Byla to shoda prijiti domil z kramu, kde prave pted tim mel jsem, dost easu pteeisti dopis br. Studnieneho, ye kterem se rozepsal o to stare instituci — milovani.

Byl jsem nadgen jeho obdivuhodnYmi slovy na tak staly jemnY predmet. Doma na stole vidim velkou puketu kviti a na obalce me jmeno.

Na ceste k domovu premY glel jsem o onom. elaku .a usinaje vzpomel jsem si na ptitele, jenZ se tazal zdali vim co - jest laska. Hned jsem, na to neodpovedel neb to jest otaka, na kterou nelze lehko odpovedet. Vgelicos, i z me zku genosti, ptiglo na mysl a koneene jsem odpovedel, Ze jest to velmi ptijemna vec, neni ani elovieka koho by laska nezajimala, alespon jednou za Zivota a vet gina o mnohokrat vice.

Odpovedel priteL "Lask y jest teh lehtavy cit kolem srdce, ktery nemilZe g pogkabat."

A ten pti gla mysl na hocha, jenZ prase byl v kostele kde kazatel natizoval, pry musi mit lasku pro Panaboha s celYm srdcem. Ptigel chlapec domu ukazujic ye tvati velkou nespokojenost a maminka se

“Ach, marnink3 nag kazatel same milovat Panaboha s celyrr srdcem, jak iriffUn mit takovou lasku pro nej, kdy2. ja to main tak rad."

Maminka yzala chlapce do kuchyne a Za cl ala, by ji ptines1 velkou inisu a napinil ji zemaky do vrchovata a ted' mu 7-ekla: "Vidig hochu, misa je napinena. Dal bys jegte jeden brambor, ten by ji g spadl proto, Ue neni tam vice mist y. Ale ted' ptines konvu pisku z hromady a nasyp mezi,zemaky au se diry vypini." Chlapec udinil jak mu narizeno a jiU trochu chapal co maminka zamYgli. ted' nalej vodu na pisek aU bude cely promoeenY." Maly synek ueinil tak a matka vane vysvetlila ptiklad: "Ted' se podivej, misa jest pina zemaka, ale piece byla hodne mist y zasypat diry mezi ne a je gte bylo misto na vodu, v kaalem pripade na pino. A tak je to s milovanim, mutes Panaboha i me milovat s celym srdcem a jegte moUno napino mllovat jinak.

S takovYmi my glenkami jsem pri gel do svetnice a neni divu, Ue jsem mel lasku na mysli.

Opravdu jest to moje jmeno. JiU jsem mel nadeji, Ze nekdo me miluje a nadgene hrabu se do obalky abych vy gettil jmeno posilajici.

"Ale ja piece nejsem nemocnY, adkoliv mohu bYt trochu malo nemocnY. Ale tohle me nepatki, je to omyl," tekl jsem celkem zklaman.

"Povidala's uz Josefovi o hostinci radnici?" vzpomnel si Holasek, kdyZ prichazeli na Kasoticke chude namesti.

Prase proti nim pies namesti zvedalo se nechrabane, velke staveni pod jedno.poschodi, s vi2kou na strek. Zdi byly oprAele, edive, barva oken, vyrudla a celek civil dojem starobylosti a sklosti. Byla to radnice Kasoticka. Nahore byla mestska filiadovna, v jednom pokoji byla mistni zalokm a ostatni mistncsti vyplnovala Oetnicka kasarna. V pfizemi byl hostinec a tabule prave tak skid jako dam sam nesla nazev: "Hostinec na radnici."

"Nepovidala, kde pak si C:lovek hned na vkchno vzpomene. Vidis, Josefe, tamhle je" "Koukam, s e je tam nejakY vetk. hostinec. Chcete tarn jit?"

"Zastavime se tam, ale snad az po ted' se podivame napred do ko'stela. ftikal jsem Marjance, to ze by se pro vas hodilo. Je to znamenita hospoda, Myna, a vYnosna." Zdvihl prsty a luskl.

"Tohle pro mne?" usmal se Josef firtune, "Do takoveho hnizda nezapadnu.

Co by se tady dalo vytkit? Leda nejake ; ivobyti. A na to se nechytim. skrovne 2 jednou se budu delat samostatnYm, musi to za to stat."

