ODESEL DOBra REDAKTOR ASE ZTRATILI JSME DOBREZ ho eeskeho redaktora, bratra 0::akara Charvata, kterY redigoval BratrskY Vestnik, organ Zapadni Cesko-Bratrske Jednoty, kteralto organisace je nejvet'Sim bratrskYm podptirnYin spolkem ye SpojenYch statech. a jejil BratrskY Vestnik vychazi jil" padesat devet ran.

0 nal:116m odchodu redaktora . Charvata doeet1 jsem se teprve v listopadovem Lisle "Hospodate". Zeinrel nahle, jako tomu bylo v pripadu redaktora Jana Hilgerta od easopisu "Hlasatel". Hilgert dopsal dopis, adresovanY mne do Narodniho bratrskeho kongresu v Clevelandu, privrel s ytti psaci stroj, pololil se na pohovku—a vice nevstal. Redaktor Charvat zesnul rano, kdy otevrel svtrj psaci stroj.

Telko se piSi nekrology—elanky o zernrelYch—s kterYmi jsme se citili duSevne a mySlenkOve zprizneni. Jsou redaktori, a jsou take jen pisrnaci. Jsou lide, kteri maji dar, le desiti slovy reknou vice nel jiny v desiti sloupcich. K tern prvnim patril zesnulY redaktor Charvat. K tern poslednejMan, povidavYm nedoukiim, patril jsem sam.

Snalil jsem se napodobiti, snail jsem se priaeiti od jinYch redaktort, hlavne ad Otakara Charvata. On pracoval na jednem Vestniku. Ma snaha byla, abych zlepAil druhy, ten nos. On mel vYhodu, le mel znamenite 'Ceske §koly, kterYch jsem nernel, nebo;,' vkchna ma studia byla v Americe a svou nedostateenost v CeStine jsem stale pocit'oval. Bratr Charvat byl lurnalistou z povolani. Pracoval u eeskYch novin v St. Louis, v Oklahome, u Pokroku Zapadu, Nove Doby a Narodniho Pokroku v Omaze, byl spoluredaktorem Hospodare a byl redaktorem Bratrskeho Vestniku Sestnact let. Byl jsem proti newt' pramizernYm pisalkem.

Bratr Charvat mel jeSte jinou vYho- bre promySlenYrrC hanky a mYm Skradu. Mel SirSi kruh uvedomelYch deskYch banim, jeho jistotou slohu a mou 4.2koetenartt Na severu a na zapade usadilo pacinosti, red jsem studoval jeho redakese hodrie vice CeskYch pristehovalcii, kte- ni avahy. Tak kdybych byl o pa,tnact ti si prinesli lepAi 'Skoleni ze stare via- dvacet let inladSi, snad bych ho dohosti. Bylo tarn vice lidi, kteri znali Ceskou nil. Nebo kdybych mel ad svYch fee perfektne, dovedli se vyjadrovati rt vice porozumeni pro to, le vzdelani spravne bez dialektu.

Ale kdyl naSi lide mysli,- sahcid/. Tao vYhody jsem nemel. Ba do- nouti pa slovniku je znamkou nesluSnokonce, kdyz jsem byl zjednam, abych sti. vedl anglickou Cast Vestniku, nejfetk Redaktor Charvat byl lurnalistou.

Na nastennem kalendaii, kte •Y ukazuje mesice na jednom archu papiru, mel jsem poznadeny schtize na gich. okrskit. Zahledel jsem se, de v gesti nedelich bylo Best okrskovYch schiizi. Napied okrsek sedinY mel schtizi v Robstown 23. deli Nernohl jsem se zneastniti, protode byl jsem prave nav gte you v nekterych titulnach na severu. 0 tYden pozdeji byla, schtize tretillo okrsku v Sokoloyne v Dallas, 30. za.ri.

MiaohY elen si pomysli, "Rest nedeii, Best okrsko yYch schrizi, a dohromady nic to neznamene.". Hocine zaledi na nalade, jakou si ze schtizi odneseme. Hla yne je to na rids samotnYch, jakou vahu kiademe na vSarnam bratrskYch spolku, na nage elenstvi v SPJST nebo v jine bratrske jecinoie, a take na, to, CO sami od sebe v divote deekavame.

