A short children's program of local Ennis talent was original and well received and the District business was conducted smoothly by Brother President Emil Peter, even though it was the first meeting opened under his gavel.

VESTNiK — WEST, TEXAS

Your editor was honored by his West friends to be sent as delegate of this Precinct to attend the Democratic State Convention held recently in San Antonio, Texas.

One of the most interesting things for me to observe was the election or selection of our District Committee .Members that should represent us at the National Democratic Convention. The sele'ction of our Caucus of our District of McLennan, Bell, Falls, and Milam Counties was later rejected by the Presidium which causes a near bedlam at the close of the State Convention.

It was a regular "Steam Roller" Convention if we ever saw one in our experience.

Reports From Local Lodges , BEAUMONT, TEXAS Dear Brothers and Sisters: In the pursuit of my private business it has become necessary for me to move away from your District No. 7 to Beaumont, Texas. For the best interest and continued success of our SPJST Organizational work it has become necessary to resign as your District Organizer.

You 'Tiny be assured that I regret very much to have to leave your District and give up this position. I loved working with you very much and want to Thank you for having been such splendid SPJST Fraternal Co-Workers. I want to specially thank your District Director Brother Charlie Holasek and our Vice President Brother Hejny for their wonderful help and co-operation in the organizational work.

Last but not least, I am happy to know that the Supreme Lodge has appointed Brother Kleprlik as my successor. He has made an outstanding record as local Organizer. He is full of SPJST Fraternal "Steam." He is a hard worker if ever I saw one. You will find him to be well qualified for this position and most helpful and co-operative.

It. i.s my sincere desire that you Organizers go to work harder than ever during the last' few months of this year. Nothing could make. me more happy than to see District No. Seven make the $300,0.00.quota for 1958 so that I may "Join You"t at a celebration of this achievement in January 1959.

KOVAR, TEXAS Dear Organizers and Members of District No. 1: I Wish again to remind all of you about our contest with district No. IL Remember if we are going to win this contest we have to start working just a little harder. Now is a good time to sell insurance to the farmers, because they are now cashing in on their crops, don't let someone else beat you to it, take off a little more time for this purpose.

Ask your friends and neighbors to help you.. We have done real good the past month, but this month we should do even better. We now have only a little over three and a half months to reach our goal, but these are the months when people buy things, why not insurance, , give it a real try.

Out of over 40 organizers in our dis-

trict only 9 have so far sold in the month of August.

How about you others, especially those that have not made a sale this year?

Why not come in now in order to be a part in our victory, and by the way, please arrange to be present at our District meeting Sunday, September 28th, you will enjoy it and profit by attending Here are those that have been successful in the month of August, Frances Bezecny,Lodge 67, — $1000.00 Adolf Felcman, Lodge 141 — 1000.00 Co. 0.

To Organizers In District Seven, SPJST Dear Sisters and Brothers: As you probably know from Brother Joe B. Hejny, our Vice President, from September 1st, 1958, I have been appointed as District organizer for District seven. I welcome this oportunity be cause I see in it, another good chance of closer cooperation with our lodges and their members as well as better ability to work in a better way for the benefit of our organization.

ESTNi — WEST, EXAS monthly average of $40,000. It is nothing impossible. Our district has 26 organizers that means, if exerybody will write just just $1,500 new insurance in each of the fcur months we have to go, then the situation will be saved and we will have a good reason for a big party. Just let us determine that we will do our part, as is our obligation. Let us not stand idly by and depend upon others, but all do our individual share in securing new members. Let's start right now, today, let's study and discuss all the problems we'll meet and let's share our experience with others. We must not, in the organizational work, overlook the importance of education based on experience. The result of combined experiences and knowledge is what we are striving for. We all belong to different lodges, but we all are striving for the same result. If you all are willing to coop erate, there is no limit to the advantage we may gain by working together.

Meet the challenge of the membership drive and make a record by contacting every eligible person in your territory.