"Nechci tuze napfed chvalit, ale uhlidate, is e to neni jenom tak," pottas1 Holasek hlavou. "Kasotice se nezdaji, ale je tu :Zivno, lip nez /lade v kraji. Nejsou tu mimo na radnici M.dne poradne hospody, vSecko, co je lepsi, jinam nezajde a pak je tu velke okoli, ktere sem ma sped. Kdo na sobe da, trochu zale'Zet, kid jde jen na radnici.

POSTMASTER: Send form 3579 with undeliverable

To Their Mehories Next Tuesday, May 30, is a legal holiday, which many of us will fail to observe.

We never did include the Memorial Day, May 30, as an important day in our fraternal activities.

But we should. And if we don't do it on that particular day, we should do it at our next monthly meeting which happens to be a few days later, either the first or the second Sunday of the month, or one evening of a week day shortly after the first of the month.

We, as a Nation, have our Memorial Day. On that day, we pay homage to our gallant dead who served their country 'on the battlefields of earth and sky and sea. We do this in all the cemeteries of this great land, in many houses of worship, in many places of public gatherings, even in the legislative halls and the U. S. Capitol.

This custom of remembering our departed members has not been observed in cur fraternal meetings. We don't seem to have cur own remembrance day except shortly after the death of a member. Sometimes, in the annual meeting, we read the list of the departed members or we just name a number which represents our losses: Let us observe the Memorial Day with more dignity this year. Let us do it in our next regular monthly meeting. If ycu wish to know how, let me explain.

Prepare for your local chairman a list of all the departed members since May 30, 1949. If the list is not too long, you can make a short sketch as to the departed member's age, length of membership, service in the lodge, and the time of his death. Your chairman will know what to say before he would read the list.

In the midst of today's turmoil and haste, it is fitting that we pause to pay homage to those members of the SPJST who have answered their last roll call.

With sincere appreciation of the attributes of each and every departed SPJST member during the past twelve months, we should especially remember those seven charter members who were admitted to the SPJST on July 1, 1897, and who had answered within the past twelve months the call to the final

meeting. Those seven members were: Sister Jenny Ha ylik, from Lodge Cesky Prapor No. 24, age 85, in July, 1949.

Brother Martin Danchak, from Lodge Slovan No. 9, age 82, in August, 1949.

Brother 'Thomas Slaolcik, from Lodge Karel JonaS" No. 28, age 87, in October 1949.

Brother Joseph Bobalik, from Lodge Ennis No. 25, age 91, in December, 1949.

Brother Frantisek Jirasek, from Lodge Pokrok Gainesville No. 101, age 86, in December, 1949.

Sister Anna Fojtik, from Lodge Velehrad No. 19, age 90, in January, 1950.

Brother Tom Prikryl, from Lodge NovY Raj No. 71, age 77, in April, 1950.

As we pay tribute to the memory of these chartered members, who preceded us through the gateway to the unseen, let us also remember other members who, too, were our members. Let us remember them in the next monthly meeting of every local lodge of which they were members. Let us remember that they were our comrades only yesterday, and have left a task of service upon us that we may not set aside —the service of benevolence, humanity, and brotherhood. )• •

Send In Your Reports Maybe we don't need the English Section thinking that the majority of the SPJST members will get all the pertinent information from the Czech part.

Maybe we are following the ,method of the patriarch Moses who dragged his followers over a desert for forty years waiting for the old generation, pass on to its eternal rest before the new generation was molded into shape to enter the Promised Land. Maybe, our forty years is not over.

Three weeks ago I talked with a young SPJST organizer asking him about his progress. He expressed disappointment. "I received some kind of report from the Headquarters," he said, "but it did me no good.' It was all in Czech. Now, when it comes to understand what somebody is saying in

Czech, I can get along all right, to a degree. But when you give me that stuff on paper, I'm lost. It takes , me to long to wade through it, and I lost interest halfway finished."

I asked him what the report was.

"Oh, it was about the new members, or something. I really don't know."

He agreed to my suggestion to help him in translating the report for him, but that was three weeks back—and he evidently lost the interest altogether.

