V t S TN t K WEST, Tgx,As _ si jiz u na'Seho kadu zvolili princeznu?

KdyZ jsem mu zaeal vysvetlovat, 2e jeSte ne, a Ze ji asi ani nezvolime proto ae kdy2 jsem to v nail ptede gle schrizi ptednesl, ZadnY se o to nezajimal a jeli ko2 tech mladych sestrieek v tech letech mame u na geho radu male, tak to ostalo tak. Br. HejnY se nine tazal jestli jsem Ceti ye Vestniku jak to pekne dopadlo v tretim okrsku kde prave tu nede li pted tim korunovali kralovnu.

Povidal jsem Ze ano, ale Ze co dokae distrikt, e nam by bylo teZko dokazat. Tu on se do mne pustil a povidal, Ze ten rad co s neho ta kralovna byla zvolena, neni take leSte velikY ale ae to dokazali proto, ae tam dobre pracovali — a Ze jsem tam mel na te slav nosti bYt a viclet jak to bylo krasne — jak Y tarn byl o to zajem v gech a jaka, to byla radost to mladeZ pozorovat V te je jich spolkove einnosti.

Jak jsem jiZ psal, on ten na g mistopredseda takove veci bere velice vane, a kdyZ mne je gte rekl. Ze kdybychom i my tady se do toho tak dali, ie bychom to mohli take dokazat, tak u2 jsem zaeinal mit strach a honem jsem mu sliboval, ie v gak my se tedy opravdu o to jegte jednou pokusime. Vito vied jaky jest ten na g mistopredseda velikY chlapisko — tak ie odporovat jemu by mohlo katastrovne dopadnout — tak co jsem mel jineho delat? No a vite co?— vSisledek toho v geho je, ie jiZ princeznu zvolenou niame a i par novYch prospektft!

Princezna je hezka sestrieka Barbara Grohman — tak tedy budeme nasledovat prikladu tretiho distriktu — a tegime se, Ze take nee° dokaZeme.

Hodiny (M. Jahn) (Pokradovani) Ze sveho detstvi, vypravoval mi pHtel, pamatuji se jasne na pokoj decleektiv Byla to svetnice, ye ktere dedeeek zemtel a v nil se snad nicim nepohnulo od jeho smrti. Malokdo vkroeil do neho, aby snad neruS11 posvatne vzpominky na zemteleho dededka.

Jedenkrat — bylo mi tehda asi pet ro ka, jsem °tee, jak veael do toho pokoje. Protahl se po prstech dvetmi a chytil jsem otce za okraj kabatu, jako bych s nim si chtel zahrati "na schovavanou."

"Selmo," ekl mi s asmevem otec a lehce se dotekl mYch Tim lichocenim dobyl jsem si snad u neho prava, de jsem smel zastati v tajnern pokoji, kterY mou zvedavost nejednou podraddil.

RozeSel jsem se svetnici, tekaje dokola odima.

VSude jsem videl start a podivnY ndbytek: dubovY stolek s nohami prektidenYmi, oble tezane didle, girokou skein• s ryhami oprYskanYmi a silnYm kovdnim z mosazi a na skfini hodiny v dente leg tene barokni schrance se dverna sloupci z abele.

Postal jsem chvili pled nimi. Nesly, ja koby s dedeekem ustal v nich pohyb. Roz vadoval jsem, prod tyto hodiny nejdou, kdedto ty ostatni hodiny v pokojich ti-

trana 9 kaji a hYbaji sem tam kyvadly.

Otec mne vide', jak jsem se vpijel oeima do hodin.

"Nat se tak divad?" ptal se mne s smevern, s jakYm se divame na deti.

"Tu na ty hodiny," tekl jsem, najednou zvadnev. " 'di se ti libi?"

"Libi, jenom de nejdou—" "Jsou pokadeny."

"Co se jim stalo?"

"Maji zkadena koleeka."

"A maji hodiny koleeka?"

Myslil jsem, ae hodiny nejsou tak jako vaz, aby mely koleeka, a de se hYbaji samy od sebe, protode je Dad() byl natahl.

Nyni vSak otec, aby mou zvedavost ukojil, otevfel hodiny, polozil na didli a vaecek ten tajemnY vnitiek mi ukazal.

