Rodi6e, jeji byli sanaolni a vaSeni ale RUL'na nikdy se jinn nevychioubala.

Nesakladala si na s ySich Satech, ae mela je vScly z dobre lat,ky a ykusne u•Site, nozakladala si na sve krase, ad opravdu byla beska, nepygnila se svYmi vedomost mi, ac Ye skole sko •o vse uniela.

Nikdy se nechlubila, a nevypravovala o svem unrCni, cifivtipli a zruenosti s myslem, ahy od jinYcli elavalena, neb ohclivoy ana byla.

Nikdy se netlaella do Ve hole nikdy neclvaa yleteti prvni ze dveri a v obehode eekala, al na ni dojde rada.

JestliSe jr nekdo ban,e1 nebo tre.stal, prijinaala ham]. nebo tre:• mleky a sa,-, naa sebe v duChu pir,vecieovala ,ze si toho zaslouSi. JestliSe j; Hekdo chvalii, se ;ddoperiYma oeima pLijala poehvalu zkomnala, je-li ji opravdu hodna.

Neza,videla byl-li nOkdo jin.Sr Chvalen nebo yyzriamenan a nep.,:ala jinemu ze Mc.odolibosti trestu nebo -pohany.

Kdyz nektere dite neco vyvedlo, neodsuzovala ho hied, nYbrz vzpom.inala si, kdy zase . neeo vykonalo clobreho a bylo7 li tal-tak skalene, ze_-nikdy nic dobreho nevykonalo, co by stalo za zminku, jeU6

Ve stfeclu, dne 30, fijna 1957 ho apine neodsuzovala, ale modlila se za ne.

Pokora a skromnost kra glily Rriaenku lepe neg drahokamy — kaadk ji mel rad.

Blaaena byla z jineho testa.

Velice si zakladala na svkch rodidich, zamoanosti, gatech, krase, umeni a dovednosti.

Nad jive deti se vyvySrivala, je odstrkovala a na v'Sechny strany pichala — jakc bodlak.

Byla panovita. Nafukovala se a sebevedome se rozhliaela kolem. Myslila si, ze je lepM ne g ostatni, a ze ostatni jsou jen proto na svete, aby ji mporoudela.

Ve tficie chtela bkti prvni a kdykoliv sleena odchazela a chtela aby nekdo zatim delal ve tilde dozorce a neposedy zapsal na tabuli k teto aloze se vadycky vettela Blagena. Nesmirne ji lahodilo, kdy dostala nad jinYmi pray° ,mohla se stupinku na ne shliieti a je zapisovati.

Dam' chuclAimi a merle chytOmi opo vrhovala.

Veskole stale se jen hlasila, chtela ukazati sve umeni, vzbuditi domnenku, kdy se hlasi, ze taky umi, a zatim mnohdy, kdy opravdu byla vyvolana, neumela.

Byla neastupna, drza a doterna.

Mela-li donesti batik na poati, nebo vabec vykonati nejakou praci, kterou ji nak jen slualca konala, stydela se za ni.

Byla nespokojena, jestliae ji stale nechvalili a nevyznamenavali.

Last Warning f or Our Halloween Youngsters "We want our youngsters to be a treat and not a trick to drivers," "In the first place, they must see, and see well. Many false faces limit the vision of anyone wearing one — makes it hard to see approaching cars. I strongly advise parents to help the kids disguise their faces by using makeup. Rouge, lipstick and eyebrow pencil can do an amazing job of painting weird and funny faces on freckle-faced and rosy-cheeked boys and girls."

We would like to appeal to parents to see to it that the youngsters wear costumes made of light-colored or reflectorized material. These precautions aid drivers in seeing the trick-or-treaters, should they dart into the streets.

"Actually. the best Halloween traffic accident prevention is to keep children off the street at night," "Of course, this is not an easy thing to do. But parents can get together and arrange indoor parties at community centers or in their homes. Those parties will keep our make-believe spooks from taking the chance of becomming honest-to-goodness ghosts." ) • at The United States Information Agency is faced with a sharp slash of its budget and has started to curtail its program.

District II Holds Its Meeting In Holland, Texas Lodge Tyrs 80 of Holland, Texas was host to all the lodges in District II, ad guests in an all day District Meeting, Sunday, October 20, 1957.

The Editor and Wife covered this District II Meeting, as requested. As a throwback from former farming days, your editor is an early riser, so we started for this meeting early Sunday morning to get there in plenty of time to off-set any delays that might arise on the thip. The morning was brisk and the day promised to be beautiful so our early morning ride was pleasant.

We arrived in Holland early, so we swerved off the highway that by passes the town proper to see what Holland really looked like. Being Sunday, most of the town was closed but we did get to see the buildings and judging from the ornate brickwork some of the buildings were old but in excellent state of repair. Parked at the curb in Holland we visualived the farm trade and the typical Saturday bustle here and there. We decided to visit the C.M.B. Church and found the folks gathering for Sunday School. Though small, it was very neat and trim. We enjoyed paying our respects to this fine group of brethren.

As we arrived at the Lodge Hall, like all gatherings everywhere, the cooks were already hard at it, getting the noon meal started.

The folks were long in assembling so we had ample time to welcome the August Kacirs, the O. Hanuses, who came in with the Simciks from Lodge Linden Hall 66, Waco, Brother Charles Cerny of San Antonio and his group of folks; Sisters Holy, Hobert and Brother C. Saza ysky of District Seven. Brothers Marek, Navratil and later Brother Kellha, represented the Supreme lodge. Our Brother Joe B. Hejny is still ill with the flu.

