with some sane, scientific literature, written in terms they could understand, explaining alcohol. Where would I get this literature? The Only piece of material that comes within a country mile of being usable is a little pamphlet put out by the School and College Service of Columbus. Ohio. It is entitled "Alcohol, Talks to Youth," and it was written by Dr. Howard E. Hamlin of the Ohio State Department of Education.

Third, I would take time to interpret the ads to my kids. Children pay attention to advertising (ever been shopping with a seven-year-old?). I would ex lain very carefully that, the lovely billboards notwithstanding, drinking Schlupp's beer did not automatically make a girl beautiful, and it took something more than Old Overcoat to create a Man of Distinction.

Finally, and most important, I would try to protect my children from the alcoholic booby-trap by surrounding them with the kind of environment in which they would feel loved and wanted and understood. I would treat thegi as persons possessed of real human dignity.

I would see that they acquired the rudiments of a faith which would be strong enough to carry them through the crises and tensions of life without recourse to a glass crutch. Thirty per cent of all alcoholism is due to a poor start in life. I'd do my best to see that my kids got the best possible start.

In our kind of a world, it's just as important to tell our kids the truth about the grape and the grain as it is to brief them on the birds and the bees. The Cautious Carries who make a mystery of alcohol and clam up when questions are asked about drinking are as much the enemies of the health of our ehil-

GETTYSBURG "Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live.

It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate—we cannot consecrate—we cannot hallow — this ground, the brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or retract.

The world will little note, nor long remember, what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here, have thus far so nobly advanced, it is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that the government of the peo ple by the people for the people, shall not rerish from the earth."

I am often asked, "Why doesn't our youth take more interest in our meetings?" Everytime I read The Lion (a magazine for the Lions), Newsweek, Life and various other magazines. I note the attractive cover and the quality of the paper it is printed on. I think our Publication Committee decided in favor of the quality of the paper Vestnik is printed on because there was some saving.

If one plans a home, you want a home that will be comfortable and beautiful as well but if you want one to JUST LIVE that's 0. K., but maybe some of us will go outside of a home to look for that beauty somewhere else. Your children will always be glad to come to a nice home and respect it as such.

This, probably, does not answer the question directly but indirectly by reading a fine magazine will eventually lead home.

Motor Which Changed the World. .

One day in 1833, Thomas Davenport, a young blacksmith of Brandon, Vermont, set out with his brother Oliver pn a 25-mile wagon trip to Crown Point, New York. Thomas had heard that : ,an ironworks there had a wonderful,,g41vanic battery which would "suspend-, an anvil between heaven and • earth."

Oliver was a tin peddler, , and, .Ithey jolted in, his cart over rough roads,o,to the clatter of pots and pans. re ee.

It was an historic journey, foreits ■ end result was that the uneducated. blacksmith changed the world. The mysterious device which Thomas Davenport was so eager to see was the electromagnet invented a few years previously

by Professor Joseph Henry of :!Albany and Princeton. Suspended head. •.high was a soft iron horseshoe magnet . about a foot long, wound with silk-insulated copper wire which was connected with a wet battery. There were only . a • few electromagnets in the world and the one at Crown Point was probably the most powerful.

The ironworks proprieto s had '.1.3ht6 chased it for a practical reasori:To separate iron from waste in the Weal low-grade ore, they used small magnets; when these lost their power tiezy could be remagnetized by Professor Henry's invention.

Thomas Davenport saw magicin, strument actually hold a small " anvil "suspended between heaven and earth."

He burst forth with a volley of queS .tions. If you cut one of the , wires, would the anvil drop? They told thin it would. How much did the magnet weigh? Three pounds. And the anvil? A hundred and fifty.

"Like a flash of lightning," he said later, "the thought occurred to me that here was a marvelous power. If three pounds of iron and copper wire would suspend 150 pounds in the air, what would a 300-pound magnet suspend!"

This new power must be put to work to serve man.

The owners offered to sell the apparatus for $75. Davenport had brought a little money to buy iron for his shop.

Oliver reluctantly consented to auction his tinwaresto raise part of the cash, and Thomas traded their horse for a miserable nag and a few dollars, to make up the balance.