If you are having any difficulty in your work, maybe I can help you. Just write Me for help and advice in any of your problems.

I am looking forward to our teamwork and I wish you all a lot of success.

Fraternally yours, Jaroslav Kleprlik Your New Dist. Organizer Editor:s Note: Our cooperation to the new District Organizer is pledged herewith.

Women's Nook WEST, TEXAS Dear Girls, Last week it was my privilege to get my first dunking into politics on the grander scale than the usual office ,skullduggery, while your editor was delegated from West to attend the Democratic Convention in San Antonio. .

The cloudy day was delightful for driving and we found the Convention without too much trouble.

With a school band loudly playing the "Eyes of Texas" outside of the auditorium, folks were hurrying to and fro with preoccupied looks in quest of something of someone.

We, the four of us, the Hugo Freunds and your editor and I, couldn't get past the burly cops into the auditorium without our badges which had not been mailed us, so "cherchez le femme," Chairman Dr. Armstrong got underway. She had our official passes and we didiVt even know what she looked like if we did see her, so while Mr. Emend `Cherchezed" we three watched the milling crowd.

People are more fun to watch than a movie. Perhaps someone was getting just as big a bang out of us trip-rumpled and pallid females holding up the audittorium wall, but in the• excitement I forgot to switch my lipstick into my bag, so I was sans lipstick.

La Femme Armstreng, rusty haired and with a big bun on the nap of her neck was finally located and we marched in, found our reserved places on the balcony and sat back in the ,air , conditioned auditorium to listen to the organist giving off with some nice music to which one could sing happily for no one could hear you over the din.

I couldn't tell the bigwigs from thd little ones, they all looked alike to me, but I did see a let of what might be respected businessmen who boo-ed, and

Strana. shouted names of persons that brought a lot of mirth to the crowd (probably suggesting some Republican as nominee). There were some women, too, carrying cards on sticks with decrepit looking Jackasses (the Democratic Symbol) plugging some candidate.

Mimeographed leafleats were handed out by various factions calling so and so a thief, robber, etc., which gave hint of excitement to come.

We followed the voting by counties of the Temporary Chairman of the convention, the shouts of delight when some county with a flat vote count gave their votes to Mr. Ikard (nominee) or Mr. Sewell (nominee) and then the caucusses on the floor of the different numbered sections, holding elections as instructed from the platform for the !various committees. There was some discussion about a couple of committeewomen nominees which I did not understand for I knew nothing about their previous political history but everything went on smoothly.

Gov. Price Daniel with his charming "missus" on his arm came in and he made us a speech in which he disowned all the Democrats of Texas, asking them to please change their party name so as not to mix them up with the Democratic Party; more heckling from the gentlemen around us. Mrs. Daniel was introduced as a descendant of Sam Houston, Texas' first Governor.

The fifty cent sandwiches were good, ham on rye as was'the orange drink. We shook hands with a lot of people we never saw before in our lives, "glad to Meet you" and filed out for the noonday break.

The convention would not accept the nominated committeewomen, we're told the old committeewoman stayed on and we're in the dog house I suppose.

Texas is beautiful at this time of the year and we enjoyed immensely as we did the people at the convention.

They came "To do battle in the name of harmony," so said one speaker. Another stressed "Unity to serve our nation." There is nothing dishonorable about disagreements, said another, "the important thing is the method that is used to settle the dsagreements — to accept the mandate of the majority."

"If we are to maintain strength and bring it to great heights, we have a spewhich gave to the National Democratic which gave to the National Democartic Party the dynamic leadership of recent years," concluded another.

As I sat and listened to all of these speeches, it brought to mind how like our own SPJST the striving for unity, harmony and brotherly understanding

VESTNK — WEST, TEXAS our Order has forged ahead, stepping up like on the rungs of a ladder on its mistakes to hold its head proud among the Texas orbit of fraternals.

I'm glad I was able to attend this convention, I have a better perspective of the gigantic machinery of the Democratic Party and the tremendous amount of effort on the part of so many folks to get it going.

