Seward za AlaSku $7,000,000 a pozcleji pripojil k nabidce jeSte $200, 000, aby itzemi issohlo bYti postoupeno bez jakYchkoliv zavazkri. Techto d ye ste tisic bylo na yyplaceni Rusko-americke spoleenosti, ktera vedla spravu fizemi jmenern Ruska a za to mela jista, obchodni prava. Smlouva o prodeji AlaSky podepsdna byla dne 30. brezna 1867. Senat schvalil snalouvu bez prtidahu, avSak v dome zastupcil narazila na znoenY odpor a potrebna eastka povolena byla aZ 27 . eervenee, 186'1.

Vsouvislosti s koupi AlaSky vyskytly se vklijake povesti. Jedna znich udavala, ze ‘za Uzemi to zaplaceno bylo jen $1,400,000 a $5,800,000 bylo "platens Rusku za namorni demonstraci v americkYch vodach v dot* kdy Anglie nadr-, Zovala Jihantim a Spojene Staty potrebovaly pritele." Thad povest tvrdila, ze Rusko dostalo jenom $5,000,000 a zbytek $2,000,000 dostal se do neznamYch kapes. Tuto posledni povest dokonce vyktroval i kongres. Ukazalo se, 2e 2adna z techto povesti se nezakladala na pray de. Bylo prokazano, 2e poukaz na pinou sumu odevzdan byl ruskemu vyslanci Ed. de Stoeklovi dne 29. oervence 1863 a dne 1. srpna 1868 eastka ta vyplacena.

Potom zase sc, kjkalo, 2e statni sekretar Seward jednal poktile, protole za obnos ten dostal jenom "velikott lednici". Dries vSak vine, ze SpOjene staty koupily dobre. Od easu koupe poskytlo Uzemi to za vic jak dva biliony dolarti ryb a rybich vYrobitti; Zlata a jinYch kovil vyteZenYch za dalil jeden bilion.

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK Life Insurance Buying Is Your Financial Status Honest?

If you want a loan, you have plenty of plications are plentiful and interest company these days, for people and rates higher than for many years, it is Pattern Little Changed business enterprises are borrowing more money from banks than ever before, While all of us recognize the financial statement of the applicant is the focal point in determining whether or not to make a loan, there are many other elements which may tip the scales one way or the other. These elements cannot be listed in the order of their importance because loan applications and the types of business of the applicants, vary so widely.

Certain generalizations, however, can be made. First of all, the moral risk must be above reproach. Moral character cannot be graded: if the applicant does not have it, the loan should not be made, regardless of other considerations.

Next in importance among the things which do not show on the financial statement is competent and experienced management. To our way of thinking, the qualifications of such management should. include among other things.

1. Thorough awareness of effects which the peaks and valleys of the business cycle can have on the particular business over a long period of gears, 2. Complete knowledge of selling technique and methods in "buyers' markets" as well as. "sellers' markets."

3. Experience in and familiarity with purchasing problems in periods when materials and supplies are plentiful and also when they are "hard' to get."

4. Sufficient resourcefulness to meet ever-changing competitive conditions.

5. Familiarity with the best techniques of advertising and public relations.

6. Top officials who are well grounded in production, selling and finance, but able to delegate these phases of management to experienced men in their organizations.

After all, those conditions are but an elaboration of the first two "C's" of the classic three—namely, Character and Capacity. In these days when loan am°

only natural that bank officers are taking a long and careful look at the management of the prospective borrower, for it is not the figures on the financial statement that are going to repay the loan—but the people. behind them!

'That is why we must look at the "man" in "management," )

The buying pattern of new life insurance during 1356 was nc much changed from the year before in percentage distObution by various measuring rods, but what changes there were loomed larger in some cases because of the increase in new insurance in the past year.

PLAN FOR. COLLEGE EDUCATION

This is hown in an analysis made by the Life Insurance Agency Management Association of a sample of new ordinary life business in both year. This analysis showed relatively small shifts in type of policy bought. In 1956, limited payment life led, accounting for 35 per cent of the total, and in amount of insurance, family income and other combination policies led, accounting for 29 per cent of the aggregate.

