—HERALD— FOUNDED 1897 Postmaster: Please Send Form 3579 With Undeliverable Copies to SUPREME LODGE SPJST, P. 0. BOX 400, TEMPLE, TEX.

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK tion. A study of life insurance buying showed that two-thirds of ordinary life Selection of Insurance insurance policies purchased that year were on a non-medical basis. The averRisks age size of non-medical policies was $2,Americans applied for nearly 9.5 million ordinary life insuranc policies in 1957, and over 9.2 million of these policies applied for( over 97 per cent of the total) were accepted as within the health, occupational and character standards maintained for life insurance risks by the life insurance companies.

Less than 3 per cent or about 260,000 applications were declined with about 75 per cent of these declinations not qualifying because of the applicants' serious physical impairments, primarily heart ailments. Less than one-half of one per cent of the declined applications were turned down for occupational reasons.

In the interest of fairness to all policyholders, premiums must be commensurate with the mortality risks undertaken. Over the years, the life insurance companies have made continuous underwriting studies of physical conditions, family history, occupation and habits as they concern mortality and life expectancy, with a view to extending coverage, in an equitable manner, to as many people as possible. These studies of past experience enable the companies to make statistical analyses of the factors related to mortality.

Other factors contributing to the high acceptance rate of recent years are the continued gains in medicine and public health and the progress in job safety. As a result of these gains the companies are now able to accept applicants with health impairments or in occupations that were once considered uninsurable.

Many of these cases, of course require extra premiums on the policies issued, but some are now considered standard risks even though they would have been considered totally uninsurable a few decades ago.

Of the ordinary life insurance applications accepted in 1956, 94 per cent or 8.7 million policies, were accepted for is-

700 and in the aggregate they accounted for nearly one-third of ordinary purchases.

Each life insurance company has its own underwriting rules for accepting policy applcations. Liberalization in the selection of life insurance risks are achieved gradually and generally a new development is pioneered by a few companies on an experimental basis before PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE it is put into effect by a majority of the "I pledge Allegiance to the Flag of the companies.

What We Think About Our Youth In the last issue of the Vestnik, we promised to say a few words about the Youth Program that is foremost in our minds in this coming year. There are different angles from which we can look at the work with our Youth. One of them is, that it is very important that each one of our lodges should strive to establish a Youth Department and secondly; to assist them in every way possible. Since this is a new program it should be given our most helpful consideration and every indulgence on our part. There are so many among us who still stick to the conviction that the Youth is not capable or interested enough in the affairs of our brotherhood. We would like to call your attention to the fact that even though there are those. who are not favorable they should at least give this movement a trial and give our Youth an opportunity to prove themselves.

We have always been in favor of turning over part of our work to the younger generation and it has been proved in lodges where they have done this and where there is an active youth department, that it has been to the advantage of these lodges.

We know of so many young people who are eager, willing and able to shoulder some of the. responsibilities and that they would do very well at it. Many lodges have some very active and very well conducted youth departments, Youth Clubs — if you will call them by that name: Fort Worth, Dallas, Waco, Ennis, Houston, San Antonio and Corpus Christi and some other places who are conducting themselves in such a way that we can be proud of them.

They have elected their own officers, they have their reporters and they are really "in business" for themselves and for their Mother Lodges. Why not give them all the encouragement that we can? Why not spend some of our money that we have in our Lodges to further their cause? They will repay us in the long run and we will not suffer through their neglect.

A shining example of what our young people can accomplish is the Baseball Club of the Dallas Lodge No. 84, under the guidance and leadership of our Bro. Ben Jarma who is at the same time a successful Organizer in his Third District.

Not very long ago, this Youth Club of Lodge 84, presented on different occas-

Vt ST I•1

® WEST, TEXAS

ions the National Beseda Dance to an appreciative audience and has earned favorable comment. We are thankful for this Lodge, with its Youth Club.

