Olanky o bratrskem pojiSt'ovani, jak se katdY mute presvedeiti, jsme k niladezi •psali do anglicke east vtclyt' nano star gi elenstvo o snahach bratrskych Jednot rna dokonalou znamost. — Pripoinenu tedy dnes zde pouze ku obeerstveni panieti, te:— Prvni 'bratrske .padpurne Jednoty, ei spolky, byly zalotene jit ye stare vlasti v polovine minuleho stoleti tedy pied vice jak sto lety a milj ded i otec byli elenem podobneho spolku s bratrskou ten denci.

Myglenka bratrske soueinnosti v ratnYch odstinech jest vtak mnohem stargi net to, a moblo by se popisem rianYch techto sboril a jak pracovaly zapiniti nejen celY tento Vestnik, ale nekolik sel.

Vratim se tedy k tomu, te kdyt nage a i jine pristehovalci pri gli do teto nave vlasti, zalozili si jakrnile zde zdomacneli, prvni bratrske podpurne spolky v meri gim kroutku ovgem, fekneme v -osadnich rozmerech.

Tyto spolky za kratkSt 'eas se spojily v bratrske vet gi Jednoty.

Tento vzor, i zakladatele nagi SPJST sledovali.

Ovkm, Ze to vybudovani ne glo tak rychle ku pkedu jak tento muj popis, nebot' bylo treba neustalYch oprav a pravidel vedeni a hospodateni, tak jak i my to delame dodnes. — Avgak myglenka bratr skeho spoleeni obzvla gte v tivotnim pojigt'ovani se skvele osvedeila. — Chci pomenouti zde, ze i ye stare vlasti byly einne spolky Usporne, konsumni nektere i pUjeovali elenum hotave aneb vedli obchody pro deny , kde se ramie zboti prodavalo levne za hotove a je gte na konec roku po vynetovani elenove dle svYch tam udinenYch nakupfi, dostavali jiste procen to z Tedy jegte jednou, bratrske spole'ovani jest star gi net co ja pamatuji a do teto vlasti myglenka pri — aneb ptene-

Ve stfedu, dne 17. imora 1960 send byla pilstehovalci. My glenka bratrskeho spoleovani jest bez pochyby dobra a kaZda ta existujici Jednota, jest ovgem jak ta nage jen tak dobrd, jak elenstvo chape myglenku, jak ruzne jeji sloZky pracuji, Ake jest vedeni a jak se ziskava nove elenstvo za dbytek clenu ka,Zdello roku.

Bratrske Jednoty konaji sve pravidelne sjezdy rekl bych, poradni a sitatavaci. kde se i planuje ku predu dle navrha tam podanYch s rtiznYch slotek bratrstva i jednotlivcii. — Jest to dobre pravidlo.

Pri tom laskave pamatujme, ze tadne lidske dilo neni dokonale a te oprav je zapotfebi vtdy. K dobre shade jest jen zapottebi podavati nahledy zptsobem aby smefovaly pro dobro celku, tak aby chut' k dalgi dobre praci se u vtech povzbudila.

Vrat'me se v gak k tomu podatku bratrskeho pojigteni, — Detske poji gteni bylo zavadeno u bratrskYch Jednot tepry az kolem roku 1905 at 1910. — Stain se tak v dasledku usnegeni Nar. bratrskeho Kongresu (Nat'l. Fraternal Congress) lent schvalil tam podanY navrh "Aby byla zavedena v bratrskych Jednot, oehrana eelYch rodin."

To ovgem znamenalo, ptiputteni ditek do nove zavedeneho Detskeho odboru u vgech sbratkenYch radii podpurnych Jed not.

Jakmile bratrske podpitrne Jednoty za vedly detske odbory a poznalo se, Ze je to naprostYm Uspechem, do glo k zavedeni nadaenich pojistek pro ditky' vet ginou u veku 18 let.

Tak i nage Jednota, jak jine bratrske Jednoty ma nyni radu vYhodnYch pojistek pro ditky a na g odbor madete utegene roste.

Ji Washington a duch revoluce

'

Bylo jaro; polovina dubna 1775. Deji g -tembylakopcvinedmaschusettsk.Ych osad Lexingtonu a Concordu. Britsti vojaci v cervenych kabatech narazili na odpor odhodlane skupiny far matt a megt'ann. A americka revoluce tak zaeala. SlavnY americkY spisovatel a basnik Ralph Waldo Emerson popsal prv vYsttel bitvy u Lexingtonu a Concordu jako "vYsttel", kterY sly geli kolem celeho sveta".

