NASE KULTURNi ODPOI/DNOST ASTAVTL MNE stargi Glen. Oba Z jsme 61i na Ceske divadlo. "Bratte redaktore, via ty, co nejvice potfebujeme, abychom (Alvin ne.6 ospalk spolkovk Ovot?" ptal se mne. Usoudil jsem, ma-li otazku, Ze ma take odpoved'. Proto jsem zavrtel hlavou, Ze nevim. A on pokraeoval: "My bychom meli miti kulturni odbor, vedenk Hlavni Ufadovnou, abychom men lep6i vliv na flak mlad61 eleny."

Nekdy otevtene ucho rozvaie druhemu jazyk. Kdy2 jsem se z.dal bkti nechapavkm, vysvetlova1 dale: " Ceti jsem ye Vestniku, 't.e v kaLlem distriktu si voli nebo ustanovuji jakksi programovy vybor. My jsme zvolili to eleny. V Lestem distriktu maji peticlenny vYbor. V jinych distriktech budou asi take napodobit. Ale nemys116, Ze by se kaZdemu tomu ' programovemu vkboru pracovalo lep6i, kdyby byl spolecny plan? Nebylo by clobre, kdybychom meli, abych to tak neMkovne naznaeil, spoleeneho relisera?"

Onen e'en si asi nevzpomnel, Ze opakoval slova, ktera jsem pronesl pH distriktni schrizi v Nelsonville. Tenkrate jsem poclotknul, ze pro lepsi spolkovou einnost pottebovali bychom mladeho eloveka s lep6im vzdelanim, tak trochu jako uaitele, zpevaka, herce a iecnika v jedne osoby, kterk by mohl bYti poslan .111PA emlaclinu u kaaleho vet6iho radu, aby /aloZil omlactinove kroniky nebo kluby. Nam star6im ne a ne aby se to povedlo. Musel by to bYti mladk elovek s dostateenou znalosti eeAtiny, aby vyhovel nam star6im, a s perfektni znalosti anglietiny, aby mel respekt a duveru mladeZe. Zvonek ohla goval zaeatek divadla. li jsme spolu usednouti v hlediMi. Mezitim on pckraeoval: "Prot se o torn nerozepi6e6 v organu? Piece je to tvoje povinnost, abys to na6i spolkovou a uleZefou pildu trochu zoral."

To ()rani je dobra vec, a ysak drileOtejAi vec je, co do zorane pudy se naseje, Chyby najdc leckdo, To je take

Naiim dentirn od redaktora V sobotu a v nocteli, 15.-16. listopadu, konala se druha schtlze staVebniho vYboru, kterato teleso bylo povereno - vehni oehavyin fikolern vyplanovati novY domov pro nak Ustredi. Ve schtizi bylo jen sedm elenn stavebniho vYboru, broth Matush, Syptak, Sefeak, Stehlik, Olexa, Sablatura a Mareak. Redaktor byl privoaby mohl elentim podati spravnY a podrobnY referat, co se projednavalo a jak daleko planovani ohledne noveho domova pokroello. V sobotu vYbor probiral spoustu spletitYch otazek z hlediska oh chodniho i pravniho, a east odpoledne vYbor ztravil inspekcerni rOznych mist. V nedeli rano zaeato poznovu v rokovani, uva2ovani a vymene nahledti. Broth sta.vebniho vYboru jeden vedle clruheho znavali se, 2e kdy'Z by se jednalo o jejich viastni budovu a osobni kapital, Yeah by,

jak ppkraeovati. Nebylo 1 y ffeba tak velike opatrnosti, aby uspokojena byla yerejnost, vet gina elentI Schuze stavebniho vYboru ukoneena byla ve 3 hocliny odpoledne.

Nebylo by spravnYm, aby redaktor prozrazoval predeasne vkchny podrobnosti, ktere byly stavebnim vYborein projednavany. Stavebni vYbor musi nejdrive dostati dobrozdani a yYpoety od stavitele.

Bude-li jeden plan ptiliS nakladnY, ptijde v nvahu plan druhY. Uka.2e-W. se take druhY plan nakladny, promysli se plan treti.

KaZdY z techto mo'ZnYch planti ma sve vyhody a sve nevYhody. Kandy z nich vztahuje se na koupi jineho majetku. Aby se prozrazov4ly podrobnosti, bylo by nevYhodou pri kupovani mista. Tolik moZno oznamiti elentim, ae jakmile stavitel oznami jeho vYpoety planu prvniho, vYbor musi rozhodnouti, zdali plan je prijatelnY nebo bude nutno ptikroeiti k plane druhernu. Dale mohu iici, Ze jsou na vyboru muZi rozvaZni, kteti se neukvapi, kteri jednotlive nepodlehaji c,rguinentUm druheho, ale kteti vkchno vyslechnou a pak samostatne tivaZuji. Na nekterem bodu se shoduji jednohlasne, na jinem jsou dva, tti i etyti rUznici se nahledy, a opet na jinem bodu je pouze jedinY °postern hlas. Vkclano je zapisovano, o kazde veci se hlasuje, nic nevi prijato kYvnutirn hlavy. VYbor se rozjizdel v nedeli k veeeru s vedomim, Ze nejteMi otazky byly vyrizeny tak, dalece, ae v nekolika rnalo dnech bude vYbor vedeti, zdali se uplatni-plan , prvni, plan drulaY nebo plan treti. Pak bude moZno' eleniun oznamiti dychtive oeekavane podrobnosti.

Obehodni komora costa Temple zvedela, 2e vYbor zaseda, a nasledovne plavila pro eleny vYboru pohostinnY obed v nedeli v poledne. Predseda komory, Mr. Glenn Morgan, telefonoval v nedeli rano vyboru, aby zasedajici jeho pozva.ni. AC mestska obchodni komora nema Zadne vztahy ku plantm vYboru, a. dokonce nevi, co vYbor planuje, nabidnute pohostinstvi bylo vhodnYm dUkazern, ze obchodni komora mesta Temple dostateene oceriuje nak poeinani.