Meeting was called to order by President Brother Hejl at 11:00 am. and immediately the business at hand — that of reading of the minutes of the last meeting by District Secretary Brother B. Mikolaj were read and approved as read. Then following the reports of the various District committees and of our District Director Navratil.

Brother Navratil listed the top organizers in his district who in the last nine months secured $141,500 of insurance, which represented, 109 new men:.bers for the lodges in the District, placing this District fourth in the state. It was quite an impressive record. No wonder Brother Charlie Cerny of the Seventh District and San Antonio, wanted to entice some of these organizers to move into his dis-

trict! Of the 34 organizers in this Dis- practice, Sister Hejl, more of our sisters trict, 27 participated in this nine month should speak in public. drive.

It is noteworthy to stop for a moment Br.

As hathrough individual donations as well as ed in their announcements, published in lodge projects, proceeds which went to our Vestnik, the contest was open to swell the $100,000 coffer which our S.P. the youth of District II for articles made J.S.T.

Bro- ing etc. There were two divisions: The ther Navratil informed us that the Rest Junior Division for youth under 12 years Home will be ready for occupancy next of age and the Senior Division for those month, possibly by December 1, and will over 12. As the articles were bro ght in be partially furnished "We still lack a by the contestants, each was even a lot of money," Brother Navratil stated. number and placed on the to le for "We lack some $12,000 in the building viewing.

In all we need about $65,000 then the names filled in, just who won.

"We are planning a New Year's Day program -- a Minstrel Show. For Febauary a Valentines Party. March has a St. Patrick's Party scheduled. April an April Fool's Day Party or Easter Hunt.

May is, the month of Mother's Day with June as Father's Day prog,ranos. July a Fourth of July Party. August a Hay Ride or Swimming Party. September, we didn't catch and forgot to clear). icor October there will be a Hallowe'en incidentally, they are planning a Haluee'en Party this year too, and cordially invited us all to come and see what they are going to do.) Then in November there will ba a Thanksgiving Lunch or Supper and December its Christmas Party.

The talent contest wasn't too long to be tiring and very interesting and appreciated. by the assembly. From the Wiest Linda Lesikar, who courageously told the Talent Show Judge, Brother Charlie Cerny that she was three years old (showing on her fingers) and who sang "Around the World." in perfect pitch which on her a prize, to the locely lass who played the accordian "Gathering Flowers for the Lord's Bouquet," in her pale green net formal, the program was lovely.

The skit of three youngsters in Czech who won a prize and ovation for its humor and the memorizing or these young folks of the Czech, for it could be ascertained by their pronunciation that they didn't speak it often.

Especially worthy of mention was young Ralph Bilek who played our Czech songs on his accordian so wonderfully and exceptionally well. He is a truly talented. youngster and very obligingly gave us an encore at the end. of the program. Lawrence 'Welk should. hear of you, Ralph!

Brother Charlie Cerny then introduced each contestant-winner over the "mike" and pointedly asked them if they were members of our SPJST. Some were and others wouldn't say or said they didn't know. It brought home the point vividly to the Organizers in this District where to go for new members.

Brother Cerny suggested that they ask their Dad about a SPJST Educational Policy. Consolation prizes were then given to each child. who was on the Talent Show as well as the Handicraft Contest and who did not get a prize.

The Talent Judges were Otto Hanus, Charlie Cerny, Charles Saza ysky, Ed-

,,ter Hobort of ward Kovar Antonio.

Brother Marek also pinch hitting for our Veep Brother Joe B. Belay who is still ill with the flu and who is also in charge of state Youth Activities talked to the assembly on Youth.

In answer to Sister Hejl's suggestion that a State Youth Director on the Sup reme Lodge Level be appointed to aid in this work altogether, Brother Marek said: "There is not much the office of the Supreme Lodge can do to better the program. Sister Hejl has a program outlined for he whole coming year and I think it would be sensible to copy her lead as she has already included the outstanding holidays in the year.

We have passed a resolution to set the way to carry the Youth Program on. It is a big job and we want to do it right."

Brother March said.

"The purpose of our gatherings in our District Meetings are that we all get together and mutually solve the problems that befall us and that we mutually decide on things that are foremost in our SPJST. The foremost in our mind is that we have fraternal order and in that order we so enact ourselves as to bring our youth in our midst and to do everything in our power to give them a chance to prove to us that they are capable if you are but willing. If you are willing to extend a hand. of fellowship, we will all find that they are always there not only that they do their part but we will find that our youth are ever ready and capable — we know that from our work here as fraternalists. We are all fraternalists. If it were not so, we would not be here this afternoon," said Brother Marek.

He went on to refer to fraternaliSts as Jobes as in Biblical days the question "Are we our brother's keepers?" and its answer, "We are our brother's keepers."

"We love to say that we are over 100 years old; especially the Czech settlers in the United States, some of whom are here over a century. We also know that fraternalism is a Jobe, for old central European history would back us that it was the maritime people who then formed. to protect one another against losses in the sea. They were the middle class and the lower classes for then the classes were segregated. Delving further into history, Brother Marek informed us that it was the Guilds of England that gave us an equal footing.

"We recognize each of us as a brother and Sister and it is just that we really do so in our dealings ineveryday life.

"The few that met in LaGrange in 1897 to form our fraternity that finally outgrew even their remotest ideas and dreams, that started with no cash re-

serve, whatsoever, to pass the nine million dollar mark today, is a credit to all of us who work as a unit, worked as a looge, as a representat i ve and the Supreme Lodge. In thousands of instances, the SPJST has been a "blessing" to people who were members, in fact, that these with whom they worked for many years in the field came in to their call of distress and sorrow. Here for the Czechs in the state of Texas, the SPJST was one source of bringing us together so that united there would be strength and that in this way better conditions in the community and nation. As long as we can maintain this attitude here today and in this nation, there will always be a democratic nation and no man shall dare to change it.

