ItAD PRO OTANI LIDU PillP RAN UJE SE JIZ NA ROK 1960 Americkk fitad pro sditani lidu ve Washingtone ptipravuje se jit nyni na osmna.ctY narodni soupis americke populace. O tom, jake otazky maji bYti soupisu kladeny, rozhodovalo se jit roku 1957, i kdyt s obchazenim doma,cnosti a sbiranim pottebne statistiky table se teprve roku 1960.

Netli aide tomuto zavedeni zvykli, teAil se census y e SpojenYch Statech praye tak male oblibe jako . kdekoli jinde na svete. Puvodnim tidelem sditani bYvalo totit zjistiti, kolik mutil lze odvesti do vojska a jake dame lze na narod uvaliti. JeRe podatkem osmnacteho stoleti naratiely pokusy o sditani lidu v anglickkch koloniich dnetniho New Yorku a New Jersey na ptekatly, jet znemottiovaly sestaveni spravne statistiky.

Lide byli ptilia neeinvetivi, netli aby pravdive odpovidali.

Vastave nove ztizene americke republiky stanovilo se sditani lidu do Hi let a pak katdYch deset let. K prvnimu sditani lidu doalo tak roku 1790. Pki katdem daraim soupisu zahrncvalo se do nej vice a vice informed'. Tak na klad roku 1810 byly v nem ut i industrialni data — co se v katclem state a okrese vyrabi. etvrte , seitani lidu, z roku 1820, po prve rozli govalo mezi rodilSrmi Ameridany a ptistehovalci a v ptipacie lidi rodilYch v cizine udavalo se v nem, jsou-li stale jeSte cizinci nebo naturalisovanSrmi obdany. V soupise z roku 1850

uvadela se prvni statistika o fimrtich a socialnich pomerech.

Dnegni census — jak ye SpojenYch Sta tech, tak i v jinkch zemich sveta — neni pz pouhSim zjiSt'ovanim, kolik lidi ✓ zemi 2,ije, nYbrt souhrnem mnoha jinYch informaci. Tak na ptiklad rozdeleni obyvatelstva na vekove skupiny pomaha vlade odhadnouti, kolik Skoi bude ✓ jistem obdobi potreba. Informace, ziskane ze soupisu o takovYch otazkach, j ako jsou vek, narozeni, umrti, zaniestnanost, obydli a pod., hraji dilietitou roli ye vladnim planovani a v ureovani smernic. Statisticke, disla jsou i pro obchodni, scocialni a hospodatske organisace.

Federalni census stave, se proto katdSrch deset let Upinejtim. Tema v ge, co je mono uvesti v dislicich, stave, se latkou, prozkoumavanou pH Otani lidu.

Fakt je, ae moderni prfitnyslovk stat nemohi by bez takoveho ptesne statistiky vtibec fungovati.

Nekde je ovSem nutno s otazkami ustati, a proto se neztidka stave,, ae mezi navrhovateli rilznYch otazek je silne sou petenstvi. Posledni dobou projevoval se sklon ke zhifSteni informaci o lidech, narozenkch v cizine ,a o jejich detech, skupiny to ditajici ptiblitne 34,000,000 lidi. Spolehlive informace o takoveto yelike skupiny jsou vSak nesporne velmi diiletite pro tisk, rozhlas a organisace ✓ Americe zastoupenYch narodnostnich skupin.

0 podetnosti a rozdeleni zdejSich rodnostnich skupin muaeme si utvotiti nejlepti pledstavu na zaklade odpovedi na tri otazky: misto narozeni; zem kde se narodili rodide ;rodnk, nebo matets10 jazyk. Tato posledni otazka byla pti poslednim sditani lidu roku 1950 vynechkna, ale mela by bYti podle nazoru rano:ha narodnostnich organisaci vracena do censusu ptiStiho. Bez porovnani skeho jazyku a zeme narozeni je nesnad.,, no usouditi o etnickem puvodu lidi narozenSich v zemich, kde tije vice narodnostnich skupin nebo jejich hranice se za tivota tazanYch zmenily.