Why do I stick my neck out in mentioning this? Simply fcr the reason to remind myself and others that our wandering over the desert may be shortened if we pay more attention to the needs of the younger generation who are to go on. We, the old bearded and bewhiskered travelers, will pass on to our eternal reward, but there will be the younger generation who will take over where we have left off.

Editor Moucka revealed in the Czech Section that a report from the Headquarters was sent out regarding the gain in membership. Probably it was the same report which the young organizer mentioned to me three weeks ago.

A report of this nature would be appreciated if it were published in the English Section. It would be a report which should be printed for encouragement. It is the type of reading that should have preference above everything else. If we are to have the English Section as it should be, anything from Headquarters will get a priority.

We shall be waiting for this and similar reports. )

We Welcome Competition During the past week, according to the previous announcements, two of the supreme officers of the Western Bohemian Fraternal Association visited our state of Texas. The W. B.

He and Brother Ronian Hruska, vice-president of the society, visited Texas two years ago, and again within the last few days. Both of them

When I was talking with them in the early part of 1948, Brother Hruska jokingly stated that they came to stimulate us to a greater activity. I thanked him by saying that the SP.JST would appreciate their visits more frequently.

The W. B. F. A. has a number of local lodges in Texas, nearly all of them what may be termed "resentment lodges."

An individual or two did not get the right recognition from the local SPJST group, could not achieve what his hear was set en, felt slighted or ignored, s he had to justify his disappointment by making himself useful in another direction. If he didn't, his own personality would have been crushed, whipped, causing serious mental distress.

Thus, a number of "resentment lodges" had been created in the past inside of our own SPJST, and now a few "resentment /lodges" of the W. B. F. A. have been organized.

Frankly Speaking, there is nothing wrong in having another fraternity working side by side with the SPJST. And there is more truth than poetry in the joking of Brother Roman Hruska about their stimulation. Evidently, they did us a favor. the year when he made his statement about prodding us to greater activity, the SPJST had a ne gain in adult membership of only 404 members; the W. B. F. A. showed a net gain of 960 members —more than twice as many. However, the last year we took the prodding more seriously, for the SPJST had net gain of 466 in adult membership, and the W. B. F. A. shows net gain of 483 in adult Membership.

That makes a difference of seventeen members more for the W. B; F. A. than for the S. P. J. S. T. In other words, it means that if our lodges in Houston, Shiner, San Antonio, Ennis and Dallas had shown just a little more attractiveneSs, only a little more , push, or pride, or tact, cr, wish; -Or something, ten members could have easily been secured for the SPJST. Ten more for us would have been ten less for the "resentment" side. Since the difference . was only seventeen, split the difference —and -you- have no difference.

Yes. we welcome competition —even if it is only in one -of the twenty states in which the WBFA operates, in our own Texas.

One Notch Higher On. January 1, 1949, we found that our SPJST held the sixty-fourth place among all the fraternal benefit societies.

This year, the SPJST moved one notch nigher by securing the sixty-third place.

The respective position of each and every fraternal society is based on its financial strength, the total assets of each organization. The Western Bohemian is in the 35th place, the Czechoslovak Society of America in the 48th :lace, the Sons- of Hermann in Texas in the 49th position, the SPJST in the 63rd, the KJZT in the 111th, and the KJT in the 117,th place. Of all these societies mentioned here, the SPJST was the only one which had advanced to a higher position from the preceding year. ( )

EXCERPTS FROM THE MEETING OF THE SUPREME LODGE

The second regular 1950 meeting of the Supreme Lodge was held at Fayetteville, Texas, Tuesday, April 11, with -the following members of the Supreme Lodge present: Edward L. Marek, Frank G. Svadlenak, John F. Chupick, Jos. Koliha, Jr., Chas. Navratil, J. M. Skrabanek, Frank Rod, and J. C. Eineigl.

Treasurer Koliha supplemented this observation with a statement that a certain physician refused to examine an applicant of Lodge No. 26 for less than $4.00.

After considerable discussion of this matter it was decided that, for the time being, the Supreme Lodge should not raise the medical examination fee generally, but that in cases where the medical examiners decline to perform the medical examination for $3.00, in such instances the Supreme Lodge should be â&#x20AC;˘ authorized to pay as much as $5.00 for the examinations.Vice-president Svadlenak stated that he had .no report to make in addition to his written report submitted in advance.