Brother Marek then called attention to this afternoon's program as bting a source of bringing out the best in our Youth "Youth must be guided, it will not be restrained. Youth will find their own Problems and will find them easier if they will be guided with kind hands and warm hearts. In the hands of our trained youth the democracy of man is saved," stated. Brother Marek.

He then read from a statement read at the National Frateraal Congress in Los Angeles: We are always worried about the youth but never worry about the adult who caused it all. If each one would. take one youth under guidance and then another youth n,..-xt year, in the third year there would be enough to go around and there would. be no delinquency. In onr experience throughout the United States, we have never found a deliquent youth whose source could not be traced to the adult involvement."

Brother Marek read.

Then Brother Marek bid our young people, those on the high school level whose responsibility of citizenship were just around he corner to learn the Ten Commandments, the Bill of Rights, to read. the Constitution of the United States and learn '.ts meaning and to delve into the affairs of their respective communities and counties and state affairs. Do it today!" concluded Brother Marek.

Brother March's lengthy speech was not taken in its entirety but it was very informative and interesting. Brother Hejny, your brother did. a good j ob of pinch hitting for you!

In talking to the townsmen in the lodge, it was evident that these hardworking and thrifty people were perfectly happy in Holland and that they would rather live there than any other place on earth. It must be a wonderful feeling to be content with life in its small town place, oblivious to the hurry

Wednesday,- October 10, 1951 and scurry of a agitated world about them, to be happy with simple but a wholesome way of life, their toil with the soil, their neat and trim modest homes, their little church which is the nucleus of their community, their lodge for the protection of life and property.

Certainly this sort of happiness leads to longevity of life. They are to be envied.

It was a real pleasure to meet Brother and Sister Martinets whose daughterin-law, Billie, a registered nurse and instructor in the School of Nursing at Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas where the Editor's wife also worked and who is also a SPJST member. Sister Billie Martinets has c ontributed Home Nursing articles to out Vestnik.

It was also a real pleasure to meet so many old friends, and make our acquaintance of new ones, we shall long remember the nice meeting we all had at the Lodge Tyrs Hall in Holland, Texas.

District Winner's Banquet

VtSTRIE' — WEST,

Let's Give Credit To Our Good Workers In the Czech section of this issue you will find a picture of our Sister Clara Hejl, Youth Director of District II of our SPJST Fraternal Order.

Sister Hejl is truly one of our leaders in the Youth Movement for as you will note if you will read the English Section in this issue, she not only had an outstanding Handicraft Contest and Talent Show at the Meeting in Holland of this District, but she mapped out a schedule of Youth Activities for the coming year, which she volunteered to share with any other District Youth Director in our Order.

Sister Hejl is a school teacher by profession and her pupils love her for her sunny disposition and understanding.

She in turn has left her mark upon their character in that she has taught those in her class who wished to do so, to crochet. They all love her and can't wait to get into her class, so that she can teach them. When they have mastered this art, any of her present and. former pupils can take any printed crochet instruction and make anything they desire to beautify their homes and to make gifts.

The whole SPJST is proud of our District II Youth Director and sincerely congratulate that District for having such a pearl in their midst.

Our best wishes to you Sister Hejl.

To Our Youth Clubs Everywhere

Children's. Youth Club Waco, Texas DEAR YOUTH DIRECTORS OF DISTRICT III Halloween, October 31st, is soon approaching. We find it such a grand time to plan a party for the youth and hope your lodge will plan something for this occasion. There are so many games that are fun for the young, and the adults tco. Decorations are inexpensive and with a little thought and planning Haloween parties can be so much fun.

We want to urge each Lodge in District III to select a youth leader. We hope the lodge officers will work with the youth leaders and encourage them in their work in planning programs that would be of interest to the youth.

We will appreciate having the names and addresses of all the Youth Leaders of each Ladge in District III as soon as they have been selected. We have some information which might be of some help and as soon as we get a mailing list we will be happy to forward the information to you.

Fraternally yaurs,

The picture above is a likeness of our young friend, James Janousek, good sport, and I hink also one of the Youth Leaders of our Dallas Lodge No. 84. Let me tell you something about him. At the age of six, he became a member of our Fraternity, that was in 1947 so that makes him 16 now. But he really knows his way around. He sure does!

In 1956 he entered the SPJST Essay Contest and won first prize. He put his ideas into action and — boy o' boy, out of 35 teenagers he contacted, 30 were interested enough to join with him.

He as the leader and 14 teenagers came to the meeting of Lodge No. 84 and asked to start a Teenage Club. Permission was granted by the Mother Lodge 84 and the Teenage Club held its first meeting September 23, 1956. James was elected First President—What do you think of that?

About Our Health AUSTIN — Those twin menaces — cancer and heart disease — hung up a grim new record for the number of Texans killed last year, a final tabulation of death statistics shows.

Of a grand total of 69,671 deaths from all causes during 1956, almost half were due either to heart disease or to cancer.

Heart disease killed 22, 888 while cancer claimed 10, 168.

While the number of cancer deaths has increased perceptably in the past three years, the increase has little significance. The rate of deaths from cancer in Texas is still well befow the rate r the United States as a whole. This state registered 112 deaths froaitancer fer each 100,000 population, while the rate for the rest of the nation was 146 deaths per 100,000 population.

