Karel Havlieek narodil se 31. rijna 1821 v Borove u Piibysiavi ze zamo2ne Ceske rodiny kupecke. Do obeene gicoly chodil v rodigti, do gkoly hlavni, aby se naudil 'remand, v Jihlave. V Praze studoval filosofii, venoval se te2 studio slovanskYch jazykt. V lad roku 1842 podnikl del gi cestu do Krakova a navratem dolma pies Slovensko seznamil se tam s nekolika vlasteneckYmi Slovaky. Kdyi se vratil do Prahy, doporueil no Safakik za domaciho uditele u sveho ptitele v Rusku, kde se Havlieek zdokonalil. Po tkimesienim pobytu yank ji2 prohledl zkalenost vy ggich tkid i zotrodeni sedlakt. Stava se z nej bystrijr pozorovatel, kritik, reformator. Rozearovan z risofilstvi vratil ae r.

1844 domil. Nabadal Slovany, aby se spojili a celou svou silou se pticinili o demokritisaci rise. Rozhodl se pactive pro Rakousko. Doufal, 2e Ire jej pferodit a k tomu cili sindtovala jeho vela politika.

V tomto Usili pokradoval jeho vrstevnik PalackY a pozdeji tee Masaryk a jini deg ti politikove.

V iinoru propukla revoluce ye Francii, v bteznu ozval se z Cher projev Koguttiv, v Praze konala, se pamatni schtize v geslovanska. Revoluce ve Vidni 1848 piivodila pad Metternich& a tim i svoboda, tisku a sub cisate Ferclinanda, sZe narodfun bude udelena Ustava. Havlieek vyu2i1 teto doby a zalail velkY CeskY denik "Narodni noviny". Byly to prvni desk& noviny v demokratickem merit, v nieh2 spattoval Havlieek midnost, aby ni2gi k vyggimu vzhinat se povznesl, aby nevzdCan;c7 se vzdelal a tak vzdelanemu se vyrovnal. "2adna moo tohoto sveta. a byt' se s ceWm peklem spohila, neudrii narod vzdelanY, uglechtilY a stateencr v poddanosti, v otroctvi." Takova byla Havlielcova, demokracie. Ralcauska vlada, hle dala mo2nost, jak by se zbavila nenavide neho buditele deskeho lidu, jakYmkoliv zpilsobein. Kdy2 Havlieek se nedal koupit, hrozeb a vYstrah se nelekl, v noel 15. pro since 1851 byl zateen a odvezen jako provinilec do vyhnanstvi — do Brix enu v Tyrolich. Tarn ztravil dtyti leta a tam vytvotil klasia6, dila eesteho humoru a satiry. Kd34 se vratil k nufcenemu pobytu v Nemeckem Brodu, to se dovedel, ae pied 14 dny skonala jeho milovand 2ena Juiie. Take ona padla za obet' krutemu re2imu. Pc) v gech techto pro2itSich utrpenich Havlidek chtadl telesne i du gevne a 29. dervence 1856 v Praze zemtel. Tak se skoneila pozemska pout' tohoto statedneho mute pevr4ith zasad a nesmirne Lasky k narodu a vlasti.

"Ano, doopravdy!"

"Smim vas tedy polibit?"

"Smite. Od tohoto okamtiku pattime jeden druhemu: chci bYti Vati druhou Ve'rou."

Krasna Irma ocitla se po prve v rudi mute, milence. Nepospichala z n6ho.

Federal or State Powers?

The controversy over late decisions and attitudes of the Supreme Court of the United States may seem complex and legalistic, but the fundamental point at issue can be stated simply. It ih this: Has the Court gone an undue distance beyond its proper role as a judicial body and, in effect, made itself a legislative body — and has it created law instead of confining itself to interpreting law?

The majority of the Chief Justices of our state supreme courts believe that the answer to the question is YES. They recently met in conference, and a 10member committee prepared a report on the Supreme Court which was subseqiiently approved by Chief Justices of 36 of the states The report observes that the outstanding development in federal-state relations since the adoption of the Constitution has been expansion of the federal power at the expense of state powers. Second only to this in importance has been the development of the immense power of the Supreme Court in both national and state affairs. The Court, the report states, "is not merely the final arbiter of the law; it is.E the maker of policy in many major social and economic fields. It is not subject to the restraints to which a legislative body is subject."