Kdyd nekdo rekne `veprova se zelim", nebo pta se "kilt: mint sve baekory", tomu rozu.mirna kaZdy. Ale slovo demokracie je nee°, &mu kaddY rozumime jinak, die jak jsmc byli vychovani. Nagi zakladatele rozumeli slovu "demokracie" docela jinak ned jejich deli. A ta dne gni t eti gel erace tomu v gernu rozumi naprosto jinak.

Chances are that your father likes vegetables more than you do; most older people do. Young people like desserts more often than theirl seniors.

That's what they tell interviewers.

But along ewith interviews, the scientists rely on laboratories to test food preference. It's easy to examine nutritive qualities of food by chemistry, but the only test for taste is the human tongue.

So the scientists have recruited human guinea pigs to taste experimental foods. These judges don'twork like oldfashioned county fair judges of apple pie. They are carefully selected: either for all-round taste perception like the average consumer, or for some taste specialty.

Typical of these tasters is Carolyn Baldwin, a secretary in the lab. Carolyn is called on to test foods about twice a week. She has a general taste, not confined to any one specialty. For, her tests she sits in an air-conditioned booth. The walls around her are painted:: gray so they won't reflect any colors on the food. Sometimes, Carolyn says, colored lights are turned on the food so one sample won't look more attractive than the other. Carolyn is served: her food samples through a revolving door, so no kitchen smells will prejudice her.

She may get two or three samples, each dish identified by a number. Perhaps it's a test of custards. Some of the ingredients have been stored at tropic heat for a year; others in sub-zero freezers. But Carolyn knows only the numbers. She tastes each sample, then fills out a form saying just what she thinks about each one.

Records are kept of Carolyn's reac, tions and those of her fellow-tasters.

All the information goes toward perfecting better-tasting food and drink.

In the hundreds of tests the scientists have made, almost everything has been tested. They have compared the juice of Florida and California oranges.

YOU PRINT YOUR riN POSTAGE It was past five when the telephone rang.. I answered it.

"Can you bring our postage meter to your station right away and have it reset? We have a world of letters going out, and the meter is clown to the last penny."

"Solely, we can reset it, provided we have your record at this station. Who is talking, please?"

The speaker at the other end of the line identified himself.

"Sorry that I have to disappoint you, but your record is handled by the main office downtown. I regret that I can't change your meter."

All this conversation had to do with a little machine which enables you to print your own postage on your mail.

You have seen those letters that have the amount of postage printed on the envelope, and you have probably wondered how anyone can print his own stamps. Here is the story.

We shall start with a scene in the private office of a banker where the than with the idea tried to get financial backing for his idea.

The portly banker leaned back in his leather-cushioned swivel chair and stroked his enormous mustaches.

"Mr. Pitney," he solemnly intoned, "what you propose is impossible! Can't you understand that allowing private individuals to print postage directly on envelopes amounts to letting them print United States currency?"

Arthur Pitney opened his mouth, closed it, sadly gathered his papers and walked out of the office of one more prospective backer for his great idea.

He had been going through this performance over and over for many years now, ever since he had tired of licking stamps in the mail room of a wallpaper house in Chicago and had told the boss: "There's no sense to it. Why should a company which does as much mailing as we do, have to paste a stamp on every envelope? Why can't we just print the postage on each letter and pay the Post Office later?"

The boss had laughed at him. So had everyone else. After all, he was only a mail clerk who sounded exceptionally lazy. Objecting to licking stamps?

Pitney's idea today is at work in postage meters that stamps $300,000,000 worth of mail a year, 27 per cent of the entire traffic of the United States Post Office. But it might still be locked up in his head if two other people — both strangers to Pitney -- hadn't met by chance on a New Jersey bridle path.

One of these two woo Walter Bowes, a New Yolk businessman who was itching' to try something new. The other was a young inventor who had an idea for something new. The something new was a stamp-canceling machine.

Within a few weekS, the machine was built and the inventor was off on another project, leaving Bowes the sole owner of a pocket-Size factory. This was poor judgment on the inventor's part, for Bowes built a fortune on the gadget. His first order, from the Postmaster General's office in Washington, amounted to $1,000,000.

In 1914, Bowes made a trip to Europe to help install the machines for foreign governments. On the home crossing, he had another idea.