The disparity between the Texas and U.S. cancer death rate is probably due to the fact that Texas has a younger population. Cancer is a. disease that usually strikes people past 50 years of age. Of the 10,000 cancer deaths last year, 8213 of them were avamong persons past the half-century mark.

Increases in the number of persons, . dying of heart disease is becoming bitterly significant. For instance, almost 1,800 more persons died from this cause during 1956 than died in 1955.

Most of the increase is in the age. group 55 end over. And therein lies the irony: normal life span has been lengthened to an age when heart disease has a field day.

The same reason — longer life spans -- is obviously behind the remarkable gain in the United States death rate from heart afflictions. 15,000 more Americans died of heart disease last year than died in 1955.

As life expectancy continues to in crease, more and more people are going to fall victims to heart disease. And although this fate cannot be avoided, it can be delayed. Here is a simple fourpoint regimen for staving it off as long as possible.

1. Reduce the tension of "modern living," and . get moderate exercise. A non-strenious hobby is beneficial.

2. Eliminate excessive weight that taxes you heart. Do not overeat.

3. If you sa-oke, cut your consurnpCon of cigarettes to less than a pack daily. Smoking constricts the flow of blood and places an extra load on the heart.

4. Above all, see your family physician at least once annually for a thorough physical examination.

Also, from Chicago, the bride's mother, Mrs. Henry Banfi, and daughter Annette, Mrs. Obidowicz and daughter, Carole, Mrs. Bessie Polasek and. Oklahoma City, Mrs. Benny Pavey. Jerry is the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Milan Sr. of Ft. Worth and the brides' parents are Mr. and Mrs. Henry Banfi of Chicago. The young couple will live in Austin.

We are very glad that Mrs. Anna Svitak is at home and much inproved after being hospitalized for serveral. weeks.

Please don't forget the regular Sokol meeting on Sunday, October 27th at 3 p. m. I'm sure all of you will want to keep up with the holiday festivities we'll be discussing form now on. How about a Halloween party with our SPJ ST? Sincerely, Mrs. Fred (Maxine) Merlick EDITOR'S NOTE: This letter received too, late for last week's issue. ) • al. • TO THE YOUTH Dear Readers of District 7 Will write a few lines in regard of the District 7. meeting which was held Sunday, October 13 at H and H Hall in Jourdanton. The host was Lodge 161 of Jourdanton.

A large crowd gathered at this meeting and our Supreme Lodge SPJST was well represented. Also the Editor, Brother Hosek and his wife, Anna. We were glad to have them with us on this occasion. Also there were several guests from other districts, will not start mentioning them, for I don't remember all that were present.

At noon a delicious lunch was served which consisted of bar-be-eueed beef, sausages, beans, potato salad, kolaches, etc. Everything, was just fine, as it could be seen that the waiting line had no ending.

I want to thank all the Youth of District 7 for their fine talent and cooperation. Am sory that several participants could not come on account of the flu.

I noticed that two of the participants had a crying spell, because they made a mistake in their part. Never let on that you have made a mistake and act like nothing has happened. I didn't notice the mistakes and I'm sure rest of the folks didn't either. Even if you youth make errors, what's the difference, I'd rather see you try with a mistake, than not at all. A perfectone has to be born yet, so let's go on as we area Anyway, I think that the youth of district 7 is

just as good as any other district. There were several in the group that were in l a program of this sort for the first time and I would like to see all of these again at the next district meeting which will be held in Floresville in the spring. Never say "I can't" but "I'll try."

Youth has to be helped by the parents. Urge your children to take part in programs such as these. Some seem to think that I issue parts for these programs, but they are wrong and I don't I think that I have a right to. On such occessions I'm asking for volunteer talent, and not written parts issued by me. So came on youth of district 7, and show the Brothers and Sisters of the district what you can do. I enjoyed being with you at Jourdanton and am looking forward to seeing all of you in the s%ring.

I would like for you that took Oart in the program to' drop me a card with your address. Please!

Will write more at a later date on matters concerning and organizing a Youth Club at Lodge 56, here in Corpus Christi, Texas.

Fraternally, Mrs. Betty Jurica Rt. 2, , Box 899 ( + LODGE NO. 47 Seaton, Texas Dear Brothers and Sisters: With all these rains and floods, and a school carnival, and all the other things to do, seem like I just can't seem to find time to get a letter to the Vestnik.

At our last meeting, we tabled a motion on organizing a Youth Club.

A nominating committee of Sister Clara Hejl, Edwin Chaloupek, and Theodore Dana were appointed. There will be election of officers in the November meeting.

We are happy to have as new member Darryl Wayne Divis.

There will be a Hallogeen Party for the Youth at Lodge No. 47, October 31. You can come in costume if you like.

We attended the district meeting in Holland Sunday afternoon, and enjoyed the program very much only I wish we had more young people to participate, in the handicraft and talent. Seem like as many lodges as we have in the district, there should be more. Of course this was the first meeting of that sort.

I'm sure the next one will be more and better.

and,

The gardens in West are really smiling now after those rains. The little vegetable seedlings are really shooting op. Your editor sure is going to eat a lot of Swiss Chard this winter for every seed seems to have come through! The whiiie sweet Alyssum in my garden has surely perked up and doing me proud. Even the deep purple petunias which I pruned rather severely from their rambling state this summer are flowering again.

It t , hard to resist ordering everything in those beautiful color catalogues and one can easily fall into a state of having too many beds and plants to care fore when weeding time comes around.

It is a temptation I haveto fight all the tin- a for after all, my garden plays second fiddle to the Vestnik sometimes and the work connected with our lodge meetings when necessary.