Brother Joseph Hornak, of College Station, chairman of the Press Committee, came before the meeting and presented to the Supreme Lodge the request and recommendation of the Press Committee that the Vestnik be printed on a better and heavier grade of paper. He submitted samples of 35 lb. grade of paper, stating that the Press Committee recommended this quality, the cost of which paper is approximately 31/2c per pound more than the paper now used for the Vestnik. Brother Hornak stated that the Press Committee was unanimously in favor of using better grade of paper as decided by the last convention, and requested that the Supreme Lodge would approve the recommendation of the Press Committee, stating further that in the event the Supreme Lodge did not approve the recommendation of the Press Committee that the matter may be submitted direct to the member hip for endorsement as provided in the By-laws.

Several members of the Supreme Lodge expressed the opinion' that since . the publication of the Vestnik is costing us in excess of $26,000 annually, that it might be better for the Supreme Ledge not to approve the increase of the cost of the Vestnik by the use of better grade of paper, but let the next convention take some action on it, and explain to the membership of the Order why the Supreme Lodge cities not favor,

It ES TNIX â&#x20AC;&#x201D; WEST, TEXAS for the time being, the increased cost of better grade of paper. It was esti:mated that the use of better quality of paper, such as recommended by the Press Committee, would increase the cost of the Vestnik by approximately $2,000 or more, annually. After considerable discussion, upon motion by Director Rod, -seconded by Director Skrabanek and carried, the Supreme Lodge approved the recommendation of the Press Committee and authorized the use of the 35 lb. grade of paper for the Vestnik, with the Understanding that this improvement be put into effect en July 1, 1950.

President Marek stated that the Supreme Lodge is doing everything in its power to curs the practice of sending the Vestnik to members who do not care for it, and requested all the members of the Supreme Lodge to report to the Headquarters the names of any members of the Order that do not care to read it or to receive it.

Brother Jos. Hornak thanked the Supreme Lodge for its consideration and adoption of the request and recommendation of the Press Committee, and departed from the meeting.

Secretary Chupick reported that he was adviced by Director Kubala over the telephone that Director Kubala could not be present at the meeting on account of a sudden attack of rheumatism; and Secretary Chupick also stated that he received a letter from Editor Moucka advising that he could not be present at the meeting, also on account of an attack of rheumatism.

The meeting was recessed for noon, and again resumed one hour later.

Brother Ignac Senkyrik, of Lodge No. 163, came to the meeting and remained during the afternoon session.

Secretary Chupick reported the indebtedness of certain member who borrowed the full loan value against his certificate a number of years back, and the interest of the loan has gradually been accumulating to the extent of almost the same amount as the original loan, thus making the total of the principal and interest nearly the face value of the certificate; and that the said member should be appraised of the fact that the value of this member's certificate has almost entirely been consumed by the indebtedness, and that the withdrawal of membership remains the only solution.' It was finally decided that President Marek and , Secretary Chupick inform the said member of the actuality in such manner that the said member would not feel deprived of his rights or that he was treated unjustly.

Secretary Chupick , reported that the Humble Oil & Refining Company de-

Strana 21 sired that certain legal instrument be executed by the Supreme Lodge pertaining to an oil lease. A resolution, incidental to this transaction, was passed.

Secretary Chupick presented for consideration and decision several items: postponement of payment on a real estate loan; request to issue a paid-up certificate to a brother of a member who disappeared â&#x20AC;&#x201D; this matter was turned over to Attorney Kacir; a case of payment of balance of unpaid death claim of a deceased member where the beneficiary designation was indefinite, "for some benevolent purpose." The member, before his death, had a loan against his certificate in the amount of $110.00, and the funeral expenses amounted to $200.00, and the remainder of the death claim to be paid to the deceased brother and not to some charitable institution. Vice - president Svadlenak made a motion, unanimously accepted, that the matter be presented to Attorney Kacir for his consideration.

Another item was reported by Secretary Chupick pertaining to the payment of death claim to the second wife of the deceased, while the first wife, never divorced, was also living. The certificate designated the second wife as beneficiary. This case was also presented to Attorney Kacir for his consideration.

