Nekolik slov o Ceskem pisernnictvi Chce-li loYti elovek gt'asten, musi se na Olt pracovati. V praci nauei se poznavati sve sily a te gi se z nich. V praci je zaruka dostatku chleba a vYdelku.

Vgak tetko vydelava se dnes erne)) a v potu tvate dobyta bYva dries katda skYva, ba east° jegte ptichaziva hlad a nedostatek. A tu pozorujeme a vime v gichni, ze elovek vzdelanejti ph torn spravedlivY a moudrY snaze si chleba vydela, netli nevzdelanec. Pomaha mu vzdelanY rozum a dobre srdce, on je vaten, vyhledavan a dobte odmefrovan.

Ale ne samYm chlebem ziv je elovek.

A tak i po torn tong, aby nejen telo, ale i ducha nasytil, srdce zu glecht11 a tivot krisou a umenim posvetil. A tak se vzdelava a zuglecht'uje i pro umeni, yedu a ctnost samu.

A jako je s elovekem jednotlivYm, tak je i s celYm narodem. Nag eeskY narod vtdy vedl a 1 nyni vede tetke boje.

Prod bojoval? Aby nad nekYm panoval? Aby nekomu zeme uloupil? Svobodu urval?

Ne! Zajiste ne! Branil se a brani jen neptatehlm, kteti usilovali o jeho tivot a svobodu, kteti hledali a dopo,sud hledaJi jeho zkazy.

V tech dobach pak vzdorovali pfeclkoy e nagi neptateldm lope, kdyt se vice vzdelavali k pravde a spravedlnosti. — Vzdelani nage einilo nits sill* neptatele slabe.

A tomuto vzdelani, teto spravedlnosti a lasce ku pravde ueili nits zvla gte znarneniti mutove i teny na geho naroda.

Kdyt narod konal to, k eemu oni radili, byli jsme silni a At'astni.

Jest cela, dlouha tada techto nagich bratti i sester, jimt blaho naroda bylo blahem vlastnim, jeho utrpeni jejich utrpenim. Celt' tivot svilj obetovali a o betuji i dnes lidu svemu, narodu a jeho vzdelani. Oni zanechali nazi moudrost svoji a radost ze tivota napsanu v mnohYch knihach, jet v gecbny dohromady oznaeujerne eeskou literaturou. Ve swych knihach napsali nam, kterak se eegti lkie raduji, stra.daji, ziji, bojuji, mysli citi: proto jsou knihy jejich vernym obrazem duge celeho naroda.

Ale nebylo vtdy knih, do nicht by narod nag zesty a pery nejlep gich svych synfr psal obrazy sve vzdelanosti.

A piece stare easy desno minule maji sve odkazy, maji sva vzacno. tajemstvi.

Neni sire tivYch pametnikt starYch, zaglYch tech dob, ale jsou tu piece vzacne pamatky.

Ani nage nejstargi babieky nepamatuji uz soudd ohnem, nektera ov gem za mlada jegte nit pteslici ptedla, kroj ndrodni nosila, vajieka malovala, jina jen tikadla zna, pisne stare zpiva, pohadky pamatuje a povesti, baje, ktere ne botka babieka za mlada ji za zimnich vederil vypravela.

Tak ptedava se toto dedictvi z pokoleni na pokoleni: pohadky a povesti, iikadla i pisne meal se die kraje a vypravovatela, zanikaji a tvoti se nove, easove die potieby a prosttali.

V eeskYch museich; v museu zemskem a narodopisnem v Praze i v museich po aeskYch mestech nalezneme dosti techto pamatnikir stare deske vzdelanosti. Zde nalezneme jit i ty prve potatky literautry Ceske, kdy2 ona soueasne s literaturami narodil y jinYch vstavala a se rodila, pamatky pisemne i prve knihy tigtene velike ceny a yzaonosti.

Z nich, z techto malYch a prost"Ych datkri vyrostl pokiad na gi eeske literatury. Nebot' eeska kniha je pokladem eeskeho ducha.

Pracoval-li elovek telesne, rad saha po torn po knize, aby se ji potegil, aby vzalai svuj rozum a zuglechtil sve srdce.