Otenati, kteti veld v pottebu sehrani ta,koveto statistiky, mai by napsati pokut1 mono nejdi4ve na U. S. Census Burea4 a tadati o zahrnuti otazek o matetskern jazyku, miste narozeni a zemi, v nit se narodili rodide. Musi pH to ptiletitosti poukazati, jakk maji tyto informace neel.

Msgr. J. C. Kunc psal do Washingtonu ohledne ptiStiho censu. 2ada1 censovni Mad, aby census zahrnul tea ficlaje pfivodu a vyznani lidu .Tet jakou tedi rodiee doma mluvi. To aby se lepe poznalo, jak se tento narod utvati.

Toto posledni je velmi dfiletite, nebot' svedectvi vetejnosti je hlavnim einitelem kter rozhodne o torn, buclou-li zminene otazky zahrnuty. Dopisy adresujte "Robert W. Burgess, Director, Bureau of the Census, Washington 25, D.C."

George \Vathia%...3 and the Spirit of the Revolution The time was spring, the middle of April in 1775. The place was the hilly fields around the Massachusetts settlements of Lexington and Concord. Redcoated British troops clashed with a determined group of farmers and townsmen. And the American Revolution had begun. Ralph Waldo Emerson, the great American essayist and poet, described the first, shot of the Lexington and Concord battles as "the shot heard round the world."

Indeed, the American Revolution was to have its effect on many world capitals — and for a long while. Echoes of that first shot still are being heard tod.a. • . One reason, perhaps, is because the not merely a American Revolution. political revolt. It has far-reaching moral and spiritual overtones. The Declaration of Independence — drafted by Thomas -Jefferson — proclaiming "selfevident truths": that all 'men are creof arbitrary imprisonment, religious ated equal, that they have God-given rights to life and to liberty and to the tolerance, population representation, trial by jury, a free press. pursuit of happiness.

Then there was Tadeusz Kosciuszko, Much of the spirit of that time is the Pole who volunteered to stand alongsymbolized by George Washington, side the American revolutionaries and whose 225th birthday we commemorate who later became Washington's adjuon February 22nd.

try to weave it into the fabric of history. So the principles of the American Revolution were deeply felt in Western and Eastern Europe. They were felt and followed, too, in Latin America and, more recently in Asia.

Those principles — of equality, of self determination, of human rights — are not perishable principles. Throughout the world they will endure, as has the symbol of George Washington itself.

Those principles will endure wherever men have newly-found freedom, and whereever men would and should be free. )•

The Right Approac The automatic vending industry — which now dispenses such divers items as aspirin, candy, cigarettes, groceries, nylon stockings, hot meals complete with coffee, and life insurance policies — continues to show a vigorous growth trend. Its retail volume this year will top $2 billion, a three-fold increase within ten years time. Vending machines now account for about 15 per cent of total cigarette sales, 20 per cent of candy bars, and 25 per cent of soft drinks sold.

Even in the lines which automatic vending machines can serve best, they are merely a supplement to, rather than a replacement for, personal selling. And may those who sell life insurance always recognize that fact!

For automation in selling insurance is something like a drowning man catching at a straw. The drowning man might catch at a straw, but never effectively!

One reason for this is, the machine says in effect, "I have a policy for sale." But the good life insurance salesman talks about needs, not policies, and that's the right approach to a man's problem —because it deals with what he wants to accomplish: not with what someone wants to sell. ) 4 • Let's all try to help gain our new objective In 1958 — to write $3,000,000 of new Insurance. —

VIST DT I It — WEST, TEXAS

Middle West Led In Life Ins. Investment Gains The five Nast North Central States showed the largest regional dollar gain in life insurance investments in the most recent analysis released today by the Life Insurance Association of America.