Our Youth at Waco, Lodge No. 66, have also appeared on many song and dance recitals which were enjoyed by a very receptive audience. Their recent Christmas Party was another example of their success and was enjoyed by the children, and membership as well as out-oftown guests. This Waco Lodge with its Youth Leader, Sister Parma held a contest of letter writing in which the Youth of all ages participated. This Waco Lodge has also instituted regular programs for their Youth. and Dances weekly, that are chaperoned, has proven very popular with the younger set. It should be remembered that this Lodge, not very long ago, was ready to disband. Since there was no activity and the membership was mostly aged, but with the help of some of the progressive younger members, and some of the newly gained members, this lodge has bought acreage at Elm Mott and built a beautiful Lodge Home of their own and not very long ago adding to this building and still needing more room for all of their successful lodge activities. The Youth of this Lodge is a big factor in these accomplishments and we would like to call your attention to the fact, that any lodge of our order who will pay some atention to their youth will not fail but will succeed as these young folks, guided by their elders, with understanding and love, will become a deciding factor in the up-building of our lodges and our brotherhood.

Not long ago we saw the Youth of Ennis present the National Dances of Czechoslovakia and their performance was enthusiastically accepted. At the District III Youth Day in Ennis, there was an elaborate program rendered by the youth of Dallas, both Ennis Lodges, and the Waco Lodge, with the different talent contests as well as Handicraft Contests, where they performed at a high professional level.

Then there is the Corpus Christi Lodge where an active Youth Club is in existence. In Bell County our Sister Clara Hejl is in charge of a very promising Youth Club, and our Sister Lillie Matejka in District I, has also shown promise with her Youth and lots of talent.

Lodge No. 88 Houston, also has an active Youth Department and we are sure that in this new year they will become very active and properly organized so that they may have their own Youth Club officers at this ever-growing Lodge 88.

Wednesday, January 14,, 1959 At San Antonio there Is another active Youth Club with an agressive roster of officers clamoring for a Lodge Hall.

They are under the leadership of sister Marcella Kleperlik and. if you are interested or live close by, make it a point to attend one of their Youth Club Meetings and join this promising Youth Club of Lodge 133.

We also would like to mention the Fort Worth Youth Club of Lodge 92 which has represented itself very favorably at their last Christmas Party and they are always helpful when called upon, striving to be. useful to our fraternity and to the Mother Lodge. They have elected a promising set of officers and have a very good program outlined for 1959.

Two of the Youth Clubs very recently held their Queen Contests with the Coronations which were covered in detail in the Vestnik and presented enviable new insurance to the Mother Lodge.

From all of this review we have given you, you can judge that this is a fruitful endeavor of our brotherhood and you should make it a point to join in with us so that your lodge may become a member of this progressive youth movement.

All of our Youth Directors in all of the Seven Districts, are ready to give information to any Lodge that may request on the organization of Youth Clubs and in this case you just write to them directly or to the Vice-President of our Supreme. Lorge, Brother Joe B. Hejny, and you will receive prompt and courteous replies. You will find the address of our Youth LeaderS in each District in our Vestnik roster and please do not hesitate to call on them.

You may ask what is this Youth? They persons who are going to carry on what we have started in 1897. They are going to sit here with us and attend to those things that they think important when we are gone. We may adopt all of the policies we please, but how will they be carried out, if we do not depend upon our Youth. Even if we make treaties or policies they will have to manage them.

They are going to sit a t our places in the Senate, occupy our places in Court, they will assume control of our cities, of our state and our nation. They are going to move in and take over our Lodges, clubs, banks, our prisons and churches, our schools, our universities and corporations. All of our work is going to be judged, praised or condemned by them. Your reputation and mine and your future are in their hands. All of your work, my work, is for them! Re-

Wednesday, January 14, 1959 member that the fate of our nation and of all humanity is in their:hands. So, we may as well pay some attention to them NOW while we are able to guide them along.

Our Brother Joe B. Hejny, Vice-Presiden of the Supreme Lodge who is an authority in our Youth program can advise you whenever called upon, regarding any phase of this youth movement.

His address is easily remembered: Care of Post Office Box 400, Temple, Texas, and I arr, sure he will honor you with a prompt reply.

