Would You? If you were to ride on an airplane today, would you buy trip insurance?

Most people do. As evidence, look at the lines in front of your airport's insurance booth.

Why do they buy? Perhaps they feel that flying is some special type of risk but they also must feel that they are under-insured. The sudden picture of something happening to them brings into focus all the things their family would need.

They see their widow without an income. All men leave unpaid bills — funeral expenses, estate taxes, etc., when they die. Then, too, there is the need for a continuing income to pay for the necessities of life. Social Security, alone, will provide only a subsistence income, far below what they have been accustomed to living on.

They see their family without a good home. When the family is left without enough money to pay off the mortgage, it is forced to sell its home and move into a poorer neighborhood. Add to this the fact that your widow would have to work to support the family, and you can readily see the effect on a child.

They see their children without an education. A young boy or girl in a family where there is just barely enough money to get along on would have little chance of going to college, or even finishing high school. He or she would have to go to work, and you know what kind of a job a youngster with that little education is likely to get.

They picture, suddenly, all the things their family would be without: and they want to do something about it right then!

Now take a look at your own situation.

Your chances of being killed in a commercial airplane crash are very slim.

Actually you are safer in the air than in your own home or automobile; and what about the possibility of dying as a resuit of illness? In any of these events, your need for Life Insurance is just as great!

"I pledge Allegiance to my Flag and to the Country for which it stands; One Nation under God, indivisible with liberty and Justice for All." At this very moment, would your life insurance provide enough money to: Pay your final bills? — Statistics show that the last expenses of the average man run about $2,500 will your widow have at least this amount of money on hand in a special clean-up fund when you die?

Pay off your mortgage? — Even if your wife works, she probably would not be able to keep up the mortgage payments on your home. Do you have a way to guarantee that the mortgage will be paid when you die?

Pay a regular monthly income? — If you should die while the children are small, the maximum monthly benefit your widow would get from Social Security would be $200 until the youngest child reaches age 18. Will this be enough money?

Pay for the children's Education?— Right now, it costs at least $8,000 to pat a child through four years of college, and there is every indication- that it will take more money when your children are ready to go. Will this money be available, if you should die?

The best thing about a Permanent plan of life insurance is that, since you probably won't die, every penny you set aside right now can come back to you in a form of an income when you retire.

An adequate retirement income can make the difference between just having enough to live on and being able to enjoy the things you have always wanted to do — be it travel, gardening, sports or just time to relax comfortably.

See your SPJST Organizer today. Let's Talk Insurance!

There is no time like the present to start a procedure that will aid you with next year's income tax calculations. That is to maintain a record of your income and outgo. Such a record can be simple and brief but it may save you tax dollars and many hours of work in filling out tax f orms.

The average man who works for a wage or salary doesn't have to concern himself about keeping books and records — at least so he things. His employer keeps a reliable record of his earnings and Uncle Sam looks primarily to the employer for information on his earnings ad for the withholding of various taxes out of his wages.

But whether or not you run a business of your own, you have a partner who each year is claiming a substantial interest in your personal income. And the law requires that you keep books for him in case he ever asks for an accounting.

Perhaps you own your home or are paying it out in installments and it is likely that some day you may sell that house. When you do you'll want to be able to prove whether you realize a gain or a loss on the sale. If a gain in capital results, it probably will add to your income tax. If a loss was suffered, it probably will reduce your income tax.

You may have made certain capital improvements on the house while you lived in it, but unless you can show what out-of-the-pocket expense you incurred while making them, you may not get credit for them in your cost basis so as to prove that you had no capital gain or that you had a loss.

Or perhaps you received that little summer cottage of the lake as a gift from your father. If you ever sell it, you should be able to show Uncle Sam not only the cost of improvements you made on it while you owned it, but also what its fair market value was at the time gave it to you.

billion and a total of $13.8 billion of insurance in force.

These few paragraphs tell only a little about the part which Texas plays in the life insurance picture in the U.S. Today life insurance is a basic element in the financial security of the American family. It has helped keep families together in times of need; it has provided increasing sums in living benefits; and it has brought peace of mind to those who own it. Also important to American families is the story of dollars put to work by life companies to build homes and schools, enlarge farms and factories, finance highways, bridges, water and power systems and many other industries. Life insurance is the plan of today that makes a brighter, happier and more secure future for all of us tomorrow.

