FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK corrected by a regular medical check-up, What You Should and by following the advice of doctors.

In recent years, however, many insurance campanies have opened up the Know About Life privilege of insurance to many to whom it previously was denied.

Insurance Your occupation too, plays an imporIN ORDER TO EXPLAIN IT TO YOUR UNINSURED FRIENDS CONTINUATION OF OUR RECEUT ARTICLE Another form is the endowment. This is written for a specified period, and carries enough built-in investment so that, at the end of the period, the face amount is payable to the insured. However, like all other types of insurance, the face amount is payable to the beneficiary in the event of death before the maturity date.

My purpose in writing these few paragraphs is simply to remove the "mysteries" of insurance and show them for what they are — special words, easily broken down. I also hope to clear up some of the misconceptions that people have about insurance. Let me show you what I mean.

The need for insurance protection should not be based on particular lump sitail chosen haphazardly, but rather should be considered as a source of income.

Because we are unable to predict our future with certainty, it is well to keep insurance payments flexible. The agent or field underwriter should evaluate your insurance from time to time — usually about once a year, and particularly when financial circumstances change.

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE "I pledge Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands. One Nation under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all." tection has diminished, but the need for income has grown, such as during his retirement years.

As I have stated, the benefits are payable to those you wish to protect, in the event of an untimely death, or to you, the insured, for your retirement. Therefore, you can see that the insurance benefits can be arranged so that you no longer have "to die to win", but rather that the money is available during the time of need. The only way you can lose is not to buy insurance.

tant role, as it would be unfair to charge the same premiums for a person doing office work as for someone whose livelihood is: fraught with danger.

Other factors that enter into the risk charge are residency, personal habits and family.history.. If a person has a long history of illness which can be transmitted by heredity, he :ray find it more difficult to get insurance, particularly at standard rates.

That's the insurance story from the inside. As you can see, there is no great mystery about it. You can and should see your agent, and find out the many advantages offered by a properly established life insurance program.

Time Again For Car Inspection

Life Companies Are Active In Lease . Financing Lease financing has become an important investment channel of the life insurance companies of this country and about $2,5000i3 O00,000 is currently invested by them in various types of property under rental contract, according to the Institute of Life Insurance.

Of this, well over $2,000,000,000 is commercial or industrial financing and over $400,000,000 in rental housing.

Many thousands of rental contracts are now held by the life companies, almost entirely the product of the past 15 years. At the close.of World War II, less than $150,000,000 of property was held by the life companies for rental purposes, largely the first experitnents in rental housing and sore small commercial investments in states that did not restrict this type of financing. It was during the 1940's that the investment laws of some of the key states, including New York, were revised to make such investments premissible and by now many life companies have some funds at work on this basis.

A large part of the lease financing is improved real estate, but thereis alSo a considerable volume of miscellaneous items, including boxcars, locomotives, fleets of salesmen's cars and ships.

There are many types included. A office in Omaha, for instance, is under lease to the U.S. government, totally finD need and owned by a life company.

Several thousand freight cars and diesel locomotives are on lease to •one of the big eastern railroads by another life co-a-party.

One life company has about 2,000 salesmen's cars on lease to several of the nation's big industrial and merchandising firms.

A giant container manufacturing concern now rents several of its factories from a life insurance com pany instead of owning and operating its own plants.

A big new shopping center, one of the largest in the country, will open in New Jersey at the start of the new year, involving 60 stores with a sales potential of $200,000,000 annually — ownership being with a life insurance company in New England.

Several of the country's largest housing projects, coast to coast, are owned by life companies, large-scale lease operations being handled by them directly.

One of the big Great Lakes steamships is owned by a mid-western life

company and one lease to a shipping firm.

A whole business district in one of the country's big metropolitan 'ienters was rebuilt by one life company and is in part operated 113 a gigantic real estate rental operation.

Jet conversion for one of the major airlines was materially eased by a rental program, financed by two life companies jointly, covering the engines to be installed in the new planes.

Several of the national chain store systems have moved over to a store rental basis, totally or in large part, with life companies having assumed title to the properties or even building them in some cases.

Several department stores now rent their store buildings from life companies.

A research laboratory, a parts depot for a farm factory, a shoe store, a chain of truck service branches, a telephone exchange building, a bottling works — those are a few samples of other lease financing projects handled by life companies over the past few years. £ • t

mportant Notice The problem has come up recently, and it may come up in other cities where there are two or more SPJST Lodges; that of our Youth Clubs in both lodges work together a little more closely so that their activities do not interfere with each ocher, so they can visit and support each other's projects.

The Lodge 92 Youth Club goes on record that it will work with Lodge 154 Youth Club in this respect.

Let's all be friendly and work closely we together to our mutual benefit as v, all belong to this great fraternity of ours.

Let's show it to the ones on the outside.