Success to you, Your Editor ) • 4,

Dear Friends In the last issue of the Vestnik, our brother District Director and Organizer, J. M. Skrabanek in behalf of his Fifth District expresses his sincerest best wishes and admiration to all the organizers of the Third District to their successful Winning of the Contest between the two Districts.

His words of praise are sincere and well chosen and this proves again that our brother Skrabanek "win or lose" is a good sport, and we all thank him for his genuinely brotherly attitude.

Book Review " The Real Tolstoy"

By Dr. Eduard Mieek Published by Czech Literary Society Box 7555, University Station Austin 12, Texas Price $2.00 Count Leo Tolstoy is usually described as a "novelist and social reformer," but he was in reality more than that. The author of this book notes that Count Tolstoy was also a great spiritual leader and "not merely the conscience of Russia but the conscience of the civilized world of his time."

Tolstoy firmly believed that the Sermon on the Mount is always the supreme law for the leading of a Christian life, and he wrote a great many works in which his social and religious views are clearly set forth. Because many of his theological ideas differed radically from those of the clergy, he was excommunicated in 1901 from the Russian Orthodox Church.

Serving during the Crimean War in defense of Sevastopol in 1854 led him to write on this theme shortly after the end of the conflict. He continued to write from that time until about 1900.

His best known works are "War and Peace," "Anna Karenina," and "Resurection." It was the first named of these that indicated his •knowledge of the love for Freemasonry. It is the opinion of many who have studied this monumental novel that he was an active member of the Craft in Russia before its suppression there.

This book is the outgrowth of a protracted study of what Tolstoy wrote before his death in 1910 and of the personal impressions obtained by Dr. Micek when he visited as a college student in 1909. It is divided into twelve chapters, each treating of some specific aspect of Tolstoy's life — its background, his views and his relationships with the literary and intellectually influential people of his day. He was, of course, a member of the ruling aristocracy in his country and hence found it comparatively easy to portray it fairly accurately.

The author's personal acquaintance with Tolstoy and his long study of what this great Russian produced has been the basis of many written articles and lectures in several languages. Doctor IvBeek is professor of Slovanic Languages at the University of Texas and has written this enlightening book in anticipation of the fiftieth anniversary of Tolstoy's death.

Dallas, Texas Dear Brothers and Sisters, The "Six Fat Dutchemen" from New Ulm, Minnestota, nations No. 1 Polka Band in 1958 will be making a tour through Texas starting the week of January 19th. They will play a one night engagement at our Lodge hall an Thursday night, January 22, 1959 from 8 to 12 p. m. Admission will be $1.50 per person or 3.00 a couple. We are indeed fortunate in having them play for us and we feel it will be a wonderful opportunity for all our members and friends in the vicinity, of Dallas, Forth Worth and other outlying districts to enjoy dancing and listening to this wonderful orchestra.

They are really good and we hope that everyone can attend this dance. We know you will thoroughly enjoy their music and arrangements.

They will play in Houston Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday and I believe Tuesday they will play in Ennis, Texas.

So try and come out to our dance on Thursday Night, January 22, 1958 at Lodge Pokrok 84 Dallas, 2625 Floyd St. and dance to the tunes of the "Six Fat Dutchemen" orchestra from New Ulm, Minnesota.

On Saturday Night, January 17, we will have our regular dance and the popular Faraizl's orchestra from Ft. Worth, Texas will be playing your favorite polkas and waltzes. Then Sunday, January 18 being the third Sunday of the month, is our regular monthly lodge meeting.

The meeting will start at 4:00 p. m. We hope everyone will come out and see how we progressed this past year and what lies in store for us this coming year. So many times members mean well and really plan to attend the meeting, but something always comes up and we just forget, but just this time, try to remember this date and be present at the meeting and Family Night Get-together right after the meeting. There will be food availble in the kitchen and after supper, we will start the games promptly at 7:00 o'clock.

We also have a door prize as usual for our Family night games and someone might be real lucky this time. We will be looking for you, so be there if you can.

This is your chance to show your new Entertainment Committee for 1959 that you are all willing to lend them your full support for this coming year.