To all of you girls, I wish for a pleasant weekend and if you drive, drive carefully and above all — stay beautiful.

Fraternally yours, The Editor's Wife 4 •t TEMPLE, TEXAS Dear Readers and Friends, Our trip to California started by driving from our state of Texas to New Mexico. We saw many formation of rocks such as the Giant Buttes, volcanic lava beds, on the scenic highway No. 66.

Our first exciting drive was at Flagstaff, Ariz., through the Oak Creek Canyon with its winding road of about 12 miles. Traveling along with difference in elevation there is a variation in types of scenery and vegetation. Its red and white walls and pinnacles rise to a height of 45 500 feet in places.

Then we journeyed to the Hoover Darn and then to Las Vegas, Nevada. From Nevada after spending the night there we started for the state of California. I especially would like to tell you about Disneyland. A visit to Disneyland is a new experience in funfilled entertainment for the entire family. It is located near Aneheim, Calif. There are many adventures at Disneyland to interest and fascinate everyone. There are 40 attractions, 15 free shows and exhibits and 50 shops and stores. Disneyland is divided into these sections — Main' St., Tomorrowland, Frontierland,' Adventureland and Fantasy land.

When 'you buy your tickets at the bo. oths outside of Disneyland gates you enter into the 1900-era Main Street. Here you see horse-drawn trollys and surreys ice cream parlor, gaslamps, and old fashioned market house, band concerts and parades, trains leaving for a trip, silent movies featuring many early day stars and so many other things to talk about that it would be impossible to remember everything.

Our next experionce was that we entered into Adventureland. We took the jungle boat ride down a tropical river. We saw flowers and plants that made you feel like you were in an mysterious world for away from civilization.

We also saw lifelike alligators and hippos "attacking our boat" — gee that was really exciting. Then as we went along we saw a tribe of headhunters, giant gorillas, lions, tigers, giraffes and a wonderful land of nature and beauty.

When we got back to the dock there we saw adventureland bazaar -- with many native curios.

VgSTNIY— WEST, TEXAS Then we entered into Frontierland.

Here we rode the Paddle wheel steamboat called the "Mark Twain" on the river. From the boat we could see Tom Sawyer's island, an adventurer's paradise with his fishing dock and tree house. Also an Indian village, wild animals, Castle Rock, Indian canoes, log rafts, and Old Fort Wilderness.

Despite having advertised, I am having a hard time finding a suitable manager for my farm, partly because my crop is rarely grown in the United States. But I do know someone in my old country who is experienced in this kind of work, who could fill the job, and who is willing to come to the United States. Unfortunately his quota is oversubscribed. Is there any Way in which . I can bring him over here?

ANSWER: Yes, you should file a petitition with the Pr+migration and Naturalization Service for a. first preference quota, on the grounds that this man's services are urgently needed in the U.S. To file this petition, apply or write to an office of the Immigration and Naturalization Service, which will tell you what procedure to follow. You Must also obtain a clearance order from the United States Employment Serviee stating that no one with the qualifications you need is available in the United States. :Wanwhile, the roan you wish to employ should register at the United States Consulate abroad for a first preference quota visa. If your petition is approved by the Attorney General, the ailien in,question should have no difficulty in coming here, if he meets other immigration requirements, since the law reserves half of the quota for first preference immi. frants.

SPECIAL LEGAL REMINDERS

Sometimes you see newspaper stories telling how various courts have issued "injunctions" to protect the owner of a patent from infringement, to stop some-; one from putting up a building which would be a hazard to the neighborhood, or to prevent some other type of activity which might harm one or more persons. Occasionally you read where a "writ of mandamus" has been directed against some public official. This column Will briefly explain both of these extraordinary legal remedies.

The injunction got its name because in the old days the English king commanded (enjoined) special action when an ordinary court action could not solve a problem at hand. Today it is an order requiring a person (or corporation) to refrain fronn doing a particular act.