Kniha je mu valy ptitelem nejuptimne j -km.Je rtvanpohledrty,kdoi nedovedou si ptatelstvi jejiho yydobYti. Ale tem, kteti ji miluji a , otviraji, zjevi vgechny sve krasy, celou svou uptimnast a :krasnou odvahu. rozhovoii se pravdiye a sebevedome tak, jak nikdo nedovede hovotiti. Piestane bYti kralovstvim zakletYm, pokladnici uzavetenou. OistYm ziatetn nabizi se katdemu u glechtilemu srd ci.

My bechove mama mnoho krasnYch knih a mnoho tech, kteti nam dobre kni by psali. Psali je nejen k radosti, k pottebe, posile, ale i ke cti, nebot' literatura naroda je znamenim jeho vzdelanosti.

The Pilgrim Thanksgiving The custom, of an autumn thanksgiving celebration is probably as old as n-dn's first harvest. In America the cus tom was started more than three centuries ago by a little band of 102 Pilgrims who fled from England in order to be free to worship God as they chose.

After three months of tossing about in Atlantic storms, their little ship, the Mayflower, landed on the snowy coat of New England in the winter of 1620.

The Pilgrims followed their leader ashore and, kneeling on the beach, sang a hymn of gratitude for their safe journey.

The first winter the Pilgrims faced in the New World was a cruel one. By spring, half of their number lay buried in the clearing. To hide their graves, the survivors covered them with seeds brought from England, fearing that hostile tribes of Indians might attack if they knew how few settlers were left.

At night, sometimes, the Pilgrims could hear the distant echoing through the forest.

One spring day as the Pilgrims were cultivating their skimpy rows of peas and barley, an Indian came toward them out of the forest and -- to their surprise — addresed them in English, which he had learned from the early traders.

He brought the settlers some seeds of corn and pumpkin — which they had neverseen before — and showed them how to plant the corn, with fish for fertilizer When the harvest was gathered in November, 1621 -- the Pilgrims decided to hold a Thanksgiving Day of prayer and feasting, and invited Chief Massasoit, the leader of the tribe who had befriended them. But imagine the consternation of those 50 settlers when the Indian chief arrived with 90 guests!

But the problem of food proved to be no problem at all. Chief Massasiot sent his best hunters into the forest to bring five deer for the feast. Then he showed the Pilgrim hunters where to find the wild turkeys and tart red cranberries.

And so the traditional foods for an American Thanksgiving feast came from the Indians — turkey, cranberries, corn and pumpkins.

Of all American holidays, Thanksgiving is probably the one most distinctly American. And just as the Pilgrims did more than 300 years ago, we Americans sit down to a traditional feast. It is an occasion far our families to gather to

enjoy the feast day. Many families invite friends, who would otherwise be alone, to join them. Frequently students and visitors from abroad are guests in our homes.

Since Thanksgiving is a family holiday, it is a day we are likely to write about in our letters to relatives and friends overseas. Our letters are a good occasion to point out again that America is not the "arrogant, materialistic land of broken homes" so often pictured by those who do not know us well. ) • 4 •

What Do You Know About Life Insurance?

There is a new terminology being used n the life insurance business today. \lore and more, insurance men are alking about "living insurance."

What do they mean?

They are referring to the kind of policies designed to provide insurance pro[action in case of death, and at the s.nne time insure comfort for the per,on who lives to an old age.

Perhaps you have been wondering what life insurance can do for you. For the married or single persons, a life insurance policy can provide any or several of these things, depending on the type chosen: 1. Let yoll retire the way you want to live—to travel or own a home.

2. Have a cash reserve built up to borrow against in time of need.

3. Take care of your own burial expenses at the time of death or final medical bills, avoiding a burden to your family or loved ones.

4. Carry on any family responsibilities you have in case you are not alive to do SO.

5. Have money either for your own future education or being able to help your children, nieces or nephews who wouldn't have the chance otherwise.

6. Have a final gift for your church or charity.

To get back to 'living' insurance, with this type of savings you can set up your own budget for now and for the future and work out a plan that will make the two budgets balance.

A tailormade plan can be set up for your individual needs if you take your ideas to a quialfied life insurance agent.

There are a few fundamentals every one should know and understand about insurance. One of the big questions is the difference between participating and non-participating policies.

The non-participating policy is sold by a stock company and the premiums for the insurance are based closely on just what the insurance would cost the company to issue a certain policy at a certain age.

