"Sla leta" (od Vlasty Javoticke) (Pokradovani) Neg se Lojza vzparnatoval, byla ta tam.

Jen dole na humne se kmitly jeji Saty.

"Hedvo Bedviako!" Marne volal, Potacel se jako opilY nahlou radosti a Atestim. Byl tak ornamen, ge nemohl jiti dlouho za Venon spat.

Teprve k pOlnoci se prikradl na ham a svlekaje se, hiedel nejak Skodolibe na bratrova postel.

• • Potom priAly gne a nebylo dasu na nic, led na praci.

Zito najednou dozralo a bylo pilno.

U BeneSil gall tti genci a genske se me-1 ly co ohanet. Nanynka mela ruce zcela rozpichane a nemiti za riadry psanidko, ktere ji postal Jindra. Kudrna, byla, ,by, snad plakala. Ono ji vSak drgelo skvouci nalade.

U Souekti zali pouze mladi.

V'Sichni ayti Souekovi syni se seall, Dva byli doma pH hospodatsvti a dva melt terneslo, ale vSem se libilo pracovat v poli. 13omahali rociidam. Panimama, .s Hedvou byly jako v kole. Ande muselo vatit.

Vpoli bylo veselo, tak veselo, az jedna radost. Klepani a brouSeni kos ozYvalo se Siroko daleko a sktivani tolik, tolik zpivali.

U BeneSti to bylo obracene a panimama i pH tom spechu nestadila na syny koukat. Vyrnenili si docela rilohy.

Vena byl zanilk1S, a Lojza vesel.

Hvizdal a vitezoslavne se ohli gel na stargiho bratra.

Ted' mela marhinka phrozene zase rad Ai starSiho. Pohlazovala ho po rukavech a namazala mu stlouSt' tvarohu na chle» ba ne g Lojzovi.

Jednou veder, kdy g Ali spat, zastavil se Vena u postele Lojzovy. Ten u g lege; a pogitkatsky si natahoval ridy. Mel,J je jako pfetluCene, vAak cele dny se hrabici ohanet, neni gadna hraeka. Kdyby ta noc byla asPori jednou tak dlouha!

"Vod koho mas tu Panenku Mari! M kovskou?" zeptal se Vena a ukazal za7 chmutene na obrazek.

"Nemusig vedet," tekl Lojza vzpurne, aby nemusel poveciet. Bylo mu pri tom nejak divne — tehle chvile se bal.

"To nejni vod tebe hezkY — Lojzot JO, bych pied tebou nic nezamleel," litostive rekl Verta a obratil se.

"Asi," ucedil Lojza a take se ()brat% a g postel zapraskala.

"Vostatne, dyt' ja to vim" — tekl na sede na posteli zouvaje se, "je to vod

Strana 10 Hedvy. Dyt' ja, to vim, te za ni chodig."

"Tak co se ptag!"

"Mohls mi to ut davno kict — to nejni vod tebe hezky."

"Zo to vod tebt to bylo bratrskST, nararrine. Jen si vzpomen na ten vYlet!"

Oba bratki se odnildeli a po cele tne spolu nemluvili. Maminka to vedela a bylo to pro jeji matekske srdce, jako rdny pest.

"Bone — deti moje," kikala jim v duchu, "cot jste zapomeli, te jste spaly pod jednom srdcem?"

Bylo po tnich. Takove podasi uz nebylo po kolik let jako letos. Slunedko svitilo ustaviene, tak te to krasne schlo a do tYdne se mohlo svatet. Snopy pfenice byly jako centy, sotva je tenske pates tebtiny vyhazovaly a napravy pod nalotenYmi fararni zrovna hekaly.

A piece to sluneeko nebylo tak zle, at by lidi snedlo — ale celovalo pouze jemne a vlahY vettieek potad odnekud pofukoval. Kdyt vezli Benekvi posledni ru tita, povidal Vena otci z nenadani.

"Dybyste me zejtra pustil tatinku, chtel bych se podivat do Plaz na ty Amerikany. Strejeek .112 zase brzy pojede zpatky a me se tak zda, te sem s nima ani nemluvil."

"No co bych te nepustil. Snad se nezcirtiS?" "Pkidu druhY den."

"Tak si di. A to pudet na pkivoz?" U UPlaz je ptivoz —nutno se dal pievesti po prafriu, nebo na lodiece ptes V1tavu, chceme-li na druhou stranu. Po moste je to zachazka.

Maminka syna .vypravila rada. 'Milt), se, to se pobavi. Vedela ut prod ho boll srdce. To to Hedva. Milionska ,obourn hlavy pomatla.

Jak to jenom skonei. Panimarna mela starost. HoSi byli oba jeji a pro oba stejrid matetske srdce bolelo.

Kdyt se Vena vratil z Plaz byla nedele a hogi ye Smetanove Lhote potadali obtinky.

Paneeku, takove obtinky to jo nejaka slava!