Nasleclky americke revoluce mely vskut ku pocititi mnohe zeme sveta —a to na hodne dlouhY eas. Ozvuky toho prvniho vYsttelu ozYvaji se je gte i dnes. Jednim cluvodem je snad to, Ze americka revoluce nebyla toliko politickYm vzbouienim; mela dalekasahle mordlni a duchovni spodni tony. Prohla geni neodvislosti, vypracovane v hlavnich obrysech Tomagem Jeffersonem, zdaraznovalo "samortejme pravdy", Ze v gichni lidé jsou stvoteni navzajem si rovni, te jsou od Boha obdateni pravem na Zivot a svobodu a vyhledavani gtesti.

Duch tehdej g1 doby nagel sveho ptedstavitele v osobe Jitiho Washingtona, je hoz 228ti vyroci narozenin slavime 22.

'Calera. Tento mu2 v bile paruce, s velkym nosem a sevtenYmi rty stal se ohniskem pozornosti nejen Amerieana , kteti toutill settasti okovy tyranstvi, ale i lidi jinYch zemi, kterYm je jevil ideal svobody prave' tak yznegenYin a 2adoucim.

Byl zde markYz de Lafayette, kterY se stal celaivotnim ptitelem WashingtonovYm. Jako general-major bojoval Lafayette chrabte po boku necviCenYch Amerieana na pude, ktera se mela zahy stall jejich vlastni. Po skoneern valky vratil se do sve vlasti, aby tam pfevzal filohu vcidce francouzske revoluce.

Roku 1789 picedlail Lafayette Irancouzskemu narodnimu shromaZd6ni Deklaraci pray, listinu, za jeja vzor sloufflo americke Prohla geni neodvislosti. V ustavnim shromaIdeni bojoval pak za

dealy, jet ut byly ustalenYrni hasty ye SpojenYch statech; za zru geni libovolne ho zatYkani, za nabolenskou svobodu, za narodni zastoupeni, za porotni prelieeni a za svobodu tisku.

Byl zde i Tadeusz Kosiuszko, Polak, kte rY z vlastni villa se rozhodl postaviti se po bok americkYch revoluciondit a jenZ" se pozdeji stal WashingtonovYm adjutan tem a dobrYm ptitelem. Kosciuszko byl rovne 2 r demokratem podia americke tradice. On totiZ vetil , Z • e Polsko by se dalo vzkfisiti jedine na podklade absolutni svobody a rovnosti pied zakonem.

Roku 1794, kdyZ" Rusko a Prusko u2 byly pohitily dye tketiny Polska, vtrhl Kosciuszko de Krakova, aby vyburcoval sedke vzpouie a k boji o neodvislost. Re voluce vaak selhala; asi proto, ze Kosciuszko si neuvedomoval, ze Poisko nebylo tehdy na podobny krok ptipraveno.

Sve idealy a nadeje eerPali vtak Kosciuszko a jeho sourodaci z arnericke revoluce a ze styku s lidmi jako Jiri Washington.

Dokonce i v Anglii, kde pYcha utrpela vekou poraZku a kde vzporninky na Ameriku nemohly tehdy byti prave nejptijemnej gi, nagli se myslitele, kteri byli 0chOtni pokiadati americkou revoluci za neodvratnou skutecnost, za nem, co bylo nutno vetkati do tkaniny svetovYch dejin. Zasady arnericke revoluce pocitily hluboce zapadni a vychodni Evropa, pozdeji i JiZni Amerika, a novagi dobou i Asia.

Zasady americke revoluce — zasada rovnosti, zasada sebeureeni a zasada o lid skych pravech nejsou zasady , ktere mo hou zaniknout. Zasady tyto se udrZi na celem svete; prave tak, jako symbol Jiiiho se udrtuje v pameti vgech lid'. Tyto zasady vytrvaji vgude, kde lid se tegi nove nabyte svobode, ikde lid chtel by a met by bYti svoboden. ) (

It is the peace of mind for your family's security, just for the signing on the clotted line, which guarantees your family a sum of money far greater than you could save in many years of your life.