Bylo tam tolik dlutYch koleoek s ostrymi zuby jako u naSeho Azora. Ud, jsem chtel koleoka rortoeit prstem, ale otec mi nedal. Pravil mi, de bych je polamal. Uzav fel hodiny a postavil na skein zase na toted misto a tine, po prstech se mnou opustil pokoj.

A od to doby hodiny byly v me vellke Clete tak j ako cosi damyslneho, demi' snad otec rozumel, deho jsem ja vaak doposud neumel chapati.

Jednou se stalo, de jsern byl s detmi v sousednim nadvoli. KterYsi z chlapctit donesl "frkalku," takovou dfevenou brad ku: koleeko z hodin uprostic ed s koliehem.

Chlapec rozvrtil kolieek v prstech, pustil a "frkalka" rychle a dlouho se to Gila, hudic jakYrnsi mecivedovitYm zvukem. VSichni jsrne meli radost z nove to hraekv a kaddY z nas chtel miti takovou "frkalku."

Ja si to vzpomnel na ony hodiny v pokoji dedeekove a hned jsem za.rozumoval. "Vyber ukoledka, udelam "frkalku" a nikdo nepozna. Oni se beztoho dovnitf tam nepodivaji."

A tak ve mne rychle to my glenka usrala, de jsem jen dekal, az vaichni odejdou.

Skutedne odesli v nedeli nekam na vS T -let.Zisajmdochvubratrem Gustou. Chuva sedela v kuchyni, kola v knidkach a Gusta si emaral jokesi hlouposti do seAitu. Povidal, prt jsou to potty. Ja zatim potaji slidil po klidich. Visely u dvefi na kroudku a pfilakaly mne, de jsem si pfistavil didli, seimul je se steny a rychle i s nimi vygel jsem na chodbu. V mysli me nahle se zdouvala hrdost, de nikdo z chlapcit nebude miti podobne "frkalky".

Srdce mi zatlouklo strachem. 1361 jsem se chfivy, ktera nas karala ostrymi vy no kaddem ntestupku, vet6i strach mel jsem v§ak z Gustava. On byl mne

Strana 10 stargi as o dye 'eta a mezi nami detmi mel üloliu tajneho policisty. On se vilely lichotil matce, sledoval na ge krodeje a stale na nas 2aloval matce, ktera nas pkisne trestala.

Pfepliail jsem se ye strachu chodbou a v nejvagim chvatu zkou gel jsem kliee.

Rychie jsem odemkl, vkradl se do dededkova pokoje, pfistavil aidli, otevfel hodiny a u2 jsem byl v barbarskem dile. To ell jsem ye stroji groubky a koleoky, a2 to v nem fineelo. Vyrial jsem St'astne asi tfi koleeka, rychle jsem vybehl z pokoje, uzamkl, uschoval koleoka do kapsy a povesil kliee v domacim pokoji na jejich obvykle misto.

Chvel jsem se doposud strachem, ale pak spadlo se mne ohromne Olive zava21. Chvatne jsem odbehl na dviir, pkistrouhal kolieky, zastreil doprostted koleeek a s novYmi hradkami gel jsem se .pochvalit nejbliagim chlapcum. Ale ti zase mi nabidli k vYmene nove sve hrad ky a tak lehce a snadne ode mne vylakali vgecka tfi koleeka.

Vgecka ta pfihoda byla na chvili zapomenuta.

Tak asi za tYden zase jsme byli s Gustou v pokoji. On cosi emaral do sveho segitu a vyhliael znepokojene. Najednou pkistoupil ke mne a fekl mi tvrele: "Ty jsi vzal koleeka." Zaryl se do mne studenY- m zrakem, kterSi chorobne leskl. Zro vna mne hypnotisoval, 2e jsem hned ztuhl strachy. Nemel jsem sily, abych mu odpovedel.

"Ty jsi vzal koleeka," fekl mi podruhe.

Nikdy jsem nelhal a jen jsem po tichu vygeptal: "Vzal jsem."

"Poekej, zkazil jsi hodiny, v gecko to .povim," fekl mi Gusta a v &deh mu zasvitlo podivne svetlo.

Postal jsem okarnaik podoben 13ezduche sok.

