Zas kus historie Nasi SPJST ze zaztiamu zemieleho piedsedy br. Galii lined pri zakladani prvniho radu OSPS., raciu Texan v texaske Praze v roce 1884, na jehoZ zaloleni mel hlavni za,s1ulin Anton Kulhanek, a nas nekolik mlad Bich Texanii pojednavali jsme o placeni Umrtnich poplatkti OSPS., kde kaZdY elen mel platit jeden dolor mesiene, bez rozdilu staid, v kterem. , ku spolku pristupoval. Ale to Za.dnY jinY slovanskY spolek se nam lepe nezamlouval, tak jsme se usnesli ptipojiti se k CSPS. ktery2to rad uveden byl do Jednoty cane 14. dubna 1884, na, farme Jana Btreka, bydliciho ten as asi Best mil na jih od Prahy, tIdetnik hlavniho raciu br. Max Kirchman, prijel z Chicaga a uvedl nas do jednoty, a na druhY den zajel do Ellinger, kde jiZ take meli klub zalolen hlavnim prieinenim Aloise Koniakovskeho a Tomage Hrug ky a tarn uvedl rad 6echo-Moravan.

Ja jsem pracoval v ten eas co klerk u firmy Wolters Sons na Schulenburgu.

Po zaloleni techto dvou radu CSPS, psali jsme a agitovali na rtizne osady, by take zakladaly rady CSPS a s pomoci Franti gka Pelikana stareho eespesaka, St. Wrby, Jos. Kopeckeho a Hynka Haidugka zaloZili jsme Radho gt,' v Schulenburgu. Pak pomoci Stepana Kubaly a Jost Petra zaloZili jsme tad na Dubine, kde Jos. Petr melrozsahle farmy obchod a dZinu. Pak pomoci Josefa a Felixe Sta vinohy zaloZili jsme jinY rad OSPS na Ammannsville. Pak v roce 1890 ja jsem zaloZil rad Franti gek PalackY v Engle, z okolnich rolnikil. Pak dal gi agitaci byly zakladany rady mnoha jinYch Ceske slovenskYch osadach statu Texas.

Na sjezda velkoraclu statu Texas v Schulenburgu, ptijali jsine navrhy na opravu stanov a povetili jsme Maxe Kirchmana, aby na ge texaske rady zastupoval na narodnim sjezdu OSPS. A mimo jine opravy Zadali jsme, aby byly poplatky rozdeleny podle stati pristupujicich a take aby Zeny byly ptijimany s rovnYmi privy j.ako muZi a jine. Ale Zadne z na gich oprav nebyly prijaty.

Nasledujici sjezd velkotadu CSPS byl odbYvan na Ellinger v roce 1890, kde jsme °pet pit all ty same opravy a jegte jine, a vyslali jsme svoje texaske delegaty Hlavniho sjezdu OSPS kterY byl odbYvan v Cedar Rapids v eervenci 1891.

Texas mel jedenact radii a byl opravnen k jedenacti delegatiim. Ale nasledkem vzdalenosti od mista sjezdu a vYloh s tim spojenYch. usnesli jsme se getriti, a misto jedenacti delegatfl poslali jsme tarn jen tri, a site E. Polach z Caldwell, Jos. Peter z Dubiny a I. J. Gallia z Engle. V ten Cm jsem mel sarnostatnSr obchod v

Engle. Bratti Pollach a Peter meli teZ obchody ve svYch osadach.

Na torn sjezdu bylo zastoupeno jeden a dvacet state na gi Unie. A take jeden a dvacet elenii bylo zvoleno na opravy sta nov. Prof. Shriek z university Iowa City, byl zvolen za hlavniho tajemnika a ja co yYpomocnY tajemnik. Az asi do 8 neb 9 veeer pracovali jsme v gichni, ale po devote ostali jsme tarn sami dva tajemnici a seradili jsme ty haldy oprav jak jsme unzali za nejlep gi pro dobro celku.

Mezi jinYmi opravami zadali jsme, aby poplatky byly placeny podle staid prijimanYch elenn. a Zeny aby byly ptijimany s rovnYmi privy jako muZi a aby pojistne bylo rozdeleno na $250, $1,000 a $2,000 a krome toho je gte jine opravy. ktere jsme uznavali za prospe gne pro budoucnost CSPS. Ale vegkere na ge opravy byly povaZovany za radikalni a take k notovani pro br. neetnika Hl. Radu a co neodporueila Hlavni atadovna,, bylo v ge zamitnuto nage texaske opravy pololeny na odkud nebyly v dvahu vice vzaty.