The analysis, covering investments by geographic region at the start of last year for companies representing 86 per cent of total life insurance funds, showed a one year rise in these five states of $834,805,000. This brought total life insurance investments in these states of the companies surveyed to $14,995,773,000, nearly double the investment at the end of World War II. Three Pacific States accounted for the second largest gain, the year's increase of $763,091,000 bringing total investments in the region to $9,312,868,000, about three times the 1945 figure.

In the four West South C'entral States, the year's increase was $620,117,000 and the new aggregate $8,797,723,000, up about 180 per cent from 1945.

In the three Middle Atlantic States, which led the United States regionally in total life insurance ownership, the year's, increase in life insurance investmentes was $383,985,000, bringing the aggregate investment of the life companies to $14,218,915,000 or about 50 per cent over the 1945 figure. The largest percentage gain in life policy fund investment in the year was shown in the eight Mountain States, the $292,601,000 increase in those states representing a rise of 10.2 per cent.

The distribution of investment increase by type varied widely from region to region, largely reflecting the varying demand and the shifts in population. The largest gain in public utility investment was in the Mountain States; largest gain in industrial and miscellaneous securities was in the Pacific States; largest farm mortgage gain was in the West North Central States; city mortgages gained most in the East North Central States.

As for the total investment of these life companies in each region at the start cf last year, city mortgages ranged from 19 per cent in New England to 48 percent in the Pacific States; farm mortgages from 0.2 per cent in New England to 12 per cent in West North Central States; industrial securities form 14 per cent in the Mountain States to 25 per cent in the East North Central States; utility securities from 15 per cent in the South Atlantic States to 26 per cent in the Mountain States.

All companies covered in the analysis

showed 34 per cent of farm mortgage investments to be in the West North Central States, 42 per cent of real estate investments in the Middle Atlantic States, 24 per cent of the investment in railroad securities in the East North Central States, this latter distribution being largely determined by the regional mileage of the carriers involved.

Most of the other portfolios showed a distribution more closely measured by the population dstribution. )• 4 • c

Population Mobility Each year almost 20 per cent' of the American people move from place to place. More than 29 million persons moved in a year, in search of better jobs housing, and climate. That the trend toward urbanization is a major factor is evidenced by the fact that about twothirds of the movers stay in the same county.

In the other third the number has been about evenly split between those staying in the same state and those crossing state boundries. Interstate migration has primarily drained from northern New England, the South and the Great Plains regions toward the Southwest, Great Lakes, and Middle Atlantic areas.

Excluding rural farm areas where the population mobility was extremely low (14.9 per cent) more persons living in small areas were in a different home from a year earlier than persons in larger places. The greatest portion of mobile persons were classed as non-farm rural.

The Chicago Daily News says that "We get high school graduates who don't know democratic capitalism from communist dictatorship." That sad observation was prompted by an astonishing report from a professor of economics at a well-known university which specializes in teacher training. He asked 80 freshmen who are preparing to become teachers to define "capitalism."

Almost all of them, he found, "not only As might be expected, those in the called capitalism a form of government, armed forces and the unemployed were but they also thought it an evil and the most migratory groups. Among em dangerous form of government." ployed civilians the highest proportion One student for instance said, "Capi- of mobility was found in workers in talism is more on the dictator type of business and repair services; agriculgovernment." Another said: "Capital- ture, forestry, and fisheries; and conism is the extreme measures that are struction.

Still another said: "Capitalism is on the ) • 4, order of communism."

It would be hard to find more horrible examples of sheer ignorance combined with semiliteracy. And they came, don't forget, from college students who want to become teachers and guide the minds of this country's most important asset --it's children. Something is indeed wrong with American education — and it's something that can't be cured by multi-milion dollar school plants, 50,000 seat football stadia, and curriculums that stress social adjustment, home economics, and other such furbelows.

"Faith, Love and Peace" is a sentimental article by 0. W. Goodwin. It's a good way to bring an end to our conversation about mortgages, money and peace of mind, which I do, with the hope that your house will always be a home, free and clear, all yours.

An artist who had painted many pictures of great beauty found that he had not yet painted the one great one. In his search along a dusty road, he met an aged priest who asked where he was bound.