"Prosim, të. Guston, nefiker, upro goval jsem bratra bojacnSm hlasem, kterr mi selhaval v hrdle.

"Povim to jiste," odfekl Gusta, odegel chladne ode nine, usedl za still a zase psal dale v segitu.

Prosil jsem Gustu opetne, plakal a svjjel se pied nim, ale on na mne nehledel, nev gimal si mne a jenom chvilemi studene no nine pohledl vS7hritanYrn pohledem, ye kterem byla mstivost a .t'. oba.

A Few Words From The Edit©r Your life insurance policies contain options of settlement that not only makes it possible to fit them to almost any type of program plan but which also can add hundreds and even thousands of dollars to the total amount our members will pay.

Our organizational Department will be glad to show you the various ways you can arrange our policies to fit your plan and get the most out of them. Just as professional builders can do the best job of making a pile of bricks into a home, so we can be helpful in making your policies into a house of protection.

Ther e is no charge or obligation. just call us, or one of our Organizers.

You're better prepared for whatever the future holds when you have a sound life insurance program. Whether you meet with, an unforseen emergency or come face to face with some big opportunity, the nest egg you build up in your life insurance can come in mighty handy. Living benefits of life insurance can play a big part in your future financial success. Remember, the same insurance that protects your family in the growing up years is a source of ready cash for cushioning misfortunes, taking advantage of opportunities. And in your later years this same accumulated fund can make your retirement enjoyable.

Today's life insurance market is more informed, and in many cases more complex, but our SPJST program offers improved services as we are dedicated to give the highest standard of life insurance of a fraternal order.

Examine our Financial Statements!

Honoring Our Brother Our good brother H. W. Marchak has been selected by the San Antonio Associated Grocers to serve as their President of Board of Directors. Congratulations are in order and it has made us happy to report this honorable event.

Reports From Local Lodges FROM THE 7TH DISTRICT Can Antonio, Texas Sisters and Brothers: The measure of the effectiveness of our organizational work is an inventory at mid-year. The month of June is our mid-year, and therefore time to check our activity.

Well, I am very happy to announce that the semi-annual inventory of progress see.r gs to be satisfactory. Our membership shows some increase, but watch out for the sossibility of a slump later on - we can only succeed if we continue to work at our program, open new fields of service and keep a continuing program before us.

In the month of July the following organizers sold insurance: Brother Frank C. Sacky - - $7,000.00 Brother John Stasa - - - $5,000.00 Brother Henry Sralla - - - $2,000.00 Sister Arnold Franke /W. A. Janca $1,000.00 Brother Charles Novosad - $1,000.00 Thanks, sister and brothers, for your fine work, I will be delighted to list your names again on the next month's Honor Roll.

The district seven youth director in her letter published in the Vestnik No. 26, issued July 1st, announced, terms of the "Queen Contest" in our district, covering an eleven week (74 day) period, which will close September 12th, 1959.

Therefore, you still have two more months in which to work in an effort to help us promote this important contest and to earn some of the offered high prizes for yourself.

Vt$TNIX- WEST, TEXAS LODGE COTTONWOOD NO. 6 West. Texas Dear Readers, Members and Friends, A Victory Party was held last Saturday night, July 11th, at the SPJST Cottonwood Lodge Hall honoring all of the new members of 1959 and those that were secured during the two-month contest in District III for the District III Queen's Crown, in which the lodge organizers and princesses in this district worked very hard to win.

Princess Jeanie Hubik of our Lodge won the District Three Crown over eight of the other lovely contestants from Dallas, Ft. Worth, Ennis, Waco and West.

Also on the honor list to receive species recognition were the Krizan brothers, John and Rudolph who in their best efforts in selling insurance gained the greatest number of points for the Queen Crown for our lodge Princess Hubik.

Our lovely princess' escort was Brother Jerry Janek of our lodge who became the King of our Lodge.

This new honor for our lodge has made us very happy. It is like a "booster" shot in the arm and our lodge has big plans for the future. Watch for us in our Vestnik. â&#x20AC;˘ 4, 4, INVITATION TO Tim COTTONWOOD LODGE NO 6i PICNIC AUGUST 2 Cottonwood Lodge No 6, located three miles east from the city of West, Texas, takesthis means of inviting you to attend their Picnic, held on the Lodge Hall grounds on Sunday, August 2nd.