VEST N — WEST, TEXAS

Ph tech obtinkach zase Hedvika byla prvni. Zase jela na, vote a zdvihala klasovY venec, zase byla kralovnou core te slavnosti.

Kluci Benekvi ad potad jeAte spolu nemluvili, svorne to prosadili a svorne fledvu do tebkin vyzdvihli -- at panimamu nad tim slzy polily.

Bote svatY a dobrotivY, jak to dopadne?

Veder byla muzika.

Holky mely vettinou nova Aaty, alespon Nanynka ano. Pokne, kartounove ratove kvetovane se Atiskem navrch. Ty yam ji byla jako malt' polni zvoneeek.

Hedva mela ty modre od leta a Mhotide pies ni tahlo, te by se byla mohla lope ptistrojit a Hrabadice zase povidala, te to nevi co by to vyvadelo. Ono si k tomu venire tibetove taty!

NekterYm to bylo male, jinYm mod.

U muziky bylo pino chasy zdejti i piespolni.

Muzika hrala at se hospoda trasla a a Jelinkovi meli prace, sotva to zastali.

Hedva sedela u maminky na lavici a divala se jenom po Lojzovi. Dries mu to tak nevyliertelne sluSelo libil se ji at hrima. Byla vtecka nadtena.

Vedela uz, te o jeji lasce vi domlu vili se predeveirem na zahrade a zpedetili to nekolika sladkyrni netnYmi hubiekami.

Lojzek ji povedel o svYch starostech a svetil se ji, k rnusi promluvit s otcem.

Chce vedet kolik mu cla, podilu, aby se mohl rortiodnout co poenou.

"NejlepSi dyby nam postavili chalupu a deli par strycha poll, tak bysme si pomohli — no rad?"

Hedve to bylo jedno. S Panem Bohem jak bude Lojza chtit. Tieba piljde do vlastniho, bude do podruti -- to ji je volne — jenom kdyt bude s Lojzou.

Nebo kdyt si vzpomene, te by ho mela poptat Mid a sama se s nim rozejit, zda se, te zhyne.

Pri te muzice ji bylo tak pekne. Kdyt nehrali, byl Lojza mezi chasou a ona bud' sedela u maminky, nebo chodila s deveaty v kole a zpivala s nimi.

Maio ktere balky umely tolik zpivat jako lhotecke. Ty znaly pisnieek na tucty a katdou peknou.

Deveata viji vence a vozy , jdou stejne oveneeny..Chrpy, maky a koukole, klasy a belostne kopretiny.

Ve stredu dne, 9. tali 1959 "Ale main," volal potom a zdvihal tuplak vysoko nad hiavu. "Mam a rairtfr platit! Pani muzikanti pite a vy mrzaci z gruntt na me se divejte co dovedu.

Ted' dam piipit nejlepvi holce ze vsi a uvidite."

Ph tom Sel ,s tuplakem k Hedve a nabizel ji: "Tu mat pij !"

Hedva se lekla a zbledla.

"Dekuju nechci Toniku."

"Co ty te nechcet? Pij — povidam sice to na tebe vieju!"

Hedva se ttasla, ale vzdor ji podpalil jako oheri.

"Nechci," pohodila hlavou, "abys yedel nech.ci!"

"Cote — ty te nebude g vode me pit!

Tak ty " Ruka s tuplakem se zvedla a Hedva si obema rukama zahradila hiavu.

Byla ptesvedeena, te bude miti pivo na Satech. A le v tom se zakmitly dve silt ruce a Tonik je strten na cad. Slo to tak prudce, te mu tuplak z ruky vyletel a jeho obsar pokropil vSecky tetky co na lavici sedely.

"NechaS ji na pokoji? Ze ne — ja, to naueim!" Lojza drtel Tonika za krk a cloumal jim.

"Ja te naudim! Hedva nejni pro tebe ty — --" "Ven s nim," kriceli nekteti, ale jini se sapali na Lojzu.

Videli jste uz vesnickou pranici?

Malem jste se mohli na ni podivat.

Hnedle bylo nekolik chasnikii v jednom chumlu. Paste a sklenice vS'ecko .610 vzhiiru.

Nanynka se dala do pldee a panimaina Benekva div neklesla.

Jelinek byl dobrak a slaboch, nevedel si rady.

Tonik se uvolnil a skodil ke stolu. Stal tam zpola vypitY — toho se zmocnil. Byl zutivY a oei mel krvi zakalene, straSnY vztek i alkohol v nem ptisobily jako hotici olej.

Zabit Lojzu! Zabit ho.

Ruka s pullitrem se zdvihla a stragnou silou se rozpkahla najednou ITS'ak je zukivec napaden z ezadu.

Vena Bene gtv stal nad nim jako mstitel — ho na, zem a jak mu sazel tak mu sazel. Jen to bubnovalo jak mu ptikladal a Lojza ut to byl a pomahal jim, Byli v pkesile, zdej‘Si chasa s k nim ptidala a pomohal jim. Byli v piesile, zdej'Ai chasa se k nim pkidala a pomohla aspori dveke otevtit a Tonika vyhodit.