"This is the way to make an educational approach," says a successful organizer.

When I contact a family that has just been blessed with a new baby, I ask, "Have you made provision for a college education for your child?"

Usually the answer is "No." If they don't have a plan, I continue: "Suppose your child reaches age 18 and says I would like to go to college.' Now, if you don't have a savings plan or a couple of thousand dollars Cold Cash, you'll have to borrow money and pay a high rate of interest, "But I have just the savings plan to fit your particular college needs. Instead of paying interest, you are going to get interest plus a great deal of protection. You can't go wrong.

"Here is our Endowment at age 18.

Under this, particular plan, you can spread out' your investments over a period of 18 years. In this way, you can make plans to start your baby to college now. When was your baby born?" ) • 4• "I have always looked at life insurance as something you don't really buyFor what is life insurance actually? Isn't it simply an agreement by you to accumulate a' certain amount of money for future needs'?"

• • When the truth hurts an enterprise there is something wrong with the enterprise. ° DT. ° Let's all remember to Help our Rest Home for the Aged!

MONTHLY PAY PLANS GAIN

The primary shift in the method of payment of premiums on the new policies was an increase in the use of the monthly payment plan. by number of policies, monthly premihm plans increased from 41 per cent to the total of 45 per cent of the total and by amount of insurance, from 27 per cent of the aggregate to 33 per cent.

Because of the increase in purchaSes in the year, this meant that monthly premium policies bought increased than 20 per cent by number and more than!

40 per cent by amount. In contrast, all other payment plans combined, annual, semi-annual and quarterly, increased less than 5 per cent by number and less than 10 per cent by amount.

And you'll find real advantage in calling upon the skill and understanding of one of our organizers. ) ( Theory is all right for the books but it takes practical expression of ideas to make life better.

Moraysti Bratri No 6, Cottonwood Celebrates Birthday From humble beginnings that staunch group of members of our S.P.J.S.T. Cottonwood Lodge, Moravian Brethren No. 6, have stood together through these sixty years, through wars, drought, depression, sickness and death, to observe this day amid their friends and families, with love and sweet rememberance of those charter members who have left their ranks, and high hopes for their continuance for another sixty years.

Our friend and brother, Pr esident Pavlas, of Lodge 1Vloravian Brethern No. 6, called the assembly to order and introduced young Johnny Krizan, who gave the Welcoming Address, followed

by Jerry Jo necka, who sang two Czech songs beautifully; "Ja 1VIlam Kone," and "Na Tom Prazskem Moste." Now, finding a youngster these days who still speaks Czech is getting to be a rarity.

Needless to say, the ovation of an appreciative audience for Johnny's efforts was heartwarming.

Little Betty Beseda, recited a poem "They Never Die," especially writen and dedicated to Lodge Moravian Brethern No. 6, on this sixtieth anniversary by the Editor of your Vestnik.

Consequently. ibis has meant also nave been put to work in investments Last year-1956-marked not only a a longer period of premium payments in the general economy. boom year but the rounding out of a boom decade for American insurance companies. This and more is indicated in the annual reports of insurance companies that are now being published.

A new and different turn is being taken by insurance in the United States.

Time was when insurance was thought cf solely in terms of disaster: a fire, a robbery—and, of course, death, which often takes a family breadwinner in the midst of his most productive years and when his responsibilities are greatest.

Insurance still bears the burden of such disaster, but it does even more today.

Insurance is assuming a new role in the nation's economy and life.

First, insurance companies are expanding the, umr ber of things that they insure for. Where in years past insurance covered mainly robbery, fire, and one's life, today there is insurance for illness and disability, there are business insurance plans, group annuities and pension trust plans. When a baby is born you can provide for its college education by subscribing to an endowment plan.

Secondly, insurance companies, with greatly-increased funds at their Ws-posal are becoming an important source of capital—for industrial expansion, far community business development, and for individual home buying.