Pasting a stamp on an envelope and then printing cancellation lines across the stamp was a waste of time and effort. Why couldn't a machine print the amount of the postage and cancel it simultaneously?

Before the boat. docked, Bowes was scribbling designs on the backs of envelopes, trying to devise a foolproof meter which would register — and keep regisering — every penny of postage used.

World War I intervened. But in 1919 Bowes brought the idea out again, and took it to Washington postal authorities, who by that time knew him well.

That such a postage meter could mean big savings in the Post Office was admitted. But it would amount to private printing of postage and hence would require an Act of Congress. Before the postal men could ask for that, they would have to see a device more fraud-procf than the one Bowes had sketched.

C of the Postmaster General's asels ants took Bowes aside. "There's a fellow you 'ought to get in touch with, Walter," he said. "He's been working on an idea like yours for years. I have his name ah, yes, Pitney, Arthur Pitney."

is a federal offense, punishable by fine up to $10,000 or five years in jail.

Another, more accessible register records the amount of postage purchased by the meter user, who takes the gadget to a post office, planks down his money and has the dials of this second register set to indicate the sum.

The meter is then locked and sealed with a lead tab.

As letters go through tile meter to be stamped, the gears add up the postage automatically. And when the total reaches the amount set at the post office, the machine refuses to wort any more. Not one additionally pexn‘y in stamps can be printed until the meter is taken to the post office again.

To Pitney's meter, Bowes added the best features of his mail cancelling machines. These fed, counted and stacked envelopes at high speed. They also printed postmarks of city and state plus year, month, day and hour of mailing.

All this is so commonplace today that it sounds woefully obvious. Working out the mechanical details, however, was far from simple. And when the great day came for the demonstration in the anteroom of the Postmaster General's office, the envelopes jammed two or three times on their way through, the ink ran perilously close to dry.

Even after the postal authorities accepted the invention and pushed a special law through Congress to permit its use by the business public, there was only one postage meter in actual operation for some time. It dispatched mail from the inventor's own office in Stamford, Connecticut.

"New Machine Prints a Postage Notice on 250 Envelopes a Minute, Saving Hours of Labor," said a headline in The New York Times when Bowes leased one of his meters to the newspaper.

That was 35 years ago, and orders are still coining in. In the United States alone, the stamp meter is used by more than 50,000 organizations, from one-man concerns to the largest financial, indusAt last the one-time mail clerk had trial and publishing houses. found financial backing for his stam p licking substitute.

Wednesday, November 14, 1956 some print any denomination up to $99.99.

The whole system is possible only became the meters are nearly 100 per cent foolproof. When something does go wrong, a Pitney-Bowes repairman — one of a nationwide staff -- removes the ireter, takes it to the post office to transfer the remaining postage to a new meter under the eyes of postal authorities, and overhauls the old one or returns it to the factory.

The rest of the machine, which is usually sold outright, operates the meter, seals up envelopes and ejects stamps for bulky parcels.

Both the meter proper and other parts of the stamp machine are made of steel.

Heat-treated, low-carbon steel and chrome-nickel steel are used for most of the moving parts. Pitney-Bowes also uses die-cast iron, tempered spring steel and stainless steel in strips, bars and extruded shape. One attachment for opening letters has a high speed blade which slices letters at 700 per minute, taking paper clips in its stride.

Among the biggest jobs the meters do are those of large insurance firms.

Sending out millions of payment-due notices, dividend checks, etc., every year used to be a nightmare. Dozens of clerks had to be hired just to paste on stamps.

Now, once the envelopes have been addressed and filled, the rest can be done by two or three mail clerks. They simply feed open envelopes into one end of the machines and carry away the sealed, stamped, postmarked and cancelled mail from the other.

Up to now, the average letter writer has not had much experience with postage meters. But Pitney-Bowes is busy correcting that neglect. Recently, an automatic mailing device has been perfected for use by the general public.

Called the "Mailomat," it's a self-service post office.

Set up in steel cabinets the size and shape of old - fashioned wardrobes, "Mailomats" have been installed in large city post offices throughout the country. All you do is insert the proper amount of postage in a coin slot, set the dial for the amount and type of postage you want, and insert the letter in a letter slot. The machine whisks the envelope away just as you remember what you wanted to say in that postscript you didn't write.