The last issue of the Vestnik listed several lodges , giving Hallowe'en Parties for their Youths. Hallowe'en has alans meant good time for youngsters in America. How we used to prepare for it.

We would cut out black cats, witches on brooms, qack-o-lanterns from orange paper in school and take them home to use on our Hallowe'en costumes. Our parties that our mothers gave for the neighborhood youngsters would include candies apples, popcorn and the teenpunch of fruit juice became "Witches Brew - on this occasion. We would then go in groups through the night around our neighborhood blowing horns and rattling rattles, only the older boys who were bored with such "kid stuff" would look for more excitment than the costumes and masks and bedlam. They lifted. gates from their hinges on fences to put them up in a tree with Fido's house, or haul some heavy outhouse out into the street to a cross road. Outside of moving things about, there was no destruction. Of course even then the irate inan of the house used to fume at having to get things out of trees and place them back where they belonged.

Today we grandparents look forward to Hallowe'en only to see the little "spooks" tin-Adly knock at our door and yell -trick or treat' when we open,them.

Of course, they all tromp inside in their Hallowe'en regalia and help themselves to some offer candy or cookies and with a polite "Thank You" tromp back out to some adult lurking out of sight.

We think of our own grandchildren and hope that too are getting a "bang" out of this night of nights when all of spookdom is turned loose.

I hope you girls are all reading the travelogues in the Vestnik written by Olt?• two Sisters, Mrs. Betty Jurica and (\oliss Naomi Kostora. IP you axe, you can

now see that the Texas Delegation parted in Czechoslovakia to take two separate tours. Both of these ladies are doing a wonderful job of writing their impressions and experiences. Both of these ladies are born in America, I believe, and that makes the writing all the more interesting. We would like to pouse here and now to apologize to Sister Betty Jurica for obmitting one serial of her trip. Inadvertently her series had already been set up to run and somehow got taken out in reshuffling the space and was completely left out.

We are sorry, Betty.

Dear Rose Helweg, it was so nice hearing from you again, and thanks for the tickets on that quilt. It would be most appreciated if I did win it. I hope your health continues to improve and I'll remember you in my prayers to that effect. Bless you!

We have another charming sister who writes a very interesting letter from whom we have not heard in a long time, out Seymour way, the very nice Mrs. Ed. Haisler. She's the Youth Director for that District and I believe she teaches school, too, as does our Sister Clara Hejl in District II. Nonetheless, she writes such nice letters and our SPJST family would like hearing from that section of Texas again. — They really had a nice District Meeting in Seymour when it was my privilege to meet sister Haisler. Brother Fred Kveton is their District 4 Organizer. Brother Kveton — the harvest is all in now, how about letting us hear from you, if you're still among the living!

We thought of our home Lodge 92 in Fort Worth, last Sunday while covering the District II Meeting in Holland.

This Lodge 92 was having initiation of new membersand a Bazaar which we would have liked to attended. Lodge 92 always has such nice meetings, it's a pleasure to go to them. I'm delightel that the Youth Club is being organized for they have so many tallented youngsters who do so wonderfully under the guidance of Sister Flora Koci (another school teacher) and her capable assistants. There is a large membership of youngsters in Lodge 92 and when they get organized they can set the pace to the Dallas Lodge 84 group. Our sincerest best wishes to your success Lodge 92.

The flu has finally infiltrated our schools and many towns have had to close down their schools completely until the epidemic subsides. With our present day wonder drugs available, our doctors are able to keep the sufferer safe from the danger of death as was the case when the flu struck this country after World War I. when deaths from it were common,

I hope that you Texas girls aren't stricken with this fin, and that those of you who may have it, see a doctor immediately so that your chances for a quick recovery are assured.

My best wishes to you for a nice weekend, I am THE EDITOR'S WIFE ) • 40 • (

There will be an election of officers held and other important blIsiness transacted among other things we will decide whether the lodge will contribute flowers when a member dies; or will we donate this amount to the SPJST "Rest Home" in their memory instead?

After the meeting there will be a lunch and the ladies are asked to bring something as usual good to eat. Many thanks to them.

Let us all come to this meeting on November 10, 1957.

This year again we are planning to have the same.

Our sisters are kindly asked to bring the eats, and the brothers will see to it that we have .something with which to wash it down.

It is very important and urgent that as many of you come to this meeting as possible, and in the meantime be thinking of who you would elect as your president, because I want to step out now and let someone younger take over.

Of course, I am speaking for myself only when I say that after the age of 60 a person does not have much business running the affairs of so many younger members.

During the time that I was a member of the good old SPJST I have served at least 35 years in some lodge office, so I think it is time for me to have some rest. I believe it would look real nice to see some young faces at the "steering wheel" of our Lodge.

Wednesday, October 30, 1957 So remember to come to our November meeting — that is the second Sunday (Nov. 10th) in November at one o'clock in the afternoon.

Come, do your duty and at the same time spend a pleasant evening.

We are all pleased to have our member, Sister Emma Ceska, as Youth Director of District III. She expressed the opinion that Brother Hejny's letter urging all the Lodges to work on the Youth Program was real encouragement.

We had a first-hand demonstration of what our young people can do given guidance and a chance. During the meeting, there was no running around distracting the attention of the older members. Why? Our Youth Director had provided the young members with paper, crayons and sugge4tions for making decorations for the Halloween Party which followed our regular meeting.

Theywored quitelY all thrjough the meeting and then surprised all of us with the decorations they produced and placed around the hall.

It was announced that the annual Christmas Party for all members would be held on Saturday night, December 14th. Any member having suggestions about this party is asked to contact a member of the Entertainment Committee.