"I do not know the artist said. "I want to paint the most beautiful thing in the world. Perhaps you can direct me to it."

"How simple," said the priest. "In any church or creed you will find it. Faith is the most beautiful thing in the world."

The artist traveled on. Later he asked a young bride if she knew what was the most beautiful thing in the world.

"Love," she replied. "Love builds poverty into riches; sweetens tears; makes much of little. Without it there is no beauty."

Still the artist continued his search.

A weary soldier crossed his path, and when the artist asked him the same question, he answered: "Peace is the most beautiful thing in the world. War is the most ugly. Whereever you find peace you are sure to find beauty."

Faith, Love and Peace. "How can I paint them?" sadly thought the artist.

Then he turned homeward, shaking his head.

Be Careful Opening bottle with your teeth may snake you the life of the party but it won't give you the sturdiest teeth in town.

People often damage their teeth using them for such unlikely purposes.

In fact, dental authorities can count at least 36 everyday habits that a great many Americans practice in one degree or another that are injurious to mouth tissue.

For example, the habit of biting pensively on ear lops of glasses can be an important factor in teeth migration — moving out of position, dentists point out.

Chewing on pencil or pen during moments of concentration is almost an occupational hazard for bookkeepers and stenographers. Dentists report considerable erosidn of teeth among people in those professions.

Upholsterers, carpenters, and shoe makers who hold nails between their teeth develop typical dental ailments..

Seamstresses who bite thread and dress makers who hold pins and needles between their teeth invariably suffer from, bad tooth conditions dentists have found.

Biting on matches and tooth picks, abnormal tongue pressures against teeth, lip and cheek biting and continued clenching of teeth to control emotion all may have their adverse effects.

Also listed as detrimental to teeth and gums is the practice among women of using their teeth to open bobby pins.

Another is the habit of cupping chin in hands while reading or watching tele-. vision. It causes side pressure that may harm teeth or jaw.

REPORTS FR LOCAL LODGES WACO, TEXAS Dear Brothers and Sisters: For the past two months we have tried to raise enough funds with which to landscape and beautify our new Rest Home at Taylor, one of the most practical and modern homes of its kind in Texas. Located on a beautiful hill just on the edge of Taylor a modern and clean little city.

The response we have had has been rather dissappointing. It is possible we did not make ourselves clear as to what is needed to make this beautiful home complete. The home is standing on this beautiful hill completed but without a single plant or flower to make it look like a home should, remember a home is not a home until it is planted. We need some $1,800 to build the needed concrete curbs around the parking circle and driveways and to completely landscape the home with proper shrubs, trees and flowers. We have some trees already planted but only a fraction of what is still needed.

We plan to plant only such shrubs, trews and grass that is suitable for the heavy black land upon which this beautiful home stands, plants that are selected for this work are hardy and need very little care once planted. Many of our members have suggested this and that which is fine but not everything will grow on this heavy black land and if everything, is used that is now suggested there will be a hodge-podge with nothing uniform and a home of this kind must be in a uniformly planted setting to lock like it should and an account must be taken now as to what it will look like five, ten or 15 years from now and only a trained landscaper can picture this at planting time.

So brothers and sisters send in your contribution Now and deduct this from your income for 1958 and lets get this job done NOW. Let's make our home look like — We Care, let's be proud of the SPJST Rest Home. Any contribution will be appreciated and will be credited in our Vestnik. Send Your Contribution in TODAY to the address below. We wish to acknoledge the gifts we have received since the last report of the SPJST Rest Home Landscape Fund.

by Headquarters in our Organizational work in the past; on the other' hand, some of our membership are still inclined to lean more towards the old idea of being ultra-conservative and not nesessarily interested as much in making SPJST a bigger institution. The Supreme Lodge Officers and Directors cannot therefore be expected to go overboard suddenly in supporting a faster expansion program towards the growth of our Order.

