I usnula take a spala diouho; probudivSi se, ohlitela se kolem. Byla noc, najata tena, oktisovatelka, tvrde usnula.

Myslila si: "Kdyt ma filosofii za zady, to ut vydrti a dokonei!" Ale nedokoneil.

Z eista, j asna prisla z Prahy novina, se dal Vaclav na vojnu.

Reports from oar Lodge., or any other Reading Matter to be published should reach the Editor, Saturday before the date of issue. Address all matters to the Editor: P. 0. Box 85, West, Texas.

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK

Our Annual Meetings December is the month of annual meetings. It not only is the 12th month of the calendar year but an important milestone in the life and activity of our society and its lodges. It is a month of the annual meetings which should be attended by all members because the oflicers render an accounting of their stewardship and the lodges either elect their successors or re-elect them for the good service they have given in the past.

In order to live, a person cannot sit still, but must go forward each day, so it is with any business of Organization.

In all of our Lodges there is need for a sensible division of our lodge work and in our Annual Fall Meetings, this should be kept in mind, during elections.

We are becoming more and more aware of the importance of our Youth in our SPJST and we should give them more thought in those districts where nearly nothing was done on a large scale for them, heeause NOW is the time to select future leaders in our local lodges.

Let us reconcile ourselves with these new trends of time, with the needs of that time and hand in hand with our younger generation, let us continue to build even better in the next year, our beloved SPJST. That is why it is the duty of every member to put everything else aside in December and attend the meeting and show that he or sihe is interested in the affairs of the lodge and the society as a whole. )•4

Notice To All Members Replying to many requests as to why their Vestnik has been stopped, after you paid up your 20 year policy. --This is to inform you, that you are entitled to our paper, but you must inform our Supreme Lodge at Temple to keep you on the mailing list. — Thanks for your friendly comments.

pie PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE "I pledge Allegian.oe 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."

At The End Of The

Year, Are You Counted As Important?

Nowhere in the history of the United States is democracy more truly exemplified than in the organization, structure and management of modern fraternal benefit societies. Founded on the basic principal of a representative form of government, their constitutions and by laws are so formulated that with the exception of minor amendments to meet the changing conditions of progressive business, they are strictly adheared to throughout the life of the organization.

First every member in good standing has the privilege of voting for his local offices. Second, he is urged to use this same franchise to choose outstanding representatives to the state meetings of his society. From this selected group are elected delegates to the quadrennial meeting of the society's national organization.

There is often keen competition for these state and national voting officers, which is as it should be. It indicates a keen and healthy interest in the Society and an incentive to see its principles fully exemplified. Popularity counts, to

be sure, in the election of these delegates, but is not the sole qualification.

A man or woman must not alone be well and favorably liked, but must have a good, sound knowledge of the principles of the Society and its objectives.

This sense of responsibility found in the fraternal society could well be carried into the daily life of Mr. Average Citizen and taxpayer. The relatively small proportion of men and women who get out and vote for their state and national government officials is a sad commentary on the activity of citizens in public affairs. When it comes to exercising their right of franchise, there is too much of the indeference expressed in the commonplace slogan of laziness, "Let George do it." Then what happens when "George does it?" George has been told who to vote for by a minority group — and he follows instructions to the letter. Had the majority exercised their right as voters the picture would have been a different one. Then, there is nothing left for the disappointed but an empty, promise of what they will do "next time" — when history repeats itself.

In connection with the foregoing it is 'our belief that the leading political parties could well take a leaf from the book of fraternalism. It might be to their advantage to impress upon the younger man or woman just coming to voting age the importance to the individual and to his country of unfailingly taking time out to cast his or her ballot. Many seem to take the attitude that because voting is not compulsory it is not important and that the absence of their vote will make little or no difference. Such an exhibition of an inferiority complex is injurious to cultivate.

Every vote counts, whether within the limits of fraternal society membership, or in the county-wide political arena.

There have been many occasions when a mere handful of voters have swung the tide to success or failure. No man wants to feel that his neglect of voting has been responsible for the defeat of his candidate. So, whether you are considering a candidate for a fraternal office, or for a public one. VOTE.

Does Your Daughter Need Insurance?

Our Ap ogy

Contest

In October the District I Meeting and Crowning of District I Queen was held at the Snook SPJST Hall.

We missed this event, returning home in rain, from Caldwell, as previously reported, which we now regret very much.

There were four young ladies entered in the Contest for the title of Queen of District I. This District of SPJST includes eight counties.

TO ALL YOUNG RUST CONTRIBUTORS

Most parents today have an open mind about the need for juvenile insurance.