V ten eas bylo mi dvaatticet coke, pinY texaske horke krve. Vystoupil jsem a mu sel jsem sobe slovo vynutit, a rekl jsem jim. to nebudou-h na ge opravy prijaty ani v prigtim sjezdu, to my, elenove yenkovskYch radii budeme nuceni si zaloZit jinou jednotu i kdyby jsme to meli sami v Texasu udelat. e se pokusim zaloZit novou jednotu, v ktere by mohly bYti opravy piijaty, jake nova doba vyZaduj e.

Po uk.oneeni mojeho prohla geni mnoho delegatd pri glo mi gratulovat k moje mu prohla geni a. mezi nimi byli; prof.

8imek, redaktor Pokroku Zapadu Jan RosickY, Leo Palda atd.

Oekali jsme do druheho sjezdu OSPS., ale Zadne z na gich oprav nebyly prijate, a tak v prosinci v roce 1896 svolali jsme schitzi delegatil velkotadu statu Texas do LaGrange Texas a tam jsme zalotni na si nynej gi SPJST. To po zaloleni nagi Texaske Jednoty take hned RosickY a ji -nezaloZi apdniJeotu.

Pracoval jsem na na gich stanovach del si dobu a mnozi Texane s nami. Porovnavali jsme stanovy OSPS. WOW. Herman Soehne ODHS, a jine. A z tech stanov jsme vybrali co jsme uznavali, to by pro texaske Oechoslovaky bylo nejpraktie*WM. Jen bedlivjim bdenim a stalSrm premY-jak zdokonalit na ge stanovy, ma budoucnost, aby tyto vyhovovaly vgem poladavkiim nove doby mil2eme odekavat vzrast a prospdch Jednoty naAi. Musime ptipravovat pole pro ty, co po

nas prijdou za sto a za tisic let„ jeliko2 nevime co se mite za tak dlouhou debit stati. Musime sledovat dobu dneAni a dobu priStiho pokoleni. Zaklad mime do brY, na kterem mohou na gi potonici a jejich pc,tonici lehdeji budovat net nam bylo motno einiti ty p •vni kruAne roky nag ich zadatka. Mnozi dobri pracovnici dneSni doby pri zadatku pohli2eli na nas sastrke ma pri stoupili k nam, kdyZ vide li, 2e je to lep gi pro lie. Ostatne s tim nebudeme 2adne zle vale dinit, zdali ma me miti veecky zalohy v jedne kapse aneb y e dvou, hlavni veci je, kdy2 ktera me zalohy, alespori v jedne se da upottebit k aleve poticebnYch. Zdali to jmenujeme zalo2ni nelf fnrtni fond, to jest stejne. Ne jak to neinila start CSPS; co mela starYm elenfun dati Ulevy, nalotila jim poplatk y pies $72.00 rodne. Tak 2e ti, kteri nemeli dolt Wette no z mladYch let aneb je j ich deti, talc museli odstoupit aneb po 40 neb 50 letech se dat po bratrsku vyloudit.

Kdyby byli vfidcove CSPS ye sjezdu ce dar Rapidskein aneb v nasledujicich sjez dech proziravi a pristupniia pottebnYm opravam stanov dle praktietej giho a spra vedlivej gho potadavku nove doby nebyly by snad Texaska ani Zapadni Jednoty nikdy zaloteny. Ze ale se tak muselo stati, stojime dnes v Texasu samo-statni a mime Jednotu nad nit kahlY v Texasu mate bYti hrdY. A ja doufam, to Ptig ti pokoleni ji bude dale zdokonalovati v torn duchu na nem zalotena byla. Jsme dnes jako jedna velika rodina, stctjici na, pevnYch zakladech, treba se nekdy ruzni piece proti me v jistYch bodech nym jednotam mime vYhod pro nage eleny nejvice, pro nas a pro nose potornky.

Tak jako nejsou dva lido v nicer stejne podoby, tak take nejsou stejnYch nahleda. Nahledy mohou bSTti dune — ale pro dobro cele Jednoty mime vAichni pracovati s dobrYm amyslem — ne pro zisk ani slavu jednotlivce, ale pro dobro celku.

You Can't Satisfy Them All

Look For The Pebble In Your Shoe!

