It was a fine day enjoyed by all present, all the arrangements were carried out without a hitch. So many Lodge members volunteered their services without any remuneration and that's the way it ought to be, if you wish your Lodge to prosper and to be able to do some worthwhile things.

My heartiest congratulations to you all may thiS be the beginning of a new era for your Lodge of unselfish service.

There have been many definitions of ;act", but no better example of it, we sullmit, than the following letter from a credit manager to a careless customer, whose check had been return ed with x the robber stamp notation, "N.S.F." "Dear Madam: Your bank has returned your check given to us a few days ago, with the notation, 'Not Sufficient Funds.'

We are very sorry inched that 'your bank is in such dire financial straits that it has not sufficient money on hand to honor this ,small check. We,realize that this situation may q2e due to poor management on their part, but on the other hand, they may be very good friends of yours and deserving of your continued patronage and assistance.

Doubtless you will wish to give them sonic much-needed-advice. Possible you may also wish to save them further embarrassment by depositing some more money. So we are putting the check through again, and trutt, that by the time it reaches them you will have an opportunity to adjust this particular difficulty for them."

Insurance Texas families owned 12,290,00 life insurance policies providing $19,526,000,000 of protection at the start of this year, a new high record, the Institute of Life Insurance reports.

This compares with $17,225.000,000 owned in this state the ear before and $6,066,000,000 at the start of 1947. The ten-year rise in this state was 222 percent.

"The years since the end of World War II have seen the greatest additions to the bulwark of U. S. family financial protection through life insurance in all our history," Holgar J. Johnson, Instituee president commented. "What is more ,today's life insurance is more effective than that of a decade ago in terms of what it will buy, as its greater aggregate relative to family income represents a material increase in purchasing power. And' it is more than ever before set up under planned family p pagrams, with a large portion of it arranged for income payment."

Of the total life insurance owned January 1 in Texas, $11,415,00 was in 3,712,000 ordinary life polices.. Purchase of new insurance of this t ype in this state amounted to $2,373,000,000 in 1956, exclusive of credit life insurance. New York was the leading state in ordinary life insurance ownership.

To All of Our Would-Be Correspondents Many members have stated that they would like to write in to the Vestnik but that they cannot handle the English language well enough for publication.

Again we advise you that it is the thoughts in your letters, the news items of your lodge and your locality that are important and interesting. The editor will gladly correct grammatical errors in your letters so you needn't be embarrassed by your ungrammatical letters.

Everyone gets "rusty" in anylanguage when it is‘nut used too much, and letter writing is no exception, so if you will just sit down and write the happenings in your immediate lodges, the editor will take care of the rest. Just write.

Let the Texas fraternal family knovi that your lodge is still alive and on the map. Try it and see how easy and simple it is. You will create more interest in your local lodge and all your members will thank you.

My best regards to you!

After everyone has filtshed eating, games will be played, both for the youngsters and the grownups. All attending the "Family Night" and games will be given the opportunity to take home a smoked ham as some one lucky person will find out. It will also give our members a chance to inspect the new addition to our present building, which will be nearing completion, except for a lot of inside work. The Bar will be moved and in the addition and the air conditioning will be completed,, so all attending' can enjoy a cool evening of visiting together and playing games, cards or whatever they like.

This is your chance to show your interest in your lodge and to show your appreciation to those who have undertaken the task, and the responsibility to improve your lodge hall and have a nice place for our dances and other forms of social entertainment sponsored by your lodge.

We also wish to inform all our members that the "family night" is open to both, members and non-members, so make plans, to bring your friends along for the evening and to all future "Family Night" got-together parties. So turn off your TV and let it cool off while you yourselves cool off at your lodge hall and display the fraternal spirit of benevolence, humanity and brotherhood amongst your fellow members. _ Your Entertainment Committee Lodge Pokrok 84, Dallas ° dts * (Sokol Sentinel) My purpose for writing this letter is twofold. First, I want to give you a report on the wonderful "Slet" just concluded in Chicago. Those of you who were unable to attend it missed seeing

a splendid performance. The calisthenics by the Junior boys and girls and those of the men and women were the best I have seen in a long, long time.

