Mnoho se nyni mluvi o obelniku, kterY neday no vydalo americke ministerstvo g koistvi, v nemi se doporueuje studium cizich jazykii, zejmena pak mezi pkistehovalci udr2ovani matekskeho jazyka a kultury. Je spravne, 2e si Washington uvedomuje, do jake miry posili strukturu americke spoleenosti jeji ureita kulturni ritznorodost. ObeZnik Washingtonu je vgak pouze pkiponainkou neeeho, oe v gechny pkistehovalecke narodni skupiny da vno usiluji. Jejich dosavadnim snaham, zda se, americka vlada nevenovala vetsi a rozhodne ne finaneni pod porn. eeske doplriovaci gkoly se yydrkuji kde byli ze soukromYch penez, nebylo na slugne platy kvalifikovanYch uditelri, nejsou pomricky a nove mluvnice.

Ptame se, zda obanik ministerstva gkolstvi by nemel vet gi prakticke ceny, kdyby byl doprovazen nojakYm planem na finaneni podporu — statnich nebo federalnich rikadri — jino narodnim gkolam.

Ovgem s otazkou, zda posilame nebo neposilame sve cileti do 'Ceske nebo slovensite Skoly, se musime vypokadat sami.

Ale jak dobre jsou tyto gkoly a jak cilevedomeji postupovat ye vyuenvani jinYch jazykil a narodnich kultur, se musi nutne stat zaleatosti americkYch dnich organfL maji-li o to skuteenk zdjem. Na kvalite techto gkol bude do velke miry zaviset odpoved', jaka bude to Ce gtina. kterou budeme my a na ge dCti hovokit a psat za deset, dvacet let. Otazka tu zajiste neni s mists, zda takovou Ce gtinu stoji za to uddovat a rieelem teto me ftvahy jest, podat omluvu tem rodiCum jich2 dCti ji2 dues Cesky nemluvi.

Vincek nemohl se zdrZeti sinichu, odkallal a potichu odkradl se do lesa.

Jan sedel chvili u ohne, ale potom take odplilil se za Vinckern. Ale najednou vzbudilo se v nem vedomi 1patneho kousku. Jeho svevolnost pooinala se u neho deliti s rozumnosti a proto usoudil, ale toho nemel delatl, a rnrzel se na nalaaiho bratra pro jeho svevolne, vrtoSive napady.

V nedeli rano odeSel do mesta k obchod nikovi s diivirn, gidovi Lovyndu, a nabizel mu les ke koupi. Bylo sice v meste nekolik obchodnikil s drivim, ale tomu mohj prodati k-s za hotove, a o to se mu hlavne jednalo, aby mel v rukou penize.

Zdalo se mu vehni obtigno spoeitati vSechny stromy v lese, aby sebe neoSidil. , Hned odpoledne, nerrmje hrube east" se najisti, odchvatal do lesta a zadal poditati stromy. Ale napoeitav asi padesat strorna, zmatl se, neveda, ktere stromy ji g poeital a ktere ma poditati. Proto zadal znova na Sirku lesa, ale opet ptestal.

"Neni mogna, to se musi odhadnout", pomyslil si a pripada na, jinST zpasob. Udela' pet krokt, .spoeital stromy a pak pteSel celY les na delku, poditaje kroky.

Nernel sire jisteho poetu, ale piece byl spokojen Se ptibli gne odhadl poeet stromu. jich asi etyti sta a noeltaje pramerne strom za tti zlate, odhadl cenu lesa, na dvanact set. Ale nernaje jistoty, zdali dobte odhadl, slevil jedno sto, tak ze zbylo jenom jedenact stovek.

"Neyim, nevim, tam ten ruradek a vitr takovY vodni — kdog vi, co da Panbtin", poveciel stated, a jeho ryhovanY oblieej se pochybne zasttel.

Staral se side o synovo hospodatstvi, ale proto ge ho pteSla kypici leta, pozoroval ji g v podali synovy place a daval rady; nyni poeinal si mnohem klidneji net za mladYch let a bral vSecky veci tak, jak je eas ptines1 dill jak Panbah dal.

"Dnes ptijde Lovy kupovat les, mohi byste jit s nami," nadhodil Jan sve ni a hleetel na zem, eekaje, ze otec vyete mu jako Gbydejne zbytedne starosti, kte re mu vzejdou koupi-li grunt.

Ale nestalo se tak. Otci jako by to bylo lhostejno, nebot' pouze dodal: "A kolik si ceniS les?"

"Jedenact stovek," odpovedel Jan a zkoumal otce.

"Jedenact stovek, hm, jenom abys je dostal. Ale ja myslim, Se ti dye stovky strhne. fz.ekni radSi dvanact, a zastane to ph rovnem poetu," minil stars/ Raj noch, zvedl oei a v duchu podital.

"Poslechnu vas, tatieku," odtuSil Jan a rovnel podital a poeital bez konce. Kolem devate prisel Sid, svalnatY, fidce zarostlY, pronikavYch oci, ktere zkoumaly neklidne chovani Janovo. Vkrodil do svet nice, pozdravil tilisne a dodal, Se nema easu, aby se dlouho nemeAkali.