The farmer is entitled to the right to produce efficiently what he can sell to best advantage to the consumer, He should not be handicapped by subsidized competition. I, for one, believe that the millions we pour into agriculture to maintain the social and economic statusquo is seriously interfering with the efforts of the agricultural community as a whole to adjust properly with the needs and desires of consumers. Animal agriculture will meet the challenge with increasing knew-how no matter what the road blocks may be.

We heard of a man who limped along a country road. "This road is too rough," he complained to his companion. "My foot aches so I can scarcely walk."

"I don't find the road too rough," said the other man. "But if you like, we will stop and rest."

Sometimes, perhaps,' we allow our imaginings to carry us away, but worse than that is the attitude that nothing new is worthwhile. I once heard about a man who had a wonderful bird dog and decided to train him to do something new and different. He set out to teach the clog to walk on the water rather than to have him splashing his way out from the duck blind to bring in the game. After he had finally taught the dog to do this miraculous trick he went out one crisp fall day hunting with a friend. Sure enough they killed a duck and he sent his pride and joy out to retrieve. The big dog raced over the Water, picked up the duck and trotted back to the blind. He as fairly bursting with pride, but his partner didn't even appear to notice. In exasperation he said: "Say didn't you notice anything unusual about the way that dog retrieved? " "Sure." said Joe, "I noticed — the dog can't even Swim." ♦ 'Ti

"By all means," agreed the first man.

"I want to show you how sore and swollen this road has made my foot."

The men sat down while the one man removed his shoe. As he did so. a pebble rolled out and dropped to the ground.

How many times do we complain about the road when ire have pebbles in our shoes? The road is not rough unless we think it is. Many times we complete a task and, looking back, wonder how we did it so easily. It is the mental pebbles we put in our shoes that make walking difficult. Then we complain about the road or the task. The man whose mind is filled with a high purpose goes on his way singing. The next time you find the road rough, look for the pebble in your shoe.

Will You Lie Able To Turn The m Over TO *T 12-AT Someday, your boys will want to take over the farm. When that day comes, they probably will have small childten and large expenses, just like you do now.

It is only natural that they will want the extra income full farm ownership gives. In order for them to take over the farm while you are still alive, you and your wife will need more income than the boys could afford to pay in rent or installments on the purchase of the farm. If you take out a life insurance plan now, it will pay ydt a regular income to fill the gap betAen what your boys can pay and what you and your wife will need to live on.

More Valuable Than. Money The only possible way we can prepare for the future is to concentrate with all our intelligence, all of our enthusiasm, on doing today's work superbly today. We should shut the iron doors on the past. . We are all standing this very second at the meeting place of two eternities, of ofth,e past and the future.

So if we want to make the most out of our lives, we should concentrate on serving humanity for only today. This attitude is more valuable than money.

It is self evident that the road to higher planes of success, happiness and satisfaetion begins with an intensive appreciation of organized knowledge acquired through daily study. This organized knowledge means success.

Success likewise stems from enthusiasm, enthusiasm which is self generat-, ed within the salesman and as a result carries over into his everyday work and into the service which he renders the buying public. To the factors of knowledge and enthusiasm we must also add the comprehension of underwriting principles, a well grounded knowledge Of the background of the business and finally a facility for the installation of confidence in the prospect.

Upon understanding the factors portant to the salesman in completing his sale we should then examine the techniques which we develope and must rely upon to cause people to purchase our service. An understanding of those techniques necessitates also an appreciation of the psychological situation existing between the prospect and the salesman. This situation is based on the following fundamental buying-selling forinula: Human beings want more than they can ever possess because wants, stem from basic desires, However, there are deterrents to the satisfaction of human wants. This is evident by the fficulty in selling the prospect. There re several such deterrents, but the prime ones are conflicting desires and limited capital. Such conflict, then, necessitates a selection by the buyer, and most often the strongest desire will predominate, In the majority of cases the greatest desire of all is that of human preservation. Emotions are aroused by appealing to basic desires as the purchaser being a human being, is really a creature of emotion. He must be motivated to buy oftentimes through an emotional appeal.

these motionAl basis of human nature because we associate it with impulsive or ill-considered action, the ill effects of which have been experienced by everyone. Yet strip emotion from a man and his intelligence, his will, his uttered principles .and his apparent purposes,. exist without a backbone. The prospect likewise rebels at an emotional appeal.