Spoluprace deti a dorostu na distriktnich programech je jeden z prostredkU v ziskavani omladiny pro spolkovou einnost. V programech me postupne vySkolovati made znevaky, hudebniky, recitatory, kteri podobnYrn verejnYm vystupovanim ziskaji nejen potrebny za.jern pro dalM umeleckou vYchovu, nYbr2 i pozvolne zkuknosti pro praci spolkovou. Tyto distriktni programy jsou prOve tun vYvojovYrn alankem pro dospivajici kde mUeme vychovavati priS11 radove einovniky, mohia i divadelni ochotniky. 1VInozi z na'Sich dospivajicich hocht a deveat mohli by se

listo

merit a rovnat temer dospelYm ocl otniktim. Tato spoluprace na distriktnich programech nejen ze yUsobi vychovne, nYbrZ udrZuje zajem i do pozdefSich let pro praci spolkovou, cot z y laMe v dneAni dobe je naM.snahou.

Pit• distriktnich prograrnech nesmitne prehliZeti toho, ze mladY hen tea milZe dostati prilelitost obohatiti svon znalost Ceske feel. ZvlaSte Ceske pisne jsou pro zapamatovani CeskYch slov porrifickou nejlepSi. Nejeden hoch a nejedno deveatko nemluvi mnoho cesky, ale nauete je nekolika CeskYm pisniekam a nova slova, ha cele vety, utkvi v mysli. Napred se bude zdati, Ze dite nerozumi smyslu toho, co zpiva, a pak vas prekvapi, Z"e yetak samortejme, jako se to dela tu v hovoru mezi dospelYmi. V minute schnzi pateho distriktu, Itonane v Needville koncem zati, usneseno bylo, aby kaZdY tad naleZejici do pateho distriktu, zvolll si ye sve vYroeni jednoho nebo dva distriktni delegaty, kteri byli by poveteni rad svuj v kaZde, distriktni schuzi zastupovati. Jedna se hlavne o to, aby kaaly tad vyslal do distriktni schuze aspori jednoho Mena od sveho radu, tak aby vS'echny rady V distriktu podilely se na jednani. TentYZ zpUsob mohl by byti prijat u vSech radii kaldeho distriktu, aby distriktni delegat byl zvolen ve vYroCni schfizi. Kde rad chtel by meniti sve distriktni zastupce, men by takovi zastupci voleni bYti nekolik mesica predem, aby kaZdY delegat yedel yeas, co bude jeho novinnosti.

Az budete problieti mesicni zpritvu nateho vrchnino UCetniho, po ySimnete si, kolik penez se prijme do fondu Nemocenskeho odboru a kolik se vyplati na ne-mocenskou podporu. Platt se do Nemocenskeho odboru etytikrat roene, cot 0-vkin se protahuje celYch dvanact mesicn, ate bude treba ziskati dalS1 'deny, nejmene pet set od kaale tridy, aby Nemocensky odbor mohl zdarne pokraCovati.

Zanedbavame veci, ktere bychom pro viastni dobro meli hodne vice podporovati.

MCI bych se neehat pripojistit, s/Y§ite obeas nektereho elena. Zeptate se ho za rok, zdali si pribral Zivotni pojiSteni, a odpovi y am, ze pored to odklada, ale Ze jednou snad se It tomu dostane. TentYZ hen koupi si novY automobil a ihned si jej necha pojistit na plriou cenu. Nenajdete eloveka, ktery by met s y uj drahY lautomobil pojiAte.nY jen na sto nebo aby na residenci za dvacet tisk: si vzal jell par set pojiM.eni. Kdyby nekdo mel aparat, kterV by mu vyrabel $300 mesiene, $3,600 roene, jiste by si vypoeital, kolik takovY stroj vyrobi mu novYch pen & s za 10 nebo za 20 rokti. A jiste by si nechal takovy uZiteenY aparat pojistiti proti moZ"ne ztrate. Piece vynalez, kterY

Ve stfedu, due 26. listopadu 1951 prinese za 20 rokii nejakych 70 tisic dolard, je velice cenna vec. Ten oude treba miti pojiitenY pro ptipad nehody. Kolik naiich elent maji s ynj ZivY stroj na peniZe pojiitenY na $70.000? Nebo jen na $50,000? Nebo jen na $10,000? Je eas, aby ten penize vyrabejlei aparat byl lepe zajitten.

Pige jeden Glen, ze meli slavnost, ale nedostavil se nikdo, kdo by k nim promluvil v zajmu Jednoty. Wady ani teenik nepornitZe. Ptikladne, redaktor mluvil pti dvou distriktnich schtlzich a daval prime pokyny, co by v tech schuzich se melo vykonat. Posluchaei zatleskali, ale nebylo ani jednoho, kterY by vstal a dal nejakY navrh die pokynu. 0 tYden pozdeji opakovalo se -iota. Trochu pctlesku -- a jinak nikdo stojatou vodou nezamichal. Proto at' se onen dopisovatel nemrzi. Loin byl tam sla ynostnim eeskYm teenikem neelen, kterY o Jednote nic nerekl, a rad piece lope prospiva net tam, kde se naluvi jen v zajmu Jednoty.

Tedy ne slova od jinYch, ale skutky domacich Clem, co dela, kaZdy rad rust. A jeho tad roste.

V patek odpoledne minoleho tYdne, 21. listopadu, ukoneeno bylo v San Antoniu ttidenni zasedani Texaskeho bratrskeho kongresu. Za zminku stoji, Ze toto bylo jiZ dvaapadesate zasedani, nebo 'Teen째 jinYm slovy, Texasky bratrskY kongres schazel se jiZ 51 rokft a to kaZdl' rok, aby rokovano bylo o bratrskem pojitt'ovani.

Za zminku ten stoji, Ze jeite pted nekolika lety nevedeli jsme nic ani o Narodnim bratrskem kongresu, ani o Texaskem bratrskem kongresu. Ve sta,novaeh meli jsme, ze operujeme na fimrtni tabulce vypracovane Ntirodnim bratrskYm kongresem, ale nemell jsme zadnou jasnou pfedstavu, co to viechno znamend. AZ ph sjezdu v Corpus Christi delegati odhlasovan, abychom se stall eleny Narodniho bratrskeho kongresu, cot ptipravilo naiemu spolku cestu do mistniho statniho kongresu.