About Speeches In organizational activities there is allways a 'demand for a brief formal such as an address of welcome, response and acceptance of speeches and the like, normally and address of welcome and a response of welcome should not take more than five minutes and two to three minutes is to be preferred. Welcoming officials should feel no obligation to do anything more than to extend the welcome and comment briefly on why this meeting has been called and why he is proud to act as host to visitors.

This can be done very neatly in three to five minutes and the response should be in the same vein.

In many organizations it is more or less taken for granted that the president makes an elaborate address. In some other organizations it is the practice merely to acknowledge the honor briefly and pledge one's best efforts.

What ever the tradition, there is no good reason why a speech should last more than fifteen to twenty minutes and I am sure no one will be disappointed if it lasts only five to ten minutes.

Well, that's all for speeches, of specific situations.

While the situation is less pressing, the speaker will have to use his own good judgement. He must consider a number of factors. First, how many other speakers are there on the same Program? Has there been an earlier session during the same day? If there has already been a good deal of speech making, the audience probably suffers from some degree of mental fatigue and should not be burdened with any more lengthy speeches.

s

Next, the speaker's importance on the program. If he is the featured speaker he is justified in taking more time than he would take if he were sharing top billing with other speakers. At any rate he should ask the Chairman specifically 'how much time there is allowed to him and he should never go beyond that time limit.

If he is not a featured speaker, he should, out of courtesy to that speaker, make his remarks relatively brief. Another thing, is that the speaker should try to anticipate the physical circumstances under which he is expected to speak. Will he be talking in a stuffy room or in an air conditioned auditorium? Will it be outdoors or indoors?

Will his audience be standing or are they be comfortably seated? Are they listening there because they are obligated to be there or have them come of their own choice. Each of these factors

WEST, TEXAS

has an important bearing on the question of how long to talk.

For exa,riple: some ministers who limit themselves to 15 minute sermons on a hot summer Sunday morning may be perfectly justified in taking threequarters of an hour the same evening when it is cooler. At this point and just for your enlightment, I would like to state that it is very assuming if some of our ministers talk, and talk for over 45 minutes and lose all the impression that his sermon should have brought about. It is always better to be too brief than too be too windy.

There is never any compulsion for a speaker to use all of his alloted time. He will make better speeches and make more friends, I assure you, by keeping within tolerable time limits.

The Real Tolstoy (By Eduard Micek)

The outstanding characteristic of "The Real Tolstoy" is the fact that these impressions and evaluations are a firsthand narrative of a person who had the privilege of meeting and knowing Lev Nililajevich Tolstoy. While the greatness of Tolstoy has been widely acclaimed, the knowledge that this author had an acquaintance with him bfings the, descriptions into reality. The reader can understand more clearly the personality of Tolstoy and his philosophy of life.

L. N. Tolstoy, considered one of the world's greatest novelists, was constantly struggling to find the meaning of life and religion. He was greatly influenced

by J. J. Rousseau, whose name is often mentioned in his writings. Although he attended Kazan University for a while, Tolstoy's conflicts with formal education increased until he lefts the University without completing his course of study. However, he passed the examination for the practice of law.

In writing "War and Peace," acclaimed by Hugh Walpole as the greatest novel of all literature, Tolstoy, through historical events, presented his own basic personality conflicts on the meaning of life and the place of religion in life.

From his own observations in the Crimean War he gives some of the most realistic descriptions of the thoughts and actions of men in war ever written.

In this historic novel Tolstoy continually stresses the importance of "inner" events, the most immediate actions experienced by people, over "political" or public events as are most often characteristic of historical literature.

Thanks to the well prepared meeting and the efforts of our sisters of the local Lodge No. 38, our District I Meeting was a well deserved success.

All of the members of Lodge Kovar and friends from -near and far and the well arranged Youth program, made this an outstanding success of this district. All the speeches were short and well chosen and this is to thank all the participants for their efforts to make this a really successful and useful meeting.

It has been a pleasure to meet so many of our new friends in person and to again greet our old acquaintances and we will report on this friendly gathering of our brothers and sisters in our next issue of the Vestnik in more detail.

and stage scenery, accomplished expertly the aim of presenting characters vividly in their natural backgrounds.

When Tolstoy entered his "third period in life," he quite unintentionally became the central force in a new religious concept. "Tolstoyism" was, based o the conclusion from Christ's teaching "that ye resist not evil." Tolstoy interpreted this to include all forms of violence and systems and means of compulsion. For this reason he violently rejected all greed and lust by society and gained a deep respect for the peasants and their simple, rustic way of life. He emphatically claimed that in order to change the world, there would have to first be a change in men.