He is wary, on guard. However, if you heel really made him "want" what you are selling, he has already made a decision. He then seeks justification for what he is about to do. Then his reshe has overcome the deterrents. Cost, within reason, is forgotten and all desire is subjugated to that stronger one which you have aroused, the desire for the benefits of your policy. ° 4 • (

Joe B. Hejny ) • 4 • ( FROM VICE PRESIDENT Dear Sisters and Brothers: When the members of the Third District held their meeting in the new lodge hall of Slovanska. Lipa at Elm Mott, one could see the pride and enthusiasm among the members of the lodge, and among the visitors too, and the same was to be noticed in. Dallas Lodge No, 84 when they had the open-

ing of their newly remodeled lodge hall on September 1st. You could see the satisfaction on everyone's face, both young and old, that they were pleased and proud of a job well done, and they have plenty to be proud of too. Not only because they have the most modern halls in Texas, but also that they are so active in Fraternal work. Both of these lodge's live up to our motto; Benevolence, Humanity, and Brotherhood. They also have very active teenage clubs for which we are very thankful to the youth leaders of these lodges. Dallas also has one of the most outstanding softball teams in the surounding community with Brother Ben Jarma as their untiring manager. I am sure that yoU have all followed the games they have played.

Through the reports of Brother Jarma in our Vestnik, our hats off to you and the boys on your team, Brother Jarma.

Another meeting that impressed me was at Lodge 39 in Bryan last Sunday.

I was very pleased with the spirit and ;interest the meeting was conducted. frother and Sister Chupick, Brother Navratil, my. wife, Donnie Joe and I started out for Bryan about 9:30 m. and arrived there at about 11:00, being the first ones to be there, but in just a short time the people started to arrive and before long we had a nice crowd and a table full of delicious food with the friendly spirit of Brotherhood everywhere. After having our lunch, Brother Regmund called the meeting to order with Brother Chupick, Navratil, Vytopil, Barina, and Hejny delivering a short address to the members and then came the most important bussiness of the meeting, iniciaticn of new membersr.

Oat of 10 new members secured by our organizer, Brother Vytopil, 8 were present to take the oath, with Brother Chupick performing the initiating ceremonies. Brother Vytopil, organizer of Lodge presented the young daughter of Mr and Mrs. Willie Kuder with a beautiful doll, she being the first member that Brother Vytopil signed up in the Juvenile department. After the meeting, before we realized what was happening, the floor was cleared of tables and chairs and the music of an accordian, violin and three guitars was playing old folk dance music and soon the floor was milling with dancing people. It really was day pleasantly enjoyed and on our way home I got to tninking that this could be another example of Lodge 66 in Elm Mott. I have a sneaky feeling that if Lodge 39 in Bryan would build themselfs al lodge hall, that they too Would be among the most active lodges of our Order. The people are all so very friendly with one another. The spirit 'of

Stream 19 Brotherhood is there., they have some Very live wires among their members that could really promote various entertainment programs and if they only had their own lodge hall, they would surely encourage the teenagers to come and share their programs, dances, and meetings with them. I am looking forward to the day that Lodge 39 in Bryan will have the grand opening of their new hail Wishing you all the best of health, I remain Fraternally yours Joe B. Hejny ) • 4 • ( ONCE BEFORE I have written in this column how easy it is to organize — you will be criticized if there is any force whatsoever to your personality. There is just cne way to avoid criticism: never do anything, never amount to anything.

Get your head above the cloud and the jealous will notice and attack you.

Therefore, welcome criticism as a. sign that your life has vitality.

Actually, your critic is an asset, though at times an unpleasant one, for he keeps alert and causes you to study yourself. When anybody criticizes you, instead of criticizing him in return, or fighting back at him, or saying unkind things about him, simply bless him. By following this procedure, your critic, instead of receiving opposition from you which is destructive, will receive good will, which is reative. You may not win him over by blessing him, but you will remove the sting from yourself and possibly help him overcome his hatefulness.

There is always a tendency, when criticized, to repay in the same coin.

Something evil has been done to you and the old Adam in us all wants to 'give evil in return. But that only makes the whole situation worse. And it is a fact that no good ever comes out of evil.

When you act smart, it is bound to react unfavorably to yourself. But, when you do the noble thing, the big, generous, and right thing criticism will fail in its intended purpose. ) • 4 • ( GOOD MEDICINE Joe was having trouble getting up in the morning so the doctor prescribed some pills.

Again this last month we have lost three of our members in death. Among them as. the young daughter of our secretary, Miss Barbara Ann Boudny. who lost her life on the highway in a auto accident near San Antonio. HOnor was given these departed. members in , a standing silent prayer.