There is of course, one way in which you could study in the United States without having your own funds, namely if you were able to win a fellowship as an exchange student. In that case, of course, you will have- to promise to return to the country of your nationality or last residence at the completion of your course. You would not be permitted to adjust your status and to remain here, as other students can, if their quota is open. ) • 4 •

StuWark My Way Through College?

QUESTION: I want to come to the United States as a student. I have a very high scholastic record, but no money. Is it permissible for a foreign student to work his way through college?

ANSWER: Generally speaking this question must be answe red in the negative. While foreign students, under certain circumstances, are permitted to take limited part-time work, they are generally not pelmitted to come to the United States to study unless they. can

QUESTION: I was born abroad and came to the United Steates in 1914 as an immigrant. Four years later I was mar,ried and in 1920 my husband was naturalized. Be died in 1931. I would like to know whether I am an American citizen or whether I must be naturalized?

ANSWER: You acquired American citizenship through the naturalization of your husband., Before September 22, 1922 or im her husband became a citizen married an American citizen, or if her husband was naturalized, she became an American citizen also. If, however, she married a citizen after September 22, 1922 of her husband became a citizen after that date, she did not thereby get American citizenship.

From the facts presented you are entitled to a certificate of derivative citizenship and you may find this proof of your citizenship convenient to have. To obtain it, apply to the nearest office of the Immigration and Naturalization Service for Form N-600. This contains all the necessary instructions as to what documents you are required to submit in support of your application.

A fee of $5 is charged for this certificate.

Last Farewell Address

By Will Nesuda We are all gathered here to pay our last respect to our friend, Otto Louis Hosek, who met his untimely departure from this world by an acoiaent.

It was only a short time ago that he suffered a heart attack and from this illness he was successfully recuperating, and was almost well. Or as well as

WEST, TEXAS g 5- NtK T enjoying his hobby.

He was rated as one of the finest machinest in this country.

He moved to Dallas with his parents in 1922. Married Miss Bessie Vrzalik, who was his faithful wife till the present time.

Besides his wife, he is survived by his mother, father, and three brothers.

He was always good to all the members of his family, a jovial fellow, always friendly to all his fellow men.

He will be missed by everyone who knew him.

On behalf of the Dallas Sokol and Lodge Jaro, I extend sincere sympathy to the bereaved family. Let there be honor and glory to his memory.

To you, Otto Louis Hosek, our departed brother, may you rest in eternal peace.

The Queen will also receive a $25 bonus check from our Supreme Loge. I wish I was a teenager again this sounds good.

DALLAS SOKOL ZIZKA and SPJST LODGE 130 The grand opening of the Sokol Zizka Gymnasium and home of Lodge Jaro .PJST 130 was a gala affair — people coming from near and far, enjoying every minute of it. Dancing on the new floor was quite a treat to the music of Gus Herzan, Saturday evening.

After the short dedication, with the raising of the flag and singing of the National Anthem, was the ribbon cutting by the city representative, making the new building open officialy, Sunday morning. Once inside — the gymnasium was transformed into a banquet room, tables set up on the entire floor, and filled up. I might add for the denoon. Later in the afternoon was the lightful banquet that was served at program under the technical staff, assisted by several units and the DAC. Concluding the festivities was the dance Sunday evening music furnished by the bands of Gus Herzan and Don Hosek.

the others. Those people are generallly the officers of a club or organization.

However, the officers cannot do everything. It is not their duty nor their obligation to do things alone. They need the ideas and suggestions of the other members. They rely on the support of the others Yet, how can this much support be given if only a few members attend the monthly functions of the organization? The answer is simply that it can't be done. It takes something frorr each and every member. The officers have done all in their power to urge the members to attend monthly meetings, family nights, and other functions of our Lodge. It is true that nothing "unusual" or "breath-taking" can always be offered to attract the attention of the members. They must come because they want to.

Wednesday, September 20, 1959: and they must also realize their purpose in the functioning of that organization.

He must check to see if he is doing all that he can ti live up to those purposes.

If a member doesn't like the way a thing is being handled, he should not keep his feelings to hitr.iself, but he should express them openly at the meetings. Th officers of our Lodge are not "mind readers." They are not "supermen" who can do everything the way everyone likes them to be done. They need our help as members. They need the help of every individual!

This letter is not written only to praise the officers of our Lodge. It is not a sermon to the members. It is definitely not a public expression of the faults of our members.

Friends and Me a-bers, What does it take to have a really successful organization? I'm sure that you will all agree that the answer to this is teamwork, a spirit of give and take, and a very special interest in the well being of our fellow brothers and sisters. There is a countless number of other assets that do not meet the eye but that are equally as important as thost I have mentioned.