When he had paid over the money, Thomas immediately cut one of the battery wires, and proved to himself that the magnet had lost its power. When

Strana 24 he :held the severed ends of wire together it would once more lift weights.

At that time there were hardly a dozen men in the world who knew that simplest of electrical facts.

Al was late that night when the brothers got home. Thomas aroused Emfly, his wife, and asked her to bring pen and paper. Then he began to unwind the wire from the magnet.

Aghast, Oliver pleaded with him not to destroy it. They could exhibit it and charge admission, he said.

"No," said Thomas. "I'm going to find out how it's built."

Emily wrote down the minutest details the magnet's construction as her husband completely dismantled i t.

Thomas finished the task, haggard but triumphant. He was looking far ahead.

Here was power in the raw — power that would move mountains. He was determined to build "an electromagnetic engine" if the job killed him. It did.

Froln, that day on, Thomas Davenport was a man possessed. Word got about that he was working on a perpetualmotion machine. Farmers found him too busy to shoe their horses and went to his competitors.

'His conduct seemed utter folly. Business had been fair enough; and he had every reason to expect a serene life of modest security — a station he had won after a grim ordeal of drudgery and poverty.

Thoinas Davenport was born on a stony. ' mountain farm. When he was ten years old his father died and he began ',doing a man's work — hard labar from dawn to dusk. Intermittent snatches cf schooling couldn't have added up to more than three years.

At 14 he was bound as apprentice to a' blacksmith, required to serve without pay until he was 21. Patiently Thomas served out his indenture. He had a habit of reading while he pumped the bellows. A book about the "wonders of science" was his favorite.

His apprenticeship over, Thomas opened his own smithy, and for ten years stuck to it thriftily.. Then rumors came over the hills about Professor Henry's amazing "galvanic battery."

The morning after he returned to Brandon with his treasure, Davenport began the construction of a magnet many times as large. Endly helped him _wind it.

Then he set out to invent a motor -- not a toy, but one that would run machines, ships and trains: His apProach was simple and direct. He had a device that would exert power in a straight line; he would make that power move in a circle. The unknown ancient

vtstNtx who took a sled runner and bent. it. into a wheel had a similar hr dc. idea, Davenport mounted a magnetized iron bar so that it would revolve on a pivot.

When he set up his electromagnet near it, the bar turned like the needle of a compass, stopping when its negative pole was opposite the positive pole of the electromagnet. He thought that if he could break the current before the bar stopped rotating, its momentum would carry it around until its pole came again within the pull of the electromagnet.

He and Emily spent long hours trying to do this but could not break the current by hand quickly enough to prevent the bar from stopping. Trying everything, they rediscovered a method which had been used in laboratories. They rigged little mercury cups as part of the circuit, and now could turn off the Power almost instantaneously by jerking one of the wires out of a cup.' Timing took long practice but finally they succeeded in making the magnetized bar rotate slowly on its pivot. Davenport had proved his point — this "galvanic battery" could turn a wheel!

A 22-year-old wheelwright named Orange Smalley listened with excitement to Davenport's prophecies and offered his savings for the purchase of materials. In July 1834, seven months after his first introduction to electricity, Thomas Davenport, out of intuition and scraps, had built an electric motor. The wheel made 30 revolutions a minute. Crude and feeble, the machine was the father of every electric motor in the world today.

Davenport jubilantly called in his neighbors to prove that he was no harebrained putterer, but his earnest harangue brought forth nothing but illconcealed smiles.

Seeking someone who could understand what he was trying to do, Davenport and Smalley loaded the motor on a cart and drove to Middlebury College, 20 miles away. They set up the machine in the village tavern, and Davenport, screwing up courage, went to Professor Turner, teacher of "natural philosophy."

Turner saw a demonstration of the motor.

"You have invented nothing less than a new motive power," he pronounced.

Turner wrote a letter of introduction to Professor Amos Eaton of Rensselaer Institute and recommended a book in which Davenport could find the correct names of the instruments he had been using.

Elated, Davenport went home and built a stronger motor, His crude, mer-

Ve stfeclu, due 15. imora 1950. eery-cup reawoutatnr was no longer fast enough, so he hammered the contact wires into thin springs that rubbed against the shaft of the wheel, When segments of the shaft were insulated, the wires reversed the current periodically, thus providing the positive and negative impulses which kept the wheel spinning. This was the origin of the "brush commutator" now universally used.