It was also decided that we will start having lunches again with our meetings so all of our sisters are kindly asked to please bring a bite to eat. We will also serve coffee again, as the day will start getting cooler. Please reineueber this.

Instea,d of this Monday being typically blue, it will be a beautiful Monday and the perusal of Nursery Stock catelogs seem to be the most enticing occupation I can think of this morning.

While it is time for pansy seeds to go into the ground, most of us purchase the ready plants for setting out and early blooming. Now also is the time for those extra shrubs and bushes for your landscape, rose bushes, tulips and irises to be ordered for early shipping.

Now is the time to pull out all of your flower pots to be scroubbed of last years fungus growths, dirt and to be sunned, for potting winter house plants.

It ie also time to repot your present planes that are resting. Lovely African Violets as well as Gloxinas and various decorative leaves are available. There are arguments that the African Violet should be watered from the bottom up by soaking, never to wet the leaves etc. yet another school maintains that they can be doused under the warm water faucet and shake free of extra( water with outstanding results. The Gloxinias like a south window exposure in the winter and it is suggested that they be watered through a wick through the bottor of the pot which is then set in a pan containing water.

Both plants require more care but are again more rewarding for their dazzling blossoms, for your'ome in the winter.

Many of you have thanked me for the recipes that I've written into the Vestnik while a few have expressed an opinion that I would start a cook book section. I assure you that I've no intention of teaching cooking in this column, but I aid want to give those of you American-

VES TNIK — WEST, TEXAS

born brides a glympse into your Czech mother-in-laws kitchen, so that when your man asks fora dumplings, he means those like mother used to make and not the varied assortment of dough he has eaten in eating places.

The history of the strudel and its making will give you some idea what that delicacy is all about, and the famous kolaches that go like "hat cakes" in all bake sales would be worth your while in knowing how to make. The American kitchen is rich in, dishes from all nations such as the Chili and Tamales from our exciting neighbor Mexico; Pollito con Arroz (Chicken with rice) from Puerto Rico and possibly Spain; the Smorgasbord from Sweden; Spaghetti and meat balls and now the popular Pizza from Italy, etc. The South has its "Shortenin Bread" while Boston has its Baked beans. The list is endless but because you belong to the Czech group of Americans, 1'am s ure Y ou would like to know something about the Czech eating and its dishes, so, I am going to give you the recipes for the famous kolaches and the knedliky (dumplings) and then quit and leave the other recipes to the compilers of Czech cooking books of whom there are a number.

Please remember every recipe has its variations — some cooks use the pinchof-this; dash-of-that system; while others leave off this or that — but this is the standard.

The dumpling, as the potato, is a popular standby in the Czech kitchen. It is nourishing with stick-to-the-ribs qualities and can be served with kraut, gravies of all kinds or taken cold leftover dumplings cubed and buttered and fried brown with a couple of beaten eggs thrown over the lot for a hurryup meal. The dumpling was what your mother-in-law fed your man when he was her little "dumplin" and he still likes the food. This recipe which I am about to give you, I understand, is one that Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt used at the White House when her husband was the President of the United States. It is also an excellent way to utilize pieces of left-over bread that would be otherwise thrown out (if not dried and made into breadcrumbs), the ends of a loaf half slices and rinds cut from sandwiches can all be used. I cube them up immediately and thoroughly dry them, place in a clean paper bag for "dumpling" later.

Cream three tablespoons of butter with three eggs, blend well. stir in one cup of milk, three cups of ;lour and one teaspoon of salt alternately. Best the dough hard, stirring quickly until air forms pockets or blisters. Fry cubed bread in butter, add to dumpling dough,

Pour browned butter over theedumplines and serve. Omit browned butter if served with meat and gravy:, There it is — simple isn't it?

For you lucky girls who know how . to 'make "knedliky" I'm sure you will agree that this space is well used in,.giving some of our excellent recipes' to the brides who have come into our Midst and will mother and feed our` generations.

Many of our Halls are well kept and beautiful places for youth to gather in entertainment in , good company and the Lodge 92 brothers and sisters want their large group of young members to know that this Hall into which they put their heartS, time and money to build, is open to its youth, who they all love, to enjoy as they see fit, as long as it is in a decent and orderly fashion.

With good will and patience on both sides, these different age groups of meintie •s On work and play in the Lodge Hall in harmony and satisfaction to all colieertied: Our sincerest best wishes to all members of Lodge 92 for this progressive step in the right direction. May our lovely yonth,„giye you as much happiness in their good times as you give them in your, understanding and love.