V•P S T' N K— W.F:§T; TEXAS

THOSE DELICIOUS APPLES It was my good fortune to travel through some of the apple-growing states on three different occasions. Apple orchards always interested me. In 1937, when my wife and our youngest son traveled with me through Arkansas, eastern Missouri and southern Illinois, they were just as thrilled about apple orchards with ripe apples as I was. To them it was a new sensation, quite different from the sight of orange groves in the Rio Grande Valley.

We had to stop and visit three or four orchards. The owners were just as pleased to meet people from Texas as my family was to learn a few things about apples.

On the wall over the fireplace in the offices of the Stark Brothers Nurseries & Orchards Company in Louisiana, Mo., hangs the portrait of a stern man who appears to have just taken a bite of a very green persimmon. The portrait is an oil painting of Judge James Stark— the founder of Stark Brothers Nurseries & Orchards Co—the largest and oldest fruit tree growers and sellers in America.

Judge Stark came out from Kentucky in 1816—saddle bags packed with apple scions from his father's orchard—and picked a spot for his homestead on the sheltered side of the high bluff rising from the west bank of the Mississippi.

At first he gave his trees to the settlers, but being practical and Scotch, he began to charge a few coppers when the homesteaders and their demands increased. In those days the planting of an orchard was second only in importance to building a shelter.

Stark trees spread their branches over the Midwest and into the Missouri and Mississippi Valleys. The name became a household word.

The Judge's original tree business has come down through five generations of Starks, and today is in the hands of eight Stark men.

In the company at the turn of the century was a Stark of rare talents.

Clarence Stark had advanced ideas on promotion; he designed an elegant catalog, printed in four colors, and distributed 100,000 at the St. Louis World's Fair in 1904. An avalanche of business pOured in.

The Starks will tell you that for generations The Bible, The Old Farmers' Almanac and a Stark catalog were the only pieces of permanent literature found in many farm homes.

Modern advertising methods and the possession of outstanding apple varieties were sending the Stark business into the upper brackets when a third

factor came along to boost their stock still higher. This was a business arrangement with Luther Burbank, the "Plant Wizard." The Starks made him an offer of several thousand dollars for three varieties of fruit which they liked.

Upon his death his entire stock of new plants and experiments were turned over to the Starks who are continuing with the work in their experimental orchards at Sebastopol, California; Louisiana, Missouri and Atlas, Illinois.

They now pay the Burbank heirs a royalty on everything they sell from this gold mine of fine fruit varieties.

The chance discovery of the Delicious apple made the Stark name a national byword for fine fruit. Clarence Stark came up with the idea of an apple show.

The show was held in 1892, and Prof.

Van Demean, U. S. pomologist, was the j udge.

The first prize went to a plate of strikingly red apples which were the most novel in both appearance and taste that the Stark brothers or the judge had ever encountered. The owner was not present, but that was not what worried the brothers.

A frantic search failed to reveal his name or address. The entry card had been lost.

Although the show was a success, the Starks were bitterly disappointed, for they felt that something of genuine importance had been within their grasp and had slipped away. The only thing they could do was to wait and put on another show with the hope of attracting the unknown exhibitor.

Luck was with them. The next year there were not only five apples, but a barrel of them, and this time they did not lose the entry card. It bore the name of Jesse Hiatt, who had an orchard near Peru, Iowa. They hastened to buy all rights to the tree and in their catalog of 1894-95 they first listed the Stark Delicious apple trees.

The Stark Delicious apple originated as a chance seedling (one not planted by man). Jesse Hiatt found the sapling growing in his orchard. He chopped it down, but it grew up again and he permitted it to bear a crop.

Orchardists were slow to take up the Delicious. There are styles in apples as well as in women's hats and the five bumps on the end of the Stark Delicious was something new to apple men.

The Starks pushed it, enclosing a free Stark Delicious tree with orders for other apple trees. It is now grown all over the world.

The original old Delicious tree, torn and disfigured by a, half century of winter winds, is still standing in Jesse Hiatt's orchard. It is surrounded by a burglar-proof cage and if the Starks had their way it would have been canonized long ago.