The fear of the state Chief Justices is that the federal power may advance to the virtual extinction of state power.

To quote the report again, "We believe that strong state and local governments are essential to the effective functioning of the American system of federal government; that they should not be sacrificed needlessly to leveling and sometimes deadening, uniformity — we think the over-all tendency of decisions of the Supreme Court over the last 25 years or more has been to press the extension of federal power and to press it rapidly — we believe — the Supreme Court too often has tended to adopt the

shook it violently, and howled through its branches.

To the boy, the tree, strong though it was, seemed about to be torn to pieces.

"Look father," he said, pointing upward, "what the wind is doing to that pine!"

The full fury of the blast just then made the pine shudder and sway. It heaved desperately against the black sky.

"Storms are an old story to that tree," said the father. "A tree like that lives in a struggle from the time it is high enough to catch the first breath of air.

Tennyson says a tree is 'storm-strengthened on a windy site.' The strongest trees are always those that have weathered the greatest number of gales. Besides, the question is not what is happening to the tree, but what is happening in the tree.

"The pine doesn't really seem to mind fighting the storm, does it?" the boy said.

"No, because it is able to withstand the strongest wind," the father answered. "It's the same vtith us. It really doesnt matter what happens to us, but it matters a great deal what happens in us."

role of policymaker without proper judicial restraint."

In the view of the 36 state Chief Justices, it is incumbent for the highest court "to be as sure as is humanly possible that it is adhering to the the fundamentals of the Constitution with regard to the distribution of power and the separation of powers, and with regard to the limitations of judicial power which are implicit in such separation and distribution, and that it is not merely given effect to what it may deem Dear Sisters and Brothers: desirable."

The Example of the Pine

Wednesday, Oetober 29; 1958

Abusing Texas Writers in national magazines in recent years have been doing a great injustice to Texas, stooping to the sensational, scandalous and inaccurate, entirely omitting mention of real accomplishments by Texas and its citizens.

If a Texan makes a success of any business besides oil it is never referred to in these magazines. There are many significant developments in Texas, governmental and industrial, that merit national attention but they are mostly ignored by national writers.

For instance Texas has 7,400 public schools, while New York, with nearly twice the population of Texas has only 5,436. California, population 10,000,000 has but 4,237, but magazines make no reference to this achievement. Texas has 53 junior and senior colleges under state control and support, New York having only 30. And the 55th legislature gave the thousands of public school teachers an annual pay raise of $400 each. No publicity outside of Texas.

It will interest the American people, although not published outside of Texas, to know the Texas public school permanent fund now totals $360,000:000 while the permanent fund of the University of Texas has reached $272,000,000 The enor.Dous financial support was derived from mineral leases and royalties on lands given the schools and university many Years ago. No other state can match this financial aid to education.

There is another important economic condition in Texas that escapes the magazine. In Texas unemployment benefits are paid ,to about 100,000 while in New York the unemployed total is 632,000 Pennsylvania having 605,000, California is listed as having 334,000 unemployed requiring pay.

Again, Texas has 559 hospitals,. compared with 497 in New Work.

The total annual value of Texas mineral production has jumped to $4,300,C00,000 oil, being only one of 30 minerals this state yields. The yearly value of Texas chemical products is now about $1,000,000,000 and the industry is rapidly expanding. Its present plant investment of $2,500,000,000 will be increased by $700,000,000 within two years but magazines assign no Poportance to this develompent. The value of Texas manufactured products has soared to $4,000,000,000 a year with large expansion projects planned, the program to include nearly $1,000,000,000 in the steel industry alone. Texas sulphur also plans expansions.

Now, take Texas farms and ranches.

Some magazines have gone all out to tell the public that Texas agriculture and livestock have been ruined by the drought. Yet the record shows the cash income from farms and ranches is close to $1,800,000,000 a year, with better conditions this income has been increased.

Some writers are over-fond of representing the Texas farmer as down-trodden and poverty-stricken, with oil millionaires dominating him, legislators and all other groups, a stupid assumption. Many Texas farmers have greatly benefited by discovery of minerals on their lands.