I wish that all of you could have seen them. The would have been an inspiration to you just as they were to me.

Perhaps if all of us had been able to participate in the "Slet" we would all work a little harder for that wonderful organization, Sokol.

No doubt you are wondering how our gymnasts came out in the competition.

They did very well. Johnny Kebrle won first place medal in the 100 yard dash, Carl Von Hoist won the second place trophy in men's high division, Joe Ehrenberger won the third place trophy in the men's high division, and Eddie Parma won the fourth place trophy in the junior division.

The competitors from Ennis and Ft. Worth also did very well. The Ennis women's team won the third place trophy in addition to Libbie Vrla's winning a third place trophy. And Jerry Milan of Fort Worth won two medals. One in pole vault and the other in shot put.

Congratulations to each of you. Keep up the good work.

And to those of you who are not active in our gym work, I want to extend a, sincere invitation to come work out with us and start preparing for the next "Slet".

Now to the second reason for writing this letter. As, you know for some time the attendance at our monthly meetings has been very small. We tried moving it to the middle of the week and then to Saturday nights. But apparrently the only thing we succeed in doing was confusing you, so it has been put back to Sunday afternoons). Specifically the Second Sunday of each month at 2:30 p. in. Please be there as we have much urgent business to attend to.

I will be looking forward to seeing you again at our meetings.

This testimony to the power of the press was made here by Frank E. Bartholomew, president of United Press.

Mr., BartlUornew, appearing on 0 Rotary Club program, said "it is the free and unfettered U. S. reporter, prying into all sorts of things which are `none of his business' and `not' in the public interest' who turns up the shockers and who brings home the ho . ror of oppression and the penalty paid by an uninformed public, "We have no press subsidy and we have no laws against "disrespect' of pub• lie officials as some countries have. The reporter is a free man. And is a free man because he has demonstrated his responsibility and determirn•tion to get the truth out and to stand by the truth.

"We have reporters all over the world today facing with bravery and determinations which should appall a noncombatant. Why? To do what they have been trained to do and what they believed.in. To get the truth out."

Services were held at the Sacred. Heart Church with the Rev. W. A. Caldwell, OMI, officiating.

Mrs. Neskorik was born November 29, 1893, in Fayette County, Texas. She has lived in Seymour with her husband, S.

V E S T N I K— WEST, TEXAS J. Neskorik, since 1914. Mrs. Neskorik is survived by her husband, three daughters, Mrs. Tillie Sedlacek, Mrs. Mary Chaney; Mrs.- Martha Padis, five sons, Babriel, Dumont; John, Girard; Eugene, Stanley and Jce. She is also survived by 17 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren.

Antonie Maria was born near Fayetteville, Texas. She lived there until she was grown , moving then with some of the family to McLennan County. She was married in that county, on Jan, 13, 1914, to Stanley J. Neskorik, and the couple farmed in McLennan County the first year of their married life. They moved to Baylor County in the fall of 1914, and for the first year Mr. Neskorik worked, for Doc Lawness. Then they lived on the Clint Fields place, seven miles South of Bomarton for several years.

In 1933 they came to the old White farm two miles north of Seymour, living there for 15 years. After living on the Drew place and on the Hannus place, west of the Brae bridge, the family came to Seymour. They bought a home, two blocks east of the court house.

For the past four years Mr. Neskorik has been caretaker at the court house.

Mrs. Neskorik had not been in good health since 1928, and was operated on two or three years ago. Of late she had been worse, and was in the hospital for eight days before her death. Mr. Neskorik will continue to live in his home.

The late Mrs. Neskorik was a member of Lodge 95 and we all express our sympathy to the bereaved family. ) • 4*

Hub Cap Thievery, heretofore a growing business with a future, is scheduled for an abrupt reduction if the plan of six cities near and, including Sanger achievs its promised success.