In 1940 a blizzard swept across Iowa, killing almost all of the fruit trees in the western part of the state. Among them was the old Delicious tree. The news spread. The Starks went into mourning and newspaper writers and radio commentators wrote tearful obituaries. Fulton Lewis Jr. devoted his entire radio time one evening to a are% well eulogy.

But, like Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn, who came back to witness their own funeral, the 67-year-old tree shook its head, got up from the floor and put out a new sprout. It is now growing vigorously and a horticulturist has been retained to care for it and guard the shrine.

The Starks employ plant scientists and do some work in cross pollination and plant breeding, but the fortunate chance discovery of the Delicious has led the Starks to believe that every back yard nad orchard in the country is a potential birthplace for valuable new varieties.

The stablemate of the Delicious was also a chance discovery, and quite as amazing.

In the spring of 1914 Lloyd and Paul Stark opened a box of apples which had just come in by express. The box held a few yellow apples, but there was nothing about them to excite the two men.

Lloyd mechanically wiped one of them and took a bite. He knew at once he had bitten into an entirely new and different apple. "I would say it's a Grimes Golden," he said, "but this is April and Grimes should have been gone for several months."

It closely resembled Grimes Golden, but had an entirely different flavor and the conic shape of the Delicious. The box had come from Odessa, West Virginia.

That fall, Paul decided to make the long trip to West Virginia. By narrow gauge railroad, horse and buggy and the final few miles on mule-back, he arrived at the hillside farm in West Virginia mountains. No one was at home, so while waiting he decided to have a look at the unpretentious seedling orchard back of the house.

"I didn't see anything there." he says, "and was about ready to give up when my eyes fell on a tree half way

ALL GLORY TO G ,3RIA Gloria Schuld is a platinum blonde of undetermined age but extremely , determined temperament, and she is giving the State of New York a hard time.

She refuses to reveal how old she is because she doesn't want it recorded on her driving license for all the world ---particularly those snoopy highway patrolmen—to see.

"Don't tell me the bureau (of motor vehicles) needs to know my age for identification purposes," she is snapping. "I change my hair color every three weeks. Do they want to know that too?"

All I can say is hooray for Gloria Schuld and let's all come to the fore, wagging our tongues before us, to accept this ageless challenge.

Too long have we hidden our fight under a barrel and docilely exposed our relative state of decay to every old bureau that asked for it.

Why, indeed, need the nosy government. passport people. police department, social service office and friendly neighborhood loan company know how long ago we dangled, upside down, in the surgeon's hands?

This is a very personal matter between our mother and us, and to continue pressing us for facts and figures on our birth date is only going to lead to-greater and greater nationwide depeption and a growing mass guilt conscience among the feminine sex.

As if we didn't already have enough to feel conscience stricken about -- as everyone knows, guilt complexes are growing bitter and more fashionable every year -- they saddle us with this one: Lying about age.

It is totally unnecessary and, personally, resent every public officer and private inquirer who has forced me for years to bite my tongue and utter hoarsely (lying always makes me hoarse) the deceitful words, "Twentyeight."

Miss Schuld in asking for a special dispensation to avoid giving her vital statistics to the vehicle bureau, said What she was especially fed up with Were men grabbing her handbag at parties and reading her age, not to mention her hair color. She insists that her age, if any, be listed as "born before 1934," and that the hair color be inserted in pencil so that it —like her coiffure — can be touched up occaslobo lly.

This, of course, is the honest way of approaching a far-reaching problem among the women whose age is "over 21," I would venture to guess that, as

of the present ,writing, a good 90 per cent of the documents filed by women in bureaus and card indexes coast to coast are incorrect.

If they are not false in the age category, then they are most certainly questionable in the weight tabulation.

No woman in her right senses would be completely accurate in filling in such details; unless, of course, she's a neat 115-pounder of 18 summers, or she just doesn't give a hoot.

Let us all rally our resources behind Miss Schuld in whatever way we can.

Let us stop being deceitful and start being mum. o ( SNAKEBITE CURE The following letter from a patient is submitted by Dr. W. A.

"Kdyby nas vSak pan kongresnik v restaurantu vide', myslil by si, Ze jsem pHjel —" pokusil se narnitnouti Malta.

"Houby by si myslel, ehlapeeku! A ostatne kdyZ nechcete do kongresniho restaurantu, pojd'te tamhle ven. Troche nine na Pennsylvania Avenue jest peknj restaurant, kde se vYborne najime a milsi ph torn pohovorid. Ja s vami rdda miuvim a doufam, Ze yam rozpumpuju jazyk, vy nedovtipo."