The participating policies are those sold by mutual companies. The original premium may be a little more but after the first year or two a dividend is paid depending on the amount declared by the company. This dividend may be taken in cash , applied against future payments, or left to accumulate with interest. Whether you buy a participating or non-participating policy is strictly a matter of personal preference.

There are several types of insurance

sured to accumulate a specified amount of money at a certain age. also provides that if death occurs before that age is reached, the face amount of the policy is paid to the beneficiary. The premiums for this type of policy are higher, but with the higher premiums, higher cash values are accumulated.

An annuity is not actually a life insurance policy, the difference being it is sold strictly for an investment or source of retirement income. In case of death of the owner, beneficiaries would receive the amount put into the annuity plus interest accumulated, or the cash vtlue, whichever is greater. Sometimes as inuities are purchased by payment of a lump sum. Other times, several payments are made, but the amount of income provided later is the important end.

The retirement income policy is a combination of annuity and life insurance. The plan is to give some protection to the isured but the importance is placed on the amount of income it can provide in the future. The premiums for this plan are higher but the plan is Ideal for persons who need to provide for their retirement.

Besides describing the different types of insurance that can be purchased, a word or two should be said amout riders attached to the policies. For a small additional premium one or more riders can be attached to any policy such as, double indemnity, waiver of premium and disabailty income.

The double indemnity provision means the beneficiary will receive twice the face amount of the policy if the policyholder is killed by sudden death due to external, accidental or violent means.

Waiver of premium means in case the insured is totally or permanently disabled before a certain specified age, the future premiums shall be waived for the duration of the disability. This waiver does not affect the collection of dividends or the accumulation of cash value.

Disibility income provides that the company agrees to pay a prescribed income to a permanently or totally disThe single premium life policy is an- abled insured.

Chances are he will give you 11plans. Study them carefully and know just what you are purchasing.

Do you need permant or temporary insurance?

The temporary plans are usually bought by those wanting just protection for a certain period of time.

This is called term insurance and is strictly protection with no investment or savings included. It has been purchased for a limited time and ceases at the end of the agreed time unless renewed at an increased rate because of a higher age level. The premium rates for term insurance are lower because no cash value is being accumulated, however, it can be a most expensive type of insurance if not purchased wisely with a specific plan in mind.

Most insurance sold is permanent insurance, for savings and protection. This would be the best plan for the young man or woman, because they need to protect those who depend on them but also provide for theim future. The cash vaules accumulated would be the answer to both needs.

The most popular of all the permanent insurance sold is the ordinary life policy, sometimes called whole life, straight life, special or preferred life.

This gives lifetime protection to the insured with premiums payable continuously until death. Straight life insurance has the lowest premium rate of any permanent life insurance policy with these rates remaining constant throughout the life of the policy.

Limited pay policies are another form of ordinary life insurance. Here the payment of premiums is limited to a specific period of years — 10, 20, or 30, — or until the insured reaches a certain age, such as sixty or sixty-five.

Since the premium paying period of the limited payment life is less than the life of the insured, the premium rates are higher than those of the straight life. In the meantime, however, this higher premium provides a higher cash value than the amount provided in the same amount of ordinary ife.

Answer: You and your husband must submit satisfactory assurances to the U.S. Immigration Service that if the orphan is admitted, to the United States you will adopt and care for him properly, and that the pre-adoption requirements of your state have been met. The application form for this purpose, as well as the appropriate regulations, is expected to be issued shortly. This form, together with the required documents, must specify the name of an orphaned child under 14 years of age, and must be filed by you and your husband. A request for an 'unknown" child will not be accepted. You may find it helpful to consult one of the national or local recognized adoption agencies. Under the terms of the new law, nonquota visas for such orphans must be issued on or before June 30, 195-a.

The Christmas Seal Campaign Each year, as the Christmas season approaches, the National Tuberculosis Association carries on its annual Christnias Seal, campaign. And it would be hard indeed to find a cause more worthy of public interest and support.

Great strides have been made in fighting tuberculosis -- due in no small part to the work of the Association, and to the financial success past sales have achieved. But a great deal more remains to be done and must be done. The latest. estimates indicate that 250,000 Americans have active TB, 100,000 of them unknown to health authorities. In addition, there are 1,750 people with inactive TB, and 550,000 of them are still in need of medical supervision or public health follow-up. And an estimated 55,000,000 Americans — a third of the population --- are infected with the eernss that cause TB. Some 2,700,000 of this huge eroup will develop TB in their lifetimes, if the present rate of development of disease from infection continues.