Marking the name of the car owner and its licen.se number on the inside of caps in such a fashion that it cannot be eradicated may not eliminate the too numerous thefts, but; it certainly will aid in tracing the stolen property to the original owners, something which. virtually is impossible under present rmnditions, even when peace officers make a recovery.

Chief of Polhi'e William D. Davis , of Selina, whose city is involved and who appears to be one of those spearheading the drive to reduce hub cap thievery,. says that in addition, Kingsburg, Fow ler, Dinuba and Reedley are cooperat-ing.

New car dealers in the various cities of this antitheft league, lit asserted; have agreed to purchase instruments to do the writing on the inside of the caps. They likewise have agreed to offer the free service to anyone who wishes it.

The plan then contemplates a clearing house in recovered caps.

While the idea should discourage would-be strippers, it does not create a formula for aiding police in discover7. ing the whereabout of stolen caps.

Perhaps inscribing them on the outside would be more helpful, both in preventing the theft and in recovering the caps. But who wants to mar his car t o that extent? ° ) •

Children's, Youth Club Dear Boys and Girls: I saw someone little dog wandering about the street the other day trying to get a drink of water from a lawn sprinkler and it just occured to me if maybe you, our reader, have forgotten to fill the dog's pan with fresh water, lately. Your pets need a lot of water and many of you probably, not thinking, have placed his pan where the sun can evaporate the water and make it too hot for refreshing drink. Check your pet's water pan and place it in a shady spot where it can keep cool, and check his pan every morning the first think when you go outdoors.

Lack of water can, give your pets fits -- and he will die, so do be careful. He may endanger other peoples life.

Another thing your dog needs in these hot days, is bath with a good soap.

Flea powder for fleas which annoy your pets during these times, too, is a good thing to have.

Check his vaccination tag. If it has expired — get him to the Veterinary for a new "rabies shot" and tag. Rabies are very dangerous to human beings and if not caught in time, a human being can die from it.

Just to show you how dangerous it is one 12 year old boy was sent to the hospital with high fever and very, very sick. Before the different tests could be run on him and they found out that he had rabies and died. Forty other people who had been with him, his family, friends, and the hospital

Drinking Fountains Drinking fountains should be provided and located and necessary for the patients' convenience. If placed in alcoves should be of sufficient size (3'6" Wide) to admit a wheel chair. The fixtines project from the wall so that they may be used easily by wheel chair patients approaching from the front. They should be trimmed with an angle stream bubbler and lever handle self-closing valve. The bubbler should be approximately 36 inches above the floor. The control valve, or valves, should operate by depressing the handle. Valves may be placed on both sides of the fountain or, if a single valve is used, it should be located for easy operation with either hand.

Nurses' Station A nurses' station will be required for each nursing unit and should be locateed to conserve nurses' time and steps and to afford the most effective control of the nursing areas. Since it must also serve the other control functions recommended herein, it should be of approximately the same size as a station for general nursing. Equipment should' include the minimum necessary for nurses' call, charting, medicine storage and vreparation, and storage. =The requirements for the nurses' call system are similar to those for a nurses' call System in a general hospital.

Treatment Room A treatment room should be proVided for use by visiting nursing home staff physicians or patients' private physisians. It should be centrally located with respect to patients' FOGAIS. It might be possible to locate it for this type of institution such as bedside occupational activity equipment, books, crutches, rand the like.

Service Department Kitchen The kitchen should be located so that it can easily serve the patients' bedrooms, central dining area and staff dining room. It should also be convenient to the service entrance for food deliveries and garbage and trash collection. It is recommended that the dishwashing area be separated from the

kitchen and that it be adequately lighted and ventilated for desirable working conditions.