Several real estate loans were taken up, discussed and closed.

By common consent it was agreed that all loans secured by city property should be at 5% interest, irrespective of whether or not the payments on such loans are made on the monthly, annual or any other basis. It was further agreed that on city property loans the payments should be made payable on the monthly basis, except in such cases where there is a good and substantial reason for making the payments payable otherwise.

Secretary Chupick read a letter from Brother Hugo Freund, Vice-president of Lodge Jaromir No. 54, thanking the officers of the Supreme Lodge for their participation in the community meeting held at West.

Secretary Chupick presented to the Supreme Lodge a booklet of 24 pages containing all the rates on all our certificates and all important information pertaining to our certificates, double indemnity, .premium waiver, etc., which booklet Secretary Chupick prepared and compiled to be handy for our organizers.

It was agreed to postpone the publishing of the handbook.

Financial-secretary Urbanovsky supplemented his written report by the statement that according to the actuarial report, as of December 31, 1949, our solvency ratio was 114.32; death

weather change =storrns and fog belts lifting over the Great Circle route to France. Thirteen hours of furious activity followed. It ranged from picking up five sandwiches, five quarts of water, a passport and—as a courtesy—several letters of introduction, to towing the Spirit of St. Louis to Roosevelt Field, with its longer runway. When he climbed into the cockpit at 7:45 next morning, Lindbergh had had no sleep for 24 hours.

Lindbergh's expression as he listened to the engine gave no hint that the most dangerous part of the whole flight stared him in the face, the danger of the take-off. No engine of such small horse power had ever lifted such a heavy load. Telephone wires, trees and other hazards loomed at the far end.

He ran up the engine to full power, while engine experts listened. She was still 40 revolutions shy—but, said the experts, running as well as could be expected on a damp day. Lindbergh thanked them and nodded to the mechanics. "Checks away!"

Fire-fighting apparatus dashed to the end of the runway. The• crowd was tense.

They remembered the flames that had consumed Davis and Wooster a month before. They felt a swift compulsion to stop this youth. It was too late. The wheels had begun their momentous roll.

Five seconds, ten, fifteen—and the'tail skid was still trailing in the mud. Get the tail up! Twenty'-five seconds, thirty —past the safety mark now, too late to cut the gun and try again. Now! A harder patch of runway, a sudden quickening—a bounce, another, a long bound, a cheer from the crowd. She's up!

Up, up, inch by inch, flashing past the fire truck. Ten feet to spare over a tractor. Twenty over the telephone wires. Enough speed to clear the trees and squeak around the hillside.

Lindbergh described it , thus: "About 7:40 a. na. the motor was started, and at 7:52 I took off on the flight to'Paris."

The day dragged through noon, faded into evening before the first note of cheer came to millions hanging breathless on the fate of the young flier. At 7:15 p. m. word flashed from Newfoundland that the Spirit of St. Louis had passed St. John's—on time, on course.

At the MMMaMMMMMMMMMM At_the Maloney-Sharkey fight in Yankee Stadium, 40,000 fans rose as one man at the announcer's voice, uncovered their heads and prayed for Lindbergh.

Far out over the dark sea the lone pilot was bracing himself for the battle of his life. Ile coaxed his loaded plane higher and higher. The fog rose after him like a specter of Death. What was ahead?

Snow? Ice? Storm? How far across? How many more miles of this bad flying?

VESTNIK— WEST, TEXAS Ten miles? A hundred? What was ahead? Wouldn't it haVe been like the voice of an angel if some friendly voice would stream through a headpiece to tell the secret of what was ahead? Go on? Turn back? Try again another day?

Still the worse was to come—ice began to form on the wings of the plane, ice, the worst enemy of pilots. The plane began to shudder and shake. Lindbergh was forced to turn around and get back to clear air, to fly around any clouds which he could not climb over.

Turn and twist, now north, now south, in the middle of the night, in the middle of the ocean. Each turn added distance, each turn sucked up gasoline.

The need of sleep was paralyzing. To combat it, LiAdbergh checked instruments, checked course, tried everything to keep awake. He took his feet off the rudder and stamped them; instantly the plane slued off course. He shook his head from side to side—there was no headroom for bouncing up and down.