Jako Narodni bratrskY kongres je asociace bratrskYch a sesterskYch podpfunYch jednot operujicich v Soustati, rovneZ tak je Texasky bratrsky kongres sclruZenlin podptirnYch jednot ye status Dnes do Texaskeho bratrskeho kongresu path jedenadvacet jednot. Bylo jich 22, ale jedna z nich prorneniia se na yzajemnou pojitrujici spoleenost. Z techto 21 spolkil jsou pouze tri jednoty, ktere maji size hlavni fitadovny v Texasu, Sons of Herman, Praetorians a SPJST. Ostatni spolky maji sve hlavni kancelate v nekterem jinem statu, ale Ze provadeji obchod v Texasu, maji zde mnoho svYch elenft, mohou se prihlasiti do sdruteni statniho, aby jejich statni vedoue,i, distriktni fiteclnici a aktivni elenove rnohli brati podil na. rokovani v ohledu ni bratrske ptisobnosti. Prikladne spolek

VtSTNilt WEST, TEXAS Woodmen of the World ma svou hlavni kancelat v Omaze, ale operuji take v Texasu, kde maji kolem 75.000 Menu. Jsou tedy zastoupeni v Texaskem kongresu, maji psalm na 20 delegate do statniho sdruZeni. Podobne bratrskY spolek Zapadni C' esko-Bratrska Jednota operuje Texasu, mall pies 1,500 Ilene v Texasu a jsou opravneni na 4 delegaty. Nate Jednota je opravnena na 16 delegatft do statniho kongresu. Do Narodniho kongresu jsou opravnenYmi delegaty jen hlavni firednici spolku, pravni radci, vrchni lekati a redaktori spolku. U nekterycla jednot nejsou ani pravni radci, ani lekaii, ani redaktoti vYkonnYmi redniky, ale stejne vypomahaji formulovati smernice spolku. Proto jsou do zasedani narodniho telesa ptiputteni jako delegati. Do statniho kongresu mohou bYti volitelni nebo ustanoveni za delegaty nejen hlavni Utednicis ale take kterYkoll y jiny elen spolku.

Az dosud nemeli jsme ninoho zajmu a porozumeni pro bratrske kongresy, at' narodni nebo statni. Teprve v poslednich tti letech-zadal jsem si viimati einnOsti, jakou kongresy vyvijeji a zaeal jsem tom psati, napred v easti anglicke, pozdeji i v Ceske. Pied dvema lety, kdyZ" byl statni bratrskY kongres v Dallas, chtel jsem bYti ptitomen, ale pottovni sluZba mi zajezd znemoZnila. Poslal jsem do kongresu svou manZelku jako navitevnici a pozorovatelku, na sve vlastnl utraty, any mi ptinesla Zadane informace.

Dle jeji zpravy zastoupeni naieho stva pri zasedani bylo hodne chudobne, malo rcpresentujici. Vyptavela mi, Ze brats Chupick mel tam velice peknou fee pied shronaoldenim jinYch fraternalistt, ;ale nentel tam Zadria zastoupeni, Zaclnou poclporu, Zadnou ukazku natich vlastnich (Jena Tenkrat vedl jsem pouze anglickou Cast Vestniku, kde jsem zaeal psati, jak se stale stranime styku s jinYmi fraternalisty, jak si tim sami sobe tkodime, a jak bychorn melt seznamiti se a dati jinYm poznati nail praci. Uminil jsem si, ze sam pojedu na zasedani bratrskeho kongresu do Corpus Christi, treba na sve fitraty.

Pied rokem v Corpus Christi bylo nage vystoupeni pted texaskYmi fra.ternalisty mnohem . lepti, Poprve v padesati leteCh iii jsme mezi druhe v poetu trochu. representadnim. Bylo tarn osm nasich dclegatu a asi stejne amoZstvi navAtevnikil.

KdyZ bylo vyvolano jmeno nail organisace, vstalo nas skoro dvacet. Vyjimalo se to dosti pekne na to nail organisaci, jejiZ jmeno a inicialky byly promlieny s jakousi pochybnosti a polouraZlivYmi Zesty. Lee vystoupeni Sokola, pak nage dosti eetna representace, proslov natelao bratra predsedy a pak lepsi jistota v natern vystupovani, to vie ptineslo nam pozdCji dividendy, ktere my jsme snarl

.Strand 3 dosud ani spravne neocenili. Jcdnoduie zacali jsrne bYti znaJnYmi, rovnYrni jinYm ptestalo se na rids pohliZet jako na cizince mezi fraternalisty.

Letoti zajezd bratra Marka a redaktora do Narodniho bratrskeho kongresu postavil nail SPJST do svetla vefejnosti.

Patrili jsme do to male hrstky delegatn. z Texasu, kteri se prieinili, aby se priiti zasedani narodniho telesa dostalo do Texasu. Zaealo se s nami jc,dnati jako se spo, lupracovniky, kteri dovedou pracovat, KaZdY 'Cloy& ma rad uznani. Take kaZdY delegat je rad, kdyZ spolek, ktery je jim zastupovanY, dostane uznani. 'rein째 mils proto, kclyZ jine texaske bratrske organisace piisly za nami a ptali se: "PonitZete nam? Jste ochotni vypomoci, vaii tednici a vail elenove?" Prijeli jsme z Bostonu s novYmi poznatky, s novYmi povinnostmi a take s nove navazanYmi styky. Jell jsme dome z Bostonu S pevnYm ptedsevzetim, Ze na letoinian statnina zasedani musime dociliti pinalao zastoupeni, abychom druhYm jecinotam podali dukaz, ze nejsme zaostalYrni, jsme Zivou bratrskou organisaci, Ze jsme tretim nejsilnejilm bratrskYrn spolkern v Texasu.

V minute schazi 1Ilavni tliiiadovny vyvolana byla ota.zka, zastupcti do Texaskeho bratrskeho kongresu a poladani byli viichni hlavni firednici (cot znarnena reditelei, aby se prilalasili, komu bylo by rnoZnn .se statniho kongresu zdeastniti.

Vyrizeni podrobnosti bylo ponechano bratru Chupickovi, kterY je jednim, z ditelfi Texaskeho bratrskeho kongresu.

Letos naie zastoupeni bylo v pine mite, jak jsrne si ptali. Brats Chupick rozeslal dotaznik na hlavni firedniky, shledano, Ze innohY z nich nemohl ,jett do San Antonia, vyzvani byll elenova, kteri melt opravdovY zajem.