As a rule, one would first get a "Temporary Restraining Order" which would stop someone from doing something harmful — like pollution of a stream or annoying the peace of your home. By granting it the judge preserves the status quo until a hearing has been held to hear both sides of the controversy.

Usually, if you want an injunction, your laWyer will take sworn statements into court to show that'your grievance is one -which' could be taken care of only by an injunction. „ , Often Must ust Put upa bond to make up for any damage you do the other side if the court doesn't see things your way.

After you've made your request, the court arranges to hear the other side.

They must "show cause” why the injunction should not be issued. Because most injunctions deal with immediate problems, the court hears the merits of such a case in a very short time.

After the temporary injunction is issued, a "permanent" injunction may be obtained or either party may start a lawsuit to settle the problems which the temporary injunction has cleared up for the moment.

If the court grants an injunction, it must be served on the defendant to be effective. Then if be disobeys the order, he is disobeying the court and issubject

Wednesday, September 17, 1958 to a fine or a jail term for "contempt of court."

"Mandamus" is a special remedy used to right wrongs or enforce proper action by a public officer.

When we elect public officers to work for us, we place a great deal of authority in their hands. Sometimes they fail to do their lawful duty. One way to make a government official do his job is to ask the court for a writ of mandamus.

Suppose you have applied. for a permit to build a house under a city building code. You submit your plans which meet all the requirements of the code but the proper official won't give you the permit and you can't get one elsewhere.

You can then ask the court for a writ of mandamus and if you were right and the building official has no grounds for refusal, the court will order him to issue the permit.

Before the court will issue such a strong command as this, the officer must have refused to do his clear and legal duty -- not something that he may or may not have to do as. part of his job.

(This column, based on Texas law, is written to inform —not to advise. No person should ever apply or interpret any law without the aid of an attorney who is advised concerning the facts involved, because a slight variance in facts may change the application of the law.)

46 ♦ ( AMERICAN ilISTORX

On September 18, 1793 -- 165 years ago — President George Washington laid the cornerstone of the United States Capitol building. As the result of *a competition, President Washington had selected William Thornton as architect.

His successor, Stephen Ballet, also shares the credit for the basic concept, which was to express the idealism of the new republic. Beginning in 1803, ancither architect, Benjamin Henry Latrobe, modified the somewhat impractical plan.

Inspired by classic Greek principles of design, Latrobe worked on the Capitol until 1817, rebuilding the first structure after it was burned down by the British in the War of 1812. Charles Bulfinch brought it to completion in 1830. During the Civil War, the Capitol served as a barracks. As it stands at present the Capitol is 751 feet long and 350 feet wide and has 431 rooms. Its two marble wings contain the Senate and the House of Representatives. The Rotunda, the Statuary Hall and the old Supreme Court Chamber are located in the central part of the building. Though not in the exact center of Washington, D. C., the Capitol dominates its skyline and is the key to, the city's street address system.

Early Destruction Of Cotton Stalks Advised College Station—Destroy those cotton stalks to prevent pink bollworm winter carryover!

This is the advice of F. M. Fuller and C. F. Garner, extension entemologists, who remind that deadline dates for stalk destruction are fast approaching.

They say in areas of Texas where stalk destruction is recommended, it is one of the most economical and effective methods of controlling the pink bollworm. The use of stalk shredders is highly recommended, since they kill many of the pink bollworms left in the field after harvest. Although it is not legally required, they advise plowing under the- shredded residues to a depth of six inches within five days after cutting.

In Northwest Texas, the entemologists recommend that the stalks be left standing in the field until after a hard freeze because the low temperatures will kill the pink bollworms in exposed bolls.

Stripper harvesting aids in reducing numbers of pink bollworms in areas where it can be used. A large amount of the infested materials is stripped from the stalk and carried to the gin where the pink bollworms are destroyed.