Jan byl rad, Se vSecko bude brio u konce, a nadhodil, Se dojde jenom pro tatieka. Ve chvatu nepozoroval, kterak Lovy nelibe vyhrnul hotejSi ret a zavrtel hlavou.

"Neni tteba, smluvime se hned," poved,e1 Lovy, vzal Jana pod pa gi a tahl jej yen, ale Jan se vysmekl, omlouvaje se, Se rano otci o torn povidal, a rychle odskoeil do vS7minku.

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK Life Policies For Family Planning Lead In Amount 'sok

Dear Youth Directors: I am happy to report that interest in our Youth Club activities is still increasing.

This week I had reports from, Bryan and Ennis that they are organizing ball teams in their clubs, who will be next?

Now is a good time to get started in order that you may have ample time to prepare for a good ball team.

This time of year is also a good time to have a kite flying contest in your Clubs.

I attended a kite flying contest last Saturday here in Temiple; it was sponsored by the Temple Daily Telegram and we really enjoyed it. You should have seen hew the children enjoyed flying those kites, and the grown-ups too. They all had determination to have their Children's kites fly, mothers and dads alike.

You could see them on their knees making adjustments on kite strings and tails.

I believe this would be a wonderful way for your Club to spend an enjoyable day and it also is educational for the children too, because the strings have to be adjusted just so and so and the tail has to be just so long and heavy before the kite will fly. One thing you must remember though, do not allow any metal parts or wire on the kites as this is dangerous, should the kite get entangled into some power lines, the child holding the string could be electrocuted.

Another thing that is stirring a lot of interest in our Youth Clubs is the queen contest in the lodges as well as in the Districts. I really wish that we would be able to have a queen contest in all our Districts this year. Of course, this will have to be discussed in our District meetings which will be held this spring. If you Youth directors and the children of your Club are in favor of this queen contest, I would really appreciate your sup-

The type of life insurance policies used in long-range family financial planning accounted for the great bulk of all life insurance individually owned at the start of last year, according to the Institute of Life Insurance.

Although group life insurance has tripled since 1950, ordinary insurance, the type bought individually in units of $1,000 or more, has risen 78 per cent in those years and accounts for more than half of the total gain in insurance in force since 1950.

Social Security Inf ration An annual earnings report must be filed by April 15 by many persons who received monthly social security benefits in 1958, it was announced recently by the Social Security Administration.

This earnings report is mandatory for all beneficiaries whose earned income was more than $1,200 in 1958 and who were under age 72 (during any part of the year, Bracken said. Failure to file this report by April 15 may result in a suspension of benefits and a loss of some future benefits. The report form may be obtained upon request to the nearest Social Security Office.

Earnings to be reported include all amounts received for work as an employee and any net earnings from self-en-ployment whether or not such income is covered by the Social Security Act., Income from savings, investments, pensions, rentals, or insurance does not count as part of the $1200 ear flings allowed.

Bracken pointed out that this report of earnings is not required of disabled persons receiving disability benefil s.

However, if a disabled person recovers to the point that he can perform some substantial gainful work, that fact must be reported to the social security office. ) •( If you sacrifice principles for friendship, you lose something and gain no l hing worth having.

Made at the "All Nations Festival" On February 21, 1959 Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen: It is a great pleasure for me to have a small part in your program tonight.

Your performance here representing the various cultures in this area of the state should serve as an example for the rest of the world, that people with different national origins can live together, share and appreciate each others culture.

Frequently we hear the term "typical American" made in reference to our actions, behavior and accomplishments. To whom are we referring when we say, "typical American?" Is he a citizen livtion of our country? Is be a person pining in some particular city, state or section of our country? Is 1-te. a person pursuing some specific vocation? Is he an :individual professing a certain religious faith? Is he one who advocates and supports a distinctive form of government?

Is he singled out as the one representing a specific race, color or nationality?

No, he isn't one of these. I don't believe that is what we mean by the tenyi "typical American."

To find this person you need only to look about you — these performers here tonight, the person sitting next to you and you yourself, are all typical Americans.

We owe our American heritage to our ancestors who , came to America from so many countries of the world. Those countries represented here are only a small number of that group. These early Americans brought with them firm religious and political convictions, diversified skills for making a living, social and literary traditions, and above !all the desire to build for the future.

When the early settlers came to Texas there were no schools or churches.

They hastened to build crude facilities which were used for worship and classrooms. The instruction was carried on in the language that they brought from their native land.

They quickly put to good use the versatility of skills they knew to establish self-sufficient communities, Which have now grown into thriving cities The history of our country relates the innutrierable achievements, contributions, and heroic deeds that out ancestors have 'made.

The credit for our having the kind of government we have is due in large part to the visions and high ideals instilled in

I know everyone will enjoy themselves, you see, the youth at Lodge No. 84 are giving a play for entertainment of those attending. The play will be put on right after the meeting. So

Through the kindness of Sister Bessie Petr of Lodge No. 84, Dallas, Youth Leader of District III, we have received clippings of a Dallas newspaper in which there is a write-up about our Sister Judy Bouska who at the same time is a student at Lady of Good Council College.