Entertainment Committee Cottonwood Lodge No. 6 )* â&#x20AC;˘(

But, not only our organizers have to be responsible for the results, all members in our whole district have to show their interest and help in securing new members. Letters went out from Supreme Lodge to all organizers and also to all lodges, urging them to participate in the contest. I believe, sisters and brothers, that everyone will do his best.

There can be no shirkers among us, and certainly, no selfrespecting member will want to desert his duties by declining to stand shoulder to shoulder with all members in promoting the contest. Your cooperation will greatly help your lodges - your district and the whole organization.

As you know, the contest in District DISTRICT III JUNE PROGRESS No. 3 was very successful, and I do hope REPORT we will be able to repeat the same suc$45,500 Anna Milat 154 cess in our District.

That is really teriffic - Congratulations are in order to all whose names appear on the above list.

This is the longest list we have had in some time. Let's keep up the excellent work.

The District III Youth Activity Day on June 28th, 1959 at Dallas was a huge success. There were many entries in both the Hobbycraft and in the Talent contests. This is a good sign that our youth are interested, as it is our youth that are the backbone of our SPJST. We cannot stress enough importance on this point.

Each member of the SPJST should do his part to encourage the youth of their respective lodges, and with our youth leaders, setting forth an effort, as they are, we will go a long way toward a bigger and better SPJST. The outcome of the Queen Contest is as follows: Points Lodge Ins 6 $73,000 87,500 Jeanie.

In my travels through the District this spring, I was told that a little Lodge doesn't have a chance to winbut it was proven different - Lodge No. 6, Cottonwood is not a big lodge, however, if they keep up their work at the rate they are going, it won't be too long before it will be a big lodge.

I wiuld like to take this opportunity

Wednesday, July 22, 1959 to express ray sincere thanks and appreciation to all organizers who helped to make this contest the success it was: to Sister Emma Ceska, the District III Youth Leader, her assistant, Sister B. Peter; all youth leaders, to our "Vestnik" to all officers and all members of our District III who had any part in any way to help make this day a glorious day in the history of our SPJST as a day of Progress. -- Thank you all again.

Fraternally, A. M. Vrla, Dist. III Organizer a, ( LODGE NO. 30 TAITON, TEXAS This is to inform you that our next Lodge meeting will be held August 2.

All our members that are behind with their payments are asked to come to this promptly, as there is no money left in our treasury to help anyone out in the future and we all face suspension if we do not pay up. So do not neglect this and be sure to come August the 2nd.

Fraternally, J. F. Fiala, Secty. ) KOVAR, TEXAS Dear Brothers and Sisters, Not long ago, I was again honored by a visit of our Vice-President, Brother Joe B. Hejny. I am always glad to have him come down, but at the same time, knowing how conscientious he is about his duties as Vice-President, and especially in his organizational work of which he has charge, makes me ponder whether or not I have, myself, done all that he expected me to do. There is no use to try tc beat around the bush — doesn't go for that stuff, so I wondered what his purpose would be this time.

And find out I did, soon enough. He started out by asking me if we at our lodge have already selected a Princess for the Contest which started the first of July. I told him that I have brought it up at our last lodge meeting, that we discussed it, but that no one was very much interested and since we do not have but a very few young sisters in those age brackets, that the matter was sirgply tabled. He called my attention to what and how they handled the matter in District III. That the winning Princess was from a small lodge, that they in that lodge simply worked hard and got ahead of lodges that are much larger than their own.

Brother Hejny further pointed out that I should have attended the Coronation of the Queen of District III in eTo • (

V fILS TNtK— WEST, TEXAS Dallas to see the enthusiasm of all of the young members over there. He laid it on pretty thick and he ended it all by saying that perhaps if we would all try a little harder that we just might succeed, too. Well, you know what a big fellow he is, and I started to be a little scared, so, I promised that we would try again — and, do you know what happened as a result of all of this? We already have a Princess! We selecte'd her last Sunday's meeting. I gave the membership a pretty good talking to, though I don't think that anyone got scared, but it worked! So why not try it that way in your lodge if you do not already have a Princess selected. It's just like Brother Hejny said—you got to start pushing it before you can expect it to start moving. Our Princess is Sister Barbara Grohman and she's got some points earned already, so, it looks good, thanks to our Vice-President Brother Hejny.