Insurance companies in the past ten years have expanded by millions of policy owners and beneficiaries, and by billions of dollars. During the period, some companies have more than doubled the valueof their life insurance holdings. This has meant the creation of a giant market for capital.

Women's Nook MULCHES FOR THE GARDEN Nature does not plow, harrow or cultivate the soil. Her way of growing plants is to drop over. the surface of the ground a protective blanket of dead leaves, stalks and twigs. The earth beneath this coer remains porous and moist, a good medium in which roots can push out and thrive. You can use the same method by covering the ground around your plants with a mulch. Suitable materials are easy come by. Some common ones are farm manure, dead leaves, hay, straw, pineneedles, sawdust, peat moss, wood chips, peanut shells, buckwheat hulls, tobacco stems, polyethylene plastic sheeting, aluminum foil, newspaper and even flat rocks.

To get the idea of what a mulch can do. consider what often happens without ,Ale. The sun, shining directly on the bare earth, dries it out, cakes it and makes it hard for roots to penetrate.

Rain falling on the hard surface, runs off instead of soaking in.

Cover such a soil with a good mulch and the earth will become permanently damp as its moisture is no longer drawn out by wind and sun. Earthworms will appear, and their tunnels will aerate the soil. If the mulch is organic and thickly maintained, the lower portions will decay and the resulting humus eventually will work down and improve the sail structure to a depth of several inches.

Organic mulches, as well as manmade ones, keep the light from striking the ground and thus prevent weed seeds from germinating. Those weeds that do get though may easily be pulled from the soft ground beneath the mulch.

If the idea of mulching sounds good to you, here are some tips on what to use for particular plants and locations.

In warmer parts of the country a mulch is fine all year round especially in summer. Plants won't grow when the

ground gets too hot. For many of them, about 80 degrees F. is best, and a mulch helps keep the temperature down near this level.

In the northern regions the cold ground needs the sun and warmth. So spring or summer mulch is not recommended. In winter however, when alternate freezing and thawing is likely to damage plants, a mulch, applied after the first heavy freeze will keep the ground solidly frozen—which is all to the good.

Black polyethylene sheeting has been used successfully as a mulch around vegetables. Black absorbes heat, and the polyethyleene worms up the underlying soil by 5 to 20 degrees. This gives vegetables a. big a head start over those planted in the ordinary way. Also the black sheeting cuts out light so that no weeds grow.

- Dr. E. M. Einmert, professor of horticulture at the University of Kentucky, pioneer experimenter with black polyethylene, unrolls a sheet of it over the ground that has previously been cultivated, anchoring the edges with clods of dirt. He then makes small slits with a pocket knife wherever he wants to put in a tomato or other plant. Large seeds can be planted directly under the slit, and the vegetable will came up through it. Sprouts from small seeds, carrots, radishes, etc.,—may miss the opening.

Plastic sheeting may prevent some rain from entering the ground, but Tshaped slits, cut with the stem of the "T" toward the direction from which Water flows, will help. One disadvantage of the black polythylene is that it may- make the soil too hot in midsummer. Aluminum foil will keep the soil cool but is rather fragile. Clear polythyleen has been tried, but it does not keep the weeds from growing underneath. Experiments are now going on with plastic impregnated with aluminum. particles.

Most plants like their soil to be neutral or only slightly acid. Fortunately, most organic mulching materials are nearly neutral and don't change the acidity or alkalinity of the soil.

Certain plants, however, want a distinctly acid soil, blueberries, azaleas, rhododendron, laurel, camellias, blue hydrangeas. For these, acid peat moss makes a fine mulch. Imported peat, sometimes known as German peat, is most acidic. That from Michigan, Georgia and Pennsylvania is less so. New Jersey peat may have ground up snial shells in it and be neutral or even slightly alkaline. Other acid mulches are pine needles and the crumbly wood of rotting stumbs. Sawdust asd wood

chips are okay too, but they won't make the underlying soil acid if it isn't already so.