In the year of 1957, by our writing over Two Million in new insurance and membership has proven to the Supreme Lodge and our membership that an accelerated expansion program has been well received by an overwhelming majority of our members, An outstanding record has been achieved at only a very nominal extra cost. The extra effort and push on the part of all of us definitely "Paid-Off." A meeting was called at our Home Office of District Organizers Saturday, February 8th. Plans and quotas for the Three Million Dollar Goal for this year were very well worked out and agreed on by all District Organizers and Offi-

1,.ers. The Supreme Lodge Officers and Directors agree that we all want the SPJST to grow and as a result they are backing up this Three Million Dollar Quota for 1958 all the way. They are doing everything within reason. When y ou read this message, there will be about 15 of us Organizers attending a full week Course' of Instructions on the art of Selling Fraternal Life Insurance at SMU in Dallas, all at the expense of the Supreme Lodge. Before enrolling myself I had an idea that we would enjoy the Course and have a lot of "fun"' With it. Afterwards, Brother Hejny advised Us different, he said it would not be fun but lots of work instead. We are going to have classes of instruction throughout the day and heavy assignments for night study. A new deal in "Trophies" is coming out this year and many other good things for the Organizers, all from the Supreme Lodge.

With "Everybody Dohromady" we should make it over Three Million; in new insurance and membership easily this year. Thanks are due the Supreme Lodge for their support.

Fraternally yours, CHARLIE CERNY Seventh District Organizer ( ) HALLETSVILLE, TEXAS KAREL HAVLICEK CIS. 4 Our birthday meeting went over in grand style.

The weather was very uncertain and it was misting later with intermitteri showers but members and several visitors came to see their children perform In the program. I am sorry that our Czech correspondent Mrs. Fabian was trot able to be with us due to sickness.

You will hear from her as her husband as present.

Three cheers for Mrs. Grones and Mrs. ilikus for preparing such a nice program. One of the visitors came to me and asked me, can you recognize the eader, when she was singing with her pupils, full of pep as the rest of her pupils.

I told him don't you know the old saying; coming together is beginning; keeping together is progress: thinking and singing together is unity; working together in harmony is success and if you want to succeed you must follow the leader.

The meeting started as advertised and at 2:30 the program started with the song "America" President Ervin Bucek leading. First five members were introduced, one charter member Jno. Sralik and his old standby who was celebrating

Btrana 20 his 80th birthday, F. K. Bucek.

Then songs, dialogues and one-act plays going on. After the pragram lunch was served followed by music, dancing, dominoes was going till late, everybody was happy. Sisters, many, many thanks to each of you for your troubles, bringing so many varities of food and even giving us hot coffee. Who would not come? Mrs. Grones and Mikus you surely made a hit with our visitors and I will say come again, Please do!

Members what do you think about the Taylor Junior Garden Club School planting the first Pecan Tree at our Rest Home in Taylor, and our widely-read Novy DOMOV of Halletsville bringing a picture of that occasion. Thanks Mr. Malec! Members especially secretaries of our SPJST Order, don't you think you should write to the president of the garden club in Taylor thanking them for their thoughtfulness for our patrons residing in our Rest Home. I did and if I get a reply I will send it to our Vestnik The President of that club is Jeanette Dickinson.

F. K. BUCEK Editor's Note: Many thanks for pinch hitting for Sister Fabian and then, — Our very best wishes for your anniversary, may you be with us for a long long time to come and still active as you are now. — Our best regards to you frem all at the Vestnik.

1 • 4, • LODGE NO. 88 HOUSTON WHAT A MEETING Dear Brothers and Sisters: What a meeting! What a turn out!

What enthusiasm! yes, that's the reason Lodge members of Pokrok No. 88 Houston had their biggest monthly meeting in many a year. Approximately 200 members of our great lodge turned out to see Tim Kostom color film and in response to our President Alfred Wisher night called "LET'S GET TOGETHER!" Many of our older members paid us a visit on that night and believe me these were the pioneers of faith, courage and confidence who hoped, planned, worked and did the difficult job of making our Lodge the biggest in the SPJST Order. In reality these older members are the true and solid foundation of what game the SPJST Order the prestige and paramount importance it now holds in our great State of Texas today. Many years ago they set forth solidly, the first phase of Brotherly love and fraternal spirit that prevails today as a guiding light and hope to a better, stronger and aggressive SPJST Order.