We also decided at our last Sunday's meeting to have a picnic here at Kovar in the near future. We will give you the details later. So, please come down to see us!

Most folks around here are complaining about the excessive heat we've been having the last few weeks, but it may be a good idea to try to get used to it, (because we have been told that the place where some of us are eventually going will be much hotter than the hottest we've ever had here — but who knows?) So, we will just have to wait and see — in the meantime we will have to take it as it comes.

I also wish to give you our progress report for the month of June, it is as follows: Lodge Mealier Ins. P. P. Baron 1 1 $8,000 C. 0. Dusek 17 1 1,500 Mrs. Mollie Ewell 14 1 1,000 E. R.

I must send my thanks to Brother Ed. Vavra from Lodge No. 14, for the nice report he gave in his last letter in our Vestnik about my little granddaughters.

Believe me, they enjoyed it to and would be glad to come back over there anytime.

With best wishes to you all, I am as Yours, always.

.Strana 19 SLAVONIC BENEVOLENT or,DER OF THE STATE OF TE,,,LIS SEIST DISTRICT .V Attention : Organizers' : Lodge Officers, And Members of District V: Enclosed you will find .rules and regulations covering the operation plan of our Fall District Organizers Queen and King Contest that is "kicking off" July 15th of this year.

The duration of the entire contest is three months ending October 15, 1959 and is divided into two-half periods.

The first half will be called the "interlodge contest" that will decide the win-ning Princess and her Prince who will qualify as candidates for District V Queen and King Contest. The first half closes August 31st.

Every organizer is qualified and should sponsor a Princess and her Prince to enter into the first half "inter-lodge contest", and the Princess receiving the greatest amount of points will be the winner of her own lodge. The winning Princesses points will be counted into the second half of the District V contest. Points gained by the loosers in the first half will not be counted nor can be credited to the winning princess for the final half of the District V contest.

The purpose of dividing this contest, into these two periods is to give every local organizer of our District the same chance of winning in the District, regardless of the size of lodge represented.

It simply means that the winning Princess and her chosen Prince will be the ones sponsored by the Organizers procuring the greatest amount of insurance and new membership. Naturally the organizer, Princess, and Prince team that is successful in obtaining the greatest amount of insurance and new membership will be the winners.

We sincerely hope that all you organizers and members of our District will get behind this contest and get started at once. Line up your Princesses and their chosen Princes before July 15th, if at all possible. This will not only i ncrease in membership but create new interest and activity among our youth.

If any further information is desired, please contact any undersigned committee member or Frank Olexa, District President; or J. M. Skrabanek, District V Organizer.

After the meeting adjourned — the good sisters prepared a good lunch. The weather was real hot but the hot coffee tasted good anyway!

So, here's hoping I shall get to see all of you on July 26th at our Lodge Celebration. Our Hall will also be 25 years old this month, so in a way it's a two-inone celebration.

Fraternally yours, Mrs. Frank Pokorny, Reporter.

There is plenty of work to do in the fields, however, as corn top cutting is in full swing. Won't be long and we will have to drag the picksacks again for cotton looks good this year.

We had our meeting as usual, the second Sunday in the month. The attendance was poor, I'm just wondering why you members don't come to our meetings as you all know this is your lodge and you have to help keep it ever growing. So, dear folks, let's all remember the second. Sunday in August and do come — all of you, won't you mark your calendar please?

We want to have a picnic and supper during the summer, but how can we plan with only a few being present') There are three more Sundays left each month for you to go visiting friends and relatives, so, let's set aside the second Sunday of each month for our Lodge Meeting.

I understand that Mrs. Kasper Cinadr (nee Mary Kubicek) died, Friday in the Shiner Hospital. Then, a colored man, Calvan Brooks, father of nine children was cut on his arm by his sister during an argument and he bled to death before the doctor arrived.