There was once a poor' man whose wife died leaving him a daughter. The little girl's nome was Lenka. She was / good little girl, cheerful and obedient and very industrious, and she did all she could to make her father comfortable.

After some time the man married again. His second wife also had a little girl just Lenka's age. Her name was Doria. Doria was a lazy, ill-natured child, always quarreling and bickering.

Yet her mother thought Doria was perfeet and she was always praising her to her husband.

"See what a good child my Dorla is," she would say to him. "She works and spins and never says a cross word. Very different from your good-for-nothing Lenka who always breaks everything she touches and does nothing in return for all the good food she eats."

She never stopped nagging and scholding her poor stepchild and complaining about her to her husband.

Lenka was patient and went on quietly doing what was right, and she was always polite to her stepmother, and kind to her ill-natured stepsister.

She and Dorla used to go to spinning bees together. Dorla would play and waste her time and hardly fill one spindle. Lenka always worked industriously and usually filled two or three spools.

Yet, when the two girls got home, the mother always took Dorla's half filled spindle and said to her father. "See what beautiful yarn my Doria spins!" She would hide Lenka's spools and say: "Your Lenka did nothing but play and waste her time."

And before other people she talked the same way, pretending Dorla did everything that she didn't do and saying that goad industrious Lenka was lazy and good-for-nothing.

One night when the two girls were walking home together from a spinning bee, they came to a, ditch in the road.

Dorla jumped quickly across and then reached her hand back and said: "My dear sister, let me hold your spindle. You Tray fall and hurt yourself."

Poor Lenka, suspecting nothing unkind, handed Dorla her full spindle.

Doria took it and ran home and then boasted to her mother and her stepfather how much she had spun.

"Lenka" she said "has no yarn at all.

She did nothing but play and waste her time."

"You see," said the woman to her husband: "This is wihat I'm alv4ayls telling you but you never believe me.

That Lenka of yours is a lazy, good-fornothing girl who expects me and my

„1. 7day, .c.,!-eplember poor daughter to do all the work. I'm not going to stand her in the house any longer. Tomorrow morning she goes to make her own way in the world. Then perhaps she'll understand what a good home she's had with me."

The poor man tined to defend Lenka but his wife would hear nothing. Lenka must go and that was all there was to it Early the next morning while it was still dark the woman started Lenka off. she gave her a sack that she said was full of good meal and smoked meat and bread. But instead of meal she put in ashes, instead of smoked meat straw, and instead of bread stones.

"Here is meal and smoked meat and bread for your journey," she said. "You will be a long time finding ay., y , one who will be as good to you as have been! Now be off with you and never let me see you again, Let your father put you out in service if he can!"

The poor man , put his ax on his shoulder and started off with. Lenka. He had no place to take her and he hardly knew what to do. He led her off into the mountains, where he built her a little two-room hut. He was ashamed to tell her , that he was goineto leave her alone, so he said to her: "You stay here, my dear child, while I go farther into the forest and cut you some firewood."

But instead of cutting her firewood, he hung his mallet on a beech tree and whenever the wind blew, the mallet made a knocking sound. All afternoon poor little Lenka hearing the knock-knock of the mallet thought to herself: "There is my dear father chopping wood for me."

When evening came and he hadn't returned, Lenka went out to find him, but all she could find was the mallet going knock-knock on the tree. Then the , poor girl realized that her father had deceived her but she forgave him, for she knew that it was her stepmother's fault.

She went back to the little hut to get her supper, but when she opened the sack her stepmother had given her, instead of meal and smoked meat and bread, she found only ashes and straw and stones. Then indeed did Lenka feel deserted and sitting down she cried with lonliness and hunger.

While she was crying an old beggar with a long beard came into the hut.

"God grant you happiness, my child," he said.

"May He grant you the same, old father." Lenka said, standing up and bowing politely.

"Thank you, my child, thank you. And now will you be so kind as to wash my

Wednesday, September is, 1.951 face and give me a bite of supper."

"Indeed, old father, I'd gladly wash your face and give you food but there's no water here and nothing to carry it in. And as for food, my stepmother filled the sack with ashes, straw and stones."

"That's nothing, my child. Just go behind the but and you will find a spring."

Lenka went and there, sure enough. was a clear bubbling spring and on the ground beside it was a bucket. She filled the bucket and carried it back to the hut.

As she entered the door she could hardly believe her ' eyes, for on the wall she saw a row of shining plates, big plates and little plates, and cups, and everything else that ought to be in a kitchen. The old beggar had got as fire started, so Lenka at once put on water to boil.