Mill etenati Vestniku: Dnes je Den primeri, vYrooi dne, kdy pied 34 lety ukoneila prvni svetova vat,ka. Jak ten eas utika. Zda se mire, jakciby to bylo veera, kdy jsme dostali zpravu, ae je konec stra..ine valce. Prvni tram to "vinioval" nakladni vlak, ktery del od Shiner. Piit'alu mel ote ytenou na pinou paru, myslim od Shiner as do Moulton, a snarl dale ad do Flatonie. Bylo to slyiet do vzclalenosti mnoha mil. Lide se sbihali a prijiadeli do mesta ze viech stran. Skoly propustily ditky. Viechny obchody v celem meste zavrely a po ulicich .se skolnimi ditky a Often paraclovali, zpivali, plakali radosti, strileli rachejtle, z ruenic, z revolveru a z rfiznYch zbrani, kdo co mel. Cele odpoledne oslavovali a se radovali, ze jsme kaisera zmohlL a ae je konec straine valce.

My starii nikdy nezapomeneme na ten den. Ti mladsi zapominaji, i nekteri starkteri nemeli nikoho ve valce, pomalu zapominaji. Dnes naie prani je, aby to zase co nejdrive v Koreji skoneilo, aby ptestalo to proleTani krve, zabijeni nasich hochy .jinYch, aby zase zavladnul mir na celem svete. Druha svetova valka pro ads a naie hochy jeite neskoneila.

DruhY den, totiZ v patek, jsme byly si prohlednout mesto Portland, pak na weer pani Beevarova, vYborna Ceska kuclaarka, uchystala hostinu, kde ani treSnova, bublanina nechybela. Prijely jejich deti a prattle; stul byl pin dobreho jidla, bylo videt, kaZdY si pochvaloval jak chutnala tak upravena jidla jak pi. Beevarova dovede, komu by nechutnaly?

V sobotu rano nas pi. Beevarova a dce ry Sarka a Zorka vzaly do Hubbard, Ore. k rodine p. Fr. Nemce.

Krasna krajina, mime podnebi, v torn okoli videt i hodne clamele, kteremu se tarn velice dari.

Dlouho jsme se v Hubbard rkzdrZovaly, eas nedovoloval. Na 째bed jsme byly zpatky v Portland. Po obede jsme jely do Sea Side k rodine p. a pi. NeradovYch. Millie, (pani Neradova) je dcera manZeltt BedvarovYch. Sea Side je 85 mil na zapa,d od Portland, vYletni misto pri moii.

Pak nas vzali zpatky jiZ naveeer, ale jeSte nam ukazali mnoho krasnYch mist ze statu Oregon.

KdyZ dokonaili promitani tech obrazkti, bylo jiZ 8 hodin a my mely v 10 hodin sedat na vlak, tak jsme se rozloueily a podekovaly rodine Beevarove, Neradove a Harborove za ty tri krasne dny, ktere jsme u inch ztravily. Pi. Beevarova a dcera Sarka nas vzaly na vlak, daly sbohem s pranim, le se zase nekdy uvidime. Hedvika a ja, sedly na vlak, kterY nas unaSel zpatky do San Francisco. Ale dlouho jsme nemohly usnouti. Vzpominaly a libovaly si, jak jsme byly St'astny, le jsme mohly tu cestu delat spoleene, navStivit pratele, s irimi si pobesedovat a pri torn tolik zajimavosti uvidet.

Ja se nedostala na vlak al ye etvrtek.

Zrovna jsem si pomyslila, jestli se ten muj nachlad zhork, neb na nedeli a pondeli deti mely jft" celY program hotovY, na kterY jsem se velice teSila, ale nachlad se nezlaor gil, al ye sti'edu musela jsem zustat dorna, ye etvrtek ul zase bylo dobre. V San Diego v Balboa Park maji House of Pacific Relation, kterY se sklada z 22 rilznYch narodti.

KaZdY narod tam ma svou malou chatu, kde maji narodni a historicke sbirky na ukazku, v nekterYch i narodni jidla prodavaji. V letni dobe kahlY ten narod vyhrazenou jednu nedeli, na ktery den onen jisty narod porada odpoledne program. Ja mela to gtesti, ze pave tu nedeli co jsem tarn byla, byl Gesky den s peknYm programern.

Nejvice potlesku sklidili kdyZ taneili phi hudbe "Sla Nanynka do zeli". Po ukoneeni programu podavali koldee a kavu. Vedela jsem, ze jsou tam deli, ale ze jich je tolik a ze k sobe tak lnou, to mne ptekvapilo. TITO nedeli kaN:ly mesic v jiste sini maji spoleenY 째bed a celodenni za.bavu.

Po programu v Balboa Park jely jsme k moii, kde meli Water Skiing Tournament. Na pohled je to peknY sport, ale take hodne nebezpednY.

VESTNIK --- WEST, TEXAS Dnes vim, ae tento agent byl rnYm zachrancem.

Bratti a sestry, kteti je gte nemate takovou pojistku proti onemocneni, nenechavejte takoveho agenta odejit s nepoiizenou od vatich dveii, neeekejte, at vas zkugenost pouei.

Nate nemocenska ua tolik rokri tivoti a nebude to lepsi, dokud tarn nebudeme vgichni pattit, zvlatte rnlade Clenstvo.

V nas starch elenech uz neni tadna budoucnost. Ale u nas to jde vie tak hrozne pomalu. DS. to je gte 1-m-who mluveni a povzbutovani, netli dospejeme k lepgi bratrske cifistojnosti.

Jestli jsem tomu dobie rczumela, z na gi fdadovny kkatdYm rokem bude pHspevek na fitulnu $250.00. To je ale fattyhodna, suma pro 25 tisic elenn! Nu, za nektere stoleti nee° z toho bude. Kdo podal tento navrh na sjezdu, uhodil to potacine ides kapsu. Bylo by to bYvalo slugnej gi, kdyby se to bylo odlotilo, at bude Utadovna postavena a vyplacena, netli z toho udelat takovou tebrotu. Jak neni porozumeni pro nem tak je to hrozne take a nemotne.