Bene gove byli vitezi.

Vena se uchYlil zase do fistrani, ale Loj za zdvihal hrde hiavu, distal na sale a poruail: "Pani muzikanti hrajte!"

Labor Day Sept. 7 was Labor Day. The idea of setting apart the first Monday in September in honor of American working men and women was first conceived' in 1882

by Pater J. McGuire, then president of the United Carpenters and Jointers of America, and an active leader in the Knights of Labor, the forerunner of the Al' of L. The first Labor Day celebration — a parade and outdoor festival— took place on Monday, Sept 5, 1882 in Now York City. Labor Day, 1959, sees the American worker's standard of living at the highest level in history and he and ice Hrs wielding a powerful influence in the nation's council — but it was not always so. The bitter and often violent struggle by the trade unions to improve wages and achieve the eight-hour day went on for many years. Yet today the average factory worker earns about $85 a wick and works a little less than 40 hours, while one sixth of the workers have a work week of 85 hours or less. ) '

The hail ravaged a section of formic: nd about 10 miles long and two miles wide. About 75 farms were affected and of these 30 to 40 lost their complete cotton. crops, said Henry Teplicek, farmer and president of the First National Bank of Rowea.

Teplicek said few if any farmers had crop insurance. It was believed to be the worst hail storm in the area in 40 years.

Naming Of Beneficiaries The Insured's Wife The designation of the insured's wife as beneficiary in a life insurance policy should be a relatively simple procedure.

However, if the wife is not designated in the proper manner, subsequent change in the marital status without concurrent beneficiary change might lead to litigation over the proceeds after the insured's death.

It is generally agreed that if the insured designates his wife beneficiary by her full name together with the relationship, there is unlikely to be any doubt of his intention. The phrases "my wife," "wife," or similar expressions preceding or following the full name have been held to be descriptive only. Where the insured has, however, made the designation with only a 'descriptive phrase, a person who claims as wife is entitled to recover if her relations to The Texas Department of Public Safe- the insured entitle 'her to the rights of ty announced the new 1960 motor ve- a wife in his. state. hicle inspection sticker will be availA practical question will often arise able to Texas motorists as of Sept. 1.

New Members!

When the husband gives his wife's Christian name together with her maiden surname and his own surname as the "full name" in the beneficiary designation, there is less chance of his intention being misconstrued. Should he later wish a different beneficiary, he could exclude a change (if he has reserved such right) in the manner prescribed by the policy.

I wish to thank all of you for the splendid cooperation and contribution given to our Queen contests. Without your faithful support and hard work, these contests would never materialize.

We have imany classes all of which you can recommend to anyone.

He tried to explain. On the way home he and serveral of his young married friends stopped in a hat score to help one of them select a hat. They all kidded the proprietor about his prices. He became a little miffed, and offered his best hat free to any of them who could swear that he had not kissed any abet woman since his marriage. The reason for his laughing was that none of hia friends would swear to that and claim the hat.

His wife started to smile, but, just for a moment. "And why" she demanded, "didn't you bring home that hat?"

District II Youth Meeting At Tahauya Sunday,, August 30, the Youth of District. II, held its picnic and activities contests on the Raiich of the Boy Scouts of America, Camp Tahauya, near Bel ton, Texas.

The Camp itself consisting of more that 100 buildings, scattered among the rustic scenery of woods, rocky hills and lake on the Lampasas River, was the scene of a wonderful outing of the District youth as well as adult membership, visitors and friends. Besides swimming facilities in a clean and cool pool, in another part of the Camp a lake invited boating enthusiasts as well as the rod and reel fans. from a well stocked lake.

Around 10:30, cars began turning into the Campsite, where registration was taking place under the huge liveoak trees on the grounds, near the mess hall.

Picnic hampers, boxes, bags, all were being carried out of cars into the large dining area, where they were to be laid out for the noon family style meal.

Everyone was comfortably dressed for a good tiMe climbing the rocky terrain to the various contests and against the sun.

District II President, Brother Calvin Chervenka, called us all together by ringing the large brass bell posted outside of the Mess Hall for the Flag Raising Ceremonies, and the Pledge to the Flag. Two Explorer Scouts, Weldon Matson and Charles Stark, hoisted Old Glory on the tall flagpole, while pretty Sister Dorothy Hoelsher led, us in the Pledge to the Flag. A few pictures were, taken during, these ceremonies.

The good sisterhood of District II, laid out a feast to feed a small army. Such delicious food as only our sisters know how to serve. Everyone ate to his heart's content, seconds allowed, and large quantities of iced-tea for the thirsty was kept well stocked during the day.

As soon as the food was cleared away a short business meeting of the District was held by Brother Chervenka, where officers of the District, as well as those of the Supreme Lodge were recognized, as well as officers present from other sister lodges. Brother Dennis Bartek of the Supreme Lodge of the RVOS took a bow as did Brother John Trlica, officer from the SVPS organization. Bro. Chervenka welcomed everyone to Camp Tahauya and wished them a good time.