The Lodge voted to furnish one room at the Rest Home.

A large number of new members were initiated by President Ed Mazanec. As the circle of members was formed the young members sang, "The Eyes of Texas" directed by Sister Ceska.

"Happy Birthday" was sung to the

Strang 25 following members: Sister Minnie Narovec, Sister Hattie Casper, Sister Lena Reznicek, Brother Tony Mazanec, Brother Frank Chamrad, Brother Otto Hanus, Brother Cervenka, Sister Lucille Martion Sister Barbara Walla, and Sister Irene Koen.

Our sincere sympathy to Sister Cervenka on the loss of her brother.

Your correspondent has learned since the meeting that the mothers or Brothers Frank and Roman Parma is ill and confined to the hospital. We hope that she will be niuch improved by the time this is printed and will soon be up and around again.

Wednesday, October 30 1957 WHAT OUR TEENAGERS HAVE TO SAY:Many of the most devoted and "enlightened' parents iitake the least effective ones. That; at lcasi, is what members of a House education subcommittee must be turning over in their minds after listening to some touring teen-agers whom htey asked on the spur of the moment of give them advice on juvenile delinquency.

These youngsters certainly punctured some myths cherished by a lot of doting moms and dads. But the acting head of the United States Children's Bureau, who was present says: These youngsters are making the same points we have arrived at after years of study ----only better.

Youngsters don't rebel at discipline; they do rebel at inconsistency—overleniency now, strictness then. Many parents either do everything to keep their children odcupied and then suddenly turn them loose on their own as teenagers, or they encourage small children to "let off steam" but arc shocked when as teen-agers they do this after sitting daily for hours in school.

Other parents have provided. "readymade" occupations for their children so completely that as teen-agers, With no practice in thinking up thins for themselves, they just hang around .drug stores or go -riding. Children crave time to just sit and read, listen to music.

An exchange pupil from Germany threw in what will be a bombshell for many people: American youngsters seem afraid to be themselves—independent, individual. And an American girl blicked this up from another angle: Youngsters Want guidance—guidance to help them stand up against social pressures which say you must do as others do, good or bad.

These two graups of teen-agers, in all probability, wouflat and couldn't have told their parents what they told the congressmen. The committee room must have become a catalyst which crystallized what they had thought only vaguely before or talked over solely among themselves. Nor are these youngsters yet ready to be better parents than their own. But they are "consumers" of parental direction. Business is always telling itself: Ask the consumer.

Well, these "consumers" have told the parents.

MY TRIP ABROAD PART III. (Continued) After two full weeks in Prague and other interesting spots in Czechoslovakia we were now ready to leave for Vienna, Austria. Reluctantly we took leave of new acquaintances and friendly , fellowpassengers that still remained at the hotel.

Having passed through the friendly and cooperative customs at the Prague Airport, we boarded the plane for Vienna.

On arrival in Vienna the difference in general conditions amazed us. Like any large city in the U. S. it is active 'and industrious. More automobiles are found here than in Czechoslovakia and transportation of every description is available; this includes the practical bicycle.

The historical background of Austria is likewise tremendously rich The palace of the late Kaiser, Franz Joseph and the royal famiy is one of the most interesting attractions. While the gardens are kept up very well a large part of the mansion is closed. The splendor of the interior cannot be entered into completely because my attempt is inadequate, but the (urnishings are said to be those left by the royal family, and remain unused. You easily experience a sinking feeling t o view all this splendor realizing that the glory and pomp which once filled the atmosphere is now, apparently, gone forever. But it takes people who lived in Vienna during the reign of the late Franz Joseph to appreciate the history which is handed down to us; when it took only the departure of a member of the royal family from the palace gates to fill the air with music, to view the palace guards on parade or to escort a royal subject to his destination only to be accompanied by the military band with music that to this day has not lost its charm.

Our tours were made with the assistance of a guide who took us through the Vienna Woods via Perchtoldsdorf to the Liechtenstein Castle where in year 1132 nine Hussars defended Napoleon and lost their lives. For years this castle rethained unoccupied, standing only to the memory of these martyrs and heroe0. But, pt present, it is a place of refiige for escaped Hungarians.

Not . too far from this spot is the summer home of Franz Schubert where he composed his :immortal Linden Tree and other • favorite compositions.

Further down the road we entered the gates of the Heiligenkreuz Monastery.

A funeral was being conducted for a

BY NAOMI KOSTOM police officer. It was cold and wet as we stood out while the procession filed through the court yard. This was an unusual scene in that the mourners and brothers officers walked the entire. distance to the burial grounds.

In the car again, the guide drove us to Mayerling, the Hunting Lodge of Crown Prince Rudolph, the heir to the Austrian throne. However, as you know, he met his tragic death on this spot in 1889. Built on the lines of a castle it is now being occupied by sixteen Sisters of the Catholic Carmelite Order. These Sisters seem to do all the manual work and labor necessary in the operations of the estate.

We continued through the forest which is much like sections of our state of Colorado and parts of New Mexico — on to the Springs of Baden. This is an attractive town with nice wide streets and impressive homes — or at least they were before the Russian occupation which ended in 1955. When the city was taken the families were forced to evacuate, and their property and belongings were confiscated or destroyed.

When Austria became free again the Russians had to return to their country, but in their wake, they left only destruction. Not one windowpane or fixture was left undamaged. In the past two years remarkable progress has been made in restoring the Sulphur Springs of Baden.