In order to more clearly illustrate the beliefs of Tolstoy, the author gives a narration of his association with prominent figures of the day. These portraits of men unintroduced and unfamiliar to the reader serve the primary purpose of describing through comparison Tolstoy's philosophy.

I. S. Turgenev, a literary figure of that era, accepted Tolstoy as his pupil or apprentice. A deep bond of assaciation developed between the two. In due time, however, the pupil outgrew the teacher and conflicts arose between them. As pointed out by the author, these conflicts were inevitable since they sprang from disagreements in the basic philosophies of the two men. Turgenev was an atheist while Tolstoy upheld religion, God and morality as essential in life.

A deep breach between the men occurred over the "pretense" of Turgenev's daughter patching the clothes of the poor as a charitable deed. Tolstoy condemned this act as a "theatrical farce," a flagrant hipocrisy which he despised• severely. In spite of this, however, the two men understood the motives and actions of the other with distinct clarity.

Ivan Bunin, famous Russian Nobel Prize winner, and Tolstoy both upheld sin-plicity and democracy in life. Although Bunin was eager to assert support for simplicity in life, Tolstoy warned him ' not to bear a torch with his ideas. He pointed out that "one can be a good man in any kind of life." He philosophized further that "there is no happiness in life, only occasional flares of it."

Tolstoy adMired Fet as an "independent thinker."

N. N. Strakhov gained Tolstoy's admiration and respect as a penatrating thinker and outstanding Russian . literary. critic.

N. N. Gaj, famous painter, won Tolstoy's friendship through their mutual spiritual rebirth. Tolstoy deeply valued Gaj's sincerity, love and religious feelings.

The author asserts firmly that Dr. D. P. Markovicky was Tolstoy's most faithful friend, as well as personal physician and secretary. Dr. Markovicky recognized Tolstoy's genius and constantly took notes on Tolstoy's conversations of sh1,plicity and the simple way of life. He had perhaps the greatest insight of Tolstoy's influence on Mahatma Gandhi.

Although the author is no doubt a devoted follower of Tolstoy, he did not neglect to present a perhaps neglected criticism felt by some people through his description of Tolstoy's relations with T. G. Masaryk the first president of the democratic Czechoslovak republic.

Upon visiting with Tolstoy, he felt an air of artificiality in Tolstoy's attempts to pattern his life after that of a rustic farmer. The paradox of lavish furnishmention the fagged clothes and squalor ings in part of the house and of the dreary - coldness of the study, not to in the peasants quarters gave Masaryk a feeling almost approaching contempt for this great genius.

Masaryk stated emphatically that he "didn't like -empty talking about Slavonic ideals and patriotism."

Th6 most interesting characteristic of the description of the last days of Tolstoy is not the biographical sketches so much as the realization that it is a personal interview with Dr. Makovicky, Tolstoy's physician and devoted follower.

This personal touch which is felt through the entire book illustrates more vividly than ever the philosophy of this man who had such a profound insight Tolstoy's feeling for Chekhov and into man's conscience.

SOKOL ZIZKA, DALLAS, TEXAS (Received Too Late) Dear Sisters and Brothers: The solid Czechoslovak American Citizens of Dallas have arranged an honorable welcome for our U. S. Senator Roman L. Hruska, first United States Senator of Czechoslovak descent, with a banquet at the Statler Hotel at 7 o'clock Sunday evening, September 28th.

Senator Roman L. Hruska is on the Judiciary and Water-Ways Conservation Program Committee in Congress. He will speak to the American public Monday Sept. 29th on the Water Conservation Program in Dallas.

He will speak to us about our Youth Program, the different fraternal organizations and what they are doing in Texas, especially about the new Sokol drive for our new gymnasium for our youngsters'in Dallas, Texas. Let me quote part of his letter writen to me a few days ago: "It makes me very proud that some of the folks of Czechoslovak descent are planning to build a new Sokol gymnasium in Dallas. I certainly want to indorse this project with every enthusiasm that I can voice. The Sokols and their fine work have meant a great deal to America by building sound bodies and teaching young men and young women a way of life, which is wholesome and healthy." Signed Roman L. Hruska.

