Sports Column

DALLAS, TEXAS OTTO L. HOSEK One of the most beautiful gun clubs in the nation will have its formal opening near Huston Jan. 24-25.

The Greater Houston Gun Club, developed as a nonprofit organization by a prominent group of Houston hunters and competitive shooters, will be open to the public on those days at no charge.

Featuring five skeet fields, and five trap • fields, the spacious club grounds also include an ultramodern, masonry clubhouse with luxurious carpeted interiors, air conditioning, a large game room, private club upstairs for members and snack bar downstairs for shooters.

The location is a few miles south of Houston city limits just off Farm Road 2234.

• Largest Deer — The largest (authenticated) deer killed during the past season in South Texas was brought in by Lonnie Johnson of Holland. The buck weighed 1811/2 pounds, 10-points and 22 inch spread. It as killed with a .250-3000 Savage while Johnson was hunting in Duval County. The deer won the annual San Antonio Express-News award for the largest deer killed in South Texas.

Bohumir Pustejovsky, who willed the first deer of the season in the Hallettsville area, got his second buck on the last day of the season. He killed an 8point buck on the Pustejovsky place at Vienna.

Editor: I ,have seen and killed many rattlers that were over six feet in length, laid out on the ground and not stretched at all.

T. A. Duderstadt recently willed a rattler on his, ranch south of Honclo in Medina county, which measured over seven feet, six inches in length and was as large around as a stovepipe.

V ESTNIK — WEST, TEXAS I killed at least twelve rattlers on this ranch in one year that measured a. good six feet or more.

E. F. Duderstadt Leakey, Texas

Last year's harvest of wildlife resources in Texas was the greatest in the memory of many old-timers.

Thanks to good wildlife management, areas that were "shot out" 25 years ago had top hunting in 1958. The woods were full of deer. Quail were more numerous perhaps than ever before in Texas. And the duck and goose population from Canada was very good.

This all gets back to management.

Naturally it had to start with control.

Limits had to be put on the bag, the seasons had to be set. All of this, however, would not have been of any value without land management.

We have in Texas a rather paradoxical situation. The game belongs to the people — you and everyone else. The I land on which it lives, for the most part belongs to the individual landowner.

There is very little public domain in Texas, and it also falls under controls.

Every Texas landowner is interested in having some wildlife resources on his hand. Most landowners like to hunt and fish a little. But it doesn't take too much to satisfy them.

Hunters must remember that farmers and ranchers have to grow crops or raise cattle to make a living. They build fences to keep their livestock in and to keep people out. Occasionally some poachers will kill game that belongs to one landowner, but has taken up residence on another man's private property As a result the poacher finds himself confronted with the justice of the peace, who slaps a fine on him usually amounting to some $40.

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK Life Insurance In The Watch Your I, Prospects will tell you that many World of the life underwriters who call on them have little manerisms that annoy and irritate. Such habits are usually trivial, so much so that the salesman may never be aware of them. Yet they frequently mean the difference between a cordial welcome and a negative attitude -- a "yes" or a "no" when it comes time to ask for the order.

For instance, there is the salesman who has ,a loud and penetrating voice.

He may not realize that he is talking in tones which can be heard throughout a place of business, but prospects usually resent having business conservations broadcast to others. Besides, lower tones ;are more agreeable and convencing.

They find a kindred fault in the salesman who persists in edging close and talking directly into the listener's face.

The salesman may or may not have halitosis; but, at any rate, few such like to carry on a conservation at uncomfortably close range.

Smoking is a common habit. Some business firms, however, have rules against smoking in offices, stores, or plants. And some prospects don't like to talk to a salesman through a smoke screen. It is always advisable to look for "No Smoking" signs and ask permission before lighting up a cigarette or pipe.

Among the pet peeves of prospects is the habit some salesmen have of reading business forms or correspondence which happen to be lying on a desk or counter.

An astonishing number of salesmen do this unconsciously. Their eyes fall on the the papers; and while they are waiting they began to read instinctively. This habit is easily detected, even when the salesman is reading upside down; and it is almost invariably resented.

Over-farmdliarity is another habit which gets salesmen into trouble. First names are used more freely than they used to be, particularly in the west. Some

Ownership of life insurance continues to grow throughout the world. Figures available from 32 countries show that in all except three, substantial gains were made in the year, the increases in insurance outstanding ranging from 4 per cent to 35 per cent.