West, Texas Dear Girls: It used to burn me up when some gal in the paper tried to advise mothers how to run the house, train the children and angle hubby to take her dancing in the evening, looking like a model out of a fashion plate, for try as I could it never worked for me. Not that I considered her smarter, but things just didn't fall in line for me as she had them on paper. By the end of the day I was glad to hit the bed. I often wondered if she really had a family or did she just have an apartment with a dog in it, trying to advise her married sisters how it should, be done.

the paper fell from his hands.

We never heard of baby sitters. If there was a lodge dance, the whole family went. Mothers took the wee ones with them, to bed in the Women's °tinge, in baby bin!:eies or even parked ,heal on comforters under the benches upon which they sat around our lodge hall, enjoyed the visiting with friends and neighbors, occasionally taking a spin around the hall with her man.

Anyway, it is interesting to note that the advances in the science of running the modern home and family life and the thinking of today's mistress of the house, so, I gave you herewith, one gal's views for whatever you can get out of them. She has some good points that some of you can just incorporate into your home management routine. If you can keep up her schedule, my hat off to you, you're some gal!

She advises to take it easy, that housework can be effortless if you plan it correctly. It in the mental approach as much os in the right method of work, she continues. The same qualities of thought which assure ease of 'accomplishment in other departments of life apply to household chores.

Her family, she says, is a typical one; two children and a clog! There are all the usual demands to be met in maintaining a home and this gal has a job, as well. Although her job requires a great deal of time, she can do it at home if she follows this plan she has worked out.

For example: let's take a typical day and see how quickly and easily the housework can be done. To do this efficiently, means to start the night before. The table is set, everything is ready for breakfast except the actual food preparation.

The children's books are ready at the 1-2, p c,k !-'con homework papers intact, pencies sharpened, lunch money ready, shoes polished, and gloves found. Then they grab their belongings as they leave the house for school bus, without the last-minute hurry and confusion. Nice?

Before you go to bed, she advises, yesterday's newspaper is removed from the living room, sofa pillows are pumped up, A few minutes to put the house in order at the end of the day saves much rushing about in the busy morning hours.

An early start is a must for a smoothrunning household. No one dislikes an alarm clock more than she, yet, an unlimo! ied start on the day makes for harmony instead of friction. Six-fifteen is her reveille; they breakfast at seven and at 7:30 the children are enroute to the school bus, after having tidied

Wednesday, January 14, 1959 their rooms. (My, what nice children) Here too, the training of the children to hang up their clothes at night, put laundry in the hamper, and be ready at bedtime to move fast in the morning, helps tremendously.

From 7:30 to 8:30 she goes quickly about her daily routine for an hour's morning uninterrupted house chores.

This goes on for six days a week. It is the daily keeping up with things that makes the work so easy, she continues.

Nothing piles up, nothing is "undone" and decr4anding attention. She keeps a mop for bedroom floors, a sponge-rubber broom for the bathroom floors, a duster and a nearly dry cellulose sponge — and she's on her way. It helps a lot to move quickly in a light- hearted frame of mind. It takes the "drag' and "drugery" of our work to see hov quickly one can breeze through it.

Her house has three bedrooms to tidy.

Her children hang up after themselves.

After making the beds, the floors are moped, furniture tops dusted and the window sills and mullions wiped off with the cellulose sponge. This takes only a minimum of time.

Then she tackles the bathrooms. She has two. Keeping cleanser and brushes in each one saves her carting necessary equipment with her. On her way back t o the kitchen, she give the living room and study the "once over lightly" and then she works on her kitchen.

Breakfast dishes are rinsed and left to soak in a dishpan of hot suds. They don't have a dishwasher as yet. These are later given a quick rinse and put in a drainer. In very hot water and she uses rubber gloves, then washes and and rinses glasses and silverware which dries perfectly without the benefit of towels. A note for milkman under the door — and by 9 o'clock he sits down to her job.

She works for three to five hours in quietness undisturbed.

Some families find it easier to put the laundry through every day (that is, if one owns an automatic washer).