He sent me under separate cover, several reprints of some remarks he made on the Senate floor in Congress in regard to the 40th Anniversary of Czechoslovak Republic independence. I am sending one to our editor of the Vestnik or to anyone else, that might be interested if you write me for same.

VESTNIK WEST, TEXAS to make the public acquainted with Sokols aims and honest efforts, because the ignorance of the general public concerning Sokol's work and other youth movements in our fraternal organization is pathetic. Whose fault is it? Nobody but ours, we don't advertise our noble work like it should be advertised.

Here again I will explain, what Sokol Zizka of Dallas represents: Our Organization is a charitable corporatidn with its office in Dallas, Texas. This is a democratice society modeled after the original organization ,,founded in 1862 by Dr. Miroslav Tyrs in Czechoslovakia and dedicated to the principals of physical fitness and moral, national, patriotic and democratic spirit.

Our organization has many educational projects, among them gymnastic schools, clinics, entertainments, excursions, meetings, and exhibitions. We attempt to train children and provide for them healthful and well-supervised gymnastic schooling and thereby we hope to keep the children off the streets and contribute our small part to good citizenship Our Comthittee appreciates it very much if you write us and endorse our drive for building funds here in Dallas. We know that your influence in this matter will be of great benefit and 'help us and it will be forever appreciated.

Fraternally yours, Hugo Schefcak, Chairman Building Fund Drive Sokol Zizka and Lodge Jaro 1267 Harlandale, Dallas 16.

Tr MOULTC , T_;XAS Dear Readers of the Vestnik: I will try to write about our visit or trip which we took so suddenly Tuesday morning, Sept. 16.

Brother Charles and wife Julia of Sweet Home came by our home going on a trip to Temple and asked us to go along. We didn't hesitate much and took them up. At once we got into their car and off we went. For driver they had their granddaughter Miss Shirley Keilers of Houston, - Texas. She is employed by Grey Hound , Bus Lines for the last several years. She is spending one week of her vacation here and being a good driver she came in handy to drive for us. She accepted and did a very good job of it. First stop on Highway 90 was made in Taylor at the SPJST Rest Home.

It is on Highway 95, just outside of the city going north. It was noon when we got there. It is a real nice modern building on plenty of nice level blackland with plenty of parking space. There is plenty of space for planting trees and shrubbery. There was an older man in front of the Home working in the flower beds who took us in through the main entrance into a nice large waiting room where their was a large group of older people, men and women talking, walking around almost like at a picnic. Some gathered around the big, long tables where the dinner was to be served to all of them, coming out of their ,large modern kitchen and being served by-two nice ladies in white. There Was plenty of good wholesome • food prepared Czech-style and you might knoW it waS de-; iicious.

Mr. and Mrs. Rudy 'Trout cat the door and took us all through the HoMe, showed us a typical occupied roam, some still vacant ones all were in 'mmaculate condition. We spoke Czeeh to the residents, some shook their heads saying "no savvy" for they were riot Czechs. Some walked up to us to get acquainted and said they were from Victoria, Houston and other places.

There were some from New York and New Jersey. All of these residents were friendly folks glad to ,see visitors and talk to then. We also enjoyed meeting them, talking with them; even found out that some were related to us etc.

Mr. Lesikar from Victoria was one of these nice old gentlemen, very talkative and inviting us to come again.

We urge everyone going through Taylor to stop at the SPJST Rest Home on

Wednesday, October 1, 1958 the hill, and pay them a visit — you won't regret it.

After leaving the Rest Home, we drove toward Temple. We saw some cotton in the fields and didn't appear to be a bumper crop, some places made more, others less — there were too many insects, we understand. Farmers must use a lot of poison for almost everything in order to make a crop.

We got to Brother L. TIavlik's home who lives on South First Street about 1 o'clock. He was not at home — being busy on his route selling his merchandise. Brother Havlik operates a wholesale house, selling meats of all kinds, cheese, oleo, sausage and all that goes with his line of business. He has been in business for several years and is doing OK. His wife, Annie, is his helper, his bookkeeper, secretary, etc. When we over, she was in her kitchen preparing us a big dinner which she had finished in no time. In the meantime, Brother Havlik came in for dinner and was surprised to see all of us there but also glad to see us. We hadn't been there for several years. At the table his wife said she would make a big supper and invite all of the other relatives, so she rang them up; Sister Minnie Francis and Marie; Brother Joe a patient at the VA Hospital there. They all came later in the evening, including our cousin Oscar Kral and we all enjoyed the meal together.