Over a longer period, the percentage gains are even larger, but in many countries the increases reflect inflationary trends of the war and post-war period.

TO ALL DISTRICT THREE ORGANIZERS Dear Fellow Workers: CONGRATULATIONS! Yes, congratulations to yOu organizers, officers and members of District No. 3 for being in number one spot for the high honor of winning both of the traveling trophies for writing the greatest amount of insurance and securing the greatest number of new members.

Even though we fell short of our goal for 1958, I feel sure the Achievement of your fellow workers will inspire encouragement to all other Districts.

It is such cooperation as you have given to Brother A. M. Vrla, your District Organizer, and myself throughout the year, that makes our job a more pleasant one.

You wrote insurance in the amount of $585,500.00 and 465 new members in 1958. I know this took a lot of work and extra effort on your part. I am sure that each of you contributed according to your capacity, and I want you to know your efforts are appreciated very much.

May we start the New Year with renewed retermination to exceed our sales of 1958 and to reach our 1959 quota.

I firmly believe that you will in a lot of inforlaation and new ideas Ithrough this school, which in turn will give us more qualified representatives in the field, which of course, will mean more sales for you: and more members for the SPJST. The Insurance Committee recommended and the Suprethe Lodge adopted a ruling that when any organizer WIs to write at least $5,000 of insurance in one calendar year, that he or she will automatically forfeit his or her contract with the SPJST and they will be replaced by some other organizer.

Pa brothers and sisters, let's all start out writing insurance right at the beginning of the year so we can go on record that there were no contracts terminated in 1959.

Reports From Local Lodges

LODGE 48, TAYLOR, TEXAS Dear Readers, This being the 11th day of January I would like to report that all the officers and committees of Lodge Vysehrad No. 48 have been elected or appointed and this is the first time in many years, we can start with a full force.

I'm sure this will be a somewhat belated report. Our thanks to all who had anything to do with our Christmas program. Even though the weather was near the freezing mark, our crowd was beyond our expectation. The members who were responsible for this program will probably go down in the lodge history, praised for a job they had to do, but in the hearts of our children this will remain a night never to be forgotten. These small boys and girls who made mistakes galore, are our future officers of SPJST and leaders of our great country.

In our meeting today , last year was termed a. great success. Our aim and goal for the new year is great. The fullfilment of these dreams depend on you and I .

Be at the next meeting, this is where the business and hope begins.

As you all know, we did not reach our • goal last year, therefore, it is our aim during the year ahead to improve our membership record and sell more insurance. Some of our organizers have started already the first day of January, and I hope that everyone will try his best to have a nice record. Let's everybody start to work, and what I think is very important, no stone should be left unturned in our determination to reach our quota this year, and to make each and every member a good SPJST member, fully resolved to stand firmly together in the promotion of our common interests.

All of the members are asked to the next meeting to vote on the by-laws for the coming year.

You may have some excellent ideas so come to the meeting and voice your ideas for the betterment of our lodge.

The bonds of our officers were inspected and the officers were installed in a brief ceremony, for the other business of the last meeting.

Our Christmas party turned out real well. Sister Clara Hejl and the children put on an excellent program. Special thanks to Sister Hejl and the children, who took part in the program. Thanks also to the sisters who brought an abundance of god food for the refreshment table. Thanks also to Santa Claus for his visit among the youngsters. I hope he brought each of you what you wanted.

I hope this New Year brings each of you health, wealth and happiness, I also hope our lodge and the Supreme lodge will prosper during the year.

Remember the regular lodge meeting on February 1st. Hope to see you all there.

Dear Girls: One young and handsome movie find was asked his views of what constitutes a lovely, woman; and more specifically what does a man see in the woman he plans to marry.

It was interesting to note that the first thing that popped into his mind was the rhyme that little girls were made of "Sugar and Spice and everything nice," which he likened to "His Woman."

Girls should be sweet, but not by sweetness per se, that they should eat a lot of sugar, for sugar does not tend to make woman's figure "devine" but sweetness such as: kindliness especially to children, to husbands and to man's best friend, the dog, gentleness, serenity (the love for order and quietness) and the ability to see both sides of the question: that kind of sweetness.

As for the "Spice" ah, that is especially important for , it implies dash, flair and zest. She must have a sense of humor (especially with her husband, his flat jokes, etc.) and she needs a vast store of energy to run his castle, and wit

to entertain him, and with nostalgia he says — "she needs to be lovely when her husband gets home in the evening from his work." In fact this handsome movie Romeo stated that too many wives forgot how they looked the day they were married -- but their husbands never do.