Instead, she does hers three times a week. She considers the automatic drier the most important piece of equipment because of the time is saves. The clothes go through the washer, are popped into the dryer and are ready to go back into the closets and bureau drawers, saving a maximum of ironing.

She believes that the biggest help in her schedule is doing two loads of washing of clothes, late in the day either Saturday or Sunday: a white load and a colored, load; and while watching the TV or reading ,the clothes are washed or dried. Monday starts the week off

Wednesday, January 14, 1959 with no accumulated chores or duties and the children's clothes are all in place ready for their school week. Her theme is: "Do it now, or do it ahead of time, but above all else, keep current.

"What an automat"!

Of course, the ever-recurring vacuuming and ironing must be done, too. Each one should have a pattern or schedule, a regular one but not a rigid one. Flexibility is necessary to adjust to different plans as they develop. She irons Monday afternoons to enable her to have an empty basket rather than an overflowing one looking at her all week.

With no-iron cottons now for Trien's and boy's shirts and girl's blouses, this work takes a minimum of time.

Vacuuming is done Friday afternoons, just because that happens to suit her best. The house is kept reasonably clean with her daily routine, so once-a-week vacuuming is ample.

Some of the "odds and ends departments" are taken care of by the children. Each child is responsible for keeping his own room neat. Failure to do this means a reduction in his allowance.

Both children are eager to save their money, so this threat of reduction in income keeps them in line.

One daughter, 15. keeps the piano dusted, chair rungs dusted (a job that takes too much of mother's time) and she also polishes the family silver.

One son, 13, keeps the car washed, the garage and cellar swept and orderly.

These chores are done on Saturdays, so as not to interfere with any other jobs.

Cooking is something of an acquired art with this homemaker, she says, but one that she enjoys. Their meals are varied but not fancy, and she gives her pattern that she worked out for planning a week's menus ahead were always impossible for her. She found it far easier to get plenty of supplies each Friday and then use them as the occasion demanded. Everytime she planned a meal for four, she says, one or both of her children brought guests home, or they in turn stayed away from home as guests.

On , the kitchen bulletin board is a list of about ten salads, and a dozen or more vegetables to choose from for dinner each night. With. careful planning and avoiding any really elaborate dishes, it is seldom necessary for her to go into her kitchen before 5 o'clock to prepare their dinner.

All the short cuts possible are used in the kitchen: a pressure cooker: paper towels or cleaning and wiping-up; wax paper for peeling fruits, yegetables, or flouring meat; and foil to line pans

V tETNfK -- WEST, TEXAS for broiling. Using these generously really cuts down time and work. After dinner, a once-over ( lightly with a nylon broom leaves the kitchen clean and ready for the morning meal The trite slogan "A place for everything and everything in its place" and "Do it now" have become her mottoes.

Work patiently and persistently to get the whole family to cooperate, putting clothes in the closet, boots and rubbers put away, mittens and gloves where they belong. All of this means ease instead of effort, harmony instead of confusion and efficiency instead of friction, She reassured.

One more idea is offered to simplified household work: shoe boxes. In shoe boxes they collect from the local stores who are delighted to get rid of them, this family stacks them in the garage and tags them. Scarves, socks, ribbons, gloves, puppets, morel cars, fish ing, camera tuff, camp materials, belts, patterns, shoulder pads, pieces of string, paint brushes and on and on. In this order, it helps her family to find things in a hurry and it is "the spot" to put many miscellaneous items that accundulate in every family. Each member in the family, also, has one box marked "junk" for personal miscellanii.

There it is and it is guaranteed to bring results, we are assured. It is easy, effortless simplification of househould chores that really. Just remember that all of this is Daily!

I sincerely hope that this though provoking housework principle will give you some idea that might work in your family and help make your homemaking chores easier and "gnceover-light."

The last meeting of our teenage club which was held Oecember 14 was perhaps the most important meeting of the entire year, For it was at that meeting that many teenagers met to elect officers which they thought the most capable in leading their club through the new year.