During the conversation, Sister Minnie invited all of us to a big dinner she said she would prepare for us the next day: we all accepted this invitation.

Next on the program we planned to visit some of our old friends, so we rode to Kings Daughters Hospital to see Dr. Amos Chernosky. We found him and he was glad as well as surprised to see us all. He looks great only aged like all the rest of us. Then we saw Mr. Klecka, one of the doctor's patients and also Wm. Adam who also is there with a broken hip. He has been there going on four months now, just learning to walk in a walker. All were surprised and glad to see us. From there we drove by Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Marek's who live on Bentley Hill in a nice home, they were surprised by our unexpected visit, and thanking us for same. I used to work in a General Department Store in 1916-17 which they operated in the country, named after themselves, Mareksville, now known as Zabcikville. They later retired and moved to Temple. He said: ".John, you know it's over 40 years since we moved here to Temple! Time sure flies. Especially if we are both in poor health, which ages a person that much faster."

ter the contest, who knows you might win a prize.

Must stop now because I am a little late with this report, hope it will find a space in the Vestnik.

Your Reporter Mrs. Jerry Zavodny ca• t 1 West, Texas Dear Brothers, Sisters and Friends: This is just a reminder that our next Lodge Meeting will be held Sunday, Oct. 5, at 1:30 p.m. at the Cottonwood Lodge No. 6 Hall, so please try and remember that date and come.

We also want to discuss our Family Night which will come up on our next month's meeting agenda and that Family Night will be on Sunday, November 2, at 4:00 p.m. and after the meeting we want to have our Turkey Supper, a Dance and Playing of Games or just talking, whatever anyone likes to do.

So, brothers and sisters, you all be sure to come. to this Meeting October 5 and let's decide what to do.

There was no Meeting held last month at our Lodge No. 6, because there wasn't enough members present. Our Secretary was out of town and the weather was rainy so the Meeting was postponed until next month, October 5th.

I also want to mention that one of our brothers' mother is very sick, she is Mrs. Marie Sumbera. She is in bed at this writing and has been slightly ill for several months. She lives with her son, Jerry, and is now at Route 2, West.

She is also a long-time member of the SPJST Lodge at Seymour. Our prayers are for her and that she will soon feel much better.

With best wishes to all, I remain as always, Fraternally yours, Ruth Krizan, Reporter •

and a writeup were in a previous issue of the Vestnik.

The only member reported on the sick list was Sister Eleanora. Spat-Mel who was injured in a traffic accident we wish her a speedy recovery so she could be present a t our next meeting.

The supper which we were supposed to have prepared for the Temple Credit Women's Club was not held because they refused our bid at almoA the last minute. They did not want to pay for the musicians which were to furnish the music for the dance.

Brother Anton Mott brought the electric adding machine to the meeting. The exact price paid, I do not know. The old machine was purchased by Brother F. E. Hejl, Jr., because the lodge would not have any use for it now.

What is it most of us could me? The far=-Ders answer to this question would probably be at least two or three weeks of continued clear weather. The crops are good .but the harvest is so slow. The rainy weather keeps you out of the fields and the migrant Mexican laborers have moved on to West Texas. The local laborers are steadily employed. The weather and labor problems are almost equal headaches this year.

The next meeting will be on October 5th so members, keep this date. in mind and come to the meeting. We need a boost in attendance.

Wishing all of you fair skies and good health, I remain Fraternally yours, Mrs. Jerry Pechal, Reporter Editor's note: Thanks for your very informative letter.

As a sort of added climaX, the gymnasts got a thrill out of seeing theme selves on television, on a local news program. All being a bunch of harns (slot/al style) many of us sat up late or got up early . to catch every edition of the program to see ourselves as TV stars.

We want to thank everyone who worked on the progarm, the food and the cleaning up and everyone who attended and participated in the program. We hope you enjoyed the day, as we did.

Dear Readers, I guess I will squeze in again and rite a few lines.

Last Sunday, we attended the SPJST District meeting in Ennis, Texas. We enjoyed a Delicious Dinner and that fine program they had.

Today we are having a Brownie meeting at our school. I'm joining again. Last year I won a beautiful Brownie Bracelet for the work I have done.

Today I was helping my mother plant a fall garden. I love to help my mother and my father, too.