KDO JSOU NAZI PikiBUZNi? Nadel jsem male kniZeeky, zalokne a zapomenute. 1VIoje matka, dokud Zila, tavala je a meta je rada. Aikavala, ae etetii jich pomahalo ji ptekonati neptiznive vlivy a okolnosti a poznavati radost a krasu kolem sebe. Dvacet let leZely kniZeeky prachem pokryte. Uvetejtiuji dva tti vYtiatky. Budou-li se elenatam Vestniku zamlouvati, molar otisknouti vice. -Redaktor, Muz nebo Zena, kteti se yam nejvice podobaji vkusem, pohnutkami a zpftsobem myaleni a k nimZ se citite nejvice vabeni, nemusi byti vaaim bratrern, sestrou, bratrancem nebo vtibec telesnym Ptibuzn9m. Ale taci lide jsou vpravde vaaimi blizkYmi ptibuzitYmi. Vaal bratti a sestry nemusi se varn vubec podobati duai, vkusem a naklonnosti.

St9kate se s nimi, ponevadZ jsou eleny vaSi rodiny, ale kdybyste jich neznali jako bratry, nebo sestry, nebo jine ptibuzne, nebo kdybyste jinde videli jejich naprostou protfvu v povaze, nechteli byste se s nimi vabec stYkati.

Telesne nebo krevni ptibuzenstvi ma velmi malo vlivu na ptibuzenstvi skuteene nebo duaevni. Jest ovaem mo'Zno, ae bratr nebo sestra, nebo otec, nebo matka mute bYti velmi blizkym vaalm spojencem v myalenkach i sympatii. Ale naopak jest zase moano, ae yak matka nebo otec, nebo bratr, nebo sestra, jest yam velmi vzdalena mySlenkami i sympatii a ae mute aiti v zati nebo ovzduai myalenek, kterd jest vast naprosto nepodbbna.

NemUete Mti ani zdrave, ani ptijemne, neaijete-li s lidmi, jejichZ myalenkove ovzdual (ktere jest doslovne jejich v9ronem), neni podobne vaaemu. Telesne buzenstvo mute takove ovzdual vytvotiti, ale nemusi. Nut'te mute hmotne pracw jiciho, jehoZ myalenky se jen malo povznaaeji nad jidlo a piti a denni okruh prace, aby nil vYluene ye spoleenosti umelcil a filosofft a aby se nestYkal s nik9m sveho druhu a tadu myalenek, a ndlada onoho mute bude za kratko stisnena a jeho zdraizi bude trpeti. Tent zakon je v einnosti, kdyZ je vyaai duke nucena k trvale druZnosti s duaemi Takove made bYti tvoje postaveni mezi krevnimi ptibuzia9mi.

Deti Ziji, vyvijeji se a obveseluji se myalenkov9m ovzduaim, ktere vyzatuje z jinYch deti, jeZ si s nimi hraji. Oddelte je naprosto od detske spoleenosti a ony poklesnou na duclau i na tele. Jako deti jste Mil z Leto detske atmosfery, to jest, aiit jste v duchovnim ptibuzenstvi detstvi.' A kdyZ jste, se divali na nejakou myalenkovou v9Zivu pti jste ji a take jste ji svYm spoluhrdeam vraceli.

Ted' se snad divite, prof v sobe nemtZete

(Napsal Prentice Mulford) probuditi onech starch pocita a veselosti, jeZ vzchazela bud' ye spoleenostl deti, anebo mlaclee vabec. Dfivodem toho jest okolnost, ae vas duch vyZaduje jinou alenkovou stravu nebo ovaduai, jakou yam mute dati jen duk jina, bezpochyby duae' vyaaiho tadu. KdyZ se yam ji dostane, bude y am ubihati eas tak rychle a ptijemne, jako se to delo ye spoleenosti vaaich druhu v prv9ch dobach telesneho Zivota.

Ti, kteti yam mohou dodati tuto vyaai duchovni stravu, jsou vaaimi skuteenYmi ptibuznYmi. Ale ` ta.kove ptibuzenstvi nemitZe existovati, jestliZe jim na oplatku nemakte skYtati tentYz druh myalenek.

Skuteeni nebo duchovni ptibuzni ranohYch obchodnikft, mechanikfi, jako'2 i lidi jineho zamestnani, jsou jejich spolubratti, obchodnici, mechanikove nebo lide stejneho povolani. Dokazuji to svYm Mvotem. Citi se vice doma u tech, jejich‘Z zamestnani se shoduje s jejich ilea na mistech; ktera jsou jejich vlastnim domovem a kam odchazeji k jicIM a spani kde travi 'oast° nudnou nedeli, touMce, aby jia ptiSel pondelek a vitanejacivot v krame, anebo y e stanku na trhu. Tam jsou totiZ mezi sv9mi pravYmi ptibuznY mi a tam jsou doslovne syceni a podnecovani myalenkovym ovzdualm, jeZ jim je dodavano temito ptibuznYmi, kterYm tuto duchovni potravu zase vraceji.

KaZdY fad duae nebo vlastnost myalenkova musi se spojovati se souvztaZnou dual nebo myalenkovou vlastnosti — jinak trpi. Ale "krevni ptibuzenstvo", jest jen v nepatrnem spojeni,s takovYmto dodavanim myalenek ureiteho druhu.

Pouta telesneho ptiblizenstvi rodi ohromne mnoho bezdeeneho tyranstvi.

Kdy2 , deti vyrostly, umist'uji svoje matky nebo otce ye svych myslich do takoveho Zivotniho okruhu nebo Zivotni metody, kam jejich rodiee nenaleZeji nebo naleZeti nechteji. A • pak vznikne, ae malokdy je vyslovena, tato mySlenka: "Matka starne, aby nosila aaty jasn9ch barev.

Must se oblekati sttizlive." "Bylo by Poaetile, aby se matka (je-li vdovou) znovu provdala," tento nazor vznikne velmi easto z peneZnich dfivodti. — "Matka se ovaem nechce saeastniti naaich zabav a proto muse zastati doma a oaettovati deti." Anebo: "Test eas, aby se otec vzdal obchodu," anebo: "Otcav napad, 6Zeniti se znovu, jest sineanY." 2adna myalenka neni tak jemna. ye ‘ svem pfiSobeni a neni tak mocna, vyvinouti v9sledky k dobru, nebo zlu, neZ stale vysilani myalenek z duke jedine, nebo z nekolika spojenYch na jednu osobu, aby vzniklo nee° Zadouciho a at' se to deje

vedome a rozumne nebo slepe: pfisObi tato sila stejne.