Also, the death of Marvin Jemelka, age 17, who was killed Tuesday night in a car crash in Moulton has saddened everyone in our community. Marvin was 'ouried Friday at Moulton Catholic Cemetery. God wanted him so he picked him

We had a severe thunder and lightning storm Saturday night with 1:80 inches of rain, but no hail.

I remain, Fraternally yours, Mrs. Bessie Fojt ♦ A, ♦ t LODGE JARO NO. 130, DALLAS, TEXAS Dear Readers: Our new Sokol SP,IST building is nearing completion, with only finishing work to be done. Preparations are going ahead for the opening. On September 12 our tentative plans call for a carnival during the day and a big dance that night. The formal ceremonies will be Sept. 13, and this includes ribbon cutting, guest speakers and a dinner. Another dance with two orchestras playing, will conclude the day's activities. I wish to offer our personal invitation to each and every one of you to attend one or both of these opening day events.

If any of you readers might be interested in purchasing bonds that Sokol SPJST No. 130 have to sell, we would only be too glad to have you do so. These bonds are 10-year bonds, paying 3("( simple interest, payable the let of July of each year. They are being sold in denominations of $25, $50, and $100. Up to the present time we have been successful in selling these bonds to our local people, but we thought that perhaps there would be members throughout the State of Texas, who would like to invest their money — helping our cause and getting a nice return by doing same.

Please contact me at the address below for your bonds, or should you desire further information, I will be glad to answer your questions.

The Annual 4th of July Picnic was brought up• Brother Robert Cervenka thanked everyone who worked before the 4th, on the 4th, and the day after the 4th. The program and kitchen committees and all who helped in any way are very happy to have had such a successful picnic every body worked hard and the nice co-operation was the success. Also Brother Albin Sulak who took charge of the games, and through his efforts we had a nice income. At noon there were not toomany people mingling on the grounds but toward the evening the people began to come, and by night the crowd was enormously large, it really looked like old times, this made everybody happy and they all enjoyed working for such a large crowd.

A visitor at the meeting was Brother John Peter who is a member of Lodge No. 36, he gave a nice talk and I'm sure everyone enjoyed his talk.

Wednesday, July 22, 1959 A gift of $5.00 was given by our Lodge to Shirley Rnn Marek who was Princess of our Lodge No. 54, she and her escort Adolph P. Marek received several nice gifts from the Supreme Lodge and the Dallas Lodge No. 84. This was a big day for all the Princesses who represented their own. Lodges and especially it was a great day for Jeanie Hubik who honored as the Queen and who belongs to our neighboring Lodge No. 6, Cottonwood.

There were several names on the sick list at this meeting, Brother Albin Stlak our Vice-President, is in the Providence Hospital, Brother Henry Popp who was in the hospital having had a tractor accident, Brother Leo Girard Si., who is seriously ill, and Sister Lillian Garner of Arlington, who is the daughter of Brother and Sister Emil Popp was operated on but is now recuperating at her home, and Sister Regina Hromaclka of Arlington is in the Hospital. We wish all these brothers and sisters a speedy recovery. Also Brother John Kostohryz who is our Financial Secretary was mentioned as having been sick and in the hospital, but during the meeting Brother Kostohryz walked in with his books in hand saying he it late for the meeting, but that he felt pretty good so he came to the meeting any way.

It was brought up to paint the Hall, this was left up to the Property Committee, namely Brother Jdhn A. Sulak, Joe_Tobola ands Louis Dudik, to look into.

The meeting was adjourned with various sandwiches and refreshments served by the Hall Committee.

LODGE 81, SOFTBALL TEAM Dear Readers: (Letter dated July 14, received July 15) On Tuesday night, July 9, we played Continental Engraving team and we dropped another 1-0 decision. Again our team played a very good game but we just couldn't score any runs to win the game. Wes Jaska, our pitcher, hurled a very good game, allowing only 5 hits, no walks and struck out 3 batters. you can't ask for a much better pitching effort from a pitcher, same goes for Grady Garrett ,our other pitcher, both have been hurling outstanding ball if only our hitters could get a few runs, the scores would have, and should have been in our favor. Guess we are in a slump and trying too hard to hit the ball. Six more league games, 3 in each league and 2 make-up games remain to be played on our regular schedule and just maybe before the City Playoffs, we will regain our hitting touch. Wilbur (Moose) Munger, our Catcher, turned in a very fine game behind the nlate.