Most of the following day was devoted to sightseeing through the city of Vienna. It would have taken weeks to have been able to go through the famous buildings such as the library, the museurn, churches and government buildings. Like the Orloj (the astronomical clock) in Prague, Vienna also has a clock of rare workmanship. While the clock on Staro Mestke Namesti in Prague is an attractin because of the parade of the statues of the twelve apostles of the Lord, as they appear over the frame work of the clock on the hour, the clock in Vienna is famous for the inspiring music that is heard while several famous composers make their appearances in the same way as the statues of the Orloj. In both instances, we noticed that a crowd always gathered before the clock struck the hour. These rare masterpieces never cease to be fascinating.

That same evening we attended an excellent performance of Puccini's Manon Lousant at the State Opera House.

This opera house was bombed during

the last war, however, it lass M ilos been restored and completed in November 1955; not to its original ordet and style, however, the beauty of the exterior was not destroyed.

The days went by and this party of four Texans (one slightly inclined toward the state of California) took thoir leave of the Bristol Hotel where the personnel and accommodations were not to be equalled until we reached Lucerne, Switzerland; we rode doWn the, romantic and picturesque Ring Strasse with its charming parks and wide sidewalk.% its shops and sidewalks safes -- in short, the beautiful city of Vienna, the city of dreams, though it cant, never compare with the city it Was before the last war.

Thirty Days Behind The Iron Curtain (CONTINUED) Thirty Days Behind the Iron Curtain June 30. — This morning we got up bringht and early, 5 o'clock. It was a beautiful morning and the sun was promising another hot day. At 6 o'clock we 'were at the railroad station and buying train fare for Straznice. The railstfltion was packed with people all 1:oing to the same place, Straznice Straznice is a Southern Moravian town in the heart of Slovakia, surrounded by green meadows and forests on one , side and the other side, vineyards.

The people of this town, still to-day proudly wear their national dress and sing their songs. It is a tradition that here in this locality a festival of folk songs and dances is held once a year.

In 1946 for the first time, several people met and, decided to have a celebration- in the Straznicky Park, where in :earlier days, singers and dancers would meet and would hold contests, The first program listed in "Straznice" was to find the best dancer, singer and orchestra. This festival lasts three days 'arid nights. More and rriore : would perform at this festival.

The dancers and singers perform in groups. They came from all directions of - CZechoslovakia, also from Hungary, Germany, France and England. All these performed when we were there that day. From 10,000 visitors, the number Ia s risen to 150,000. •• The performances are held in a stadium, beneath large trees on the stage for the background, is a typical Czech home with a tatcher roof. Every group has its own orchestra.

The costumes that the performers wore, were very beautiful and colorful.

Especially like the groups from Uherske Hradiste, Hanna, and Hungary. One has to keep an eye on the dancers at all times because the dances are in a foot-- rhythm and, one must get the meaning of the dances.

Not only are stadiums here in the • park, but also concession stands, castle and art gallery surrounded by centuries old' oak trees. The town is beautifully decorated for this occasion. At the entrance it says "Welcome to Straznice" and from there on to the park everything was decorated with red, white and blue streamers. On light poles, and all around, fir trees were decorated with the streamers. (These trees were all the same size, about 4 feet in height.)

As I mentioned at -first that the sun was promising a hot day, well it did, it didn't have pity for anybody. Everyone there was looking for a shady place

By Mrs. Betty Jurica

of the stones are black and all are huge.

From the cemetery, a little ways is the school where my cousin teaches gymnastics. The school is built in modern architecture. She guided us throughout the building and took us to the gymnasium which is well equipped with gymnastic material. While we were in Kyjov, cousin Vera was in Prague, taking exams for a degree in gymnastics She passed the exams and graduated with honors. Everyone was overjoyed that she received her degree. From the top floor of the school building I took several pictures of Kyjov, they are verypretty. The countryside of Kyjov is very beautiful and also the to?lisite.

From here, cousin Vera went home and sister and I decided to go to see Mrs. Chytil, here we chatted a while and than we went to a studio to get postcard photographs of "Kyjov dancers in Kroj." When we parted with my cousin she was in a hurry to go home to make, "cherry dumplings" for dinner, She told us with regret that morning that she couldn't serve *neat as she wasn't allowed to buy it anymore that week. You see there, one doesn't buy meat just anytime, only when your time comes. Talking about good eating, the cherry dumplings hit the spot. She made yeast cake dough and mixed in fresh cherrie,s, topped with melted butter and ground poppy seed. All of us enjoyed this dinner and it was much better than meat.

After lunch, sister and I packed our suitcases and started out to the railroad station. Mr. Krejdi accompanied us on this trip to Prague. We had to wait for the passenger train as it was delayed and was it hot and dry just like here in Texas. We parted with Vera and this was our final farewell. She is a very nice young lady whom I enjoyed to be with very much.

We left Kyjov at 3:30 in the afternoon for Prague. There was a two hour stop at Brno and at midnight we arrived in Prague. On train Mr. Krejci bought us salami and rohlik sandwich and a cup of beer. It all tasted good on that particular hot day. By the time we arrived in Hlavni Nadrazi in Prague, we all were covered with "smut". The trains use coal and therefore we were plenty dirty. One could shake the "smut" out of the hair and our faces were dirty also.

to rest, including myself. We were so tired, from walking tint about 1 o'clock my cousin, Vera and I decided to rest till 2:30 for at that time the parade began.