Once again the seed catalogues have started coming in. Their colored photographs lure us to many hours of browsing in their pages and planning to transplant some of that beauty shown into our flower beds and vegetable gardens — come spring.

For a bountiful crop of flowers or vegetables this spring soil tilth • ,nd fertility are the two most important hings o remember in conditioning your soil for future planting. With the snow and freezing weather that Texas has recently had, the insect population will decrease and the soil will become, tilth. When one stops to think that ther-.i ara five million living organisms in a teaspoonful of your garden soil, it is to your advantage to keep them there actively working for you to condition the soil and making it possible for tiny roots to search out unt:i.ents in a light, and porous soil. Soil that is hard packed has poor tilth while soil that is puffy and porous like grandma's bread rising on the back of the stove in the breadpans, make fcr a prolific garden. Naturally, using your soil without ever returning some of the nutrients finally lessens the productivity of the soil which becomes more packed with each crop and harder to work.

Scinetists claim that most of us over cultivate our gardens. The addition of organic matter in the form of barnyard manure compost, or green manure crops adds to the tilth and also feeds the friendly bacteria which bread down the organic matter for tilth.

There is some new thinking among farmers, especially those on light soils and among some dirt gardners, that shallow plowing of the top eight inches and planting legumes for turning under as mulch and green manure, saying the legume roots should not be disturbed and that their rotting down will aerate the soil to water level depths which the crop roots find. In the garden, spading and plowing or weeding in the fall after the first killing frost and hay, leaves or straw or other available material is put on the garden plot as cover up to eight inches in thickness. In the spring this packed down mulch is pulled back and seeds are sown in rows. After the plants are up, the mulch is tucked back around the roots after the way Mother Nature does in the woods. After harvest, the soil is" turned. Mulches on the sour

side are good for grapes, berries, azeleas, apple trees and evergreens and include sawdust, oak leaves and peat moss. Mulches on the sweet side are good for lettuce, cabbage, broccoli, celery, brussels sprouts, squash, pumpkin and all leafy green vegetables and include mulches from alfalfa, peavines, vetch and green lawn clippings.

Neutral mulches such as straw, leaves brush clippings, pine needles, and dead weeds can be used on tomatoes and all root vegetables. Ground corn cobs are good for rose bushes, shrubbery and trees. I remember my mother used to say that wood ashes added to the soil not only add potash but sweeten the soil where it was sour. Coming from a long line of Czechoslovakian farmers, she incorporated these inherited practices in her beds which rivaled the best.

Good soil needs three essential eleinents: nitrogen, phosphrous and potash, which can be added to your soil in commercial fertilizers or the old fashioned way via the barnyard. In a commercial fertilizer the primary nutrients are always listed in the order of their percentage on the container or bag. A 16-20label means it contains 16 per cent nitrogen, 20 per cent phosphorous and no potash.

A ton of cow manure is equivalent to 100 pounds of 10-5-10 plus its valuable organic matter.

Fertilizers bought in 80 pound farm bags cost about a third as much as the five or ten pound garden sizes.

So girls, have hubby pull out the manure spreader and clean out the barn lot and you'll have flowers that will win Flower Show prizes.

For those of you who have to purchase your miracle fertilizers, a rule of thumb is that if it costs you $2 to fertilize a thousand square feet, then it's no miracle.

The dwarf size fruit trees are becoming ever more plentiful in the nurseries and the small city lot or garden plot should tuck two of them in somewhere. A box Red Bartlet pear is twice as sweet from your own tree as from your grocer's fruit box. Try it .

January is the last chance to plan a Valentine Party in your ledge for the Youth. Valentine comes on February 14th, a Saturday, so do plan a party for young and old in your lodge. Have it after your lodge meeting and have fun.

Don't forget it will be a fine opportunity to get together during the usually pleasant weather in February.

We attended our Lodge 92 Meeting in Ft. Worth, last Sunday and had a fine time. It is always a real pleasure to come "home." May 1959 find you all busy as

Mostly collection and refreshirsents was the order: of the day. We did learn one thing — we need to do some work on the hall to make it more weather tight. Any volunteers? Also before the April District Meeting serveral odd jobs need attending to. If you have any spare time and would like to help, contact Charlie Novosad.