2. It affords guaranteed protection at any given time in life, so that your family will know in advance, just how much will be available in any emergency that may crop up.

3. It can guarantee benefits at the big expense times in your life; such as children's education or your mortgage cornrnitmE nts.

4. It is an experienced money management insurance arrangement, where by your wife is relieved of the burden and the widow's risks of money management.

5, It can guarantee income when you are ready to take it easy and can build up an income which neither you or your wife can outlive.

Besides providin g for family security, life insurance plays an important role in our national growth. Through savings, life insurance helps provide funds for new schools, new factories and new jobs our growing America needs. Money saved in this manner also helps fight inflation.

See your SPJST representative today.

Let him show you how you can save through insurance for that child's education, your retirement years, your widow's security.

VESTNiK— WEST, TEXAS ington's "Jewish Regiment" at Beaufort was known to him, as well as the competence, devotion and courage of his aide-de-camp, Col. Isaac Franks, of Major Benjamin Nowes, "the Jewish Lafayette," and David Emanuel, later governor of Georgia. When he was President, George Washington never inquired into the national origin or religious background of a candidate for office, providing he was otherwise well qualified for the work. ) • 4 • (

GEORGE WASHINGTON On February 22nd, we shall observe George Washington's birthday. He was the first President of the United States and loveingly called the "Father of his country." Soundless of judgement and solidity of information were his notable qualities. He learned also, in the early stages of his life, that determination and perseverene were the two prerequisites for success. An interesting fact is, that he was one of the first colonial farmers to experiment with crop rotation. All through his life, George Washington sought to increase his knowledge knowing that without knowledge, there can be no progress.

John Adams, remembered the spirit in which George Washington had born severe abuse, criticism and hardship, .wrote this simple, yet glorious tribute to this greatest American upon hearing of his passing: "Malice could never blacken his honor, and envy made him 'a singular exception to her universal rule. Thus was he leader and inspirer, rand keeper of the Cause." It is said of him that he was: "First in War, First - in Peace and First in the Hearts of his Counthymeii.-

Suggested Change Of Methods At the last meeting of the SPJST Lodge Jaromir No. 54 of West, Brother Hugo Freund made a motion, that whenever a lean is made against a policy of our SPJST and the policy is then kept by the Supreme Lodge as security, the Supreme Lodge should issue to the bor, rower, a substitute certificate, giving name of policyholder, Class of Certificate, amount of insurance and the amount on the loan against said certificate.

Under the present status, the widow, or widower, with such a loan against the deceased's policy, has absolutely nothing in hand to show, ,that they are insured with the SPJST and often, wife or husband doesn't know that such a policy exists. All they have is a slip of paper, a receipt, written in Czech which oftentimes the survivors cannot read to realize what slip of paper stands for, or they may be living out of state, for example, in California and not be aware of this insurance policy.

This problem of handling the loan against policies isn't handled correctly.

The policyholder should have some sort of certificate, a pro Forma, certificate showing that he or she is insured with the SPJST whenever original certificate is held in escrow at Supreme Headquarters.

This motion for a change in this sys_ tem of handling of policy loans was made by Brother Hugo Freund: was accepted by the lodge.

Brother Robert Cervenka, President of Lodge Jaromir 54 and also a delegate to the next Convention, promised to bring this problem up before the Convention at the proper time.

Editor's Not We advised Brother Freund to send his motion in a more concise form to the By-Laws committee for proper handling. )• 4 • (

Two hundred and twenty eight years ago George Washington, American Commander-in-Chief during the War for Independence and the first President of the. United. States, was born in Virginia. During the American Revolution, Washington found that national origin, race or religious faith did not affect devueion to the American cause.

Among his most trusted officers were the French General Lafayette, the Polish Generals Kosciuszko and Pulaski, the German-born Generals Steuben and De Kalb, and the Danish Christian Febiger, the Hungarian Kovacs, the Belgian De Pauw, the Catholic Irish-American General Sullivan, and many other officers and men of the most diverse origins and faiths.

For many years there hung in the President's office in the White House an elaborate chrystal chandelier which had been bought in Paris by Thomas Jefferson. It remained more or less unnoticed until Theodore Roosevelt came into office. Roosevelt, an outdoor man who loved fresh air, usually worked with windows open. The breeze blowing in caused the prisms to tink le. For some time Roosevelt endured this distraction.

