J-T certificate fail to apply for the permanent type of insurance before or when they reach the age required to convert the temporary protection into a permanent one. It the opinion of our actuary, we shou l d have not 816 J-T certificates but twice or three times that number. It means ar:L'omatically 'more young members in the future.

AS MUCH AS THE NEW SCALED benefits may be far better than what we used to have, it is not a complete satisfaction to the writer who have been pleading for higher benefits in the J-T class. It is my honest belief that the scaled benefits in the J-T class should be intirely eliminated, and that full amount of death benefits should be payable on the juvenile certificates J-T, except in the first six months when the certificate is issued at age under six months. With' the exception of the first six months of an infant, when the death rate among the infants is much higher, the death benefits should be paid in full regardless of the age of the member at death. It is my honest opinion that our actuary would give his approval to eliminate the scaling of the death benefits. The J-T class is being handled separately, and the solvency is so high that. the supreme officers are almost embarrassed to mention it. If it can be done, why do we have to wait again twelve and fourteen years to make additional improvements? Are we so set in our thinking that it takes another generation to remove the cobwebs?

THERE IS ANOTHER BENEFIT IMprovement which the writer would like to see in the SPJST. We have a remission of premiums to those who have beea members 35 years or more and have attained the age of 70. That provision is, actuarially taken, against the principles of life insurance. We do have surplus, and we should have surplus. But the surplus belongs to all the members, in proportion to the length of their membership in the SPJST, not according to their actual age.

The children joined hands, embracing our emblem to their bosoms and joined their elders to finish the song. Podpora, Lidskost a Bratrstvi. Dear Family — you should have been there! It was inspiring.

Another reason why our meeting was different this time We had our Charter members of the SPJST, those living within our district with us: Sisters Bilek and Prikryl were introduced and presented with a lovely yellow corsage. Sister Hnsak, also a charter member was not present, being ill. Three Sisters, our Charter Members. We honor these ladies for the stout-hearted 'courage in pioneering and contributing through the years to our SPJST growth. We honor these old people, they are dear to us.

I've yet to see white haired Bro. Snapka MISS one of our meetings. Gladness radiates from his face when he comes amongst his own.

Another reason why our meeting was different this time was the membership. When it was proposed in the afternoon meeting that our next meeting be held in October, since hot weather and harvest season would be on hand in three months, the membership protested "No, no, no, three months," they cried.

Where, but in our Third District would find such an audience. From the enthusiasm manifested it is evident that the

Three lovely ladies, gentlemen, Lentlement, — they were the center of attraction. Miss Sylvia wore a turquoise blue silk dress and her pink carnation corsage was really attractive, Miss EmsP:ene in her white dress with pink corage, and Miss Lucille was dressed in lavender with a pink corsage of carnations.