It has been brought to the attention of the Entertainment Committee that we should have a dance before Lent starts. Such a dance has been planned and the exact date will be published soon. So plan to attend. Anyone who would like to help out in the kitchen please let me know, we would certainly appreciate it. Don't forget watch for the dance date — until then Your reporter, Betty Novosad ) • 4 • LODGE 29, TAYLOR, TEXAS Dear Readers Well, another year has rolled by and Lodge Praha No. 29 held its first regular meeting Sunday, at 2:00 p.m. with the installation of officers. All but one of the officers were present and we couldn't blame Brother W. H. Glover for not being present at this installation as we understand his wife and her mother Mrs. Frank Lesikar were in Freeport attending the wedding of their grandson and nephew. We sincerely hope they had a very nice time.

Our Lodge President, Brother Rueben Lesikar opened the meeting and his father, Brother Frank Lesikar performed the installation ceremonies, followed by Brother A. L. Boudny's reading the minutes of the last meeting and Brother Frank Hejl, Jr., giving the Home Report, Brother Edwin Kovar giving his Report of the Property Coximittee and Sister Julie Hunka giving us her Report for the Auditing Committee.

We are happy to also report that we didn't lose anyone in our ranks this

month. In fact, we gained four new members. Our thanks goes to our brother Ben 1)/Iikolaj for he is one of our hardest working members and organizers.

It has been decided to hold to celebrations this year. The first one will be our May Fete which will take place the first Sunday in May and the second will be the celebration of our lodge's 60th Anniversary which will take place the third Sunday in July, so, all of you members and friends keep those dates in mind.

We have also finally settled the salaries of the president and vice-president.

We had two nominations: one for $10 for the president and one for $5 for the vice-president every three months, and the other was $18 and $9 respectively every three months. We voted by secret ballot; 21 voting for the $10 — $5 sum and 19 for the $18 — $9 sum for every three months. So you can see, the president and vice-president didn't get much of a raise after all; certainly not enough to cause all the trouble and unpleasantness for they didn't ask for a raise in the first place, but it is all water under the bridge now, so let's just be careful next time.

We also had two visitors at our meeting, Brother August Kacir froiri the Supreme Lodge and his son both of Temple. Brother Kacir made a short 'speech which was enjoyed by all.

Also, we finally got two good sisters interested in becoming Youth Organizers and they took this one month to think it over. I hope to give you a report on it after our next meeting.

After the meeting adjourned our own Sister Kubala was there to brew the coffee this time and it really tasted so good for the weather was on the chilly side that Sunday. We had plenty of sand wiches, cookies and pie to go with that coffee but no kolaches this time. Thank you sisters for the eats.

Christmas conies but once a year, and regardless of the work involved we all like to take advantage of the cheer and obligations connected with it.

It is time for me to bring you up to

Wednesday, January 21, 1959 date regarding the particulars of our annual meeting which was held on December 8th. The election of officers was held at this time and I know you will be interested to know the results, however, very few changes were made.

Brother Rudy Sefcik asked to be excused from the office of the director for the year 1959 as his business obligations demanded more of his time. We can all understand this. However, he did a wonderful piece of work as director in the past and we are certainly grateful to him.

Brother Stephan Valcik succeeded Brother Sefcik as director, and we feel that his enthusiasm will be an asset to the organization. He has been connected with the club for years and his interest to minute details is, indeed, a credit to im.

Sister Frances Olexa will continue to fill the duties of the secretary. And here again, may I say that she has served well and willingly, and her kind attitude in the matters of the club is to be appreciated.

Brother Tim Kostom was re-elected to serve as President while your friend picking on this typewriter will continue to report hte affairs of the club for another year.

While it has been a trying matter to select and cast plays the club agreed' to renew its efforts toward a far more interesting plan and program for the netertainment during the coming year.

During his meeting the debatable question concerning the progarm for the coming year seemed to' be settled and agreed upon after what appeared to be a hopeless mission where another play was concerned, Brother Valcik, our new director, won the full support of the members present when he suggested that he intended to use a.n entirely different cast for each play. In this way, less responsibility is likely to fall on one and the salrie cast too often.

It may be of interest to many of you living in the vicinity of Fayetteville to know that sometime within the next few weeks we may present "Obzinky na Vesnici" again, but this time in Fayetteville, and perhaps within another week or two, again in East Bernard. We have been invited to bring this play to you and further announcements will be made through the Vestnik, Rehearsals have been called and we are looking forward to a nice attendance.