Early diagnosis and immediate treatment are essential in the control of TB. Education of the public and continued research are other d weapons in this war. The Christmas Seal Sale supports the work of the 3,000 voluntary tuberculosis associations in this country and its possessions. Significantly, of the money raised each year in local communities, 94 per cent remains within the state.

The campaign began November 15 and will continue through December. Do your part by buying seeds.

It is also a good idea to stock up on heavy wrapping paper, sturdy corrugated cartons, strong cord and paper adhesive tape for use in securely packing and wrapping your Christmas gifts.

Some people try to get out of jury service. It may be inconvenient or unpleasant. Yet, when you are put on a jury you should think of this as a chance to help m a good one of the promises of our Cmstitution—trial by jury. Say the following to yourself: "My forefathers wrestled my right to serve as a juror from tyrants,

"Under our law no one's life, liberty, or prosperity can be taken without due process of law.

"Trial by jury is our basic right. All who seek their day in court should have a fair hearing. They will get it from me.

"On my oath I will well and truly try each case before me, and a true verdict render under the law given me by the judge and the evidence at the trial without fear, favor, or hope of reward.

"I will listen closely, with open mind to all of the testimony, instructions, and arguments. I will not make up my mind until all the facts are in and the judge has instructed the jury on the law.

"I will search for the truth regardless of wealth or poverty, friendship or enmity, of any party or witness "To someone my decision may mean the difference between freedom or Imprisonment, poverty or wealth.

"Justice, once but a dream, is a reality when I, as a juror, do my full duty. No act of mine shall bring shame to our system of liberty under law." )• •( On November 29, 1847 110 years ago —Marcus Whitman, pioneer doctor and missionary, was killed by Indians at Waiilatpu, in the present state of Washington. Born in Rushville, New York, in 1802, Whitman practiced medicine before going to Oregon in 1834, as a Presbyterian medical missionary to the Indians. On a second trip to the Northwest, with his gife and three other missionaries, he was the first to cross the Rocky Mountains by wagon. They settled at the site of Walla Walla, where they worked peacefully for a dozen years among the Indians. In 1842, Whitman made a hazardous winter trip East, to convince government officials in Washington of the feasibility of crossing the Rockies by Wagon and to encourage many families to settle in Oregon. In 1347, a new group of settlers brought measles to Whitman's Indian mission.

His medicine helped the white children, but a number of Indian children died and he was accused of poisoning them.

The Indians attacked the mission, killing Whitman, his wife, and 12 others.

Waiilatpu, the place of this massacre, is now a national monument. )•4•( Why do so many elderly couples build big houses and then try to cut expenses by installing 1m-watt bulbs and • turning out lights?

To Our Organizers FROM DISTRICT VII — NEED FOR NEW ORGANIZERS Reports from the Supreme Lodge for the first 9 months of this year reveal that our District No. 7 has produced in membership a grand total of new insurance in the amount of $157,000.00.

During this same period our District No. 7 has been very fortunate in getting the appointment of two new good-working Organizers that have produced new insurance in the total amount of $41,500 average is $20,750 per each new Organizer.

With no reflection on our "old faithfuls," had it not been for these two new ' Organizers our District would have accomplished very little toward the 1957 goal of -Dougling Our Sales."

In the middle of February this year, at the time of my apoointment as your District Organizer, a list of 25 existing Organizers was handed to me. Deducting from the grand total of $157,000.00, the $41,50-0.00 produced by the two new Organizers, the answer is that our "old faithfuls," being 25 of them, have proiduced a total of $115,500.00 in new insurance and membership; average is $4,620.00' for each existing Organizer. Figures do not lie. The fact is, the two new Organizers averaged $20,750.00 each and the old reliables averaged only $4,620.00 each.

I say again, this is not intended as a reflection on our older Organizers; I personally an included in this list with my own personal sales. Thanks to us "Old Faithfuls" for staying in the harne ss.

In ibis message and report, I am making a personal appeal to every Lodge Officer and ivlember of District No 7 to "Look Around" and help me find some more of this "new timber" and new blood to sell SPJST Insurance in our District No 7. The field is wide open, in San Antonio, ane insurance company alone has over 50 full time gent-i.