Wednesday, October 1, 1958 Santa Claus would bring me one.

I have a little dog, his name is Shorty.

Maybe he would also get to ride the horse with me.

Thank you.

Yours very truly, Helen Kolenovsky • ,f,„ • LODGE NO. 66 WACO, TEXAS Dear Readers, Well, here I am again! I hope you have enjoyed all of my past letters. As you all probably know, Sunday, Sept.

14, District III had their District Meeting. I saw quite a few interesting and important people who attended this meeting. I saw Ben Jarma, director of the famous SPJST Softball team in Dallas; then I saw Joe B. Hejny, who is Vice President of the Supreme Lodge.

Then I Saw a very special man and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. L. 0. Hosek, editor of the Vestnik. We saw quite a few people from Dallas and Ennis. I think Lodge No. 66 had a very large attendance also. The meeting started about 10:30 a.m. and it was adjourned for about two hours for dinner. The dinner was very delicious, and I would like to let the ladies who helped with it, know we enjoyed it very much.

The Meeting began again at 2:00 p.m.

But, before the meeting started the Ennis' youth put on a very nice show for the audience. About eight of the youth tang a song in Czech and then in English, then a boy played a solo on the piano. and about seven or eight of the boys of Ennis gave a style show on the new look." They paraded across the stage with sacks or chemises, with hats and handbags. They got quite a few whistles. The secretary of District III was the narrator for the Show.

Then, after the program, the officers started the meeting. About the middle of the afternoon, one of the officers made a motion, that this District have a District Queen. Everyone went along with the idea, so all the arrangements were left up to Mrs. Ceska, District Youth Director. Then a very wonderful talk was given by Mrs. Libbie Parma, No. 66 Youth Director. She introduced LaNell Ceska and me to the members as being elected vice president and president of our newly-organized youth club at Lodge No. 66.

Then the meeting adjourned about 4:30 p.m. A lot of the members left after the meeting, so a few of the youth danced to the music of the juke-box.About 5:30 we left. I hope everyone enjoyed their selves at the dance that night.

VE S TN tIC WESI, TEXAS I would like to thank everyone and anyone who might have had anything to do with showing our adult and youth members such a wonderful time. I hope to see as many nice and wonderful people who attended this wonderful meeting at the next District III meeting.

Thank you so very much!

Now that school has started, everyone is real busy studying. I also decided to join the school band. My parents got me a clarinet to play. I enjoy music very much.

The District III meeting held in Ennis was well attended. The program was short, but real good. The Fashion Show presented six models. All modeling the latest women's fashions. If you recall the models were our Ennis boys. They are Milton and George, Gurecky, Larry Lasnsky, Hubert Docteur, Danny Novy and Roger Nesuda. I hope I named them all.

Wednesday, October 1, 1958 SAVINGS GROWTH TOPPED YEAR'S RISE IN DEBT For the second time in the current decade, the American people last year added more to their "nest egg" in life insurance and other accumulated longterm savings than they expanded their debt, indicating a growing restraint on the part of the typical consumer in response to the growing impact of inflation on the fan-wily budget and the adjustment trend in the economy.

It is true that the people at large went deeper into debt to the tune of more than a billion dollars a month as an average for 1957 in their borrowing to buy homes, cars, and other goods and services. The combined total of mortg7ges on one-to-four family nonfarm h onies, consumer credit, farm mortgage and non-real estate deht, and life insurance policy loans increased by an estimated $12 3/4 billions for the year.

As against this, however, the total of accumulated long-term savings of individuals in life insurance, savings accounts, savings and loan associations, and current redemption value of U.S. Savings Bonds owned by individuals, rose by an estimated $13 1/2 billions during 1957. Thus the people at large went 94 cents deeper into debt during the year for every dollar of increase in their accumulated long-term savings.

This showing is in marked contrast with 1956 when the net expansion in personal debt exceeded the year's increase in long-term savings by $2 billions, or an increase of $1.16 in debt to every $1 in savings. An even wider discrepancy between the two occurred in the buying spree of 1955, when the people expanded their personal debt by a record $20 billions during the year, some $7 billions more than the year's growth in savings, or an increase of $159 in debt to every $1 in savings. In 1954, personal debts grew by $11 1/2 billions and accumulated long-term savings by about $13 3/4 billions, an increase of only 84 cents in debt for every dollar of savings.