Leading hitters were Jody Rejcek, Ted Dusak Jr., Joe Jarolik and Wilbur Munger with single safties.

We had a nice turnout of fans at the game who really were doing their share of cheering for our boys. We do appreciate such loyal support. We all had an enjoyable get-together after the game.

Friday night. July 10, we were scheduled to play the Lutheran All Stars and we won this game by a score of 7 to 0 as a result of a forefit. They had only 8 players to show up and 9 constitutes a full team. We did play the Lutheran All Stars after loaning them a player, and we played a practice game for 3 innings and the score was 0-0 at 8:30, time for the second scheduled game between Browne Window and Texas Instruments. In the second half of play in our Friday Night Ranger League, we have 5 wins and no losses and we stand a good chance of winning this league and , another league trophy. Grady Gar-

VEST INT K — WEST, TEXAS rett hurled very fine ball allowing only 2 hits and struck out 5 batters in the 3 innings of the practice game. Wilbur Munger, our catcher, caught a fine game. Albin Vrana lead our hitters with 2 hits and Glen Kirk had one hit.

July 16 we played Friedman Steel, Friday, July 17, we played Texas Instruments, both games at Lawnview No. 1.

Thursday, July 23,' we will play McCord Mucic the second game, 8:45 p.m. and Friday, July 24, we play Browne Window, first game at 7:30 p.m. — both at Lawnview No. 1.

We hope to see a lot of you at the games. You are all cordially invited to attend.

Fraternally yours, Ben Jarma, Team Mgr.

• 4 ABOUT HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE While high blood pressure is o disease that is often found in people with emotional disturbances, doctors admit that any type of individual may develop high blood pressure.

It is noted that individuals who have the same tension do not always get thei sane high blood pressure. Consequently, there must be an (added factor which some medical men believe may be "inborn." At any rate, the scientists cannot explain it.

While emotional tension, caused by worry, fretting and anger, may not always develop into high blood pressure, which causes many deaths in our modern civilization, the importance of achieving some stable inner nature cannot be over.ostimated in connection with these disturbances.

The individual who has evolved, a satisfactory philosophy of life, based on a firm religious belief that satisfies, is not apt to be as worried, as angry or upset as those who do not enjoy some peace of mind.

While it cannot be asserted that everybody who attains tihis inner peace', escapes high blood pressure, or that, all those who are upset are attacked by the disease, the exceptions may be explained one day when science learns all there is to be discovered about man and his ailments.

Until complete information is available, we would suggest that all of our readers i.nr.rake an effort s to eliminate worry, fretting and anger. Atter all, when one views human life on the eternal scale, the minor aggrivations and torments of human living are not worth the disturbances so many of us allow them to create in our daily lives. ®t ) ® Grand opening of the new Sokol Hall and also of SPJST Lodge 130, Jaro, will be held Sept. 12, and Sept. 13, at Dallas.

Watch for detailed Program.

You can greatly speed up that important first payment for old-age benefits by having certain proof ready ahead of time, and bringing them with you When you come to apply for benefits.

No payments can be made unless a claim is filled with the social security office. No claim can be approved without the necessary evidence.

Every person who applies for monthly benefits must prove his age or date of birth. A birth certificate is the best evidence, but many other items will doe Many people have used a churdh, school, employment, or hospital record, an old insurance policy, or the original entry by some other relatives in a family Bible.

Any document or record at least ten years old can be considered.

Wives, husbands, widows, or widowers must give proof of marriage. A marriage certificate is good and is available from the Court Clerk where the license was taken out. If an application is made for children, their birth certificate will be needed.

If you have just stopped working, you should bring your latest Federal Income Tax withholding statement (Form W-2 for 1958). Self employed people should always bring extra copies of their in. coa4e tax returns for the last two years.

This should include the Schedule C' or F which shows their self-employment income, and the cancelled check, money, order stub, or bank receipt which shows they paid the tax.

Fora quick payment, get in touch with your nearest social security office at least a month before you retire. Call the office before you come in, to see what proofs you will need to bring with you. ) • ala • Too many people who save for a rainy day work on the assumption that it will be a light shower.