While strolling, by accident I met Mr. Valcik. By now everyone was hurrying to find that standing room to watch the parade. Mr. Valcik and I were allowed to stand in a third floor balcony so that we con l: take pictures of the parade. All this time, old man sal, was beating down on all of us and not a cloud in the sky. Following the parade I left Mr. Valcik and hurried to Stadium 1-A to my reserved seat, where my parents, sister, uncle and cousin„ also had reserved seats. With the help of a nice lady in Kyjov, where our tickets were bought several days in advance, we were in the first row and saw the program real well. The program lasted 21/2 hours and by now we were all ready to get back to Kyjov to 'my cousin's house, where we stayed for several days. On our return trip, again the train was crowded and we had to be on the move to get aboard so at least to get the "standing room". This was a very enjoy2ble day. Cousin Vera served us a cold plate supper in a hurry and one by one cleared., up for the night and at an early hour we were ready, to go to bed.

Straznice, a town of song and dances will never be forgotten by the ones that have seen it .M •. and Mrs. Steve Strmiska, also were at Straznice and all of us brought back memories in colored pictures.

July 1 — Monday morning and again we were getting ready to take that last walk through Kyjov. My sister, cousin and I started out . arly that morning.

Down the street, I saw several horses and, colts. My cousin told me that this day was "trades 'day" for horses. I esspecially liked to watch the colts by the side of the mares. We walked on and met my father farther down the street. I took several street scenes, such as wagons loaded with coal, also the horses and colts, "Ma so ya fronta", (people waiting in long lines to buy meat) My cousin took us to the cemetery, here I saw the grave of my grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Tony Holasek and also is y.n::it- ,?randmother. My cousin cares for the graves and beautiful pink petunias were planted on it. The people of Czechoslovakia, take good care From the station we started out with of groves and I also saw where a woman was down on her knees with a the luggage "and what have you" for scrub brush and a pail of wather, scrub- our destination, Hotel Esplanade. The bing the tomstone till it shone. Most hotel is just across from the station one

Wednesday, October 30, 1957 had to go through the park and there it was. When we arrived at the hotel, I asked for a room and I was told that the only bed available would be in a bathroom. I told the desk clerk that my sister and I couldn't sleep in the bathroom and would he please call anther hotel. All of a sudden he asked me if I had an American Passport and when I told him that I did, at once he said "room 74", and there I had the same room, that I had the first night in Prague.

That night we were ready to "hit the hay" and so we did just that.

(To Be Continued) —1 • 4. • ( TEXAS MIGRATION AND FARM FOPULATIQ& TRENDS (R. L. Skrabanek) A. and M. College Migration is one of the basic factors in the growth or decline of the Texas farm population. It represents more than just a movement of persons from one place to another since it breaks the bonds and institutional ties of the individual. It also involvet: the transplanting of wealth, social values, and economic production. In some cases, migration is a means of correcting the lack of balance between population and resources, at the same time causing the age and sex composition of an area to change. It affects the patterns of land use, the agricultural and general economy, the church, the school and other institutions and agencies in both the areas from which migrants are leaving and in the new places of residence.

For the 1940-50 and earlier decades, estimates are available of the change in farm population due to net migration of persons alive at both the beginning and end of the specified decade. The estimates, therefore, do not include the migration of children who were born after the beginning of a decade, nor do they include estimates of migration of persons who were alive at the beginning of the decade, but who died before the end of the period.

These net migration estimates are available for age and sex groups for all areas and also for color groups in the Southern States.

gration is the change in the rural farm population due to the net movement of persons alive at both the beginning and the end of the period of years under consideration. The term, rate of net migration, is the change in the rural farm population due to the net movement of persons expressed as a percentage of the rural farm population alive at both, the beginning and the end of the period under consideration.

Migration, 1950-56 The rate of growth or loss of any population group is determined by its birth and death rates and by the balance of in- and out-migration.

If there had been no migration either to or from Texas farms between April 1, 1950 and April 1, 1L56, the State's farm population would have increased by approximately 110,000 per sons This is the difference between the number of births and deaths that occurred during the 6-year period. The number of births was almost three times the number of deaths.

It is estimated, however, that 617,000 persons migrated from Texas farms during this period. This is more than five times the natural increase of the farm. population. The net migration from farms was somewhat lower, since 276,000 persons moved to farms in the State. There has been little change in the number of migrants to Texas farms from one year to another since 1950.

This left the net out-migration figure for the period at 341,000 persons.

• •( HOW TO JUDGE A WITNESS As a juror you are a judge of the evidence presented at a trial. In order to reache a proper verdict, you have to detide what to believe and what not to believe. One person can't believe two diametrically opposed statements.

But alas, there is no fool-proof way to sift out the true from the false. Lacking a surefire truth detector, our jury system is the best method yet found.

So the jurors must consider the factors affecting the witnesses' credibility ;.° far as the evidence discloses them — age, education, work, or looks and conduct on the witness stand, relationship between the witness and the parties; stakes in thetrial's outcome, bias, if it appears; the strength of the witness' memory; the chances they have had to see, hear, and know what they have testified to; their candor; the reasonIn making comparisons either between ableness of their testimony. areas or its constituent elements, such as age, sex or race, those areas or groups lAritnesse.s• often differ in details due with the highest or lowest numbers of to their different opportunities or powmigrants may or may not necessarily ers of observation, or their memory of have the highest or lowest rates of mi- what they saw, heard, or did.

Strana 2 Consider why a witness may make untrue statements: Is it because of confusion, nervousness, mistakes, poor memory, thoughtlessness, lack of intelligence, or evil intent?

The law assumes that the common sense and experience of 12 men will ae more reliable than that of only one, n finding the truth among the statements offered by witnesses in a trial.

The conclusions or the 12 jurymen will be safer and wiser because of the broad background of education, age, profesand experience brought to bear on disputed matters.