Kitchen layout should be based on efficient workflow as found in well planned small general hospitals. Adequate space and facilities for storage, preparation, serving and proper sanitation should be provided. Equipment such as ranges, refrigerators, garbage disposals, should be heavy , duty quality to withstand constant and regular use. Size of pots and pans should be standardized to the size of ovens, refrigerators and shelving in orer to bring about the )greatest utilization of equipment.

Janitor's Closet A janitor's closet adjacent to the kitchen will encourage the maintenance of a clean safe working area.

Laundry Facilities Most nursing homes will probably decide to have their laundry done commercially. If so, storage should be provided for clean and soiled linen and located for convenient pick-up and delivery by the commercial laundry. In some homes , it may be feasible to have the clean linen delivered directly to the linen storage in the nursing department, but in most cases the necessity for sorting and the distance that the delivery men would have to travel might make this arrangement inconvenient.

The size of clean and soiled linen rooms would be determined by the amount of linen to be used and the frequency of delivery and pick-up. Some equipment should be provided to pre-wash linen used by incontinent patients before it is sent to the laundry: Employees' Facilities The minimum facilities required for employees would be a locker room. and toilet for each sex. Depending upon the Size of the institution and the size of its staff, provision of other facilities as might be necessary for nurses, doctors, etc., should be considered.

Fire Safety Recommendations Building Occupancy It is recommended that no building shall be occupied and used as a Convalescent or Nursing Home for the aged or infirm, or mentally ill, unless full compliance has been made with the applicable Fire Safety provi4ons hereinafter provided: Exit Pa:--a,,:Tways. All passageways leading to exist shall be kept free of all obstructions at all times to permit free access and free use thereof.

Smoking Smoking may be permitted in nursing convalescent or old age homes only

where proper facilities are provided.

Smoking shall not be permitted in sleeping quarters, except at such times as supervision is provided.

Minimum Standards for Nursing Homes Providing. Custodial or Attendant Care New COnstruction All new one-story buildings shall be constructed of not less than one-hour fire-resistive construction throughout except that boiler rooms, heating rooms, and combustible storage rooms shall be of three-hour fire-resistive construction.

Submission of Plans When construction is contemplated, either for flew buildings, or for additions or material alterations to existing building, the preliminary plans or Sketch should be submitted to the State Department of Health for review and approval before the preparation of working drawing. The preliminary plans shall be drawn to scale . and shall indicate the assignment of At spaces, sizes of areas and rooms, and the location and kind of fixed equipment.

Before construction is begun, plans and Specifications in duplicate covering the construction of new buildings, additions, or material alterations to existing buildings should be submitted to and anproved by the State Department of Health as to compliance with the nursing homes providing custodial or attendant care regulations. These .plans shall show the general arrangement of the building, including a room schedule and fixed equipment of each room, together with such additional pertinent information as the State Department of Health may require.

No water supply or plumbing System Or system for the disposal of sewage, garbage, or refuse shall be installed nor shall any such existing, system be materially altered or extended until complete plans and specifications for the in stallation, alteration, or extention, together with such additional information as the State Department of Health may require, have been submitted to the State Department of Health in duplicate and approved as to their sanitary features.

All construction shall take place in accordance with the approved completed plans. If it is desired to make deviations from the approved plans, the State Department of Health shall be consulted and approval of the proposed changes obtained before construction changes are started.

JINDfUCH S. BAAR Pokraeovani.

Kolem ohromneho okna mihali se Tide, jezdily oozy elektricke drahy, prohanely se koeary a automobily, at koneono jeden z inch zastavil pied restauraci.

"Ut jsou tady," vykrikli skoro v gichni a upreli zvedave oci na dvere.