You will also want to follow the Vestnik for further announcements to be made concerning a new play which Mr. Valcik is now rehearsing.. This presentation will be at Lodge Pokrok early in

Wedneaday, January 21, 1959 February. We are very happy to have Brother Anton Svcska with us again.

His recent illness and operation managed to slew him down some for a while, however, he is with us again ready to do his part.

I believe it is also fitting at this time to mention the passing of one of our most admirable members. Brother Joseph Anton passed away on December 17 after an illneSs of several months. Very talented and capable in character roles on the stage, many of you will recall his love for the stage and his ability to handle a part to equal that of the very best in Hollywood. Many of us were given our firct opportunities on the stage largely through his encouragement and assistance.

Y01711 CLUB ATTENTION TEEN-AGERS OF LODGE 56, CORPUS CHRISTI Dear Teen-Agers, This letter is in Concern of teen-agers of Lodge 56 Corpus Christi. In the January meeting of the . Youth Club the teen agers were out numbered by such a large number, therefore all the offices were filled by pre-teeners. For you teen-agers there won't be anything to do but listen to the small children hold a meeting.

For entertainment also there hasn't been anything planned for you so far. The entertainment was good for young children but what about the teen-agers? One can not expect teen-agers to look for Easter eggs, play drop the handkerchief, etc.

By organizing a second Youth Club here in Corpus Christi it won't effect the present club because there are a large number of youngsters in the pre-teen age group and these would remain in that club.

The problem was discussed by a group

VESTNiX

WEST, TEXAS

of teen-agers and they decided that this is what they want — a Teen-Age Youth Club so that they can have entertainment suitable for teen-agers.

Also this question was discussed among adults and they also agreed that this should be done to the satisfaction of both groups. If not mistaken it was discussed in a previous meeting that if ever there are enough teen-agers a second club can be organized. I'm in favor of the teen-agers organizing a club and so far two adults have promised to be their leadership.

As I am interested in this matter, I will write a card to each teen-ager. Also the group decided that a member must be 12 years old or Older. Much good, wholesome fun can be had by joining this club.

There will be more information at a later date. Please think this over and just imagine that throughout the year many exciting activities will be planned.

Fraternally yours, Mrs. Betty Jurica ) • o4. • ( LODGE 84, DALLAS Dear Members of the SPJST and Vestnik Readers, On Sunday, Jan. 11 the first meeting of the new year was held by the teenage club of Lodge 84. The attendance was sizable for many members and parents attended. Special guests, also present at the meeting were Supreme Lodge Officer Joe B. Hejny and Mrs. Hejny; Mrs. Arnold Vrla; Mr. Sid Pokladnik, President of Lodge 84; Mr. Ben Jarma, Vice-President of the Dallas Lodge; and Mrs. Willie Ondrusek, Lodge 84 Treasurer. We regret that Mr. Vrla., District 3 Organizer could not be present.

Vice-President of our club, Joe Ondrusek presided over the meeting in the absence of President Richard Sykora who was unable to attend due to a death in the family.

The meeting was quite long in duration, for many interesting reports were given.

A financial report for the year 1958 was given by past Treasurer Kenneth Brown. The club began the year with $1,395.29. During the course of the year we made a total of $1,613.95. Donations to our mother Lodge amounted to $1,339.16 In regard to the many social activities of the year, a report was given by Mary Ellen Pehar. Following this a rcrolt on the Teen-Age Choir was pre.;cnted by Jerry Ann Urban.

Carole Nemec gave a , 7ery exact and detailed account of the year's activities.

Her report included such things as monthly meetings, district ineetings and

Strana 23 youth days.

Then James Janousek reported on the trip to Wiley's Dude Ranch last summer.

Lastly our Teen Queen Juanita Janousek reported on the Beseda Group.

Lranediately after these reports the meeting was turned over to Mr. Joe B. Hejny who went through a brief but an impressiVe and meaningful ceremony for the installation of officers. He addressed the club, commenting on the greatness of it. He told us that we are an insperation to all other teen-age organizations. Mr. Hejny impressed upon us the fact that if by the consistent use of educational, promotional, and sportsmanlike means in all dealings of the club, success is surely inevitable. He then permitted the new officers to resume the meeting.