When organic matter such as straw, peat moss or sawdust is put in or onto the soil, it gradually decays and forms humus. Microbes do the work of breaking these materials clown, and as they work, they require nitrogen for the proteins of their bodies. Unless nitrogen is supplied, in the form of fertilizer, they will use the nitrogen in the soil and deny it to the plants. For this reason it is wise to add a nitrogen fertilizer with the mulch. Lack of nitrogen shows up in a yellowing of the leaves. The cheapest way to supply nitrogen is to acid ammonium sulfate, ammonium nitrate, soilium nitrate or a fertilizer such as 106-4 to organic mulches at the rate of one or two ,cupfuls per bushel. Split the application into two or three parts, and apply at intervals, during the growing se2son.

Acid loving plants want the thickest mulches. A sawdust mulch around azaleas might be 1-3 inches deep, a peat moss mulch 3-4 inches. Once you have the mulch on, keep it tuilt up to the same depth and never remove it permanently. Roots that have s grown up close to the surface will dry out and may die.

For general use, mulches of light mate ials, such as straw should be 3-4 inches deep, those of heavier materials such as sawdust one-half to one inch. Roses like a mulch of cow manure or crushed corncobs. Potatoes have done - well under a. 12 inch mulch of peaunt hulls. Daffodils like chopped-up sugar cane stalks.

A chopped' straw mulch is grod for strawberries and raspberries. Among other things, it keeps the fruit clean and dry. Such a mulch aroud tomato Plants will even out their growth and help prevent the toinadoes from cracking. A cheap mulch may be made by putting down layers of wet newspapers, hiding them with peat areas.

A famous mulcher is Ruth Stout who lives in Redding, Conn. Around every vegetable, flower, shrub and tree she keeps a year-round mulch of hay, weeds and paper 6-8 inches deep. This is never turned under or disturbed. Scientists from various agriculturel colleges have studied her method and admit that she has a fine garden, although they would favor using some chemical fertilizer, which she omits. At any rate, her method eliminating almost all diggging and hoeing, which certainly is worth the price of the hay. It is also nature's way of growing things, and in the long run, nature isn't dumb.

011111111Mhi SPJST SOFTBALL TEAM OF LODGE 84 DALLAS Dear Sisters and Brothers: Our SPJST Softball opened play in the Dallas League Championship Playoffs, Monday Night, August 5 by defeating the Western Electric team, winner of the Southwestern Bell Telephone League, by a score of 5 t 0 1 in a very good game. We scored 1 run in the second inning and they scored one in the 3rd inning and the score remained tied until the top of the 7th inning. In our top of the inning, we scored 4 runs, featuring some good bunts, heads up base running and a hit mixed in. Also the pressure was on our opponent and the committted 2 errors which also helped us cushion our lead. In their bottom of the seventh inning, all three of their batters popped-up to end the game. The team played errorles ball afield and many good plays were made.

Jim Scoggins started on the mound pitching one of his best games this season, limiting our opponent batters to 4 hits, no walks 1 run and struck out 10 batters. Wilbur Munger handled Scoggins masterfully by turning in a very good game behind the plate.

Leading our offensi'o3 attack were Daryl Griser and Ted Dusek with 2 hits apiece and also adding to the attack with single safties were Albin Vrana, Bill Robbins, Jim Scoggins, Frank Mach, Joe Jarolik and Wilbur Munger. In fact every player got at least one hit except Raymond Smdth and he got on base via a base on ball.

This was really a tense, tight and well played game and our fellows were in there determined to win. As a result of this win, we play Wallgreen Drugs in the second round of play Wednesday Night, August 7th at 8:45 p. m. Lawnview Diamond No. 1 We had a very good turnout of members and friends who were there giving their support to the team. It was indeed gratifying to see so many familiar

We played Wallgreen Drugs Wednesday Night, August 7th in the second round. of play and we shut them out with a 2 to 0 win behind the 2 hit hurling of Jim Scoggins. He hurled a near perfect game striking out 8 batters, no Walks and only 2 hits. Jim Scoggins team mates gave him perfect support afield as no errors were committed. Every player made several good plays, but James Wdrtman, who came back from his vacation from. Corpus Christi, Texas to play Wednesday night, handled 7 chances at shortstop flowlessly and also Wilbur Munger starred behind the plate with his hustle and spectacular play. But as I said before, every player on the team played their best and that is why we won this game.