TrvalY priliv takovYchto myalenek, vychazejici tteba ze tti nebo etyi . dual, jima byla "matka" jenom nastrojem, aby jim dodala nova tela, a neustale tizenY na tuto "matku", jest velice mocnou silou, ktera ji tidi a udrZuje ptesne tarn, lute ji chteji (let miti a kde jest jim nejpiihodnejSi. VeakerY obyeejnY proud niyalenek plyne take nakonec k tomuto smeru.

"Matka", tika tento nevysloven9' cit,"musi ovaem ji2 starnouti, a musi se poznenahlu vzdatl Zivota einneho a veselejaiho musi se take uchYliti do nejakeho koutku v dome, aby se tam ptidruZila k jinYin odlo2enYm a nad hrobem se chylicim radiant-I a milk ji bYti pouaito jako vrchin oaettovatelky v dobe nemoci nebo jine rodinne nesnaze." Vlivem teto mySlenkoy e oinnosti se stava, ae mnoho matek ztraci kaZdou vYsadu osobni a 2e koneene eini ptesne to, co deti chteji.

MoZna, ae zde nekdo poznamena, nebo ze si pomysli: "Ale nemam snad jiti ke sve matce nebo k jinemu bIlzkemu ptibuznemu se svYmi starostmi a zkouakami, abych obdrZel pomoc,i, jak jsem byl vadycky navyklY? Nemaji snad elenove me rodiny ptede vaemi jin9mi lidmi pomahati rune v dobach potteby?"

Zajiste, jestli2e matka nebo kdokoliv jinY z vaaeho telesneho ptibuzenstva to eini rad a starostlive. Zajiste, jestae takova sluZba od ptibuzneho jde opravdu ze srdce a neni-li vynucena citem, kter9 nekdy ma tento nevyslovenY tvar: "Myslim, ae to musim uciniti, ponevada je to maj bratr nebo syn, nebo jiny ptibuz.nY, kterY o to Zada."

KterY o to -add? Mnoho a mnoho jest sluZeb, o nea Zadame bezcleene -- jest jich vice, nea o ktere pl:Aadame v techto padech vYslovne. Btemena jsou ukladana no, ptibuzne proste proto, ze jsou ptibuzpodpisovani nYmi. Penelite darky smenek, a podobrie veci, se stavaji v stern smyslu z ptibuzenske syrnpatie.

Podpora, strava, ptistteai, vydrZovo.ni, to vae jest oeekavano od ptibuznYch, kdyZ takove oCekavani dare jest spike vydira-nim.

Opravdove dary jsou vklycky ptekvapenim. Nikdo pfekvapeni neodekaval, nebot' oeekavani nioi pfekvapeni.

Ptibuzni navatevuji a usadi se u jinYch ptibuznYch proste proto, ae to jsou pHbuzni. A nesmirna spousta nespokojenYch, zamraoen9ch, ale nevysloven9ch myalenek vychazi vZdycky z duAi, kdyt" ptibuzni poiAivaji vzajenme sv9ch doma. aby uspotili fifty v hotelu.

Van Corlear byl xnynheerem Hetmanem stejne 'zklaman, jako Heiman jim.

Utekl se k Robertavi, aby si mu postaoval. Ukazal by mu kapitna Partridge?

Propichne ho jako motYla. Uklidnil se vSak brzo a nadaval na bostonskY eaj — je to nejake pitt pro mule? To pti hranieich je veseleji. Palenky, viva takeho piva je tam al` al.

Robert se z pOodtku shovivave usmival, jako' pied nim Heiman. Potom vS.ak zbystill sluch. A na konec si na panovi vyladal dva dny volna.

Heiman se zatim pripravoyal na dalsehtlzi Velke Rady.

ROWENA'S "COUNTRY DOCTOR" It was during the Youth Section Meeting, held by the Texas Fraternal Congress in San Antonio last week that one of the speakers mentioned that "a little town not far from San Angelo, named Rowena, paid a tribute to the doctor who has served the town for almost forty years." The speaker did not name the doctor, but I well guessed who the doctor was.

After the session, I went to see the speaker and asked him for the details.

He pulled out a clipping from the San An, gelo newspaper and showed it to me. I burrowed the clipping long enough to copy it and I gladly give it to the readers of the Vestnik. Here is the clipping: ROWENA PAYS TRIBUTE TO "COUNTRY DOCTOR." Rowena, Nov. 13. — This town paid an installment Thursday night on a debt to the "country doctor" who has served Rowena and the surrounding countryside for almost 40 years.

A long line of speakers saluted the physician, Dr. John J. Schiller, and each made it clear that all they could do would not begin to pay ,back the man who had guarded the health of the community for so many years.

Dr: Schiller, 75, received a plaque and citation from the local chapter of Woodmen of the World in a ceremony attended by some 350 persons at the ODI-TS Hall here.

Almost a third of the crowd stood when a speaker asked how many in the assemblage has been delivered by Dr. Schiller. He estimated he has delivered 1,400 babies since he came here in 1913.

Practically the entire crowd stood when a speaker asked how many had benefitted at any time from the doctor's services.

Joe G. Dierschke was master of ceremonies.

Leo Multer spoke for Sons of Hermann On meeting people: -Do not worry about: what people are thinking about you for they arc not thinking about you. They are wondering what you are thinking aboub- them.

• A trainee from Brooklyn came runing into the barracks at Ft. Sam Houston holding a big snake. "Cheeze, guys, lock-a-de woim I caught!" he exclaimed.

"That ain't a worm, that's a snake," commented a buddy. "You ain't never seen a worm that big, have you?" "No," was a thoughtful reply, "But I ain't never been in Texas before, either."

EVERYDAY LEGAL PROBLEMS Most lawyers and judges are appalled at the average person's lack of legal knowledge. Naturally, no once expects you to know all the laws, by-laws, and decisions that line the bookshelves of a lawyers office. But some are important.

A few basic questions about law have been gathered below. Use these facts as a guide to your legal problems. If in doubt, call a lawyer. One cardinal law to remember about contracts of any type is the following: "Read Before You Sign and Keep a Copy."

Practically every business transaction involves a contract in. some form â&#x20AC;&#x201D; oral or written, expressed or implied. A contract is a meeting of the minds of persons in agreement to do certain things.

It is, in general, an agreement in which two or more parties bind themselves to do or not do some act, and each acquires a right to what the other promises.

If a contract is entered into under "pressure" or on threat of bodily harm, is it binding?