Some, though, have only a half-open mind with regard to it. They will agree to a boy's need for life insurance but do not see the value in insurance on a daughter's life.

Just because a girl is a girl, life does not exempt her from the responsibility of thrift and the need for financial reserves. It is just as important that daughters learn thrift habits and money management as sons. The ability to plan, ahead, to budget expenses, to live within a given allowance, to refuse to yield to temporary spending temptations are fine qualities in a girl's character whether she marries or not. Today, too, in many young families the wife is the one who pays the bills, puts aside the savings and keeps the budget on an even keel. She is the family purchasing agent.

In short she is the one who is in control of the purse strings.

Asked what she most wants from life, a girl is likely to put happiness in first place. And that's not bad, that's good, because people who regard money as more important than anything else seldem find real happiness. But girls and women who do not have financial peace of minkseldole have happiness either.

Life insurance can mean economic security for the boy. It is no less economic security for the daughter. and Brother Jakubik were selected for their good efforts, to carry the title of SPJST Queen and King of District I for 1960.

District 5 Holds Meeting

Wednesday, November 11, 1959 Petite Carol Cole, in pink from head to toe, gave us the "Jazz Ballett." She is a graceful youngster.

The Sophisticates, young Frankie and Jimmie Tonian, to the accompaniment of their mother, sang in unison in modern swing: "You Come a Long Way from St. Louis," "Rockin' and Robin," and "Rock Around the Clock." They really have rhythm.

Lovely and blonde teen-ager Thalia Stehlik of Lodge 142, gave us "Mazurka"

by Weiniawski, and her own concept of "Concerto in D Major" in three movements, on her singing violin. Talia plays with the Houston Symphony Orchestra.

The enthusiastic applause wrung the Concerto number of our her for her encore.

"Melody of Love" on the accordion by a beginner from Lodge 88, little Katherine Sustala, was nicely presented.

Handsome teen-ager Robert Hilsher, sang "Tumbling Tumble Weed" accompanied by Youth Director Kelly. Robert has a wonderful voice registers particularly well over a microphone. He should go far with his singing, as a career, if he so chooses.

This concluded the Youth Program.

Everyone must have enjoyed it very much if enthusiastic applause attests to anything. They are beautiful and talented young people in District 5.

Again, the good sisters of Pokrok prepared to feed the supper crowd and visiting ensued.

After a prolonged intermission and a short dance session 12 young matrons of Pokrok 88, under the direction of Sis-' ter Birdie Hilsher performed their Blue Bonnet Waltz; which, they also recently presented before the Texas Fraternal Congress held at the Rice Hotel.

These sisters presented a tableau of graceful rhythm all in blue bonnet blue net and velvet gowns, with sister Kelly at the Piano and Sister Helen Hedgewood singing the Bluebonnet Waltz. This was a delightful switch from just the Youth performing and everyone heaped praise upon them for their number.

In appreciation of her work with this number, Sister Hilsher was presented with a beautiful Orchid from the Bluebonnet Waltz participants.

At 8:00 o'clock the Orchestra's fanfare alerted us that the Coronation Ball was about to begin.

Tiny Mary Ann Kasllecek and little Gerald Hilsher, both dressed in formal white satin evening clothes, carrying satin pillows upon which rested the royal crown, lead the five princesses and their handsome escorts into the Ball Room to their designated places before

Brother Olexa, congiatulated the young people for their wonderful showing in the Contest, and turned the microphone to Vice President Brother Joe B Hejny of the Supreme Lodge, who then began calling the royal pairs one after another to mount the stage to received thei applause.

Lovely sister Lillie Mae Melner in a blue net formal with a pink corsage, came up first on the arm of her escort Brother David Triska; representing Lodge Stefanik 142. of Houston.

Sister Sandra Kay Watson in a ballerina length pink net formal was next.

She came in on the arm of her escort, Brother James Noone, Jr., representing Lodge 166 of Beaumont.

Sister Patsy Jurek in an aqua net formal on the arm of Brother Allen Sirocka, represented Lodge 91 of Crosby.

Sister Betty Jean Slovacek in a white r ot formal came in on the arm of her escort Brother Larry W. Plughaupt and represented Lodge Pokrok No. 88 of Houston.

Brother Hejl announced: Sisters and Brothers, I give you King Walker and Queen Lostak of District 5.

As Sister Lorenda Lostak in a pink net formal on the arm of brother Dennis Walker remained standing on the Ball Room floor. They took their places on the stage to receive their crowns, to the cheering of everyone present.