"Look in the sack," the beggar said Lenka untied the sack again and here is was full of fine meal and bread and smoked meat!

So now Lenka, lost no time in preparing a good stepper. Then she washed the old beggar's face and hands and together they ate. After supper Lenka spread out her ragged clothes on the floor of the inner room and put the beggar in there for the night. She herself stretched out on the kitchen bench.

It was a hard bed but Lenka made no complaint and presen t ly she fell asleep.

At midnight there was a. knocking at the door and a voice called out: "A -man am I Six inches high, But a long, long beard Hangs from my .chin.

Open the door And let me in!"

Lenka jumped down and opened the door and there before her stood a tiny dwarf with a long beard.

He was Long Beard who lived in the mountains and of whom Lenka had often heard stories.

He came in dragging after him a heavy hag of golden ducats.

"I was that old heggar," he said, "whose face you washed and with whom you shared your supper. These ducats are to reward you for your kindness.

Now go into your bedroom and lie down comfortably."

As he said this he vanished.

Lenka went int her bedroom and there, instead of her few rags on the floor, was a fine feather bed and coverlets and a painted chest full of clothes. Lenka lay down on the featherbed and instantly fell asleep.

On the third day her father came, supposing by that time Lenka had eith-

er died of hunger or been devoured by wild beasts.- At least, he thought, he would gather together her bones.

But when he reached the but he rubbed his eyes in surprise. Instead of the rough hut, there was a pretty little cottage and instead of a handful of bones there was a happy girl singing away at her spinning.

"My daughter, my daughter!" he cried, "How are you?"

"Very well, dear father. You couldn't have found a better place for me."

She told him how happy she was and how pleasantly she passed the time away, spinning and singing and working.

Then she took a table cloth and filled it with golden ducats and gave it to So he went away very happy, thanking God for the good fortune that had come to Lenka.

As he neared home, the old dog that lay at the door said to the stepmother: "Bow-wow, mistress, here conies the master. It's chink-chink the money before him and chink-chink the money behind him!"

"Not so, old dog!" ste stepmother cried, "It's rattle-rattle bones before him and rattle-rattle bones behind him!"

Now when the man came into the cottage he said: "Wife, give me a. basket and let me empty this tablecloth."

"What!" she cried. "Do you expect me to give you a basket for your daughter's bones?"

But he began to chink the golden ducats and then she got a basket fast enough.

When she had all the ducats safely put away she said:

per. After she had eaten every bite of it herself, she lay down on the bed and went soundly to sleep.

At midnight Long Beard knocked at the door and called out: "A man am I Six inches high, But a long, long beard Hangs from my chin.

Open the door And let me in!"

Then. Dorla was very frightened and she hid in the corner. Long Beard broke open the door and he caught Dorla and he shook her out of her skin. It served her right, too, for she was a wicked, spiteful girl, and she had 'never been kind to anybody in her life.

Long Beard left her bones int heap on the floor, and he hung her '''skin on the nail at the back of the door. Then he put her grinning skul in the window.

On the third day Dorla's mother gave her husband a brand new table-cloth and said: "Go now and see how my Dorlae4s getting on. Here is a table-cloth fer'tlie ducats."

So the man took the table-cloth and went to the mountains. As sc came to the hut, he saw something in the window that looked like grinning teeth. He said to himself: ..

"Dorla must be very happy to smiling at me from thus distance."

But when he reached the but all he found a. Dorla was a heap of belies on the floor, the skin hanging on the nail behind the door, and the skull grinning in the window.

Without a word he gathered the borie$ into the table-cloth and started bad: As be neared home the old dog said:, "Bow-wow, mistress, here comes lithe master and it's rattle-rattle before 'hire and rattle-rattle behind him."

Agnes Janes John Junek John Bravenec • HEALTH The following definition of health is transcribed from the Magna Carta of the World Health Organization: "The following principles are basic to the happiness, the harmonious relations, and the security of all peoples: Health is a condition of full physical, mental, and social well-being hot Merely the absence of illness or disease." (The text of who goes on to mention the principies concerned with the rights and duties relative to health).

A cursory self-questioning is enough for one to discern the perfection of that definition and induce meditation on the need of bringing together, for the in.. dividual t oenjoy perfect helath, the physical, mtatal, and social elements of health.

One of these elements, however, the fullness of mental well-being, stands paramount as the most important of all three, since it includes the power to minimize physical suffering and all but dissolve the suffering of social maladjustnient.