Brother Chervenka, then introduced the Lodge Princesses of District II who were present. They were: Sister Dorothy Hoelsher of Lodge No. 24 and her escort; Sister Sandra Mikulas of Lodge No. 47, and sister Carolyn Cuba of Lodge No. 29.

The Contest rules were briefly reviewed for the benefit of the organizers present, and clarification on just how the co-worker between organizers and Lodge Princesses gave them their points for the Title and Crown of Queen of District IL which contest will end the later part of September, and the Coronation Dance will be held on October 11, at the Star Hall in Seaton, where during the presentation of the Lodge Princesses, the Queen and King of District II shall be announced. Brother Cervenka urged Lodge Organizers to get their princesses elected and working for new insurance prospects from which they get their "points". He reiterated that the District Orgainzer, Brotlher Mikollaj and the District Youth Leader Sister Clara Hejl would work out the details of the Coronation Dance.

Brother Cervenka thanked the Taylor Lodge for their invitation to hold their Coronation Dance in their Hall at their dance on Oct. 18. Since the Seaton Star Hall offered to sponsor the Coronation Dance on Oct. 11, the membership voted to have the Coronation dance at the Seaton Hall. Sister Hejl anounced that the Youth Achievement Day would be held on that same date (Oct. 11) at the Star Hall, in the afternoon starting at 2:00 p.m. and urges the Youth to prepari their entries into the different categories. She will have a more detailed report in the Vestnik on this phase of the program. She likewise invited everyone to come to Seaton on that date and support this great Youth affair.

Editor Hosek stressed advertising this Coronation in the Vestnik well in advance of the date, with a letter in each week's issue from District II. District President Cervenka introduced the Scouts who acted as guides and guards for the youth on this day. They were: Weldon Matson, Charles Stark, Chuck Hofstettler, and Hi Cowan. (Hope the spelling is correct). He also thanked Mr. Matson, the Camp Supervisor in b phalf of District II, for the use of this wonderful campsite.

This brought the Meeting to a close.

Sister Clara Hejl, with her crew of assistants, then took to the swimming pool where the first Contest was to be held. Meanwhile, she hade her fishermen fishing away for that phase of the contest, and the boats ready for the

Fttrana 17 boating under the supervision of one of the Scouts of Tahauya.

The swimming pool was built in a creekbed, cemented, painted, and shaded by tall trees. Nearby were the huge water tanks and dressing rooms for the girls and boys. Around the pool under the trees, rock benches were constructed out of the native material which abounds the campsite.

How the youngsters splashed and enjoyed themselves in the water. Tiny tadpoles took to the water like ducks.

Sister Hejl and Sister Hoelscher, divided the girls into two divisions by age for the swim across the pool and back in sets of three each. The winners in these divisions received colored ribbons which they would turn in for their cash prizes. Then the boys were separated into two divisions, by age for the swimming and ,diving. It was very enjoyable to watch these youngsters strive for perfection.

After the contest, one of the scout life g uards remained on duty while we all returned to the Mess Hall located under the shady trees, where Brothers Frank Spaniel and Fr. Hejl were setting up the 50 yard dash lanes. Again the age groups were sent running with all their might for winners and runner-up.

Then the Fishing contest over on the east side of the large campsite where the youngsters proudly pulled out of the water strings of fine perch and cat. while some of the older brothers cast for bass from the shoreline. This lake has a lot of moss in the bottom which makes it cool and shady, and it is teeming with fish. On a floating dock, these youngsters were pulling them out one after another. One 12 year old lad caught a big perch, which snapped his line and ran away with his fishhook. Since he didn't bring an extra, his enthusiasm was doubly dampened by putting him out of the running as well as losing a fine fish. On one side of this floating dock were anchored many boats which were to be used in the boat races.

Again, on the hillside under the shade of tall cedar trees, the campsite has an ampitheater made of native rock, rows upon rows of benches to the top of the hill, with the lake as a backdrop, where these scouts can have their ceremonies as well as any plays etc., they may desire. Besides the Mess Hall, the Supervisors Home at the entrance, the Health Station and cabins, the water system itself is tremendous. There are drinking fountains on the ground with ice water, hot and cold running water in the kitchen, clean water for the swimming pool,

Strana 13 as well as other facilities where water is so necessary.

The sun was slowly turning westward, which reminded us from far, to think of home. So we left this happy place with its busy youngsters, finishing up thetur contest activities, to head for home.

The Editor and wife wish to thank District II, for their invitation to be with them on this day which was spent in Nature, among such fine folks and their offsprings. They are a clever lot of childen, game, happy and good sports. The older n4Nnbers who !didn't care to trot. over the campsite, sat in the cool Mess Hall to watch Sister Driska's color slides of her recent trip to Europe where she visited several countries as well as the World's Fair in Brussels.

To the Princesses in District II, the Editor and wife wish lots of luck, for there will be a certain amount of hard work with steering prospects to your lodge organizers for your "points" to be the District's Queen, but in the end, you will agree that it was fun also.