Then, what does it take to develop a genuine interest in the membership of a society such as the SPJST? The answer here is simple a group of people who will shoulder the responsibility of planning and guiding the affairs of the organization, people who give of their valuable time to make things easier for

Pictured above are Sister Anna ' and Brother Joe Milan and their eight children wives, husbands and grandchildren grouped around them, when on a happy occasion they all assembled together from all parts of the U.S. to make this memorable group picture. Besides their own, Sister Anna and Brother Joe, reared three children of her deceased sister, to adulthood, who look on them as Mother and Dad. These deeds speak louder than words of the high level of Christian love these two people have. May God bless and kee p them among this happy group for a long, long time. Sister Milan is our top woman SPJST Organizer of Texas.

A delicious dinner was served and after the dinner the Youth program began. My favorite in the program was the style show. I think it was everyone's favorite. The style show was presented by boys dressed as girls, they wore wedding dresses, sack dresses, and many others. After the program the Queen was crowned. The Queen who was crowned was from Skidmore. I bet that was the happiest day of her life. I really enjoyed myself too and I know everyone else did to.

In Memory of Otto Hosek A Game Warden was patroling his assigned area when he happened onto a man and several boys hunting in a. field.

He pulled over to the edge of the road and waited for the hunters to return to their car.

As they walked up, the warden asked, "Know you were hunting those birds out of season?"

The man replied guiltily that he did.

He also admitted that it wasn't his property and that he knew the area was posted. The boys were afraid to speak.

As the warden began to take down the names and addresses, tht man pleaded with him not to file charges. "If my boss gets wind of this he will probably break me or even fire me. Besides, that, I'm the scout master of these boys. I'm also a respected member of my church.

If you turn me in, what will i say to the parents of these boys and, what will my fellow church members think?"

"I can understand your position," answered the warden, "but I'm afraid I'm still going to have to run you in. You see, I'm in a very similar position. I have a fine job, too, with the State, and I'm a respectable member of a fine church.

Now, you wouldn't want me to lose my job or the respect of my fellow church members, would you? With that, the warden wrote out the ticket.

• • The nation's hunters — more than 12 trillion strong — will have another chance to prove themselves worthy of their sport this fall as a landownersportsman relations program goes into effect in many parts of the country. The program, called Hunt America Time, is sponsored by the Izzak Walton League of . America an national conservation organization, and by the National Sporting Goods Association for the third consecutive year during September and October.

"Hunt America Time is both a season and a program," said President George F. Jackson. "A season when millions traditionally enjoy the privilege of hunting and a program designed to save the

VESTNIK-4WEST,TIMAS privilege for new generations of hunters.

"Experts tell us that 80 per cent of all hunting trips are made on private land.

Landowners tell us that a persistent percentage of hunters trespass, trample crops, handle both fire and firearms carelessly, and flaunt the letter and spirit of game laws. Logic tells us that hunters will lose the privilege of hunting on most private lands unless the 'slobs' can be curbed. And that's what Hunt America Time is for."

"The program is simple. That's why it works." Jackson said. "Hunters read and sign a pledge to decent conduct afield, promising to be law abiding, to respect the rights and property and to be careful with firearms. Each signer is give a badge to wear and a folder explaining how a real hunter acts afield.

"A second prime objective is to break the tradition that it is sportsmanlike to shield slobs from the law and thereby encourage the abuse which threaten to rob us and our children of a. precious outdoor heritage.

Well in advance of pledge signing dates, local landowners are offered free "Hunting by Permission Only" and "Safety Zone — No Hunting Near Buildings" signs, giving the landowner control over use of his property as well as improved protection through the pledge program. )• 4•(

"Most of all, We are not worthy of peace which everyone hopes for. If courtesy toward these visitors will help, even a little, to keep the Four Horsemen (War, Famine, Pestilence and Death) from riding again, then I am with our President a hundred per cent."

Miss Svitak, who is an elevator operator in the Continental Life Bldg. said her father and mother came to Fort Worth from Austria-Hungary 49 years ago.

"They were so proud of their American citizenship," she recalled. "They brought all of us seven kids up to love America dearly — we have never forgotten those lessons."

Her father is dead now and her mother, Mrs. Anna Svitak, is close to 70, and a diabetic.

"Mother is still proud to be an American citizen," Miss Svitak said.

Her father brought the art of cabinet making to Fort Worth with him from Europe.

Miss Svitak said that he learned the trade in Vienna, when he was 15 years old.

She said he had worked for LawrenceMakin Planing Mill for 35 years as a cabinet maker, until his death.

"I hope my letter will do some good the world needs peace," said Miss Svitak, '; • 40 ( Can you operate a typewriter?

V STN K WEST, TEXAS MESSING UP OUR PUBLIC PARKS COST TAXPAYERS WHO DO IT A cartoon shows a state governor dedicating a public park by formally dumping the first sack of trash, empty cans and broken bottles in the picnic area.