Order, Brother Hejny gave as its birth at a gettogether between two rivaling Districts: District 3 and 5. Bro. Hejny commended the organizers of the Districts in our Order who put these programs over in their respective Districts; who made so much progress in the Order's growth and Brother Hejny thanked them in the name of the Order.

Brother Hejny alone pointed that District 5 alone, sold over 1/2 million of new insurance with its respective gain in membership; which, he pointed out, is quite enviable a record.

All of the parents of the royal court standing on the stage, were requested to come forward as Brother Hejny called their names, to be recognized.

A total of $425,500.00 of new insurance was written this month, a gain over last month's report. We reached our quota for the year, but that does not mean that we wish to quit for the balance of the year, as you well know, the closing months of the year are good months in which to write insurance.

Since we are making such good gains, I ask you to help in the writing of new insuranse, in every way possible for you to do so; help your organizer whenever you can. Furnish him the names of those in your community who may need insurance.

We wish to acknowledge the work of our youth in the helping of writing of new insurance for our Order. We know that our youth has taken great interest in this work and that the youth helped in reaching our quota for the year. In behalf of our organizers, thanks to our youth, our Youth Directors and to all who helped in the writing of new insurance.

If your lodge does not have a Youth Club, I ask that you organize one. You will find that by baying a Youth Club in your lodge, your lodge work will become more interesting. A active Youth Club in your lodge will bring the adults to your meetings and well-attended meetings bring success to our Order.

So for the close of the year let's bring the final month's re ports with good gains. With best wishes to everyone, I am Fraternally yours, Edward L. Marek )•a•(

(Delayed from Last Week) Dear Members and Fellow Workers: It really gives me great pleasure to be able to make a report as this one.

Ycs, you have done it again. This month's report reveals the greatest amount of Life Insurance written in any one month in the history of our SPJST. In the month of October, we issued certificates 1) 275 members for the amount of $425,500.00 of life insurance.

We welcome District No. 5 on the honer roll of those who have reached their 1959 quota. Congratulations, District No 5 organizers. This makes four of the seven districts who have reached their quota.

I ant also very happy to report that we have reached our quota state wide for 1:))9, and I hope that Districts No. 2, 4, and 6 will take advantage of the fall harvest and start writting up their prospects so they too will react their quotas.

Once again I wish to thank all the organizers, Youth Directors, our youth, officers and members who helped us in anyway in securing new membership.

Words alone cannot express how much we appreciate your efforts.

With best regards, I remain Fraternally yours, EXCERPTS FROM THE MINUTES OF Joe B. Hejny THE THIRD QUARTERLY MEETING OF 0.

Addresses Of Our Ushid Organizers

"THE WINNER?' SISTER ELAINE JOYCE ELLIS Lodge 153, Bennview, Texas Brother Paul Sablature, District Six President led the meeting through a very short session of business so that the Youth Program and the Coronation would be completed in the one afternoon.

The large Taiton Hall was packed and the crowd was generous with enthusiasm and applause for the lovely young people competing for the District Crown.

The honorable Senator Kruger from that District, spoke eloquently to the gathering, urging them to instill pride of the Czech origin into the younger generations, to encourage them to study the Czech language, saying that the Czech Language was the "door" to the Russian Language, which language America would like to see taught in every accredited school.

Even the weatherman smiled on these folks down in Taiton for it was cool but sunny all day and like magic drew folks outdoors and to our District Meeting. " For a more detailed report, look for the next issue of the Vestnik, since at the time this is being written the Vest-

Some farmers posioned as many as 10 times and toward the latter part of the season the cotton was tall so airplanes had to be used for spraying. But this doesn't discourage the farmer, he'll pull himself up by the boot straps and work for the future hoping next year he will do better.

All the land has been put up and now we are getting a nice slow rain just right to soak into the soil.

Hunting fever is prevailing here and everywhere else, I suppose. All the hunterrs are getting their gear together and on Nov. 15, they all will be heading for the brush. So run deer, run, the hunters are coming!

We are kind of excited in our household as our son is getting married on November 14. Brother Eugene Janak and Miss Waldine Heidensohn will be married on November 14, at the First Lutheran Church in Corpus Christi, Texas.

— May your troubles be "little ones".

Best regards to all. The weather outside is dreary, the north wind is blowing and it's drizzling, about all the day is good for is to clean out the pantry or those drawers in the chest of drawers. Goodby til next time.