Again, thanks for youtr invitation, and best wishes for a successful Coronation Dance at Star Hall in Seaton, on Oct. 11.

The Editor and wife )

LODGE POKROK NO. 84, DALLAS Dear Members and Friends: The weekend of August 29 and 30 will long be remembered by the members of Lodge No. 84 as a most memorable one in the history of our Lodge. It was then that the Annual Anniversary Dance of Pokrok No. 84 was celebrated.

The hall was festively decorated with streamers of red, white and blue crepe paper and with miniature American rings. Those who had a hand in the decorating can be justly proud of their beautiful accomplishments.

The gala celebration got underway at the Saturday night dance when Chuck Perkins and his Bavarian Playboys provided enjoyable dancing music.

On Sunday the festivities began with a delicious dinner prepared by the skilled hands of some of our most able male members. They are each to be complimented for a job will done. The result of their morning's work of preparation can be called a "gourmet's delight". There were charming hostesses hustling about

V2S TN

K. WEST, TEXAS

to attend to the great number of attendants.

Later in the afternoon, a short series of after-dinner speeches began with a few introductory words from our Lodge President, Mr. Sid Pokladnik. Mr. Edward L. March, President of the Supreme Lodge, rendered a touching and inspiring speech which held great meaning for both the young and the old members Of Lodge 84. Mr. H. P. Kucera, City Attorney, also honored us by a brief talk. The guest speaker, Mr. N. A. Bickley, Assistant City Attorney, offered the membership a few well-chosen words about our Lodge and about our city and country.

Following the speeches was a most delightful program given by our youth and teen-agers. Mrs. Charles Nemec accompanied the precious little "darlings" of our lodge during their opening drill as they presented the state flag. The youngsters were expertly led by two teen age members, Betty Staglik, our lovely District Princess, and Juanita Janousek, our very active Teen-Age Queen. A second group of slightly older children also performed for us, presenting the flag of the United States. Then While the soft, hum of our beloved Czech antheac -Kde Domov Muj -- filled the hall with solemn respect to the old country, a flag of our beloved Czechoslovakia was presented to the Lodge by our TeenAge Division. Upon the presentation of the flag, the teen-age choir proudly sang the words of the Czech anthem.

Mr. Sid Pokladnik accepted the flag and in behalf of the entire lodge, offered heart-felt thanks. George Nemec, a fellow teen-ager and seminarian, recited a. touching poem. Following this, Sherrie Pokladnik entertained with a classical piano selection. After her perpormance, the Adamcik Sisters played two selections on their accordions. Karen Koncak rendered a piano solo. Upon the completion of her number, I also played the piano. Last but certainly not least were the two very talented chidren Johnny and Justine Mare Pokladnik, who presented a snappy tap dance. The finale of the program was the song rendered by the girls of our Teen-Age choir. All ended with added words of thanks to our wonderful youth director, Mrs. Bessie Petr, who worked so hard to put on such a pleasurable program, and to her assistant director, Mrs. Carlyn Ondrusek. The director of our Teen Age choir, Mr. Frank Henzen, is to he greatly admired for his work uith us.

The teen-agers are especially grateful to all the above mentioned and to every one else who helped to make this anniversary' the special thing it was. It

Strana 19 means a great deal to our Teen-Age Division, perhaps even more than can be realized, to be able to dress in the colorful and traditional garb of our Czech ancestry and to be able to learn and to sing the age old Czech songs so dear to the hearts of every Czechoslovakian.

The weekend celebration came to a close Sunday night at a dance featuring Wesley (Gus) Herean and his orchestra.

The anniversary dance was truly a great success and there is no doubt that; he anniversary program will be in the memories of everyone who attended for weeks to come.

Respectfully submitted by Your Secretary-Reporter Jerry Ann Urban Teen-Ago Division • eis • ( YOUTH CLUB LODGE 133 Sao Antonio, Texas Dear Readers, This is just a reminder to all the meirqbers of the San Antonio Youth Club Lodge 1.33.

Dear Friends: Our Camp Tahauya' meeting turned out to be a big success. The children had a wonderful time. That is what we are working for. It is too bad that more interest is not shown by those who should care the most. I was disappointed ill

rang. 2 the crowd. Maybe next year there will be more interest shown and more of you will come. I hope. We wanted the children to have a good time and I can assure you that those who came certainly had it. Most or them commented when they were being paid, "this is the first time I have ever been paid to have a good tirDe." .So by such comments I know they enjoyed themselves. We would like to interest more of you in this type of entertainment for our youngsters; so that our money, which is allotted to our youth fund, could be (listributed more evenly among our lodges.

If you notice the prize list you see that most of the children are from-Lodges 24, 29, and 47.

This is our young Sister Sandra Mikulas that has been chosen to represent our Lodge as Princess in the coming Queen Contest of District II to be held at Seaton Lodge Sunday, Oct. 11.