It's almost too true to be funny. Too many citizens dedicate our parks that way themselves.

During the picnic season the messy minority show their gratitude for our parks by littering our playground area with greasy paper sacks, well-gnawed chicken bones, sandwich remnants and broken bottles.

They will show their "importance" or "independence" by strewing our bathing beaches with punched cans and splintered glass, usually flipped from auto windows. Some of the more timid souls will wait until after dark to dump their debris, but the danger and ugliness will not vanish with the dawn.

Automobiles capable of carrying a loaded picnic basket and ice chest of drinks into a park are equally capable of carrying the debris to the nearest trash receptacle — even it is back at home. Our Central Texas parks however have plenty of proper places to deposit rubbish.

It would be a heartening gesture if the folks who sell beverages in bottles would put a little notice in each carton reminding the buyer to help keep his country attractive by disooshig or the empties in a reasonable manner. Signs in the stores could say the same thing and remind the buyer that he has a number of respo le'ollitie> that go wife his right to buy.

disease of to some emotional disturbance.

A thorough examination by a physician may determine the exact cause in your case and lead to proper treatment and relief. )•&• BEWARE OF BATS In the early fall of 1951, a 43-year-old woman saw what apeared to be a dead bat on the steps of the Big Spring Post Office. Ps she stooped over to investigate the startled "dead" bat bit her on the left forearm.

Twenty-five days later, despite treatment in two hospitals, the woman was dead. The pathologist's report, on the autopsy read: "Encephalomyelitis with domestrable Negri bodies in central motor neurons compatible with rabies."

This case, so far as can be determined', marked the first time in medical history that a bat native to the United States has been linked with rabies. The woman's doctor said his findings "strong ly suggested that the bat bite was the source of the rabies infection."

In June of 1953, some 18 months after the woman's death in Big Spring, scientific eyebrows from coast to coast were raised in sudden interest when the Florida State Board of Health announced the discovery of rabies virus in an insect-eating yellow bat. A solitary treeinhabiting variety, the bat was killed in the act of attacking a 7-year-old Tampa boy.

In rapid succession the reafter, laboratory workers in Florida found characteristic inclusion bodies (called Negri bories after Adelchi Negri an Italian physician who first discovered them in 1903) in the brains of other bats, all native to the southwestern United States. Several weeks later the virus was discovered in an unidentified bat which made an unprovoked attack on a Pennsylvania woman.

Thus it is that bats have assumed a grim and eerie prominence in the total rabies picture in Texas and elsewhere — a pro:minence that was unsuspected a brief eight years ago.

None of you I'm sure, would knowingly become a drug addist, It would probably mean ruin for you and your entire family.

And yet some of you might already be on your way to just such a fate.

Thousands of persons have developed the sleeping pill habit. Some of them might not be able to break it.

Now there are products on the market which help induce sleep but are not habit-forming Still I strongly urge you to consult your doctor before using them or any other type of drug to help you get to sleep.

Many so-called sleeping pills belong to a group of drugs known as barbiturates. When properly used under a physician's direction, they are very valuable.

But indiscriminate use o f these drugs might lead to serious illness, even death.

Let's see what might hap pen of you decide to take some of these barbiturate sleep-inducers without checking with your doctor.

At first you start out with a single tablet. That works for a while. But with continued use, the amount required for relaxation and sleep grows larger and larger.

Moreover, the pills have become a crutch. You probably will find that you can't get to sleep without them.

By this time you actually are a sleeping pill addict, though you probably are unaware of it.

Soon your tolerance for the drug has become so great that the amount you need is considered more than your physician would ordinarily prescribe.

You're trapped — In such severe cases you probably will need the help of a doctor to break the sleeping pill habit.

In more moderate cases, you might be able to give up the pills simply by changing your living habits to insure natural sleep. Exercise, a proper diet and adequate relaxation and recreation will 'help you get to sleep. Here gain, your doctor might be of some help.

A fire guard can be made a road maintainer, old-, fashined road drag, bulldozer or any other kind of scraper. Once the fire; guard is made it should be scraped clean of vegetation each year.

If you think of the investment in grass it is easy to see that protecting it is a major responsibility. If grassland burns, it means that more winter feed than usual will be needed.

The specialist warns motorists driving through range areas to be careful. Put; cigarette butts, cigars and pipe ashes into your car ash tray instead of throwing them out the window. Hoffman adds that everyone likes a tasty beef steak or lamb chop. To have good meat the animal must be well fed. The sp,ortsman, grass represents food and cover for deer, quail and other game birds and; animals. For the fisherman, the grass means clear streams and better fishing in ponds or lakes. To conserve grass we must all work together, adds Hoffman, using all precautions possible to conserve grass — one of our greatest natural resources. )• 4•( John, an ambitions youth, one day stood viewing the :mountain range.