We could a aster our opponents pitcher for only 3 hits, one a triple by Daryl Griser and singles by Raymond Smith and Albin Vrana, Albin Vrana also laid down a perfect sacrifice bunt and Bill Robbins and Wilbur Munger got on base via walks. Our opponents committed 3 errors which figuredlargely in cur 2 runs. I must also praise the fellows on our bench, those fellows who do not . get in the games as often as the regulars, as we had six out at each game and they were about as happy on the bench as if they were in the game. The main thing was that we won the game and with this team spirit, any manager could be nothing, but happy to be associated with such a swell group of players.

We had another large turnout of motets, most of those who, were present Monday Night plus a few new ones.

The . players really appreciate such loyalty and support from our members and friends. Hope we have all these back at our game Thursray Night. We thus advanced to the quarter-finals of play and we play again tonight, Thursday August 8th and our opponent will be strong Collins Radio Team. Should we be fortunate and win tonight, then we Would advance into the semifinals which consist of the last 4 teams still left in the running. Of the last 4 teams, each will receive a trophy, 1st, 2nd„ 3rd 4th place finishers, so it will reflly be quite an accomplishment La. our boys if they could go all the way like we did the last 2 years and possibly cop another trophy in the plaoffs. Regardless of how we come out, our team will

be in there trying to win tonight and remain in the playoffs. , If. .we - Win tonigh „ then we will play as gain Friday Night to determine the two finalists and should we win Thursday Night, but lose Friday Night, then we would play again Sunday Night to determine the 3rd place and.

While the measure is said to face stiff opposition from Government employe unions, it has the backing of economy minded members of Congress and they hope to push it through this session.

Important Nctice An urgent appeal is being made to alt of our members, readers and friends by the Supreme Lodge for copies of old editions of the Vestnik, Svoboda, old calendars and the old organ "Obzor," for information pertaining to the activities of the SPJST or its founding membe •s since 1897.

The Supreme Lodge will be glad to reimburse your postage and expense for the inconvenience of mailing this material to us.

As you know, up to date we do not have any official "History of the SPJST" and Br. Chupick, our secretary, ha consented to endeavor to gather t is information which is needed for an interesting chronicle of our fraternity for posterity.

Insurance rates for a particlar auto coverage vary all over the lot. A New York businessman (to 'take an extreme case) may pay $45 for a single insurance coverage that costs a Pennsylvania farmer only $15. At that, the New York man may be getting a bargain.

How are such auto rates set? They are set by the risks you run. Using 4 lot of tables, charts and statistics the rate-makers put a price tag on your risks— considering three things mainly: the price of your car, the territory you live in, and whether or not you have a "youthful driver" in the family.

If you drive a Cadillac, your fenders will cost more to repair than Ford fenders. This means your rates for collision and compresensive insurance must be higher.

The territory you live in affects both your collision and your liability rates.

If the accident rate in your territory is high, your insurance rates are pegged higher all around because all your driving risks are greater—risks to yourself and your car and to other people and property. Different territories show different auto repair costs, too, and they are reflected in the price of all your auto coverages.

For drivers under 25 most companies charge liability rates that are nearly double the regular adult rate. The rate makers' tables show that untrained youthful drivers, as a group, have about twice as many fatal accidents as other age groups.

Two other factors affect liability insurance rates. If you don't drive your car for business purposes, you rate is somewhat reduced. Also some companies give a reduced rate if you drive lessctothan, say 7,500 miles a year.

Historka o slivovici Str5 r. Cka Mazurka StrYeek Martuek v korichu prepasan remenem sedi a velkYch kachlovYch kamen. V troube voni snidane — zabijaeko vy "obarnica," a vesele praskotaji opekand jelitka.

StrYc huli z drevenky, pi temne teplo z korichu i kamen vyluzuje radu luznYch meditaci.