It is a Fraternal, Benevolent and Trumanitarion Career for which you actualxly well compensated. The selling of Fraternal Life Insurance is a highly dignified. profession. I want to hear from any member of good charadter interested in becoming an SPJST Life Insurance Counselor of Distinction. I have to help the new Organizers. Please put me to Work!

Writing in a recent issue of the New "ark Times, Ornstein declares: It is Leaning increasingly evident that our aniorance of other languages is causing us expense, embarrassment and loss of prestige the world over.

"Without minimizing other factors, much of this loss of prestige has resulted from our inabailty to cfmmuniGate on a person-to -person oasis with foreign peoples.

The new Secretary of Defense, Neil H. McElroy, said at his first press conference that it may be necessary to speed the missile progpm. The satellite, he added, proves tItit Soviet science has made great progress with mis iles.

That brings up a really big threepronged question — are we lagging behind in the missile race; if so, why, and what can be done about it? Numerous experts think we may be lagging, and one reason is frequently given. The Portland Oregonian puts4. it in these words: "The U.S. missile program is lagging chiefly because of jealousies and bickering among the three armed services competing in this field, and because the U.S. Defense Department has failed to force them to work together amicably." There is small doubt that the Army, the Navy, and the Air Force, have all tried to take the center of the spotlight —and to obtain the lion's share of the vast funds involved in missile research, testing and development. The result, say many observers, has been a waste of money, materials, manpower and what may be the most precious commodity of all — time.

The Oregonian proposes a simple solution — "that we get all our brains in the same laboratory, and quit worrying about the color of the uniforms." If the Soviet satellite helps to bring that about our cold war enemies will obviously have done us a big favor. ) • 4. • "Publicly supported schools lose more students than the private colleges.

He summed up his impressions in three • conclusive sentences as follows: "I have boiled down the importance of education to just two things—character and good manners. A man or woman Who can develop good character with good manners is educated because everything else will come. Without those two I things there is no use of having schoolhouses and teachers because you cannot do anything with people who have not developed these two important things."

Generally speaking, the college student in the several decades since Dr. Butler enlivened the scenes at MorningSide Heights have not taken this bit of advice seriously.

The Golden Spinning Wheel (Czech Fairy Tale) There was once a poor woman who had twin daughters. The girls were exactly alike in face and feature but utterly different in disposition. Dobrunka was kind, industrious, obedient, and everything a good girl ought to be. Zloboha, her sister, was spiteful, disobedient, lazy, and proud. In fact, she had just about as many faults as a person could have. Yet strange to say the mother loved Zloboha much better and made everything easy for her.

They lived in a cottage a , few miles from town. The cottage stood by itself in a little clearing in the woods. Hardly any one every passed it except occasionally some man who had lost his way in the woods.

The mother put her favorite, Zloboha, put to service so that she might learn city ways, but she kept Dobrunka at home to do the housework and take care of the garden. Dobrunka always began the day by feeding the goats, then she prepared the breakfast, swept the kitchen, and when everything else was done she sat down at her spinning wheel and spun.

She seldom benefited from the yarn she spun so carefully, for her mother always sold it in town and spent the money on clothes for Zloboha. Yet Dobrunka loved her mother although she never had a kind word or a kind look from her the whole day long. She always obeyed her mother instantly and without a frown and no one ever heard her complain about all the work she had to do.

Wednesday, November 27 0 1957 One day when her Mother was going to town Dobrunka. went part of the way with her, carrying her yarn wrapped up in a kerchief.

"Now see that you're not lazy while I'm away," her mother said, crossly.

"You know, mother, you never have to nag at me. Today when I finish the housework, spin so industriously that you'll be more than satisfied when you get home."

She handed her yarn to her mother and went back to the cottage. Then when she had put the kitchen in order, she sat down to her wheel and began to spin. Dobrunka had a pretty voice, as pretty as any of the song birds in the forest, and always when she was alone she sang. So today as she sat spinning she sang all the songs she knew, one after the other.

Suddenly she heard outside the trample of a horse.

"Some one is coming", the thought to herself, "someone who has lost his way in the woods. I'll go see."

She got up from her wheel and peeped out through the small window. A young man was just dismounting from a spirited horse.