As pre7;iously stated many teenagers were present; however, the attendance would have been sr f grater if all the members would have attended. Let's try to remedy this situation in the future by ha ying 1O per cent attendance at all meetings.

When all necessary business had been taken care of in the meetin g, the teenagers went immediately into the elections. As the votes were being counted those attending, as well as the candidates themselves, became very curious and a -.Kiwis to know just who the new officers would he. Finally, the votes were tabulated and ended in the following results: JOE ONDRUSEK President — Richard Sykora Vice-President Vice President -- Joe Ondrusek

The Teen-Age Club as a whole wishes to congratulate at this time the new officers of our Mother' Lodge. Our best to you in "59".

We would also like to thank Mrs. Bessie Petr, our Youth Director, for her deeply appreciated help and advise in the past year. With Mrs. Petr working at our side once again, we are sure to have a prosperous and progressive year.

We sincerely hope that we will deem our selves worthy of having such a marvelous youth director for our teen-age club. To us Mrs. Petr is "TOPS." May God bless you and keep you safe and healthy throughout the new year.

With much thanks, I remain, Sincerely yours, Jerry Ann Urban Reporter Secretary V,

For assistance I called on the teen agers of Lodge Pokrok Dallas No. 84 to help me out,. Under the supervision of their Youth Director, Sister Bessie Petr, the Teenagers gave an hour long Christmas program that is still the topic of conversation around Sears today. The Teenagers choral club, under the direction of yours truly performed wonderfully. Also present were five little "Angels" that provided colorful atmosphere for the gala occasion. The Adamcik sisters also gave a splendid performance on their accordion, dressed in their native "Costumes". After a superb performance the choir retired to the dressing room to change into their beseda costumes or (kroj) while yours

Strana 25 truly gave a history of the SPJST, its functions and its meaning (also acting as master of ceremonies no need to mention that the "beseda" danced by our teenagers was an outstanding part of the Gala Christmas Party. It was performed mangificiently. After our performance, we were to attend a buffet luncheon provided by Sears Roebuck and Company for its partyj with baked turkeys, hams and many good things.

Being a fast day, we all enjoyed a varied assortment of tuna salad, potato salad, cheeses, etc. — However we all had a wonderful time. The Sears Christmas party was attended by much of management personel of the warehouse group where the party was held. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the teenagers of Lodge Pokrok Dallas No. 84, each one personally for their wonderful contribution toward this occasion. We of the SPJST can be proud of our teenagers as young representatives of our organization in the social world. Their behavior and performance wa sbeyond reproach. I am also grateful to the little "Angels" that performed so wonderfully, and to the several mothers that were on hand to help the girls change. They all deserves a world of praise. Aagain I want to thank each one of you for a job well done; we of the SPJST Lodge No. 84 Salute each one of you for your outstanding contribution in your own field' of entertainment.

This year all the adults were waiting to see who "Santa's helper was. To their astonishment when Santa walked in, none of the adults could figure out who this year's "Santa's helper" was. All the wives looked to see if he was their husband. But no, the puzzled husbands were looking to see if one of their friends was missing. But again, all were accounted for. Who was

Strana 26 qSan'Oa's helper"? The thought then came to the adults that .maybe this really was the real Banta Claus; at least at this stage everyone was wondering about it. The final proof that this was the real Santa came when he started to talk about some of the people present. Oh, what he knew about some people! In a personal interview with Santa Claus, he said that the only reason he came down from the North Pole was because of the kind, personal invitation from Mrs. Bessie Petr, the Youth Club and Teenage Division leader. Santa then had to go back to the North Pole to finish some work be!ore Christmas. We all would like to thank Santa Claus for coming and hope that he can cone to our program again next year.

One of the best that I have found, both from the standpoint of ease of operation and from the standpoint of results is the Weems. I can produce the distress cry more realistically and with less effort with this call than any other that I have tried. The call is made very substantially of wood, and several months of blowing the little gem hasn't altered the tone in any respect. I carry my distress cry on a leather throng about my neck, and several months of hard use apparently has not affected it in the least.