Some farmers licked the drought with improved irrigation systems, while others raised one bale of cotton to the acre.

But all this was ignored by magazines.

It was not sensational and scandalous.

District II Meeting in

Taylor The semi-annual meeting of District II, was held Sunday, October 19 at Taylor, Texas at Lodge Praha No, 29.

Brother Calvin Chervenka, President Of District II, called the meeting to order at 11:15 to welcome the membership present.

Brother Rueben Leshikar, President of Lodge Praha No. 29, welcomed everyone to Lodge Praha and wished them a good time and for the District Meeting, success.

The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag followed and then Brother C. Chervenka asked us to remain standing in tribute to those in the District and Lodge who have left the ranks in the brotherhood since the last District Meeting, with a minute's silent prayer.

The recognition of Supreme Lodge officers, District officers, Lodge officers was then presented, with the Roll Call of lodges in District IL Of the seven districts in our brotherhood, five were represented, with two District Youth Directors, namely: Sister R. Dina Ceska from District III, and Sister Clara Hejl form District II, while Sister Marcela Kleperlik represented the Lodge Youth Leader from District VII. Brother Chervenka called roll of representatives from the different Czech Organizations in Texas of which only two were represented. The, minutes of the last District were approved as read.

Inasmuch as. this was Youth Achieve-

CALVIN C. CIILRVEIIKA

merit Day, with accent on Youth, the business session was held to a minimum.

Brother Edward Marek, Supreme Lodge President and member of District II, selected judges for the awarding of prizes to the Handicraft Contest as well as Talent Contest, as follows: Brother and Sister Hugo Schefcak of Dallas and District III; Brother and Sister Vacla y Barina of Kovar and District I; Sister Emma Ceska, District Youth Director from District III, and from the Waco Lodge No. 66, Brother and Sister Jaro Kleperlik of San Antonio Lodge 133 and District VII. Brother Charles Navratil, District II Director as well as Director of the .SPJST Rest Home in Taylor spoke in Czech in which he pledged cooperation with any Organizer, or member in the Order.

Regarding the Rest Home, Brother Navratil, gave us some figures on the cost of the Rest Home what was received and what debt is still outstanding.

Brother Navratil stated that the various committees would meet together to compile a Finoncial Statement for the Home by the end of the year. Humorously, Brother Navratil said: "Don't envy the people on the Rest Home Directorship.

They have donated a lot of their time as well as their own personal money to get the project rolling and as called for by necessity." Brother Navratil asked that we not forget the Rest Home with our contributions.

Brother Ed Sralla from District VI and Brother J. M. Skrabanek from District V, as announced', are the newly elected Directors to the Rest Home Board of Directors to fill expired terms of Brother Sablatura and Brother Valcik. Their duties will start with the January 1959 meeting.

Brother Ben Mikolaj, District II Organizer read his report of the standing of District II Organizers in their Insurance Selling Contest. He remarked hat District II will really have to get to work to make a showing. "I would like to again ask the membership to help the organizers. If you know of olks that need insurance and if you eel that they should have our organizer call on them, notify the organizer. Let's go to selling this insurance. Regardless of how the contest comes out," Brother Mikolaj stated, "we want more members for our Order. The more we get, the ore we help our Order." Brother Mikolaj 'concluded that we have a product that we can be proud of and that we need to get out and sell it and that he stands ready and willing to go out and help any of his organizers sign Np new membership.

Wednesday, October 29, 1958 District President Chervenka, urged that District II organizers call on Brother Mikolaj when they need his assistance.

The discussion of having the next, The Third Annual Youth Achievement Day at Camp Tahoya, near Belton, Texas with the District Officers plus the Youth Directors forming an investigating committee to ascertain the possibilities of having this Youth Day at Camp Tahoya, possibly booking a date in advance, all of which is to be announced later.

Camp Tahoya has all the facilities for outdoor fun, swimming pool, tennis courts, picnic grounds, etc. It is used by the Boy Scouts and other Youth Organizations and their calendar gets filled rapidly, therefore it is necessary to book dates in advance. It is on Highway 81 going south toward Austin, in central Texa.