"Jak dlouho se adr'Zite ye Washingtonu, miii phteli," zeptala se pojednou divka.

"Nevim, slejeno Ido, ale moZna Ze odjedu jeSte dnes v noel," oclpovedel.

Jeji tvar jevila zi.ejme zklamani. "A kam pak?" zeptala se.

"Zpet na svoje piisobiSte do New Albany, bezpochyb3r. To Ark bude zaleZeti na instrukeich, ktere dnes veder dostanu," rekl, chteje se ehraniti pfed dalSim yyptitivitinim. Pozoroval, Ze chce jeho sarnozvana spoleenice vtzvedeti jeho plany.

Podal ji pies stul ruku s usmevem. Nejak ji zjihnul pohled, kdyt mu jeho pravici svoji malou hebkou, peelive manikurovanou rueltu stiskla. Snad to bylo jen od cigaretoveho koute, jeho byla nyni mistnost pina, ze se ji vkradla vlhkost do zrakt.

Zaplatil iidet a vy gli. Dovedla jej do kongresni knihovny upozornila jej, co vge musi videt, aby bajeenou budovu tu nale2ite poznal a rozloudila se s nim.

Malta citil se nyni, po svem ptimena odmitouti livce mnohem bhZe, ne21i kdy2 se nan draZdive tiskla na balkonu kongresu nebo kdy2 ji oblekal do jejiho kabatku a temet mu nabizela, jemu, pine neznamemu, svoji tvat ke kradme mu polibku.

Z budovy kongresnikii gel pak na hotejgi Pennsylvania Ave., do jednoho z yete gnickYch kramt. Tam koupil si dve tinavoSede kogile, ovinovaci vojenske na holenice a mail kuffik star gi a ottelejgi ne2li byl onen, se ktierYm do Washingtonu pkijel.

Po ceste, kdyi mijel jaksi obehod s velkYm zrcad lem mezi vYkladnimi okny se pozastakil a zmetil se, v leskle ploge. V prvnim okanZiku nemohi sam sebe poznati v postave farmaiskeho delnika nebo dtevorubce, ktera se zjevila jeho zraku. Byl spokojen se svYm zevnej gkem. Rozhledl se kolem sebe po rugne ulici vladniho mesta a s tvati aivenou usmevem naproste sebeduvery a s pocitem vYbojnosti zajigt'ujici viterstvi, pokradoval v ceste na nadra21.

paprsky do silnice, ktera pied nim utjkala do Balky jako revile dle pravitka do poll vryte feei gte naeervenaleho pisku. — V polich a lesich v gak bylo vge svem jako v dobte zalevane zahrade. Nepravidelne temne "joie borovYch lest ohranidovaly malebne obzor na nekolika stranach. I mezi girYmi lany poll staly pane lesiky borovic gtihlYch jako sto2ary s ozdobenYmi chocholy tenanYch korun, podobnYch piniim na obrazech z Italie. Portiznu u cesty bylo videti dista a thledna farmatska staveni, obklopena zahradami pinYmi kvetii. Zadni dvorky teener vgech farem stineny byly kyti• cemj stromt s . koru.nanai tak hustymi, ze tvotily jednu massu temne zelene.

Na polich pracovali farmati se svymi rodinami, nekcie dva tfi Mo gi se skupinou &mocha, muff' i 'Zen. Cestou potkal Malta tea nekolik dernocht, kteti se na nekolik krokii pied nim s cesty uhybali a jej uctive zdravili.

Pojednou se Malta zastavil. Zaslechl za sebou supot motoru. °hied' se. Po ceste za nim ujiadelo skutedne nejake auto. Brzo poznal, ae jest to farmatsky nakladni motorovY vtiz, na nema byl jedinY mua. NemYlil se ye svem odeltavani, 2e zastavi a nabidne mu svezeni. Trok zmirnil rychiost kdy2 k nernu dojiZdel a zastavil na ceste ternet vedle neho.

"Want a lift?" zvolal mua u tidiciho kola, jakoby se to samo sebou rozumelo. Malta pokynul hlavou a ji.2 vylezal na sedadlo vedle fidiee.