The entomologists encourage farmers to avoid irrigating too late in the season, because insects are attracted in large numbers to late irrigated fields cotton. The sooner harvest is completed and stalks destroyed, the better the chance of preventing a heavy winter carryover of bollweevils and pink bollworms. It is expensive to produce a late fall crop because in most instances, this practice encourages a large buildup of pink bollworms and bollweevils to go through the winter.

For more information on pink bollworm control and regulations, they advise asking local county agents for L-219 "Ways to Fight Pink Bolhvorm in Texas."

*• Circumvention The question of the correct plural of the word "mongose" was solved by a gentleman who wanted a pair of these interesting and affectionate creatures.

He wrote to a dealer: "Sir, please send me two mongeese."

He didn't like the looks of this, so he tore up the paper and began again: "Sir, please send me two mongooses."

This verson did not satisfy his any better than the first so he wrote: "Sir, please send me a mongoose; and, by the way, send me another."

Ve stiedu, dne 17. zaii 1958 DOVE HUNTING HINTS GIVEN The dove season opened Sept. 1 with one of the best crops of doves in years, according to the director of law enforcement of the Game and Fish Commission.

The director gave a few warnings for shooters.

Be sure you have your new 1958-59 hunting license, on sale with wardens, sporting goods stores and county clerks.

Shooting starts at 12 noon and ends at sunset. Be sure to check your time and don't shoot by moonlight, Don't shoot from an automobile. Wardens will get you in a hurry.

If you are inclined to be careless, check your life insurance policy.

Vulnerable A visiting minister, preaching in a town famous for its horse races, vigorously denounced the sport. The principal patron of the church always attended the races, and of this the clergyman was later informed.

"I am afraid I touched on one of your weaknesses," said the pastor, not wishing to offend the wealthy one, "but it was quite unintentional, I assure you."

"Oh, don't mind that," said the sportsman genially. It's a mighty poor sermon that don't hit me somewhere."

High Blood Pressure and Headaches About half of the people who have high blood pressure complain of painful, throbbing headache at one time or another. But study has shown that the headaches may not be related to the height of the blood pressure. Many of these people suffer headaches long before they had hypertension. The pain becomes more intense with hypertension, and the spark that sets it off may be fatigue, worry or frustration. Reserpine is the drug used to relieve hypertension headaches. But to prevent attacks, the patient must, as in other psychogenic cases, recognize the cause of his trouble and develop a calmer attitude toward life.

Strana 30 SEPT 26 IS DEADLINE FOR FILING SOIL BANK REQUESTS Texas farmers have until Sept. 26 to file a request with their county AgriculCommittee for a maximum rate for their farm under the 1959 conservation reserve phase of the Soil Bank program.

Then, after the maximum farm rate is detrmined, farmers have until Oct. 17, 1958, to apply for a conservation reserve contract, assording to I. H. Lloyd, who has charge of the Soil Bank program in the State ASC office. Lloyd and the State ASC Committee, emphasize that under present legislation. there will be no acerage reserve program in 1959, and they urge farmers to become familiar with the conservation reserve. Lloyd said ASC offices are accepting applications from farmers for establishing the maximum conservation reserve rate for their farms. Rates will average $12 per acre in Texas. ) Wrong Number Southern California, so the story goes, is loaded with "believers" cultists, mystics, fanatics, who follow almost any kind of gospel. One such fellow, a timid little man, wandered into a gambling joint and soon found himself risking what maney he had brought with him.

Down to three white chips, he walked over to a roulette layout and put them on No 6. At that moment he heard a hollow voice in his ear say "Not 6 No. 2."

He looked around, saw nobody near him. Stunned, he moved his chips to No. 2 and won. About to take his winnings, he again heard the voice say.

"Don't move them, let them ride."

Again No. 2 won.

This time the little man made no move until the voice said "Play 4". He complied, the wheel spun and No. 2 won again. Whereupon the voice in the little man's ear said, "Aw, shucks!" ) • i4 • The happiest days of your life are school days, provided your child is old enough to attend.