"Tak tamhle, pane Skrivanku, tamhle k tomu ,stolu do rohu," ukazoval pan rada starci cestu pies celou hostinskou rnistnost a vYmenkar uz s yYm zjevem budil pozornost u vgech stolu. Sel vzprimerit, s hlavou vztYteenou, dlouhe vlasy, gedive jako m1C,,ko, padaly 'mu at na krasne vySivanY limec modre kazajky, cipy Cerveneho gatku splYvaly pod vzdor ne vypiatou bradou po snehobile ko gih pod vestu. furiantsky zapnutou pouze dole na tri knoflieky a nohy ye tlutYch kotenskach a vysokYch botach vy glapovaly pevne a prutne. — Chlupatou vydrovku nesl v jedne ruce, padnou eakanu ye druhe, a tak moil, kam mu prst pana rady ukazoval.

"Pane, ten se nejak mraei na lekaly se panicky.

"Hledi jaksi nevrle a prisne," kritisoval hned pan gkolni rada.

"KrasnY starec a jak zachovalY! e kla jste, milostpani, tu gim, to eita sedmdesat let?"

"A jegte pet k tomu pridejte, pane zdravotni rado!"

"Venkov! ZdravY venkovsl vzduch!"

"Pekne vitam do Prahy, pane Skrivanku," popo gla milemu hostu vstric pani radova.

"Dyjt to Pambti", potras1 ji srdeene rukou vYmenkar.

"Ma Acta! Ma Acta!" klaneli se mu pani.

"MO teki," zavreel Skrivanek a prejel zrakem jako pilnikem celou spoleenost, at damam naskoeila husi ktite.

Stafec usedl tetce na prazdnou tidli a no druhou vedle sebe hned si eepici a Inn. "To bychome snad mohli povesit tarnhie na ve gak," chape se obojiho pan rada.

"Mohli, hale nepovesime. Hospodu neznam, 11th v ni teky ne. Tak hid z ruky ried.<-",,m ha eepici s voei nespustim.

Cio-vek nihdyt neni dost moudryj, i dyby bul sto let staryj. Eote by mi to tu mohli promenit za nakou huoku jako ty vajleka."

Za Skrivankem ut se toed elegantni ei gnik y e franku a bile veste.

Usiniva se schovivave a saha Aslutno po vydrovce a eakane, aby ji sam clones1 na rohatinku, jet stala v protejSiin koute u kamen.

"Clovieku, oak sine zae? Prekati yam to, te mi na to Sahate?" melt si ho str'T a mysli si v chichi': "Ten chlapik ire yoblee jako la gtuvka.

Pan g kolni rada si zamnul ruce, pan ministerskY rada shanel si pro sebe jinou tidli, pan zdravotni rada viak starostlive svra gtil eel() a rekl: "Pane Skil.vanku, litr piva plzenskeho najednou, nebude to na vas mnoho?"

"Chic sem takovyj skreek, haby do nine nevliz liani jeren mat? Jen se nebujte, ja talc hned nepreteeu."

ZainraeenY ei gnjik oprtavclu postavil pied venkovskeho hosta pet eerstyYch uzendeti, at se na ne Skrivankovo srdce smalo, a malt' jikolik prihnal se s velikYm korbelem piva , kteilY at do te chvile sloutil jenom jako ozdoba hlubke Sy nade dvermi. VYmenkar pritahl sije Ste k gieek s rohliky a rekl spokojene: "Tak! Ha Rico me nechte, hajt' tu zlost zajirn ha splaknu, sic do me nic nebure."

Nic se tak neprotivile Sktivankovi jako katcla polovieatost v my gleni, keel. i ,s,kutcich. Sam celY gloyek, povaha jako ze tuly, nesnesl tadne bezpaterne veni -ani jeclnani. ikaval easto: "Nage rot must byYt podle bibli, anoano' nene'. Jenom tidi rikaji 'asi' — `motna' -- 'mad' ha podobnY marnoste. Hdyt svarba, tak svarba, ha dyt funus, tak funus. Hdyt se ma elovek pote git i hdyt ma zaplakat, hajt' to za to stoji.