Yet, today we are fortunate and should point with pride for the existance of the few that are still giving their unselfish support, time, and encouragement to the younger Czech leaders of many SPJST Lodges, to make us still stronger and maintain the dignity and integrity that is so outstanding of the SPJST Order . . . just a few lines about a particular kindly member who is such a pioneer that was at our meeting. .

This member is passed his 60th year in live and still is a active ,diligent working member of Lodge No. 88. He has a lovely wife who is very active in our Lodge activities and has two proud sons that uphold the integrity of our SPJST Order. He was instrumental in building our present Lodge site, served in many of our Czech plays, devoted many years

Tommy's band is the "greatest" the band was scheduled to play from 7:00 to 10:00, but everyone was having such a fabulous time that the band consented to play thirty minutes longer.

Thank you everyone for coming.

Mary Ellen . Pekar, Entertainment Chairman • )• TEEN AGE CLUB LODGE NO. 84 Dallas, Texas Dear Teenagers and Friends, I would like to report on our Teenage meeting Sunday, February 9. The weather was bad as usual, but we had 12 members, 4 adults and two visitors plus our Director and the President of the mother lodge present. We hope more of you will be able to make it to the next months' meeting which will be March 9 at the Lodge in the conference room. Mark your calendar now so you won't forget. Remember the time is 2 o'clock.

As most of you already know a bunch of the teenagers and Mrs. Petr dressed for the masquerade dance as "The old woman in the shoe," who had so many children she didn't know what to do.

Well, guess what? We received the first prize which was 8 dollars. The teenagers decided to add on 2 more dollars from our treasury and send it to the Old Folks Home toward landscaping the grounds.

Some of ,the projects for this year we decided to attempt learning the Beseda, putting on a play during Lent and finishing decorating and completing the nursery .fit the Lodge so again I ask any one who has a play pen, a baby bed or hi-chair or any other piece of baby furniture please call us and we will appreciate getting it off of your hands. We would like to finish up this task so when you teenagers will be called on to help please try to be available.

We aso decided in the meeting to buy a small 45 rpm record player for our socials and parties and entertainment.

Our dance was real nice, everyone seemed to have a good time and the music was swell, those of you who wern't there missed a ref s=ox1 time.

"It is true your mistress sent you a mess of serpents for your dinner, but I threw them out and have brought you my own dinnee instead. And I've brought the magic wand, too, so it will be easy enough to plant a vineyard that will produce ripe grapes by tomorrow mornmg."

They ate together and after dinner Ludmila took' the wand and struck the earth. At once a vineyard appeared and, as they watched, the vines blossomed and the blooms turned to grapes.

It was harder than before for Raduz to lei Luchnila go, for he wanted to keep an talking to her forever, but she reremembered that Yezibaba was waiting for her and she hurried away.

The next morning when Raduz prese eted the basket of ripe grapes, old Vezibaba could scarcely believe her rves. She sniffed the grapes suspiciously and then very grudgingly acknowledged that he had accomplished his second task.

VESTNIK — WEST, TEXAS Dear Sisters and Brothers: In the last meeting of Sokol Ziska, Sunday, February 9th it was agreed to spend approximately sixty thousand dollars for the new Sokol Hall and lodge Jaro home next to Vickery Park, plus the amount it takes for furniture. The sale of our old building on Carl St. was verified by Br. Emil Hrabina.

The "moving out" time for the two organizations was established about May the 10th. it is a physical impossibility to have our new home ready by, that time, so we are looking for a temporary home for different organization in the city of Dallas.