Yours truly, Kathryne Hubenak • 4 • HOUSTON LODGE NO. 88 Dear Members and Friends: The day of November 1st will be a day that will long be remembered by our lodge. As you know, it was the day of the District 5 Queen's Ball. People began to arrive early Sunday morning to attend this occasion. We were all delighted to see everyone who came from outside of Houston, as well as many of our old members and friends who we hadn't seen in a long time. We were also pleased to see the large group that came from Dallas to partake in this event.

It was good to see you all.

The afternoon started off with a delicious lunch that was prepared by the sisters of our lodge. Following the lunch was the district meeting, and then a program was presented by the youth of this district. Our treasurer of the Youth Club, James Kadlecek, was the Master of Ceremonies. The program was directed by our Youth Directors Sisters Maxine Sefcik, Della •Kadlecek, and Estelle Kelly who I think did a wonderful job of it.

At seven o'clock that evening a group of ladies from our lodge assembled together outside the door preparing to dance the Bluebonnet Waltz which was under the direction of Sister Birdie Hilsher. The group composed of 13 young and attractive ladies waltzed along the dance floor in beautiful pale blue dresses accompanied by Sister Estelle Kelly at the piano and vocalist Helen Hedgewood. This group also danced at the Crystal Room in the Rice Hotel at the Texas Fraternal Congress. These ladies are something of which our lodge can be proud of.

Finally the big moment arrived and the Princesses and Princes of the lodges of District 5 made their grand enentrance. After a brief but inspiring speech from the Vice-President of the Supmeme Lodge, Brother Joe Hejny, the winners were announced, which are as follows:

Then the time came when our friends from Dallas had to make their departure. We were sorry to see them go but all good things . must come to an end; and so must that night. Each of us enjoyed the night very much and we sincerely hope everyone else had an enjoy able time.

It will be held at four o'clock in the afternoon and will be followed by the regular family night.

The attendance at the last meeting was creditable but still there were a lot of people missing. For those members who do not attend you are really missing out on wonderful experiences.

All of you should come out just to see the many wonderful things that can be accomplished in just a matter of minutes where there are interested members present to voice their opinions and to make their suggestions.

Remember, you have the privilege of belonging to Lodge 84. Yet, with this privilege we receive, there is always a corresponding duty to attend the functions of your Lodge. Check yourselves to see if you are abusing the privilege you have by being a lax and lazy member. You are not hurting just the Lodge and the other members, you are hurting yourselves even more so, by doing so.

So, remember, be there Sunday, Nov. 15, promptly. and all you regular attending members, try to bring another member with you and be sure to remind all the members you come in contact with before that day to attend the meeting This applies to all our teen-agers too. Don't let us down!

H©w Our Newspapers Doctor Says Eave - Stens — Live Longer Started Did you know that right in your pqblie schools the same idea is used Which was responsible for the newspaper? In the hallway, or outside some office, there is a bulletin board.

A bulletin is a piece of news, and at one time the bulletin board was used to spread news not only about a single institution, such as a school, but public news for everybody.

To read the news on a bulletin board, people had to go to the place where the board was to ated The idea of a new, spaper is that the items of news can be taken anywhere by the readers, and read whenever he wants to.

The first news that was intended to be read by the general public was government news. This was a way of telling the people what the government was doing or planned to do. So the first newspapers were government newspapers.

In ancient Rome, there was a government news sheet that was put on bulletin boards and distributed too. It was called Acta Diurna , which in Latin means "Daily Happenings."

The Chinese too, more than 1,300 years ago, printed a newspaper called Tching pao, which means "News of the Capital."

Besides the government, other groups that wanted to collect and distribute news were business men and traders. It was important for them to know what was going on in various parts of the world. So about 400 years ago in Gersny a business family caled the Fuggers, started a newspaper for their own information.

Toronto — Save steps and live longer, is the advice of Dr. John Armstrong, medical director of the Heart Foundation of Canada.

This can be applied directly to housewives, who often waste steps beating a path back and forth across their kitchens.

"Not only by saving steps, but by usring ,slight,W different methods, you can accomplish the same amount of work with le , s energy, and be less tired" lie says.

In 1948, a "heait" kitchen was constructed by the new York Heart Assn. committee on cardiovascular diseases in industry. Dr. Lillian Gilbreth of "Cheaper by the Dozen" fame headed the committee.

Methods applied in industry are equally helpful_ in housework. Although the booklet was written primarily for women with heart disease, it has suggestions for every busy housewife who Would like to enjoy extra time and extra energy.

Some of the suggestions are: Pre-positioning of equipment and supplies can save hundreds of steps. Shore articles where the y are most often used and group things that are used together near a work area.

Seasoning, canned goods, serving dishes and platters should all be stored near the stove where they are to be used.