Brother Vitek, District Treasurer, coming late because of having to secure prize money for the Handicraft and Talent Contest, gave his Report to the District.

The selection of the next District II Meeting was deferred until after lunch when Lodge 47 in Seaton invited the District for the Spring 1959 meeting which was accepted.

Dinner time found the Hall quite full and we all went down to the ground floor for dinner. They have this Taylor Hall on two levels, the upper floor with its stage and its many windows for dancing and meetings while the ground floor has its soft drink bar and 1.,rge dining area, kitchen and vestibule.

White spotless tables with chairs stood ready to receive the hungry folks for the turkey and dressing with all the trimmings, and magically the food disappeared so fast in this goo'd company.

Our thanks goes to the Lodge Praha sisters in the kitchen who took care of our needs so efficiently and well. These are the lodge workers who miss the meet ings to feed . the crowd; ordinarily a thankless job, but a lot of us serving in the same capacity in our lodges appreciate their work, for without the food our meetings just couldn't make all day!

We visited while the judges of the Handicraft Contest laid out upstairs, were awarding the prize ribbons.

This Handicraft Contest was the best District Handcraft Contest the Editor and wife have been privileged to see. It was gratifying to see so many boys in this contest. You might wonder what could a boy enter. Well, these boys are original. One had made an electric egg candler out of a syrup bucket, most ingenious but practical. For those of you

Wednesday, October 29,-1958 who don't know what an egg-candler is, it is an electric light bulb encased with an opening the size of an egg on one side, whereby one can tell a fresh egg from a bad one by passing it between the lighted bulb and the person. Then, the airplane models were wonderful, showing infinite patience in assembling so many tiny parts etc., as were the aircraft carriers, men-of-war, there was a beautifully made crystal-earphone radio set, cute bird houses, a seven foot bow of oak smooth and fine with its arrow, leather belts, billfolds with the embossed relief, etc.

The girls submitted the most amazing array of gorgeous crochet pieces! There were pot holders, doilies, vanity sets, dresser scarves, pillowcases, etc. Blouses and skirts of which there were several, clay modeling, straw weaving, free drawing. One couldn't keep fro xv admiring all of these things over and over again.

They will be wonderful pieces for the Hope Chest for use in their homes when they have homes and families of their own.

At 2:15 the judges having indicated they had finished the awarding of ribbons, President Chervenka called the afternoon session to order.

Brother Edward Marek, President of the Supreme Lodge brought greetings from fellow officers of the Supreme Lodge who were unable to be present, and from Brother F. A. Marek who has been a member for 54 years and was unable to be present at the District Meeting.

Brother Marek commended the Youth program in District II, and thanked the Youth and their Leader for the performance about to be presented and for the wonderful display of Handicraft.

Brother Marek touched upon the recent National Fraternal Congress held in Florida and of the pending Texas Fraternal Congress to be held in Dallas.

Speaking in Czech again Brother Marek assures District II that the Supreme Lodge officers are glad to be here to see and to enjoy the fraternal work with the Youth in our midst.

Editor Hosek urged, that when we leave here this afternoon, that we take along with us the determination to carry on our work in our individual lodges for the good of our brotherhood. "I think it is our duty as memebers of our fraternity to leave an example to those young folks; that we are not only brothers and sisters by the spoken word, but through our own actions that we work together in friendship and help each other when time comes and we need help." Brother Hosek then spoke in the same vein in Czech, stressing that we should appreciate our organizers and

Regarding the Rest Home, Brother Hosek stated that we should individually support our beautiful Rest Home. He then saluted all the sisters and brothers who contribute to the Vestnik from their lodges and communities to naale the Vestnik what it is today, well liked and widely read.

Sister Emma Ceska, Youth Director of District III, introduced by President Cervenka as guest speaker, said: "I think it is gratifying to see the number of young people who are here, in fact, I think we should certainly offer our congratulations to sister Clara Hejl, Director of District II, to her Youth Leaders of District II and to the 'mothers and fathers and friends. It is wonderful to see the cooperation that you have shown by the articles that were entered • e atas at ;now that in reading the progress of the District Report a lot of this can be contributed to the Youth Leaders in the District and its Lodges. I know that these boys and girls who are participating here today are proud of the award that they will win here today.