Toward tile end of the meeting, Mr. Ben Jarma congratulated us on our past success and wished further success in the future. At length, Mr. Sid Pokladnik addressed those present. He commended us highly on our club, stating how proud the Mother Lodge and the Supreme Lodge are of the Dallas teen-agers. He manifested his pride in holding the honor of President of a Lodge with such an active and overwhelming successful teen-age organization.

Upon conapletion of Mr. Pokladnik's . speech the meeting was ended. A quite elaborate tea followed. Dainty pastries were served also.

We would like to express our profound appreciation to all the guests who attended, making our first meeting an unforgetable one.

With best wishes to all I am, Jerry Ann Urban Secretary-Reporter Editor's ote: Many thanks for your report. In the future please use only one side of the paper — Thanks again..

46 • ( LODGE NO. 66 WAVO, TEXAS Dear Readers, This week I will write about the dance we had Saturday night. The music was furnished by the Rejcek orchestra of Abbott. We had a large crowd, as the music sounded very good. I believe every one, as usual, enjoyed themselves tremendously.

Also, in about March, or some where ?round there, we are going to add on to the Hall. We are going to have, as planned, a larger kitchen, a pool room, a lunch.eon room, larger hall, larger bar, 4 rest rooms, and possibly a nursery room. We, the members, are very excited to get the building over with so we can have another beautiful hall to look at. I hope everyone will like it as much as we db.

St•ana 24 On Friday night, Jan. 9, my cousin, who was 31/2 months old, died from a heart ailment. She was taken to the hospital in Dallas Monday, and was operated on Friday. Unfortunately, the operation was not successful and the baby died. She was buried in West, Texas on Sunday afternoon at 3 p.m.. Father Bockholt gave a very fitting servon for this little baby. I am sure everyone thought it was beautiful. The baby was a very beautiful one, with the name of Veronica. Agnes Sykora. Thank you all who attended the funeral.

Sincerely, Your Co-Reporter, Hattie Matus Editor's Note: Thanks for your report but in the future please use only one side of the paper. ) 4 ( YOUTH AT LODGE 84, DALLAS, TEX.

Only this time I am going to write about organizing a teen-age Youth Club.

After the last meeting adjourned, a group of teen-age girls discussed plans to organize a new teen-age Youth Club because we all agreed that teen-agers and pre-teenagers don't mix. Teen-agers have different opinions and ideas than the pre-teens; therefore we will organize a new club and elect a leader.

The following members will join the new club; Frances Jurica, Linda Castro, Dorothy Juries., Jackie Regmund, Kathryn Jurica and Kathy Kubala. We would like all other members over 12 years of age to join our club.

No one will be sorry who joins this club because plans are being made for much entertainment and fun. By being a mernber of this Youth Club, you will always be welcome and never a dull moment Will be spent in our meetings.

The teen-agers already have discussed ways and means of raising money for the club. Among the group many fine suggestions were made and this is one of the best ways to make a club successful.

Come to the February meeting and let's get the new club off to a good start.

I will write more about the teen-age club in the future.

Fraternally yours, Frances Jurica • t. ) •

Brothers and Sisters We can make the year 1959 a turning point to greater success in our SPJST and it is in our power to do so, if we stay united, in harmony, ever striving to be friends and win our youth.

Tell Your Prospects These Important Facts "As you know, any company that does business in this state must be licensed and approved by an insurance commissioner. The contract I have shown to you has been fully approved by the insurance 'department, and you need have no concern about my organization paying exactly what this contract says it will pay.

"I would not be representing this orfanization if I did not have complete confidence in it; because as you know, I work almost entirely from referrals of satisfied clients. If any of them lost confidence in either me or my company, I am sure you can see that without referrals I would' be almost out of business.

Many of your friends personally believe in our SPJST insurance and I am sure it will stand the most rigid investiga•ton." „ • et,„ •

Tell Him rth It is natural for a man to be soliie what reluctant to discuss his money matters. But it's just good business to give your life insurance agent all the facts. He asks only the questions that need to be answered — to bring out information that he knows from experience will help him to help you.

Talk freely with him — and know that what you say will be held in strict confidence. Discuss things with your life insuranse agent openly and frankly, just, as you would with your doctor or lawyer.

Omit even one fact and you may seriously impair the effectiveness of your insurance program. A qualified agent can be of tremendous help to you in planning for pour future and your family's security. Choose your life insurance agent with care. And when you do, tell him the facts.