Judy Bouska as well as members of her whole family, are members of our SPJST Lodge No. 130 in Dallas.

The article says that this young Dallasite, just 5 feet 4 inches tall is averaging 32.2 points at each game of basketball. Judy scored 38 points against Lewisville this week, that brought her total to 482 points. Judy has a one-hand jump shot and some good driving, that enables her to score against taller opponents.

Will write a short letter to the Vestilik and let the young readers know what we're doing here on the Gulf Coast.

First I want to thank Brother Frank Veselka, President of Lodge 56, for helping us teenagers to get a teenage division in the Youth Club. The teenagers were allowed to plan their own entertainment, but still will be under leadership of Sister Judy Majek. So for the teenagers had a movie party and attended a basketball game — at Del Mar College.

All of us had much fun and are planning to have more of assorted entertainment through out the year.

Corpus Christi is growing by leaps and bounds and much entertainment can be found at all times As I mentioned in my first letter that I play basketball. I am so glad that I have this opportunity to be playing on such a fine team. Why? Well our team has a second place trophy in the district.

Next year I'll be playing again on the team. Now we will play volleyball for awhile and later baseball.

I'll end my letter for now, will write at a later date on the teenage activities.

A Teenager, Kathryn Jurica $ )• TEENAGE DIVISION LODGE NO. 84 Dallas, Texas Dear Members and Readers: Sunday, March 8, the teen-agers held their regular monthly meeting. Several teen-agers were present.

The meeting followed along the regular line of business, with much emphasis on the various committees. Each committee head reported on his committee members.

Brother Sid Pokladnik, Lodge 84's President, attended our meeting. He presented checks to the winners of the Points Contest. From our Lodge, they were: Carole Nemec, who was not only first in our Lodge, but also in the whole state of Texas; James Janousek and Juanita Janousek, who tied for second place in our Lodge; and Richard Sykora who won third place. The teen-agers want to congratulate all of these "hard

WedneAday, March 18, 1959 workers." We certainly are proud of you and your untiring efforts will be an inspiration to the rest of us.

Brother Pokladnik also requested that each of the girls present at the meeting write an essay based on the theme, "Why I Like the SPJST." These essays would be read at the next Mother Lodge meeting and the writer of the best essay would be Lodge84's representative in the District III Queen Contest. The winner will be announced later.

Our meeting was cut slightly short this month in order to provide time for the girls writing their essays and in order that we could attend the housewarming given for Mr. and Mrs. Sid Pokladnik in their new home. After the party, however, we all came back to the hall for a rehersal of our play.

I'd like to remind you all that the date of our play is just around the corner. So, please be sure to circle the date on your calendar and make plans to attend. The date again is March 22, the day of the Spring meeting of District III. Best regards to all!

OTTO L. IIOSEK DALLAS, TEXAS March is here, which means that up in Okeene, Oklahoma, a bunch , of snake hunters are probably getting ready for their annual rattlesnake roundup.

They have it every year up there, in a place called Salt Creek Canyon which isn't far from Okeene. It is in the Gypsum Hills and only a few miles south of the former hideout of the lotlarw Dalton brothers.

They have a local chef's delight up there which sort of highlights the hunt.

It's chicken fried snake, and they prepare a "snake snackscack" every spring to give the folks a taste of fried snake Have you ever eaten fried snake? We did, just one time. It was out at the club at one of the Hunter and. Fishermen Liars Club's wild game feasts. They say it tastes something like fried chicken or canned tuna, sort of in-between.

Anyhow, they make quite a thing of this up in Okeene.

Early hunters go out and bring in a batch of reptiles before the roundup, which is usually held the last of March About this time of year, rattlers are sluggish from the cold. They say getting them is like shooting ducks on a pond.

They say the biggest ever captured in the roundup, back in 1953, was 791/2 in 1/2 inches, and-cheslongTatis6fe,7 it is quite a rattlesnake.

Okueene is such a snake place that the International Association of Rattlesnake Hunters has its headquarters there.

Austin — Nearly one third the number of deer restocked on the Cedar Creek Restoration Area in . 1953 and 1954 were killed during the 1958 hunting season, according to the Director of Wildlife Restoration, Game and Fish Commission.

During the two earlier years, 209 deer were restocked on the Cedar Creek area.

In 1958, the first year hunting was allowed on the area since the restocking,

Strana 28

68deer were dropped by licensed hunters there. Of these 33 were killed on leased land and 35 on land not leased.

The Cross Roads Area, also in Henderson County, produced 62 deer. Of this amount, 44 were killed on leased land and 18 were bagged on land not under lease. This section is in the south end of the county, while the Cedar Creek stretch is located in the northwest part.

The total legal harvest for Henderson County in 1958 was 132 deer. Other than those mentioned, two were bagged in the east part of the county near LaRue. Five deer were killed accidentally on the county highways and there was one known illegal kill. This was a doe killed along the Neches River. Five deer were last to hunters and later found dead.

Approximately $5,000 was paid to landowners for leases on hunting privileges in Henderson County. in 1958. ) • Jo • (