I know that these boys and girls ha ve looked forward to this event for some time. I am sure they have friends who will see the fun these SPJST youth have learning the programs, participating in contests and they will thus increase the membership in our SPJST," Sister Ceska said.

She urged our Youth to participate in as many clubs such as the 4-H, Fr A, FHA, etc., as possible stating that one learns something valuable from each of them. "Equally as important to our youth is a planned social and religious program. In reading of juvenile delinquency cases, we find in these reports that these youngsters lack a place to t2:0 to In their leisure hours." She felt that by having a lodge hall, a clean wholesome place for the youngsters to attend, that it will be an incentive to bring others into our lodges.

"I hope that you can bring your lodge officers around to see how important it is to plan for our youth and we urge the youth when they go to the lodge meetings to speak up and tell their lodge that they want activities, I believe they all will cooperate," Sister Ceska further stated.

"I think it is no to the Lodge Sisters to push this part of the program. When you have your next electiOn of officers in your lodge meeting, we do hope that you will encourage the selection of a good youth leader.

Sister Ceska.

"I can tell you here today that your sister Clara Hejl has done a marvelous job and in the years to come you can FO forward to greater work. Keep up the good work!" Sister Ceska concluded to a thunderous applause.

President Cervenka talked to the youth. He spoke of belonging to as many extra school organizations as possible that they may be valuable to you in their own way.

District President Chervenka then rec., ognized the lodge Youth Leaders and Brother Joe E. Hejny, Vice-President ot the Supreme Lodge who heads the Youth Program from the Supreme Lodge level.

Then the Youth Talent Contest was presented. First the youngsters from age one through six years of age, then form seven through twelve and then the youth from 13 through 18 years of age.

There is a varied amount of talent in this District. The uninhibited wee ones were the most endearing, of course.

To the doting kin, they were the show. They did have an opportunity to appear before an audience without getting stagefright, which is good for anyone. The musical numbers were all

It, was especially delightful to see the small children come up to receive their cash prizes. The paper money overwhelmed them -- they didn't know what to do with it. Then they were photographed by the Editor who hopes to publish the group in the Vestnik. Let's hope the picture turns out fine.

Sister Hejl then acknowledged and thanked all of those who helped judge the contests. Door Prizes for the Youth were won by Georgie Holly and Daniel Marek.

President Chervenka recognized all Organizers. Brother Joe B. Hejny thanked sister Ceska for coming to Taylor and presenting such a inspiring speech.

"OBZINKY na VESNICI," was written

by Richard Branald, and if you remember other plays and operettas by him, you will not be disappointed.

As you know, it has been about three years since we produced an operetta, and while we cannot say we are promising a complete operetta, this is a play which we shall combine with songs and music.

We hope to have more news for you in the near, future and hope you will look for it in the coming issues of the Vestnik.

One of our directors, Mr. Anton Svcstka, has returned to his activities after a seige of illness and a visit to the hospital. We are very glad to see him up and around as usual.

Again, to remind you to keep the date of November 16th in mind to enjoy a play at Studewood, Houston.

Wednesday, Octcher 29, 1958 LODGE NO. 47 SEATON, TEXAS Dear Sisters and Brothers: The time has passed so quickly since the last meeting. I guess it was because we were so busy with the field work since the weather was so nice.

The attendance at our last meeting was poor. Hope this next meeting will have a greater number attending: Sharon Kay Dubcak, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Daniel Dubcak, was admitted to our lodge.• Congratulations to the proud parents on their first child and may she bring you much happiness.

On the sick list are Brother J. F. Motl, charter member of our lodge, who underwent surgery recently and also Brother Ed Mikeska, who is seriously ill in a local hospital. We wish both of them a speedy recovery.