Our esteemed president, Brother Miro Parma has the job, to go before several civic and fraternal bodies, including Lodge Pokrok 84 Dallas in asking for a temporary home. I do not think we will have any trouble in getting a place to stay for a few months, because everyone knows our Sokol principles: Moral, Physical and Democratic Education.

Our Sokol develops its members into men and women, who are physically sound, morally strong, mentally alert and• live in the principles of real brotherhood, their motto: "Neither Profit nor Glory." When our own Lodge Jaro will be meeting for a few months after May 10th, will be determined in the next important meeting on March 2nd, so you all come.

NUMBER 4'7, SPJST Seaton, Texas Dear Readers: Time really flies because here it is time to report again. These news were passed on to me by my mother. I was absent from the meeting, because I had the measles. I sure hated to miss the meeting, but I just didn't feel well enough to go. The attendance was not very good. We all wish, more members would get into a habit of coming to our lodge meetings.

Sister Elenora Spanhel was reported on the sick list in a local hospital. We wish her a speedy recovery and hope to have her present at the next meeting.

Two new members were admitted into the lodge. They are Cynthia Gayle Matous, into the Juvenile Department and Sister Carol Mucha into the Adult Department. We are happy to have you join our lodge and invite you to come among us often.

Those present voted to have the picnic jointly with the RVOS local lodge No. 5. The date had been set for June 22nd in the January meeting. The RV OS convention begins on that day with regi stration so we are hoping to have the delegates come to our picnic and make some acquaintances among us at Seaton. We enjoy entertaining visitors.

That wi l l be all for this time. I hope to have a fuller report next time as more details about the picnic will be set by then..

With best wishes to all, I am Fraternally yours, Mrs Jerry Pechal, reporter + 4•( SOKOL FT. WORTH Hello, Brothers and Sisters, Our next Sokol meeting is Sunday, February 23 at 3 p. m. I missed last months meeting, as I was in Temple to attend the funeral of my aunt, Lydia, Mrs. Frank Stepan. She was recuperating nicely after surgery, but something went wrong and she passed away on J.-nuary 35th.

Wednesday, February 19, 1958 She is survived by her husband, uncle Frank Stepan, a daughter, Mrs. Daniel Kovar, a grandson Larry Jez, two granddaughters, Patsy and Lana Talasek, six sisters and two brothers. Everyone in Ft Worth sends their deepest sympathy to the grief stricken family as uncle Frank and aunt Lydia were highly reg3rdea and loved at Sokol Hall where they once were the custondians for several years.

All the Merlick family hopes for a fast and complete recovery for Mrs. Dagmar Nevelik, who is very ill. It is very depressing for a person with so much vitality and energy to have to lie in bed and rest and I am sure a card from her many friends and relatives in Ft. Worth, Dallas and Ennis would cheer her up. Her address is 1019 E. Alan, Carrolton, Texas. I am thanking you all in advance.

Well it wouldn't be like me to close this without a word about the weather.

We had our first snowfall yesterday and it sure is a pretty sight, even if it is cold.

Sincerely, Mr§. Fred (Maxine) Merlick • )• Kovar, Texas Dear Brothers and Sisters, Guess I will have to write a few lines so you all wouldn't think that we got drowned.

I guess since it cleared out now every body is busy plowing to get the land ready for planting.

Well, Valentine is round the corner so its time to plant potatoes, at least few for sample that is if the frost won't get the best of it.

Well, not long ago. I got a letter from My cousin from Taylor stating that her daddy is in hospital with broken hip and hand in wrist, that's my uncle John Gobet.

So one Friday, morning ,I made up my mind that we are to go see him.

Eugene and I got ready and stopped for sister Mary Stepan if she wants to go along. I didn't have to say it twice.

In no time we were on our way to Taylor, it don't take long to get there. We found out that he is in John's Hospital, it's just 2 blocks from there house we stayed with him till noon., then we went to their home for dinner. After dinner we had few more places we wanted. to stop from there we drove to see my cousin, Mrs. John Klecka, stayed few minutes. Next stop for few minutes again at Sister Frances Kubicek and her sot Louis and from there last stop was to go see that SPJST Rest Home.