No, but it would be necessary to prove to the satisfaction of a court that you were restrained from exercising your normal judgment or free will. The burden of proving that rests upon you.

Is a contract binding on a minor?

No, not if the minor chooses to repudiate it. In this respect, any one who makes a contract with a minor does so at his own risk.

Is a contract made with a minor binding on that person when he becomes an adult?

With a few exceptions the minor, upon becoming of age, may repudiate or affirm a contract made when he was a minor. Ordinarily, if a minor does nothing to repudiate a contract promptly on becoming of age, he thereby affirms it without any action on his part.

Is a written contract always identified by a heading and the word "contract"?

No, and it is not necessary for a written contract or agreement to be so labeled in order to be binding. Contracts can be evidenced by receipts, sales slips, guarantees, applications, payment of money or a deposit, questionnaires, etc.

What types of contracts must ordinarily be in writing?

Usually, the types of contracts which must be in writing include contracts involving large sums of money; contracts for the purchase of real estate; conditional sales contracts; contracts which require more than one year for performance; promises to pay the debts of another; and contracts made in connection with settling estates.

If a person signs a written contract,

Condensed from a BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU Booklet can he later claim that there were other provisions or promises agreed to but not written in the contract which should be enforced?

In most cases, no. The parties are presumed to have written everything down that was agreed upon., However, there are many exceptions and circumstances under which the oral promises or provisions can be proven and enforced, such as when they constitute fraud or if the meaning of the written contract is unclear without them.

Is a contrast ordinarily binding when it is signed in blank and the pertinent facts are inserted later?

If the pertinent facts agreed to by you are inserted, the contract is binding. If incorrect facts and promises or provisions are inserted, you will not be held liable if you can convince a judge or jury that this is the case. Why take this chance? Have contracts completely filled in before you sign them.

If you sign a contract simply to get rid of a persistent salesman, is, it binding?

Yes, the written contract is evidence of your understanding. You cannot break it.

If you misunderstand part of a contract, is it binding?

Ordinarily, yes. The written contract is evidence of understanding-and in most cases there is no reason why its terms should not be carried out. If, however, you can prove that the other party used fraud to purposely mislead you, then you may not 'be bound.

Is it possible to change a contract after it has once been signed?

This is possible only when your proposed changes are mutually agreed upon by all the contracting parties.

Is the fact that a contract is "tricky" any argument for claiming it invalid or voidable?

Yes, but whether it may be voided or set aside depends upon a court's judgment as to whether fraud is involved.

Is a guarantee a guarantee of satisfaction or your money back?

Not necessarily.. This depends upon the specific terms of the guarantee. It is of extreme importance to know and understand the tern's and limitations of all types of guarantees. â&#x20AC;˘ Are so-called "buy-back" contracts an effective protection for investors?

No. Like a money-back guarantee, a boy-back contract is only as good as the integrity and financial capacity of the one who makes it.

What is a conditional sale contract?

The conditional sale contract is a type of contract generally used in connection with selling goods on the time payment plan. Mainly, it provides that the seller gives the buyer possession of the goods on the condition that the buyer shall pay for them with certain agreed installments, title to the goods remaining with the seller until the last payment has been made. Among provisions serving to protect the seller in conditional sale contracts is usually a stipulation thatâ&#x20AC;&#x17E; if the buyer fails to make any payment when due, the seller may claim the entire balance as immediately due and payable; or repossesses the goods, and, in many cases sue for the amount of the sales price not yet paid, minus the amount of money the seller obtains when he repossesses the goods and sells them.

What is a chattel mortgage?

This is a paper usually signed by a person who borrows money or buys "on time," by which he transfers title to personal property as security for the amount owed. "Personal property" includes such things as automobiles, radios, refrigerators, household goods, and the like.

What is a note?

A promisory note is a written promise to pay a definite sum of money to a particular person on a given date. When your borrow money you sign and deliver a note to the baftk, loan company, or perhaps a friend. A note may be either negotiable or non-negotiable. If negotiable, it will contain a promise to pay to "the order of" a certain person or persons, while if it is non-negotiable it will contain only a promise to pay a Specified person and not also "to his order". If you become involved in a transactions requiring an analysis of your rights in connection with a promisory note, you should consult a lawyer.

If, after signing an installment contract, you decide to pay up the entire balance in one lump sum, are you entitled to an adjustment on the finance or carrying charge?

In most installment contracts an amount is added to the price at which the article will be sold for cash, which is called the "carrying" or "finance charge." `Unless a special provision providing for an adjustment of this charge is contained in the contract or required by a state law, you are not legally entitled to an adjustment if you decide to pay up the entire balance in one lump sum. Legally, you are bound to the terms of the written agreement, but sortie business (Continued on page 23.)

V E S T N I K WEST, TEXAS

EVERYDAY LEGAL PROBLEMS (Continued from page 21.) concerns may make a concession in a case - of this kind.

If you fail to keep up payments on installment purchase, will the seller come and take the goods back?

Failure to make payments is -a breach of contract and makes the buyer liable.

The seller naturally is interested in obtaing payment for the goods he sells and as a rule, will repossess the goods only as a last resort. If the selleinis not able to sell the repossessed goods for as much as the buyer still owes him, the installment contract sometimes makes it possible for the seller to obtain a judgment against the buyer for the amount of money the buyer still owes on the installment contract, minus the amount of money the seller obtains from the resale of the goods.

If merchandise bought on the installment plan is repossessed, is the seller ordinarily permitted to keep what payments have already been made?

Yes. The seller is ordinarily entitled to such paymants in return for use or rent of the merchandise by the buyer.

Must a store refund the purchase price if the buyer changes his mind?

If a merchant misrepresents his goods, or if the merchandise is defective, you are entitled to relief and justified in expecting satisfactory adjustment or a refund. Otherwise, you have no more legal right to expect a merchant to refund your money than the merchant has to ask you to give him back the merchandise. A promise to refund or exchange should be honored.

Must a store refund a deposit?

It is the policy of many merchants to refund or, at least, to apply the amount deposited on the purchase of another article, if the customer is dissatisfied.

A refund should be made if the deposit was made upon promise of asrefund.

Is one obliged to return, or pay for, unordered merchandise?

No. You may, for instance, receive a package of unordered, Christmas cards by mail and a notice asking that you either remit payment or return them. This does not obligate you to pay for it, unless used. In fact, after notifying the company to send for the merchandise, you may charge storage for keeping it.