Brother Albert Mikeska brought a motion to the floor about the possibility of having photographs of all the past presidents made and then have them framed and hung on the wall of our lodge hall. Under each picture would be -written some important data, such as the name, the years in which he served a•: president, etc. This motion passed and Brother Mikeska was instructed to obtain the estimated cost of the project. Brother Mikeska volunteered to ffalrie the pictures himself. ,Ss n-)ost of you know, our annual meetg is the first Sunday in November. The nominating committee was appointed at the October meeting. The members on this committee are Brothers F. E. Hejl Jr., Albert Mikeska and Sister. Frances Hejl. Members are urged to come to the meeting to elect the officers for the corning year.

I wish to say that the district meeting in Taylor was real nice. Those ,children had such nice exhibits and also sang and played beautifully. The judges sure had their work cut out for them.

I enjoyed all of it and I am sure everyone who was present did, also. The next district 'II meeting will be held at our lodge, sometime in March.

Strana 21 bulbs within the group should be planted 12 to 18 inches apart. The plants can then sway in the breeze without becoming entangled with oneanother.

If you cannot plant your bulbs immediately upon arrival, and if they are not already in a polyethylene 'bag, put them in a plastic bag and keep in a cool place until you are ready to plant them.

The sooner they get into the ground, naturally the better. If by chance you have to store them for some time, they should be kept at 30 to 32 degrees F. and should be dusted with Arasan right in the plastic bag. If even the storage of your plastic packaged bulbs is impossible it is suggested that you place them in a cold frame, covered with straw, until the ground can be worked in spring.

For most of us in Texas, these problems are not likely in October, for October finds Texas just right to plant bulbs, transplant, roses, trees, etc.

Girls, I ran across a Cheese Cake recipe, one that is served in one of Hollywood's famous eating places that I want to pass. on to you. The good lady who gave it to me also served it as a dessert., It is delicious, easy to make and even the girls who have plenty of cottage cheese and cream and butter of their own, can make this with success. I'll call it Hollywood Cheese Cake. Now, where a Hollywood Cheese Cake may suggest a Pinup girl for some gentlemen, to the gourmet it means eating and just that.

Anyway, we make a graham cracker crust: or: 1 cup graham cracker crumbs 1/, stick melted margarin (that would be approximately 1/4 cup butter for the folks who have such thing; at home); 2 tablespoons of sugar; mixed togetherand spread in a square baking pan of 8x8 inches and baked in 375 degree oven' (6 minutes) and cool.

For the filler: 4 packages of 3 ounce each Philadelphia Cream. Cheese (that would be approximately % lb. cottage cheese with cream added to make the creamy consistency); 1/9 cup sugar; 1/2 teaspoon vanilla; 2 eggs; 1 tablespoon lemon juice; 1 teaspoon lemon rind grated; mix the above ingredients together, fold in 1/2 pint sour cream, pour in graham crasker crust, and bake 25 minutes in 375 oven (be sure and not overbake).

For the topping: 1/2 pint sour cream; 2 or 3 drops vanilla extract; 2 teaspoons powdered sugar, mix together and put on the cake. Refrigerate for several hours.

Now girls, this is very, very rich, as you can see. Not for weight reducers! It should be cut into 1 1/2 inch squares and served as a dessert for some special occasion. Covered with foil, it can be kept

DALLAS, TEXAS LODGE 84 Dear Members and Friends: Our Second annual Princess Dance of Lodge 84 in Dallas is now a thing of the past and like our first one, it was a success. It was a bigger success, in fact, than last year's.

A "Czech Day" was held at the State Fair of Texas October 18. It was very heartening to see so many people present, some of whom were Czech and some of whom were not. I'm quite sure that by the informative talk given by Mr. Miro Forma, our visitors, as well as many of our Czechs, learned; quite a bit about the Czechoslovakian history and culture. On completion of Mr. Parma's talk Richard Sykora, President of our Teen-Age Club, led all in the pledge of allegiance. Then Mr. Frank Henzen of our Lodge 84 sang the National Anthems of both the United States and Czechoslovakia.

Each Fraternal Lodge, both local and out of town, was represented in some way or another by their youth. Our own Lodge was represented very well. Justine Marie and Johnnie, the sweet children of our President, Brother Pokladnik and his wife, Mrs. Pokladnik, displayed their talent by a Czech song and dance.