Cash and credit were running low.

Smalley, discouraged, withdrew from the venture. Davenport worked on alone, constantly improving his design.

Six neighbors were sufficiently impressed to make up a purse for the journey to Washington to obtain a patent.

Davenport went first to Troy, New York, where Professor Eaton of Rensselaer immediately became his champion. Eaton' sent him to Princeton to see Professor Henry, inventor of the electromagnet. Henry, enthusiastic, sent him to Philadelphia, where his motor was exhibited at Franklin Institute.

These side excursions depleted his funds; he had to scrape his pockets to buy a ticket back to Troy, and arrived at Professor Eaton's house without a cent.

He asked Eaton if Rensselaer Institute wouldn't buy his motor for $30 so that he could get home: He got his 'price and reached home without patent or motor. Destitute, discouraged, his wife and children struggling along on next to nothing, the heartsick man was persuaded by his father-in-law to give up his mad scheme and go back to his forge.

But Davenport had started something that could not be stopped. Professor Eaton had written an article about the motor. Professor Silliman of Yale had prepared an enthusiastic paper for his JOURNAL. Then a New York newspaper published a skeptical article which was slap in the face to the learned men. Professor Eaton took up the challenge and, without consulting Davenport, announced that the Brandon blacksmith would give a free demonstration of his motor in the Troy courthouse on October 14, 1835 — only a few weeks away.

Davenport penned an anguished refusal, telling Eaton he couldn't even buy materials to build a new motor. Eaton brushed aside all objections. "You haVe involved 'friends and it is your duty to support their pledges," he wrote. He followed up his letter by buying all the copper wire in Albany and sending it to Brandon. When Davenport couldn't buy the silk for insulating the wires,

But nothing in the past had created such an impact upon him as did his 27-day stay in this country. Nehru felt drawn towara••he people of America as the people ,of America felt drawn toward him.

This visit proved to Nehru that there were other values in America. He looked into the eyes of the average corn, mon Americans and found kindliness and friendliness. He found that Americans are not all hard-boiled, hardheaded, hard-hearted, and drunk with power. He found that Americans were, just like any other people, basically decent and good. He. found that Americans were not robots, that they were human beings who loved their children, affectionately patted their dogs, and tended to flowers.

Such was America's impact upon Nehru. Did Nehru create any impact upon Americans? From what inforniaton I have been able to collect from varied sources the, general consensus is that Nehru created a most profound effect upon Americans who saw him, met him, and listened to him. One thing stands out in all the comments I have read —Nehru's utter sincerity, straightforwardness, and fearlessness: Many were amazed that the head of a government, a leader of 350,000,000 people, could be so out-spoken and truth-

The Indian princes displaeing royal splendor, and others so poor that it makes one's head dizzy; the stench of the roasting flesh on the funeral pyres, and the cool beauty of the rich tombs; noble intellect like T_ gore tind Gandhi, and small children become parents at ten or twelve; a magnificent national heritage and religious ceremonies based on cow manure.

In this atmosphere grew Jawaharlal Nehru, an aristocrat, the son of a distinguished and wealthy family of Kashritiri Brahmans , which—compared to America—means the son of rich RooseVelts. He was sent to England to be educated. He still speaks his own language!, :Hindustani, haltingly. But he speaks and writes English in a style Which hardly a dozen men alive can *tele ."When Nehru returned to India from England. in 1912, at the age of 23, he plunged into politics almost at once.

He met Gandhi and was deeply shocked by the tragic incident of Amritsar, when BietisiGeneral Dyer ordered his troops to fire On a crowd of Indians, killing and Wounding hundreds. Then Nehru began to travel, and was appalled by his first real look at his native land. He saw his people so poor that they worked fer eight cents a day, so hungry and sick that they lived an average of only 25 years, so yoked by the Hindu religion that they bowed down before cows but shunned their fellow men as untouchable. Like Buddha, he gave up everything he had known in life to explore beth his own mind and the abysmal Miseries of the humble. He writes of an early visit to the peasants: "Seeing their misery, I was filled with shame and sorrow, shame at my own easygoing and comfortable life, sorrow at the degradation and overwhelming poverty of India."