Editor's Note: Thanks for the invitat3on but !Sunday the 13th I will be at the opening of the new Dallas Hall. Hope you willl have a very successful picnic. ) e 4, • ( CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS Dear Brothers and Sisters: In our last Lodge Meeting which was held August 9, 1959, besides discussing our regular business, we also discussed the problems of our next District Seven Meeting, which will be held at Lodge No. 56 on September 30, at the Sokol Hall on Kostohrys Road in Corpus Christi, Texas.

The Hall is located one-half mile south past the Lexington Boulevard traffic light recently installed.

A committee was selected, which includes Sister Libbie Peter, Brother Roy Peal and Brother Frank Veselka. These people will ask others to help them, so please do not refuse them if they approach you, as there will be a lot to do. All of this work is done voluntarily.

I have been requested to write to the Vestnik and ask our members, not only of our own lodga, but of the entire District Seven Lodge, to please help us by bringing whatever they can for the kitchen such e s kolaches, pies, cakes, etc.

In the last District Seven Meeting at Jourdanton on. April 26, it was mentioned that the Treasury had only about $30. So, it has been agreed that 25 per cent of the profits, if any, shall go into the treasury of our District this time.

The above named committee met Aug. 21st and this is what they worked out: The District Meeting shall begin at 10:00 a.m. sharp. All of the speakers shall make their speeches distinct and short, so that we shall end our meeting at noon.

Dinner will be served at 12:00 noon at $1.00 per plate — consisting of barbecued Chicken and all the trimmings.

After dinner comes the Youth Program. All Youth participating in this program will receive tickets for a free dinner. They will not be given cash prizes as before, because of lack of funds.

At 5:00 p.m. supper will be served also at $1.00 per plate. The crowning of a Queen at the Princesses Ball is planned for the night if an Orchestra can be obtained. Otherwise, the Coronation will be held in the afternoon, after the Youth Program.

VESTN1K— WEST, TEXAS As of now, I have not received information from our president Brother Veselka whether or not he has succeeded in finding a band.

We are cordially inviting all of you to come to the Sokol Hall in Corpus Christi, Texas, on September 20th, 1959.

Fraternally yours, John Stasa, Secretary • eto • t TO ALL THE LODGES OF OUR THIRD DISTRICT In checking over our books, as treasurer of District III, I find that some of our 21 lodges have not paid their dues to the district for the current year.

All of us that have attended any of the district meeting realize how important these district meetings are for the promotion of friendship and good will among the membership of our own district as well as other districts. Yet, no organization can successfully operate without some financial support. Being our main financial source, and even though these dues are only a token, with all 21 lodges contributing their part, they are quite adequate. In most cases it is merely a case of over-sight, so I would like to ask that the secretary or treasurer of each lodge be reminded to see if their lodge has paid up.

As important as it is that we receive these payments, there is one thing that is even more important. The most important ingredient for the success of our district meeting is the friendship and good will of all our 21 lodges which can be shown only by the attendance of representatives or members of all lodges at our meetings. So, if for any reason your lodge does not see fit to contribute their part of the financial responsibility, do not feel that you are not welcome at these meetings.

Let's make our next meeting the best that we have had so far.

Fraternally yours, Alvin Nesuda Treasurer, Dist. 3 4, • S/ovonic Benevolent Order of the State of Texas (S.P.J.S.T.)

For the Membership of SPJST District II Calvin C. Chervenka, Pres. ) • 40 • RECOLLECTIOKS CONCERNING DIST. II YOUTH ENCAMPMENT AT ;AMP TAHUAYA Dear Members: SPJST Distkict II held its Youth Encampment Day on Sunday, August 30, 1959, at camp Tahuaya, the Heart 0' Texas Counil of the Boy Scouts of America Camp locate'd on the Ealapasas River near Belton.

Brother and Sister Hc:,•ek were axiang, the early arrivals at the camp and have already reported some and will no doubt report more about the meeting in the Veetnik. Sister Heji and Brother Boudny will also report on specific phases and activities of the day. My report then is not intended to be a complete report but will only cover certain of my recollections of the meeting for the benefit of those who were unable to attend.

The reading of no report, however complete is may be, of course cannot substitute for one's presence at Cam). Tahuaya on Sunday, Aug. 30; so id; hoped that even more members will etend the next District II activity.

The first of approximately 2611 District members, their families and victors started arriving about 9:30 a.m. acid• the early arrivals were greeted at the camp office by the resident Camp Ranger, Mr. Bertil Mattson. Brother Ben

Strum 24 Mikolaj began registering those in attendance at 10:30 and the Flag Raising Ceremony was held at 11 a.m. with Dottie Hoelscher of Cyclone Lodge 24 and Explorer Scouts Weldon Mattson and Charles Stark of the Belton Post performing the ceremony. Those Scouts were joined later in the day by Belton Explorer Scouts "Chuck" Hufstutler and "H"-ie Cowan to assist in the guiding and lifeguarding activities.

Many of those present spent the rest of the morning taking tours to inspect some of the many camp facilities and sights such as the swimming pool, natural springs, amphitheater, trading post, lake, boat docks, Chisholm trail,old mill, rifle range, and Boy Scout Camp sites.