If you "go on" someones else's note or if you guarantee a charge account for a friend,. are you obliged to pay the obligation if your friend does not?

Ordinarily, yes, because that is what you agree to do, when you sign as a comaker or a guarantor.

What statements made by a seller about his product are legally binding?

Generally speaking, vague and generalized statements about he quality, superiority, value of future value of a salesman's product are considered merely "sales talk." However, specific statements if important fact made about a product, such as its tested strength, chemical analysis, etc., if proven untrue, may enable the buyer to get out of his contract.

Is there a law against false advertising?

Yes, most states have laws providing penalties for false, misleading, and deceptive advertising.

Are you liable for payment for work you authorize?

Yes, you are liable for whatever the person performing the work or labor decides to charge you, unless you can prove it is an unreasonable charge. An estimate only amounts to the worker's opinion as to what your bill will come to and -does not bind him to that amount. The proper way to handle this problem is to authorize the party who is to perform the work only to do work for which he will charge no more than a specified amount and to require him to get your consent before performing additional work.

Many persons get into legal troubles because they do not consult an attorney when they should. Some see a lawyer only when they are in trouble. Some get into trouble because they fail to realize that their problems involve legal technicalities.

For these who cannot afford a private attorney, them are Legal Aid Societies in many cities engaged in furnishing legal advice on most civil matters for nominal fees, or Lawyers Reference Services who may direct clients to attorneys.

To conclude this article, it is fitting that we again emphasize a slogan all laymen should keep in mind, namely, "Read before you sign ---- Keep a Copy." Be sure you know and understand the full meaning of all terms in the contract -- before, not after you sign.

There were at least a dozen or more societies who had representatives taking part in the discussion. A youth programming committee was named. Sister Hilsher from Houston was appointed to serve on this committee and to work with the representatives of other societies. Congratulations,' Sister Hilsher. Our SPJST will greatly benefit by your appointment. You may eventually become the Youth Activities director, just as other societies have.

THEN ANOTHER MEETING followed immediately, a session of Fraternal Insurance Counselors, or let us call it more plainly, a meeting of fraternal 'organizers. A professor from Purdue University lectured for more than an hour. He brought so many good points, illustrations, explanations and plans that it would take more than one issue of the Vestnik to report everything he had said. There is a good possibility that he will teach a week's course at one of the universities in Texas for the benefit of those who are actively engaged in selling fraternal insurance. He just completed to give such a course at Purdue University where eight organizers from the Czechoslovak Societies of America had taken the course. refreshments for your enjoyment.

LETTERS SAN ANTONIO LODGE NO. 133 Ststers and Brothers: The seventh district meeting held at noresville November 16th turned out harmonious and was the, beginning of function by the district since it was established.

The officers elected - by the district delegates at the recent SPJST convention were again elected, adding treasurer thereto, so just in case the Supreme Lodge got the Xmas spirit to donate to the district treasury, Oh, ,a small sum of about $500.00 for expenses, as suggested by bro. Mieulka.

The, faces of the Supreme Lodge officers present were all in smiles, but neither nodded nor shook their heads, leaving the impression with some as much as to' say — try and get it.. The final agreement was that the district Would get help as needed.

Ill the meantime, it was agreed that the district lodges would allow $5.00 to the treasury which, I have a hunch, probably will not be ratified by all of the lodges.

As I see it from here, thinking this over' at length, the district is a function of the Supreme Lodge and any expenses incurred should be financed by headquarters. Most of the expenses probably will be for mileage to representatives Of different lodges gathered at the district meeting as well as expenses of the program committee.

Those elected on the program committee were as follows: Sisters, Veroda, Skidmore, Texas; Janda, Sinton; HranickY, Orange, Grove, and bros. Emil Mieulka, Fioresville; S. C. Bundil SanAntonio; Frank Satcky, Corpus Christi.

The committee In turn elected sister Veroda as chairman, and sister Janea as secretary. They will work with the exeeutive committee.

President Marek gave cut with a fine p eech outlining the purpose of the meeting and was followed by bro. Koliha who emphatically denied that his name is spelled other than K-o-l-i-h-a, not Koliba, Kobyla or similar.

The next district meeting will be held next spring at Um& Community near Beevile and. Skidmore in school house where Lodge No. 26 holds its meetings.

This is nearer to center of the district.

Bro. Studnicny, I was amazed at the fine picture you portrayed of your visit to San Antonio and the picture as you saw it of the city itself. It takes a good writer to describe what one feels and sees in an interesting way. So this bouquet to you, but must not forget to pass

Other drugs are also being tested for their value with streptomycin.

Rehabilitation is a part of the treatT ment of the tuberculous. It should begin at the time of diagnosis and continue until the discharged patient has becOme reabsorbed in , the community. Such services are usually supplied by persons trained in occupational therapy, -voca= tional guidance, and medical social work.

Immunization The most promising immunizing agent against tuberculosis known today is BCG (Bacillus of Calmette and Guerin).

This is a vaccine made from a strain ,of live bovine tubercle bacilli which has been cultured and re-cultured until it has lost its virulence. BCG appears to offer some protection against tuberculosis. but the extent of that protection is not known. Further studies are necessary to determine more exactly the true value of BCG. The Campaign Against Tuberculosis The National Tuberculosis Association was organized in June, 1904, - and launched a nationwide offensive against tuberculosis, which at that time was annually killing 194 of every 100,000 persons in the country.

Since 1904, voluntary tuberculosis as sociation_s have been organized en a statewide basis in every state of the Union and also in the District of Columbia, Alaska, the Canal Zone, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico,, and, within the states, on a community or county basis, until today there are 3,000 associations a ffiliated with the NTA. The associations are fighting tuberculosis on four broad fronts: 1. Education — Getting true facts about tuberculosis and its prevention to large groups of people.

2. CaSe Finding -- searching out tuberculosis wherever it is and seeing that treatment is provided for persons with active disease.

3. Rehabilitation --- Helping the. tuberculosis patient adjust to his changed condition and prepare for useful living when his disease is arrested., 4. Medical Research — Aiding quail,fled investigators, through annual grants, in their continuous search for more kno4edge about tuberculosis.

Grants are aiding 26 investigators this year and a number of teaching and research fellowships is being supported.