The relative merits of the various varmint cartridges has been the subject of a great deal of discussion. One of the best medium range cartridges is the .222 Remington, and one of the finest guns for this case that I have ever fired is the new Model 322 Marlin.

This little gun is built around the Sako Mauser action and features Marlin's Microgroove barrel. Mine consistently shoots into an inch at one hun dred yards( five shot groups), and is one of the best handling little guns on my rack. I have shot many small +varmints such as ground squirrels and loggerhead shrikes with this gun and my Stith 6x scope, and I find it to be very dependable and accurate.

• Editor: I believe there is no excuse for any hunter to kill a spike buck by mistake, during the deer season.

The hunter who cannot wait and look for those extra points is the type who endangers the lives of other hunters.

I have killed a few deer in my time, and I hunt with men who killed their

Strana 28 first buck some 40 or 50 years ago. The men on our lease don't find it difficult to pass up a spike buck — and we have let a number of good btIcks walk away because we could not get a good look at the antlers until they turned to leave.

I don't think we need a law to allow the killing of spike bucks. I think more !money should be appropriated to the Game and Fish Commission to enable it to expand and to hire more game wardens to catch and prosecute game law violators.

Hunting is a wonderful sport. Let's keep it that way.

Dan K. Humble CorpuS Christi, Texas * Editor: I have given a great deal of thought to the protection of game, particularly from the side of the small landowner, for I am one of them.

Among small country landowners, the city hunter gets most of the "cussin" and because of the actions of many of them, probably are due their share. But they are not nearly as destructive as the sneak poacher who is your neighbor down the road. He is in a position to check your movements and when you have to leave ho.r4e, he swarms all over your place, killing your game without regard to game laws, your personal rights or even human decency.

We have trespass laws, sure, but about all posting does on a small place is to keep decent hunters out and provide better hunting for your poaching neighbors.

The point I would like to make is that we need more wardens. I noted a letter recently urging more wardens and I certainly agree this would be of great help to the small landowners who harbor most of the game.

To help finance it, I think the law should require every hunter to buy a license, even if he hunts in his home county. After all the local hunter is the one who takes the greatest amount of game in a given area. This might add another warden to each county..

Another law that would be of great help would be one requiring hunters to get 'daily hunting permits from land owners. This one also would be particularly helpful to the small landowner seeking to protect game from the poaching of local hunters, for the warden would have solriething. solid on which to base charges. And why should any valid hunter object to going to the owner and obtaining a written permit if the land is worth hunting on?

Austin — A re-assignment of game wardens in the Galveston area has been announced by the director of law enforcement of the Game and Fish Commission. Under the new set-up there will be a warden stationed at Galveston, Larmarque, League City, two at High Island, two at Anahuac, three in Houston, one at Pearl and one at Liberty.

Two new fast boats also have been added to the Galveston area equipment.

They are known as fast, shallow drift boats for working in the coastal waters.

With this new assignment the director hopes to give better enforcement thru a more thorough check of both corninercial and sports fishing.

• • Austin — Game and Fish Commission activities were put under the microscope this year, according to' an article appearing in the December Texas Game and Fish. An interim study committee will present a report of its surveys to the Fifty-sixth Legislature.

Close study was given all phases of fishing. The study included everything from .coast shrimp and oyster fishery to freshwater rough fish eradication.

Also important to health as well as wildlife is the pollution problem. With cooperation from private industry and municipalities the committee sees hope in ending this threat to marine life.

Better waterfowl management and hunting was the object of a trip to Illinois. The committee saw, first hand, that state's system and brought it back in time for a "test hunt" on the Big Hill Management Area.

A movie of the comn-fittee's activities was prepared by the Commission to be shown to the Legislature for a clearer understanding of Texas' game and fish situation.

This property was purchased under the Pixian-Robertson program Which provides 75 per cent federal aid both in the acquisition and developments of the area.

Although the land is used principally for management purposes, controlled hunting of game surpluses has been permitted on the area during the TransPecos open season, since 1955. persons who are allowed to hunt are selected through a public drawing in Austin each October.