"Oh, thought Dobrunka, to herself, "what a handsome young lord he is!

How well his, leather coat fits him! How well his cap with its white feather looks on his •black •hair! Ah, he is tying his horse and is coming in. I must slip back to my spinning."

The next moment the young man opened the door and stepped into the kitchen. All this happened a long time ago, you see, when there were no locks or bars on the doors, and there didn't have to be because nothing was ever stolen.

as he rose to go. "I'll come again tomorrow if you'll let me."

"Come if you want to," Dobrunka said modestly.

He took her hand, held it a moment, then leaped upon his horse and galloped off.

Dobrunka sat down again to her wheel and tried to work, but her mind wandered. The image of the young man kept rising before her eyes and I have to confess that, for an expert spinner, she broke her thread pretty often.

Her mother came home in the evening full of praises of Zloba, who, she said, was growing prettier day by day.

Everybody in town admired her and she was fast learning city ways and city manners. It was Zloboha, this and Zloboha that for hours.

Finally the old woman remarked: "They say there was a great hunting party out today. Did you hear anything of it?

"Oh, yes," Dobrunka said. "I forgot to tell you that a young huntsman stopped here to ask for a drink. He was handsomely dressed in leather. You know once when I was in town with you we saw a whole company of men in leather coats with white feathers in their caps. No doubt this young man belonged to the hunting party. When he had his drink he jumped on his horse and rode off."

Dobrunka forgot to mention that he had taken her hand in parting and promised to come back next day.

When Dobrunka as preparing the bed for the night, the big of money fell out.

In great surprise she picked it up and handed it to her mother.

The old woman looked at her sharply.

"Dobrunka, who gave you all this "Good day to you, my girl," the young money?" man said to Dobrunka.

"Good day, sir," Dobrunka, answered.

"Nobody gave it to me, mother. Per"What is it, sir, you want?" haps the huntsman slipped it into the "Will you please get me a little wa- bed. I don't know where else it could ter. I'm very thirsty." have come from."

lord, it seemed to her, in her dream. He lived in a great palace and she, Dobrunka, was his wife. She thought that they were giving a fine banquet to which all the nobles in the land had been invited. She and her husband arose * from the table and went together into another room. He was about to' put his arms about her and embrace het when suddenly a black cat sprang between them, and buried his claws ii' Dobrunka's breast.

"What a strange dream," she thought of herself. "I wonder what it means. It began so beautifully but the, cruel eat spoiled all. I fear it bodes something ill."

On other mornings it didn't take Dobrunka long to dress but this MOrilillgshe was very slow. She shook out het'• fresh skirt again and again. She had the greatest trouble in putting on her bodice just right. She spent much tithe on her hair, into which she plaited the red ribbon that she usually kept' fol holidays. When at last she dressed . and ready to go about her household duties she looked very fresh and sweet.

As midday came, she found it hard to sit still at her wheel, but kept jurnpintn up on any pretext whatever to run out-a.'• doors a moment to see if the yhtmg1 horesman was in sight.

The young man came over to her and took her hand.

"Very well, sir."

"Did you dream?"

"Yes, I had a very strange dream."

SOKOL FORT WORTH Dear Brothers and. Sisters: For those of you that didn't get to attend the Harvest Dance at the Forth Worth Sokol last week, we think you really missed a good time.

Music provided by the Faraizl Orches tra kept everyone in a danceable mood and was very good.

The decorating was the best we have seen in recent yeare with all the fruit hung just high enou e ll for some sharpeyed policeman to catch -a would-be thief when he jumped. The jailhouse presided over by Raymond Hubenak, was a masterpiece in art work too. The decorating chores. inciden t ally, were handled by Mr. and Airs. Ei , nkie Prochaska, Mr. and Mr-. Jack Hattendorf, Joyce Hubenak, Gordon Cole and some others whose names we are sorry we did not catch. It WE e real clever job, though and we thank .them..

Thirty Days Behind The Iron Curtain (Continued) .Tuly 7. — This day was a beautiful Sunday morning and everyone was up bright and early. Breakfast was always served at 6:00 o'clock at the hotel Esplanade. You may think that 6 o'clock was early, but there it was late because the sun rose there at 4:30 in the morning, by now the sun was way up there in the sky. The day light hours are from 4:30 a. in to 9:00 p. in but that's not all, at 2:30 a. in. it was bright as day and that is why we were always confused.