Several persons got an early start fishing in the lake and by noon had nice catches of crap p ie and catfish. Although there were many nice strings of fish caught, I do not believe anyone was successful in catching any of the 5-lb. bass which were seen around the boat dock.

Sister Frances and Brother Emil Hejl along with other helpers, were busy in the dining hall up until the noon serving time preparing about 30 gallons of iced tea and arranging the large amount of food which had been brought by all the families. The family style buffet dinner was served from 12 noon to 1 p.m. and was greatly enjoyed by those present. Brother J. F, Chupick, SPJST Supreme Lodge Secretary, gave the invocation before the meal.

After dinner, a business session was held from 1:30 to 2.30 p.m. During this business session, the attending princesses of the local lodges in District II Queen Contest and their escorts were introduced and plans were made for the District II Queen Coronation Ball. Both the Taylor Lodge 29 and Seaton Lodge 47 had extended invitations and bids for the event to be held at their lodges; but it was finally decided by the membership to hold the event on the afternoon and night of Sunday, Oct. 11, 1959, at the Seaton SPJST Lodge No. 47 Star Hall. District II Youth Director Clara Heil and District II Organizer Ben Mikolaj, were named to work with Lodge 47 in making preparations for the event which will probably include a short business session, if necessary, Youth Achievement Contests, supper and a dance. Everyone please keep this date in mind.

Our District II Secretary, Brother A. L. Boudny, will report in greater detail on the business meeting and attendance in the minutes which will be printed in the Vestnik. A copy of the Resolu-

V tlS T N z K ®- WEST, TEXAS tion of Thanks to the Boy Scouts of America for the use of Camp Tahuaya is printed elsewhere in this issue of the Vestnik.

The afternoon was filled with various recreation and entertainment activities.

The young people of course headed for the swimming pool where they swam and some participated in swimming and diving contests. Many people stayed in the dining hall to view the projections of the color slide pictures which Sister Theresa Driska had taken on a tour of Czechoslovakia and other European countries. Sister Driska narrated the films which were very beautiful and greatly enjoyed by everyone who stayed to see them.

About 4 p.m. the young people were persuaded to leave the pool to participate in the 50 yard dash, volley ball throw, and other contests. While some took a last tour to see a typical Boy Scout Adirondak Camp Site, the chapel, health lodge, and Black Springs, the others went directly to the lake to watch the boating and fishing contests.

Just about everyone was at the lake for the finals of the boating contest which proved to be probably the most exciting and entertaining for both the participants and spectators. A 111/2-inch catfish was the largest fish caught and it won the rod and reel prize for the young man who caught it. Sister Hejl will report fully in the Vestnik on the various contest events and their winners.

After the last of the iced tea, which had been enjoyed throughout the afternoon, had been consumed and all the prize money (approximately $50,00) had been paid out to the contest winners the last of the District II members and visitors departed for home at '6 p.m.

Although it was obvious that the encampment had been a success and was enjoyed by old and young alike, the proof of this success was demonstrated by comments such as the following by the youngsters as they received their prize money: "Who ever heard of getting paid for having such fun." and "Can we come back here again next year?"

In behalf of the youth of the district and for everyone else who enjoyed the day, I want to thank all of those who served on the committees or participated in any other way in making the meeting such a successful one. I also want to thank the parents for bringing their children to permit them to have this enjoyable time. To those who could not or chose not to attend, I can only express my, regrets and hope that you will be able to attend our next meeting

Wednesday, September 9, 1959 which will be the Youth Achievement Day and Queen's Coronation on Sunday, Oct. 11, at Seaton Star Hall.

In conclusion, I want to thank everyone for being such "good scouts" in every way on this day, and I hope that our meeting at Camp Tahuaya will prove itself to have been of lasting mutual benefit in some way to both our SPJST and our hosts, the Boy Scouts of America.

Fraternally, Calvin C. Claervenka President, SPJST Dist. II ) • •To • (

4V.kr-f2.1r2,4 LODGE 84. DALLAS SOFTBALL TEAM Dear Readers: The above group of Softball Players are all members of Lodge Pokrok No, 84, Dallas, Texas, who represented our SPJST Fraternal Order in the Dallas City Commercial Softball Leagues.

This group of players had a most successful season as the won TWO League Championships and two trophies; one for winning their Wednesday night "Northern League, and the other for winning the Friday night "Ranger League." In the League Championship playoffs the team defeated Ling Electric by a score of 5-to-1, and St. Pius X by a scare of 4-to-1, before bowing out in the quarterfinals by a score of 2-tol, to the Southwestern Bell Telephone Company team. Had the team won this game they would have won another trophy and would have been assured of at least a fourth place finish in the City. In their final game of the • season, they will play the SPJST-Sokol fraternal team from Fort Worth, Texas, a game that both teams have been looking forward to all season.

All of the team members and the bat boys were awarded warm-up jackets for having such a successful season. The team will be honored with a "Steak Supper" at Winfrey Point on White Rock Lake on Saturday night, Sept. 12th.