Nalada ehveka east° opravdu leti v jeho zaaudku. Jakrnile strYc se nasytil, mason. se a zapalil si avoji bradku, hned se mu vrasky na Cele rozbehly, jako by je vytehlil, oei v hlave se mu sevele rozehraly, cola tvar se rozjasnila a zkrasnela. VlidnY jeho hostitel zatim vylo'Al, co se Skrivanko yi cestou prihodilo.

Vtichni uznali opravnenost jeho hne-

Ve stredu, dne 17. eervence 1957 vu, shodli se v tom, te na nektere stanici z nakladniho vlaku, kterY vetl uhli, prepaSovali kus z vagonu do strYcova koSieku, aby podle vahy nic nepoznal.

VYmenkar sice jegte zabouril: "Ha to potom jedou no pout, to sou poutnici?

Zlocliji to sou!"

"Vgude koukol rnezi prenici," potegil ho pan gkolni rada.

"Ba, ha," prisvedeil Skrivanek, citil vgak, jak se boure vzdaluje, zlost v nem ulelia a sam navrhl: "Naoneme z jinYho soudku! Pro par vajieek si hu nas nedame nohtt za krk. Hat k nara prijedete na zdravY povetri, tak vam to gecko vynahradim." To povidal, obracen k pain radove, ktere to ,vajleka privez1 cti a darem, nebot' znal Prataky, te se • k nim s prazdnYma rukama nesmi lit, rriaL ji-li si hosta, jak se patri, vatit.

Pivo dobrejako kren strYeka ut rozpalovalo, v restauraeni mistnosti pribYvalo tepla i koure, takte Skrivanek jako doina sylekl si soukennou kazajku, pOlotil si ji pod eepici vedle sebe na tidli a sedel jen tak v dlouhYch rukavech snehobile, krasne vygivane Vgechily panicky si ho te-d' zalibne pro.hlitely, at chot' pana zdrttvotniho rady neodolala a optala se zveclave: " Cim ' to, ,te na v gech narodnich krojich mate pradlo jako padly snih, naSkrobene a natehlene jako z cukru?"

"Dyt' je piece na ge tenckY perou, tak mugi byjt bilY," usmal se vYmenkar. "fteknete sam, damy," obratila se pani radova, ke syYm drutkam, "docilime my takove belosti? Nikdyl Nage pradlo je zatloutle a musime to zmahat gniolkou, aby se zdalo "Na ge 'tenckY perou s prisadou, v torn leti celY to tajemstvi," u gpuloval se Skil.vanek.

"Cot my snad ne? — My piece take!"

"U nine musi pradlena kupovat prag ek, pere-sam'," kfreely radice jedna pies druhou.

Ve stredu, dne 17. eervence 1957 "Budete-li pak si ten navod pamatovat?" optal se nevinne pan zdravotni rada. Ale panicky to rychle zamlouvaly.

"Jak pak se v Froze dlouho zdrZite?"

"Pujdete se take podivat, na vYstavu?" coZ do divadla?"

"Ja. bych y am obstarala zdarma stek."

"Videl jste uZ nekdy biograf?" doraZely jako vosy na dedou g ka, aZ mu Ala hlava kolem.

I, too, wish to express my sincere thanks to Dr. Albert H. Broden of Hallettsville for all he has done for me. My age is 67. I came all the way here from Den ver, Colorado•, and I am happy I came. At my age I was rather dubious about getting well because I was doctoring my ailments since 1922. At first a number o • Doctors told me I had appendicitis; later I went to one and he told me that I have a prolapsed stomach and not appendicitis, later I found out he was right because my uterus was down too. I had terrific pains ice my back and groins, constipated and heart trouble.

I cannot enumerate the doctors I went to, but all hey had for me was a belt that dealt me more misery than when I did not have one on. Doctor Braden exa mined me and without X-ray just his finger touch in less than five minutes he told me what was wrong and in another half our I was back to health again. It is nothing less than a miracle to be delivered in such a manner. My organs are now in place and I feel like new born. I feel that Hallettsville should be congratulated for having a wonderful Doctor like Dr. Braden.