Total personal debt at the end of 1957 is estimated at approximately $177 billions, according to data from private and government sources, more than double the comparable figure of $82.1 billions in 1950. During this period accumulated long-term savings of individuals as compiled by the Federal Hone Loan Bank Board rose from $175 1/2 billions to just under $260 billions, up nearly 50 per cent.

Vt STNt -- WEST, TEXAS TEXAS DEPT'. OE AGRICULTURE Back to the Farm and Off the Unemployment List The old and uneasy sign of business and production let-ups — unemployment — has rea/ od its unwelcome head once more, and once again our government planners boilin to wonder how to get around this problem.

Operating on so tight a production and employment schedule as has American business in recent years, the least sign of downward adjustment invariably throws thousands of workers out of jobs and causes us to wonder just what is wrong with our economic system, employment-wise.

The most feasible resolution of many of our unemployment problems is to recal many of the jobless back to the valuable post they left during trying times — agriculture. , There appears to be a close connection between rural population declines and recent increases in unemployment.

Those farmers 'who left the land in times of stress, such as our recent crippling drouth, found: - unskilled jobs in the labor market at a time when production business a n d government spending levels were high and when the slack appears between labor needed and labor available, it is the ex-farmers who usually are the first to be laid off.

In the past seven years, our farm population dropped from 25 million perSons to 22 and a quarter million. This means a loss of nearly three million rural citizens in less than ten years — one of the most rapid declines in history: If we could, re-absorb into agriculture all these people, it would take a tremendous cut out of our unemployment roles.

In Texas, the ratio between farmers lost and unemployed persOns is even higher. In the closing weeks of 1957 we has 149,000 unemployed persons on the rolls. Since 1950, we have lost 231,000 persons off Texas farms, For that terrific loss, of course, we have the drouth largely to blame.

But the prevalin attitude in higher government circles of "get rid of the small farmers" hasn't helped the situation any. If agriculture is to help relieve the unemployment situation — and it can — Washington has got to do an about-face and begin encouraging a return to the farm. )• •( ABOUT THE HEALTH OF (WA: `YOUTH - -

Ennuis rites, you probably listen to complaints about acne — the scourge of teenagers 'since early times.

There has been much study of acne I as a skin disease, but the exact cause is I still undetermined. The body's hormonal bailance, nutrition, and climate, and certain changes of activity in a youth's physicial makeup as he attains adolescence is a major contribution to the I problem.

Excess oil is emitted, combining with ■ an overgrowth of skin about the pores, thus obstructing the openings so that oil gland canals become plugged with dried, fatty material causing a local skin obstruction ranging from a tiny blackhead to tender inflamed cysts containing pus.

The two main goals of skin care are improving appearance for psychological reasons and preventing permanent scarring. A good cleansing with hot soapy water and a gentle massage with the finger tips for five to ten minutes each night should be a rule. Never scrub the skin vigorously or roughly as this injures the tender infected dermis. After the skin is rinsed thoroughly with cool water and patted dry, a physician's recommended lotion or ointment may be applied. Also pay attention to your scalp, since proper care of the scalp seems to improve the facial acne.

If you have acne, avoid adding more oils in the form of cosmetic creams, lotion,s or pomades. Also, avoid makeup bases and powders as they may further obstruct the pores.

Some sucess with ultraviolent ligt has been obtained, especially in winter months, but such devices should be used only under the care and supervision of your physician. They can be dangerous in the hands of the uninformed.

In order to improve the appearance of the skin, some attention must be paid to the acne blernish.es themselves. You are urged to refrain from squeezing blackheads, pustules, and cysts to avoid spread of infection. Hot compresses, frequent cleansing and the medications prescribed by a physician will usually control the blemishes.

There is some indication that diet is a contributing factor in some instances.

A reduction in your intake of nuts, strong cheeses and Achocolate should be undertaken in many cases.

Observe the proved rules of good health. Get plenty of exercise and enough sleep. Eat regular, well-balanced meals and drink six to eight glasses of water each day. Frequent baths and shampoos will keep the excess oils from accumulating.

SAVING AND SPENDING are the two sides of every coin (every piece of "folding money" too). Your success in getting ahead financially depends largely on which side you look at FIRST. If you look at the spending side first, you may never get around to the SAVING side at all. Better attend to your saving before you ever start spending. So you better attend to your saving through an adequate LIFE INSURANCE program where your. Dollars will work for you and your dear ones. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Contact your local organizer or write direct to