We had our breakfast, and our plans for the day were discussed, that is my family. Many went to a church of their choice, while others just stayed at the hotel talking and visiting with each other, by that I mean, our Texas fi lends.

My parents, got a taxi and went to dads sister's house, just out of Prague at Niodrany u Prahy. My sister and I decided that we would ride a trolley and the bus. About 9:30 a .m. we started out of the hotel and on the Va,clarvske Namesti, here we were to get on trolly No 21. We walked up and down the Namesti, but we never could see our trolley.

Finally we asked a cop where we can find the trolley stop and we found out that it was just across the street from us, but we were a little too late, because our car just went past us. It wasn't long before we got on one and again it was a run and try to get on first or there was only standing room only. The trolley was parked with people, all going out on a sunda.y outing by the River Vltava. Most of them carried quilts, bathing suits, unbrellas, ltinch baskets, and for the children, life savers. Every time the trolley would make a stop, there were few getting off, and twice as many getting on We rode on the trolley to Branik and than eaught a bus to Komorany, from the last stop Its just a few minutes walk to my uncles house.

My aunt and s cousin were busy preparing dinner, while the youngsters were- in the garden playing. I decided that I would also go and see the garden. Mr. 7,denek Kuehn was in the garden also, watching the youngsters while they were playing. Zdenek was very proud of the garden, and no wonder there was everything growing there. The cherry tree was full of red ripe cherries, , currants were red, english peas, onion, tsrawbOries, carrots, tomatoes, lettuce, and many other vegetables were growing there. Also there is a beautiful flowed garden with flow-

By Mrs. Betty Jurica ers of all descriptions.

The flower that I liked the most, was the peony. They are very pretty, with their large blossoms. Than there were viol6ts, carnations, pinks, and many others. Everyone loves flowers and - noticed in Czechoslovakia that many carried bouquets of flowers, pot plants to their homes. There are no large, front yards, and many have none therefore the flowers are grown in pots, and placed in the windows. I also noticed that the geranium is a very popular flower there. Everywhere on the tour, these were planted in large numbers.

We were all served a delicious dinner consisting of vegetable soup, rolled roast, potatoes and kraut. Another custom they practice is, that at meal time, they do not serve drinks, until the meal is finished. My uncle left the table and it wasn't long that he returned with a pitcher of beer. This hit the spot.

He just went across the street and bought the beer in a "hostinec". Than here comes my aunt with a large punch bowl full of tasty punch. The bowl was made of beautiful cut glass, 'which Czechoslovakia is noted for. I asked her what made it so good and she replied berries in it and canned pineapple. Pineapple is very expensive there and a rare item. Pineapple is shipped from China, therefore it is an expensive food and if I'm not mistaken it is priced at two dollars per 303 can.

After lunch we were busy packing our suitcase as our time was nearing for our leave. This was a big enough job by itself, as everyone by now had many things bought to take home. After I finished with packing, I took my camera and took several pictures from the balcony of the surrounding view.

Than I told the children of my two cousins (Vera and Ruzena) that I will take pictures, they liked this very much and had lots of fun posing for me. I took pictures of the cherry tree, beneath it on the bench, the children were seated.

Than another beneath a apple tree. I am very proud of my colored slides as it happened they are all good. Zdenek, Jr. is the- image of my brother, late Anton Holasek. He followed me everytime I made a move and always a smile on his face. He reminded me of my own brother so 'much that at times it seemed to real to be true. These youngsters just couldn't understand that we had to leave Prague in few days. The children have a very good training in man-

ners and sportsmanship.

About 4:30 p. in. my cousin called for two taxis. With all our luggage, coats and what have you, one taxi wasnt enough. So here we left my aunt and uncle's place and went back to the Hotel Esplanade. The taxi fare was fiftyeight crowns. This was about two dollars and fifty cents for one taxifare.

We got to our rooms and got dressed to go out that night to go to the Opera.

Cousin RuZena had tickets bought for the "Bartered Bride," before we arrived in Prague.

Sister and I decided that we could walk to the Narodni Divadlo, it was a twenty minute walk, but than changed our mind and rode the trolley. When we got there, rest of the folks were already there, there were seven of us in all. Narodni Divadlo is a large structure which was built many years ago. I was told that the Czech people didn't have a place for entertainment, so out of donations, an opera house was built, only a short time later, it burned down. The Czechs would not give up ,so again with donations another opera house was built.