"No, diku Bohu, kusek byl peknY, vydaril sa, vydaril. Namlete trochu mame, ye sklepe ertefle sit taky, eke troSku tej potfory na zahrati dyby bylo a u2 snad' tu zimu nejak do jam preklueeme.

Slivovica je dobra do hor, dyby uz byl lilt. yak, bude doekaS sa, milej Su, enom a2 sa paniska uraoa a poSlu ty stakradentske i:Strumenty na mereni.

Ja bude to glg, aji nejaky hlt poSlu Jan kovi, oficirovi do Prahy, budu Pra2ane otvirat gambiska, ja dyt zni nejni nad nasty slovacku slivovicu." — Mee — e — ee Znovu mocneje'— mee eeeee aaaaaaa zni odkudsi z venkua.

StrYeek sebou hervosne cukli.

"StakradentskY statek. Ze tu prku ledaeinu neuvaZu a nechaju ttlat po decline."

Meeecaaaaa! r ye neunavne nezname kozi Indio kdesi nablizku.

StrYeek vyskoeili a otevfeli Ode do sine.

"Stakry§, Jenofko —"!

Misto odpovedi zni nrikrne meeeeaa a kdysi nedaleko.

V leve ruce fajku, v prava, tatar vy leteli strYeek na dvtir. Jako poradnY sed-, lak snesou bueeni krav eeleho panskeho dvora, tehtat mohou vSichni kone; "knirete pana" ale koza, stakryS, to ne, pusobi na ne zrovna tak, jako na nervosniho pana ridiciho, kdy2 mu kluci ulienici fidluji naslinenYm prstem po okenim skle.

Fajfka vypadla z ruky, "tatar" klepl o rem a strYci Maztukovi stridave modra, Sediva,, rudne oholenY kulatY oblieej.

Z velke kade s trnkovYm "ma:Cern" u mlath S'klebi se na fleho prikrne jakasi pekelna obluda — dva rohy, vyvalene oel velikosti panenskYch jablieek, chlupata brada, ohyzdna, rozevrena llama s vypiazenYm jazykem vSecka zabalena v tinedem drahocennem kvasu a r ye, aZ uSi zalehaji, meeeeeeaaaa!

Kdyby krava byla v poslednim taZeni, kdyby pfiSlo krupobiti, kdyby horela cha lupa, kdyb na smrt stonala verna aena — "zku.aS" rids, Pane Jelii, bud vtila Tva, co udelame", ale bradatY kozel ye vzdenem, drahocennein "maCu" vonicim pod kolnou dobrotou rani ej! e priStich slastnYch dnu "Hrom do tebe z nebi z jasna, ty potforo, anciaSu jakYsitog ty tak?"

(Antonin Kolek v Moravanu) Jako se vrlia hladovY vik na ovci, jako krveriznivY tYgr vypada z nouStin pra lesa na svoji ()bet' jako jelen rychlonohY jako hbite nth:6e, ne — to jsou jen slaba pfico ynani, ktera mohou jen chabe nazna eiti elan a rychlost, s jakou se strYeek -vain na obludu, k youci sve nemelodicke priSerne arie z kozich oper.

B/IrStne popadli "trYsku" skok a rany jako krupobiti huste padaji na hlavu toulaveho obecniho kozia, zaboNneho po krk v trnkovem 'kvasu.

Kozel se zoufale vzepjal, zahraval vSemi etyrmi ye slizkem obsahu beaky, obrcvske kapky strikaly po bile zdi, modre podrovnavee a jako naschval zamerily, chrstly ty nejvetSi strYekovi na zanovni koZich, zbruantnelou Ivar, uhasily dokonee °hen ve fajce, -- ale obluda zabo Ma se a2 po netvorne pysky, slavnY — "mac" vzehl do otvorene tlamy. Kozel zoufale r ye ,prska, divoce se vrti.

StrYeek hodili fajku nevalne do hromadky plev a vztekem slzice uchopil po tvoru za mocne rohy.