The number One enemy of Mental health is insecurity. The number one cause of insecurity is in the order 01 economics, because money buys the remedies required for physical hetilth and money helps the individual to obtain his social well-being.

As a general rule, every individual earns money but not all individUals know how to use their money wisely.

Although a dollar bill is made of paper, it actually possesses elastic qualities and the extent of its pay-ability depends on the way it is managed. The quality of farsightedness points out the true way to Manage money; therefore, the farsightedness that provides for the future guides us assuredly to the enjoyment of perfect health on the physical, the moral, and the social levels. )• 4 • —Every Member secure a Member-

Thirty Days Behind The Iron Curtain

By Mrs. Betty Jurica (CONTINUED) Sliac springs were already known in Ancient times. The oldest written records date from the 15th century from the Papal emissary Aeneas Sylvius. The modern spa buildings equipped with every comfort and located in the beautifully laid-out spa park, contributed to the complete comfort of the guests.

Ponds separated by well kept paths and plots provide a peaceful atmosphere for the patients.

Five mineral springs spout forth from the earth. The water from the chief of these, the "Koupely'"', fills two pools and is used for taking baths, the water from the other springs is used for drinking uses. (Juste don't care for this kind of water). The main spring is characterized by its high carbon dioxide content and isothermal natural temperature.

The other springs, although not far from each other differ in temperature and chemical composition.

The following methods of cure are used: Natural Carbon baths, drinking cure, inhalations, electro-therapy and packs with mud.

June 23. On this Sunday morning the sun. was shining bright and we were all anxious to get to Bratislava. About 9:00 o'clock we, stopped at a village ((don't know the name) and all got out of the bus. Then we noticed that many young girls were dressed in white and they all were going to church that was on a hill.

This church was very beautifully built.

Pictures were taken of the girls and also of. women dressed in black. Most of us decided to walk up to the church and see what was going on. This was the Stinday "Bozi Telo" was celebrated.

The church was surrounded by beautiful large trees and the cobble-stoned church yard with an altar outside. Several from the group attended services and the rest of us were busy taking pictures. After the services were over, the whole church congregation walked through the village and the girls in white (druzicky) threw rose petals on the ground, and the priests followed these girls. I took several pictures of this in color and they all are good. The men all were in one group and the women in another, and many of the women were dressed dressed in black pleated skirts, black blouses, head scarfs on their heads, black boots, some had aprons and all of them carried rosaries.

By noon we arrived at Nitra at Hotel Stalingrad, here we had lunch in the

spacious dining room and. again were ready to go on.

In mid afternoon we stopped at Modra. , a small town. Here we visited a ceramic factory, and were shown how ceramics were made from clay. All of the work is done by hand, including the paintings on the ceramics. After the article is formed it is put into an oven at 1000 degree to bake, than it is taken out and painted, than glazed etc. Modra ceramics are very pretty, and all of us had a chance to buy pieces here.

We reached Bratislava at five o'clock that evening at Hotel Revin. It was several hours till supper, so to spent the time away, my sister and I took a walk by the river Danube.

Bratislava is the old capital of Slovakia, situated at the foot of the Little Carpathians on the bank of the Danube. The Dauion port and the vineyards add special charm to the city.

Among its memorable buildings, there is the Gothic church, the Town Hall, Old palaces and the lovely castle. The Danube flows very fast and has excursion boats on it for pleasure rides.

The countryside is set out with vineyards. There are acres and acres of these and at this time we were there, the farmers were spraying the plants to protect them from insects, this is done after every rain.

June 24. At 8:30 in the morning a guide from Cedok and 15 of us went shopping in Bratislava. Of course the time was limited and we did'nt buy much. Some of the ladies bought hand made laces, linens, etc. I bought two blouses that I wouldn't trade for anything. One is Orchid and the other is blue and has cut-work on them. Than all of us went to the Post Office, as we all had letters and cards to mail home.

Our next visit was to a dairy farm.

Most of us were disgusted with this, so we didn't stay long. From here we \vent through the town of Breclov, a charming lively small town in wine growing Southern Moravia.

In late evening' we came to Lednice, a castele with a large park and palm hot-houses. In the hot house we were in, the. flowers all had such large blossoms as I have never seen before. Ferns of all description, palm, and ivy were in the hot- houses, and the climate inside was tropical, no wonder the plants were so beautiful. Palms in Czechoslovakia are only potted because in the winter they are carried indoors.