They were planting trees seems to trees, that will me it looked like be just fine for for'those grandpo's and

grandma's when those' fruit trees start to bear fruit to gather it up. Oh, I am just joking. I guess Brother Valcik was in charge of it, he was just going and coming showing where to dig holes. We didn't had much time to talk to him, but he did tell us to tell everybody to erne see that nice building.

So now we went inside the building and we were like lost in that big room where you walk in. Here comes a lady to meet us. and that was Sister Horak.

She took us around and showed us everything, those nice bedaooms, everything is shining and that stainles steel kitchen it is hard to describe it. It is best for all of you to go and see it. At that time Sister Horak said they had 8 persons there and next day one was to coma from California.

Oh, yes what do you all this Sister Valcik was doing, we found her in that nice Laundry room Ironing thanks both Sisters.

Oh gee I thought I write just few lines and I nearly have a history out of it.

Oh yes, you all don't know how happy we were with Sister Mary Stepan, that we beat our officers from our Lodge to go see that SPJST Rest Home. I better end before someone gets after me. So good night.

Taylor, Texas Dear Readers of the Vestnik, Well, another month had: gone by. It seems to me they go by so fast like they would have wings, or maybe it just seems to me that way, because my husband and I will celebrate our 33rd wedding aniversary this month.

We held our regular meeting Sunday afternoon at two p. m. with thirty nine members present. President Rueben Lesikar opened the meeting and the secretary, Brother A. L. Boudny read the minutes, other reports were read by Edwin Kovar, Frank Hejl and Ben Mikolaj.

Brother Valcik again ,visited with us and the date had been set for the dedication of the Rest Home for April 27th, so please keep this date in mind and plan to come. We are planning on an all day celebration with a dance at night. Other details will be announced later, we are also planning to have a "may Fete" en. Sunday may 11th, it always is a gala affair, so keep that date in your mind also and plan to come and visit with us.

This month we had lost two members to death our respect was given them, by standing up for e moment of silent prayer. It was decided to donate $5.00 for the Rest Home fund in honor of

Strum 21 Mr. Ben David and $5.00 was donated for the fund in honor of Mr. Robert Konecik who passed away last month.

After the meeting adjourned the sisters served a good lunch with plenty of hot coffee. The weather was cold and drizzling and today its rainy and very cold. Well, until next month, I remain yours Mrs. Frank Pokorny --) • •t NEWS LETTER. OF OUR LAWMAKERS "The citizens' economy drive of last year has vanished," Bruce Alger of Dallas said. "Sputnik gave defense a blank check and civilian programs, aided by the politician — something for everyone — philosophy, are being expanded.

"Congressional leadership will not respect the President's economizing suggestions. The 'cutbacks elsewhere to provide additional defense funds attitude' is not politically popular."

Rep. Jim Wright of Fort Worth hoped Congress will approve a bill intended to lift the veil of secrecy sometimes imposed by federal agencies against the public and Congress.

He cited a case which he termed a "pure slapstick comedy illustration of confused secrecy." Wright said an Air force telephone recording which gave weather forecasts 'to anyone dialing a publicly listed number closed with .a warning that the information was "classified."

"The public is entitled to know what goes on in the government." Wright asserted. "They pay for it. It belongs to them." ) • 6 • ( She: "You used to hold my hand years ago when we were dating." So her husband reaches over and takes her hand and holds it.

In a few minutes, "You used to kiss me," she purred. He turned over, gave her a slight kiss, and said, "Now I think i'll go to sleep."

"You used to bite my neck," she sighed.

With this he got up. Where are you going?" she asked.

"To get my teeth!" he grumbled. ) • 4• • Let's all try to help gain our new objective in 1958 — to write $3,000,001 of new Insurance.

• If you can not do anything else for your fraternity, please hand your frater* cal paper to your neighbor or friend, ft could be that you can win him over to become our friend and member of out Brotherhood the S.P.J.S.T.