The Bartered Bride" was composed by "Bedrich Smetana' an opera of three acts and a Comedy. This opera is translated in many languages and loved by all. Nearly everybody knows the story of this opera. Marenka, was bartered by her father to Tobias son, named Vasek.

As the story goes, Marenka doesn't like stuttering Vasek, but Janik, a son by Dobias's first marriage. The opera was well acted. The stage was set in a beautiful setting. Marenka was acted by Libuse Domanaska and Jenik by Antonin Zlesak. The dance of- the comedians was a dance well performed and the ballet troupe was excellently danced. All of the costumes were just too pretty and are hard to describe. The costumes were created by Kvetoslava Bubenik and Jana Kropacka. This was an evening- well spent and enjoyed by all. At the opera I saw some of the Texans from 1 our group and they were Mr. and Mrs. P,odlipny of Rosenberg, Mrs. Horak of Dallas, and Mr. Cuba from Seymour, than a couple from Los Angeles„ California( After the opera, sister and I walked, back to the hotel, as the street ears were crowded, it was better to walk. We enjoyed this walk for along the way we window shopped and had lots of fun. On our return to the hotel, we had a cold plate and than retired to-. room. This has been a very busy day,. for us and once more we were ready.. to "hit the hay." (To Be Continued.)

HUSBAND, WIFE JOINT DEATHS If the proportion of automobile ac eidents involving the death of both husband and wife holds throughout the year at the sair'e level reported for the Labor Day week-end, many hundreds of husbands and wives will be involved in such "common dis), sters" in the next 12 months, the Institute of Life Insurance declared today.

In large part the result of the rising milage, speed and joint family use of automobiles, this increasing toll of common disasteis has created a life insurance problem which every policyholder should give consideration to, if he is to be assured the benefits from his policy will do exactly what he wishes, the Institute warns.

To meet this situation, life insurance companies and agents now write what is termed a "common disaster" clause to add to policies where needed. It is actually written into some policies as an integral part of the contract In most cases, however, it has to be added as a rider.

"Death of both husband and wife in or resulting from. the same accident usually involves the proceeds of life insurance and may result in their being handled differently than the policyholder originally planned," the Institute said.

"The wife is the beneficiary of the husband's taller, and vice versa, in most cases. Therefore, unless specific provisi on made for payment of the proceeds in I he (..\ ant of such a common disaster, the pt.yment will go as directed in the policy, this depending on the interpretation of which of the two died first."

When taxes are involved, this may make a consider „hie difference, it is pointed out. The 1 ix will differ if the proceeds are regarded as a part of the musband's estate, rather than as a part of the wife's estate. This, incidentally, applie,s to an even broader list of cases than just husband-wife, as it affects every case of policyholder-beneficiary point death. Included in this category would be many brother-sister, childrenparent and business partner joint deaths.

Policyholders are in a somewhat better position today in this connection than they were up to 16 years ago, according to ife insurance lawyers. The decision as to which dies first formerly had to be settled by litiation in most cases, but in 1951, through the efforts of the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws, a uniform statute was proposed to the various states, providing for the distribution of

property in the case of simultaneous death. In the case of life insurance, it was provided that, unless otherwise stated in the policy, it would be presumed that the insured had survived the beneficiary.

Now, all but two states, Georgia and New Mexico, have adopted this Uniform c t or similar provisions.

This aw only parth, meets the situation for the policyholder, however, according for insurance planners, as the policies must still include specific provision for payment of the proceeds if the beneficiary is no longer living. Also, provision •must be made where the death of one cle rly follows the other by minutes, hours or days, when the timing definitely known.

There are five steps suggested by life insurance planners for policyholders to take in protecting a '>_inst this relatively new common disaster hazard: (1) Include a definite provision in the policy to meet simultaneous or delayed death the same accident; (2) naarte a contingent beneficiary in every policy and even an nil 'mate plan beyond the secondary ben ficiary; (3) allow adequate time 111 the common disaster provision in case of delayed death, so that the problem will not merely be postponed; (4) include parallel provisions in the wills of both parties; (5) periodically recheck the plan, to make certain, it is currently most effective.