The host will be Willie and Carolyn Ondrusek, who promised the team this

Wednesday, September 9, 1959' if they won their League Championship and win they did —Two League Championships1 The team, wishes to extend their thanks to their Mother Lodge, Pokrok Dallas No. 84, to the Supreme Lodge in Temple, to our good Editor 'Brother Hosek, to all of their wives and friends and loyal supporters who so faithfully came out to all of the games.

The team wishes to extend their thanks also to the following sponsors: Adameik's Appliance and Auto Supply Store; Art Sheet Metal and Model Works; Columbia Meat Packing Company; F. and W. Drug Store; Gus Jones Thriftee Food Market; Otto Janousek Motor Company; Kutil's Upholstry; Marek's Auto Service; Mary's Beauty Shop; Rudolph's Market; Ross Avenue Ignition Service; Rejcek Brothers FixIt Shop; John Sykora Contractors; SPJST Supreme Lodge of Temple, Texas; and our SPJST Lodge Pokrok No. 84, Dallas, Texas, who helped the team financially for the softball team's shirts and the lettering on the uniforms.

We sincerely thank each and every one of you who helped the team in any way this past season. We hope that all of the above sponsors will again help sponsor our team again, next season. It was only through everyone's united support and cooperation that made it possible to field a softball team this season and we assure all of our members and friends that we are deeply grateful for your support. Fraternally yours, Ben Jarma, Team Mgr. Jody Rejcek, Asst. Mgr. Ted Dusek, Team Captain • a • SPJST SOFTBALL TEAM, LODGE 84 Dallas, Texas Dear Readers: Though the scores of our games with the Ft. Worth Sokol Team, played , last Friday night, August 28, have already been posted, I felt I should add a little co l or or facts to the game in our behalf.

Considering the fact that we had played our last game three weeks prior to this game and we did not practice at all, we did give a very poor exhibition in the first game of the night. I believe the score was 11.-to-1, in favor of the Sokol team, as we committed several errors which paved the way for unearned runs — this was bad.

In the second game of the evening, the two pitchers, or all-stars from the Ft. Worth City Commercial League really set us back on our heels and shut us out whereas, Grady Garrett, our pitcher who allowed three hits and one earned run

V2S TN fIC— WEST, TEXAS

really deserved to win, but our batters just couldn't get the big hit when we needed to drive in the runs as we had several scoring opportunities. With two away and bases loaded, last of the 7th and Old Casey struck out that's how it ended.

We knew' that the Fort Worth Sokol team would be laying for us and our suspicious were confirmed when we drove up and counted some 25 or 26 players and half of these players had different colored uniforms from the ones worn by the regular Sokol players.

Though they drafted several players, every player played very good ball not taking anything away from their team, and they deserved to win. We realy enjoyed the hospitality and courtesy extended to all of our players, our wives and a few of the rooters who came all the way to Fort Worth to see the game.

I must say that their team had a very large turnout of fans at the game, and this is very good for the morale of the home team. Some of the fans told me they were there to see us get beat, and this they did see. I must say thay

Strana 25 were all a very swell group of sports and we enjoyed meeting a lot of them.

Though the Ft. Worth team had many good ball players, there were about 3 of the players who I feel deserve special recognition, and perhaps several more, but I do not remember all their names. First of all, Frankie Milan who pitched a very good game against us in the opener, his brother and team manager Jerry Milan who made .r uveral good catches in centerfield and made two throws to snuff out our baserunners which could easily have changed the complection in the last game, he also stared at bat as I know he had at least three or four hits which contributed to their offensive power. The third Sokol player, Bobby McMillan, their short fielder who played a very good game defensively at shortstop. A lot of these fellows are members of the SPJST in Fort Worth. Several of the other boys looked good, including Bobby Heath, who pitched for one of the Ft. Worth Cha/m4pion ship teams in the State Playoffs.

We enjoyed the games very much and we are looking forwa-•:

Helen Krutilek Reporter of Executive Board r • •t SOKOL ZIZKA & LODGE NO. 130 The Board of Directors welcomes this opportunity to commend the initiative and the resourcefulness, the loyalty and the patience displayed by unit members in the manner in which they are handling the various preparations for our opening dedication. We are progressing with great strides in the diffi cult job of presenting a memorable program.

Since the building has acquired most of the finishing touches, the a tornenturn seems to be faster than ever. Turnout for children's drilling classes this past week has been terrific, and with the

Wednesday, September 9, 1959 happy faces of the youngsters there along with those of the still hard-working grownups, there is no getting around the fact that this big, new building is now the center of all activities. Members now meet here to confer or to note the progress being made.

The building itself has taken on an air of dignity and impressiveness. This is truly the fulfillment of a goal we set out to attain.

It must be understood that this dedication cannot be a success without the help of all. As time draws close to our deadline, we believe this is a good thought for all members to keep in mind. The cooperation and support of every member are the keynotes to upholding the ideals of our organization.