He hit his face stinging blows with the palm of his hand, he fidgeted—anything to create diversion.

The sun was fairly high when the first breaks began to show in the blanket layers below. A few more minutes and there, at the bottom of a vast hole, streaked the sea. Like a gull, the Spirit of St. Louis swooped to meet it, plunging to within a hundred feet of the gray, tossing waste. Dimension at last, after the shapeless fabric of the skies.

Whitecaps! The navigator's instinct knew a glow of satisfaction, for the spray was driving from the northwest.

A tail wind! Perhaps it was then that Lindbergh bit into a sandwich, the only one he was to consume during the flight.

But as if begrudging him even this Miserly respite, the cloud curtain closed down again, forcing him to fly blind for two more unbroken hours.

Lindbergh had no way of knowing that he and the Spirit of St. Louis were already in every headline, on every tongue; that fear clutched at every heart as the announcers' voices, cut into programs throughout that interminable Saturday: "There is still no word . . ."

By this time Lindbergh was two days and nights without sleep. Suddenly, a aandful of specks came into view, a little south. Lindbergh could hardly trust his tired eyes. He nosed the Spirit of St. Louis down. Fishing boats! That meant land in the offing. Lindbergh circled a boat and throttled down. He had waited a long time to ask his question. "Which way to Ireland?" he shouted. But the fisherman remained frozen to his seat.

Lindbergh gunned up and resumed his course. Land! Even from a modern air liner that first strip of earth—so thoroughly secure after the immensity

Strana 23 of sea—is a wonderful experience. As the coast line spread and the late sunshine flooded Dingle Bay, the tired pilot's cup of happiness must surely have spilled over. The southwest tip of Ireland! He was on course.

Then those last five hours on weary but triumphant wings. In the thrill of achievement, sleep now seemed unimportant. Over Ireland, over neat, pretty England, across the Channel in the peaceful twilight—it was like following the evening chimes homeward. When dusk deepened to dark, the LondonParis airway beacons pointed steady fingers to journey's end.

Paris! There all at once was Charles Augustus Lindbergh, of St. Louis, Mo., circling the Eiffel Tower, 3610 miles and 33 1/2 hours out of New York. Spiraling down to Le Bourget, he marveled at the density of French Saturday-evening traffic, the incredible mass of people around the field, with every face turned up.

As the Spirit of Bt. Louis rolled along the turf the crowds surged toward it, a hundred thousand voices lifting a deafening roar. Lindbergh cut the switch lest the propeller kill somebody. Parts of the ship began to crack from human pressure. He edged open the door, yelled desperately for mechanics, but his voice was lost in the tumult. He was torn from the cockpit, passed from hand to hand, upside down, right side up. It was half an hour before his feet touched the grOund. Then French pilots rushed h_im to safety.

Cables clicked to every corner of the world. Throughout America, radio and movie programs were interrupted. The boys in the Ryan plant yelled themselves hoarse. The stately New York Times, beside itself, crowned six solid pages of text with the most exuberant headline in its' history: LINDBERGH DOES IT! In the mad months that followed, it was no ordinary young. man who' kept his head level, who walked with kings and crowds, his genuine modesty .untouched. He had an instinct for translating decent thoughtS into simple, unaffected words—as in the first :speech of his life in which he offered the people of France his sympathy for the joSs of Nungesser and Coli, their heroes who had attempted, he explained, a far more pe.rilcus feat than his own.

By the time he sailed home, on a cruiser sent by the President of the United States, movie and advertising offers alone had topped $2,500,000. He refused everything except the Orteig prize and a few hard-earned technical and writing awards stemming from his ' achievement. His flight had been made to advance aviation. That it did.

Lindbergh sought desperately to avoid public and press. His popularity wavered, then flared during the tragic kidnapping of his young son in '32. He fled with his family to live in England until war -broke out, then returned to offer his services in aviation.

The students were pleased to see so many leading members of the Lodge present, and are deeply grateful to all members of Lodge Pokrok No. 88 for making it possible to hold their dance there.

The attendance of our members, to the monthly meetings, which are held on the first Sunday of each month, was becoming alarmingly small.