Nehru joined Gandhi's civil disobedience and in 1921, along with hundreds of others, fought for the honor of being arrested. Between 1921 and 1934 he spent five and a half years in jail in seven terms. Jail gave him time to think, to develop his political philos-

vtITNIK—WroT, 11.0tAn ophy. He became convinced that imperialism was India's basic enemy and that, since British imperialism was a capitalist growth, he must attack capitalism too. Therefore, he must be a socialist as well as a nationalist revolutionary. This is the root of Nehru's creed.

In one of his interviews by American newspapermen, Nehru told them: "I am not a dictator * * * India is a democracy—I must carry my people with me." The last sentence, "I must carry my people with me," tells the whole story. It spells out the problem.

And that problem is that the vast majority of the people of India are suspicious of America—not that America has done anything, but because of the 200 years of British rule in India.

Let us not forget or overldok a simple, a very simple fact: The Americans speak the same language as the British do, the Americans look like the British, eat like the British, and dress like the British— and people of India have had such a bad taste of the British. Memories are still fresh. The same Nehru who is now the Prime Minister of India was rotting in a British jail until May 1945-4 1/2 years ago. Nehru has no traces of bitterness left in him for his former jailers, but Nehru is a great man—and India, like all other countries, is full of plain and ordinary people. Thus the memories and suspicions of the foreign ruler still linger on, ) • 4 •

The Sooner, the Better Lots of families, our kind of families, are thinking kindly of Henry Kaiser these days. Henry is going to bring out a new, low-priced automobile. He says he's going to undersell Ford and Chevrolet by $200 or $300. On a standardsize car, too. And one that will give approximately twice the gas mileage you get out of your Ford or Chevrolet —if Kaiser's performance lives up to his claims.

We don't know any more than anyone else whether the small Kaiser car will even ride well, much less whether we will ever want to own one. We do know that if Henry Kaiser succeeds, the price of automobiles will come down. It isn't that Kaiser by some miracle is going to give us twice as much automobile for our money. But, he is going to separate the Price of gadgets—the ash trays, the clocks that never run, the cigarette lighters, the arm rests, and all the other frills from the price of the car. If we want frills we can buy them extra. If your family can't afford frills, you won't have to pay for them to get a new car.

Ve stledu, dne 15, finOre. 1950,

You'd think that everybody would agree that this is a step in the right direction. You'd think that everybody ought to be encouraging Kaiser. You'd think * * well, stop thinking and read the newspaper columnists. Some of them are saying that Henry Kaiser is corrupting the Gcvernment. When he got into real financial difficulty, Kaiser went to Uncle in Washington for some help. Like 51,000 other businessmen before him, Kaiser got a loan from Uncle's Reconstruction Finance Corporation. The RFC has lent out a lot of money to business and so far it has actually turned a profit for the Government—and the taxpayers—of $575,000,000 after paying all expenses.

Of course, there is a group of bigbusiness men and their Congressmen who just don't like Henry Kaiser. They say he's not a healthy influence on the free-enterprise system. He thinks it's good business to get along with unions.

And, he actually is trying to undersell the market. So they're going to throw as much mud as they know how at Henry Kaiser's new venture. They'd like to put him out of the automobile business.

Maybe they'll succeed. If they don't, Ford, General Motors, and Chrysler are going to have to bring out a new line of low-priced cars to compete with Kaiser.

Somehow, we think most families feel that would be a good thing for the country.

WHEN A PERSON CAN'T SLEEP I often think this "insomnia" business is about 90 percent nonsene. When I was a young man living in a boardinghouse in Toronto, my brother George came to visit me, and since there was no spare room, we had to share my bed.

In the morning, after daylight, I said to George, "Did you get much sleep?"

"I hardly slept a wink," said he.

"Neither did I," I rejoined. "I could hear every sound all night."

Then we put our heads up from the bedclothes and saw that the bed was covered with plaster. The ceiling had fallen on us in the night. But we hadn't noticed it. We had "insomnia."

Za 24 hodin jeji chut' na jidlo se zlepgila a mohla se pohybovati jen s malYm belhanim.