"Much obliged", tekl sotva se motor rozejel. "ITZ mi zadinalo bYti proZlukle teplo."

"Kam jedete?" zeptal se mladY farmak u fidiciho kola.

"Nevim. Nekam, kde bych dostal praci na vzduchu," odpovedel Malta. "Bylo mi tedeno, ae v Pineville na okurkach pottebuji pomoc. Jia jsem myslel, 2e do nej bli2gi vsi nedojdu. Umi tady u vas slunidko ptipalovat!"

"Oh, tohle nic neni," zasmal se farmat. "To prave pkijde teprve v Cervenci a srpnu. Ale to nic! Za nejakou hodinu se zdvihne od mote vitr a je a,2 do veOera snesitelne. Tyhle ranni hodiny bYvaji nejhor gi. Vgak jia zacina trochu foukat."

Skuteene, Malta pozoroval znatelne osve2eni ovzclu gi. Jmenovite pfi jizde zaeinalo mu bYti zcela pkijemno. Obratil se k svemu ochotnemu prtvocleimu a tekl: "Toho horka tady jsem se nejvice bal. Ale musel jsem na jih na radu lekatt, nebylo vYberu. Jen abych tu dostal nejakou praci. Jak se jmenuje misto, kam jdete?"

"Pineville — A co se prace tyre, copak o to! Ted' praci dostanete wade kde se zastavite. Je prave sklizen rannYch

Tu praci, ktera je, si obstara, ka2c1j farmat s rodinou sam."

"Jen kdy2 se ze zaeatku nekde uchytim," tekl Malta vdeene. "Pozdeji si tie-. bas najdu praci v nekterem hotelu na zalivu."

"To by take glo," prohodil farmat po chvilce, podival se pocestnemu ptimo do tvate, zeptal se: "Jak se jrnpujete?'

"Charles Malta," odpovecieh tento.

"Malta?" zvolal farmat, a hued na to Cesky: "Tedy taky tech?"

V Maltovi se zatajil dech a pot mu znovu vyrazil na skranich a giji. Netekl ale nic, jakoby byl ani nesly gel co bylo promluveno v jine fedi nezli anglicke.

"I thought you were a Bohemian", pro hodil farmat jaksi zklamand, kdy2 neptichazela odpoved'.

"Oh, no"! tad Malta ,sna2e se dati syYm slovtim ton naproste lhostejnosti a uvedomuje si teprve kdy2 je vytkoul, ae tema dvema sltivky, jsou-li v osade kam jede ae gi, zatarasil si jednii z nejptimej gich cestieek k jejich domovtun, jejich dtvete. A eta jsou-li majitele ono ho ostrova — ne, to ptec nemii2e ani bkti — ale deji se podivne veci na svete — a zde on, tem& prvnim slovem odhodil, rozbil to, co se mu mohlo bYti nejlepgim cloporudenim — Led bylo pozde litovati. Rubicon byl ptekroden. Nyni, nechce-li hned od prvniho kroku mezi ty to lidi se diniti podeztelkm, musi vytrvati, zdstati tim, za co se prohlasil. — To vge jako dva, tti Itti2ujici se blesky prolalo hlavou inladeho mu'Ze, zatim co pot na jeho giji .se sraael ve studene pramenky.

"Malta is a Bohemian name", tvrdil majitel auta.

"To je mo2ne, ale ja, nejsem tech, hra2oval se pocestnY. "To je divne, takove Ceske jmeno. uvaZoval farmat tvrdogijne.

"No, I am not a Bohemian," tekl Malta tonem, jakoby odmital nejake podezteni. Hlavou mu prolalo, v jake bude vYhode, bude-li muset jetinati s Cechy, nebudou-li tito vedeti, ae on rozumi jejich fedi. Jen aby tu nebyl °pet nejakY chlap z Chicaga, ,kterY by jej poznal.

"Oikdy ne, to mi ani nenapadne!" hr4dil se rychle Malta a ye snaze odeiniti svoje klopYtnuti, dodal: "Naopak, ja, dam znam Cechy, kteti jsou znameniti 4de. — V Chicagu mei jsem spolugaka a Omarada, syna Ceske rodiny.". fzekl to danlive klidne, ale byla v nem mala du4idka.