These youngsters wore authentic costumes direct from Czechoslovakia. Our teen-agers danced the Beseda, and, as in many times before, received much favor from the onlookers for their appearance and for the presentation of the dance.

Czech pasteries were served by many of our dear Sisters who also wore appropriate costumes., It was really - a wonderful day and we sincerely hope that there will be many more "Czech Days" in the future.

Cordially, Jerry Ann Urban ) •& • ( ELM MOTT LODGE 66 Dear Readers: Here I was ready last week for our big Halloween Party that was Sunday the 26th at our Lodge 66 at Elm Mott.

We were all really ready for a big funtia-02 that night. I'm also having a Hal• loween Party at my school on October 31.

LODGE NO. 66, WACO, TEXAS Dear Readers, Sunday, October 19, 1958, District II had its second annual Youth Achievement Day at Taylor Lodge, Praha 29.

There were many divisions in the handicraft contest such as crocheting, original drawing, sewing and others. Many beautiful articles were entered by the Youth. Also there was a talent contest.

Youth from three years of age and up to teen-agers participated. The contest was enjoyed by parents, grandparents, and many friends.

I met many new friends at Taylor.

Some were from Seaton, Pflugerville, and other towns, which had lodges in District II. Everyone was very nice and I had a wonderful time. I hope I will see everyone again soon, perhaps at one of District III's meetings and Youth LODGE NO. 66, WACO, TEXAS Activity Days. Bye for.,now.

Mr. Jarma and his wife, Mrs. Lillie Jarma, came dressed as western people, Mrs. Jarma wore a very pretty long dress (which belong to Lodge No. came almost to the floor) and a pair of loafers.

Record Set In Mortorage Loans Life insurance companies of the United States extended a record volume of commercial mortgage financing last year bringing the aggregate of such financing outstanding at the start of this year to $7,660,000,000. This was reported today by the Institute of Life Insurance, based on an analysis of mortgage financing 1938-1957 by the Federal Home Loan Bank Board.

During 1957, the life companies' commercial mortgage financing newly undertaken added up to $1,440,000,000 according to this analysis. This record oneyear total of new financing was up 2 per cent from the previous year's aggregate and was nearly twice the 1952 figure. It was more than eight times the year's financing of such mortgages 14 years earlier. The 1957 total represented 30 per cent of all non-farm mortgage acquisitions of the life companies in the year.

The aggregate commercial mortgages held by the life companies have increased steadily for the past ten years and at the start of this year were nearly three times the total ten years ago. They now represent nearly 8 per cent of the total assets of the more than 1,300 life insurance companies.

These commercial mortgages, according to the Institute, represent in large part financing for small business. An analysis made last year of the mortgage transactions of four years ending with 1956 indicated that over 80 per cent of the number of commercial mortgages acquired were in amounts less than $250,000 each and about three-fourths of all corrcnercial mortgage loans were to firms with assets of less than $1,000,000.

The same analysis showed that the largest receipient of this type of business financing comprised retail trade establishments, which accounted for 43 to 48 per cent of the total number of commercial mortgage loans made. Manufacturing plants and office buildings were next, together accounting for 20 to 25 per cent. Hotels, garages, theatres and non-rail transportation accounted for 7 to 8 per cent. The remaining one-fourth of the loans were miscellaneous. ) ♦ 4♦( Confusing Dana: "Why is your car painted red on one side and green on the other?"

MEDICAL AID FOR OLDSTE:'S One of the commonest complaints of Texas oldsters living on pensions is that they have no funds to buy prescribed medicine, the Texas conumision of public welfare said here this week.

Many pensioners are simply not getting needed medicine and medical care for lack of funds, said John H. Winters of Austin to the Council of Social Agencies, a Community Chest affiliate, in the Dallas Public Library.

Other needy oldsters get treatment in county hospitals, in private hospitals that simply write the bill off or by doctors who do not get paid, Winters said.

The meeting of 100 Dallas health and

The Amendment (No. 81 would enable the Legislature to enact laws and provide some funds for medical care for people on public relief: Old-age pensioners, dependent claidren, needy blind, totally disabled.

It should surprise no one that $52 a ..oath leaves little for medical care if rent and food and clothing come out of that sum, Wiinters said.