Then one day he growled, "Get this thing out of here." But where to put it?

Roosevelt thought this over for a minute, "Put it in the Vice-President's office, he has nothing to do anyway.

Maybe it will keep him awake."

The order was carried out. And there the chandelier hangs to this clay.

YOUTH CLUB

Wednesday, February 17, 1960 TEENAGE CLUB LODGE NO, 84 Dear Readers and Friends, On Sunday, February 7, our teenage, club held their semi-annual Marathon Dance Contest. Defending champions were Jerry Ann Urban and. James J. Janousek. The contest began at 2:30 p.m. sharp. As the contest progressed several couples dropped out and then the tension began to grow among the spectators. At 6:30 our semi-finalist were Cathey Adamcik - James Mandak; Ann Hetiner - Larry Petr; and Jerry Ann, Urban _ James J. Janousek. By 7:00 the contest was narrowed down to two couples: Ann Hetmer _ Larry Petr and Jerry An Urban - James J. Janousek.

I would like to comment at this time that there was only one five-minute break which was at 4:30. As the time rolled on so did the couples. At times it looked as though there would be a winner any minute. But it seemed that each couple would find new life and the contest would continue. Finally at 10:00, with the two couples still holding up after 7 1/2 hours of dancing, the chaperones present and our Youth Leader came to a decision that the dance would be considered a tie.

As soon as possible we will have pictures in the paper with more details explaining the result of the contest. Before I close, the Entertainment Committee wishes to thank all who participated in the contest and hope you will enter in the next one in August.

Fraternally yours, Entertainment Committee James J. Janousek •, • LODGE NO. 66 WACO Dear Members and Friends, I have a little spare time so I thought of writing a few lines. Last Sunday was our monthly meeting. Adult meeting took place first and then our youth meeting and Valentine party began our table was decorated so pretty with a big white cake and a red heart in the center of the cake. We also played lots of games the funiest one was to tie a balloon around your ankle and dance.

If someone burst it you were out of the game.

After we got good and tired, it was time for all of us to eat. We had a good supper. After we ate we exchanged Valentines then we had a drawing for the cake. They drew my name so I was the winner of the cake. And after that we all danced a little.

Finally it was time to go home, we all were pretty tired. We didn't need to be rocked to sleep. Ha, ha, it was very enjoyable for all. Our next meeting will

.t. I, tjuto

be March '6th. Let's all of us members and all you Linden Sprouts get together again.

Yours Truly, Helen Kolenovsky ) WACO LODGE NO. 66 YOUTH NEWS Dear Members: Sunday, February 7th, the Youth Club of Lodge 66 had its meeting. At this time the officers for 1960 were elected. They are President, Beverly Gaidusek; Vice-President, Eugene Miller; Secretary-Treasurer, Mary Nell Narovec; Guide, Mary Sue Moore. Congratulations to you, new officers, and lots of luck in your work this coming year.

To set off this new year of Youth Activities was a special Valentine's Party. All the youth joined in games and dancing to celebrate this gala affair. The Hall was decorated with the traditional hearts of red and white.

Two large satin hearts, which stood at the side of the stage, highlighted the decorations. In the center was a dec orated table containing the favors and prizes for the games. After an evening of fun and merriment, the youth departed gery tired but happy.

The youth would like to thank our youth director, Mrs. Ceska, and her assistants, Mrs. Dorothy Moore and Mrs. Rosemary Spence, for their work on the party. It was enjoyed by all and we are looking forward to many more youth and teenage activities at Lodge 66.

Fraternally, LaNell Ceska ) • 4, • ( — Teen-ager asks: Do you think a teenager (age 15) should be able to date once in a while or should they be older.

I am a teenager that is 15 and my parents won't let me go on dates.

Can we say "yes a girl of 15 should be allowed to go out on dates?" If we did most cf the teenagers reading this would agree; parents, probably without exception would disagree. We cannot say a mere "yes" or "no" The question of deciding when a particular teenager should be allowed to date is not like the black-and-white matter of working an arithmetic problem; it is a problem that is never the same, from one instance to another.

What we can and must say is that a girl of 15 should be allowed to enjoy the courtship of other teenagers, both boys and girls. Teenagers should be allowed to make dates to meet the gang at the malt shop, drug store, or the movies. We say this• because too often parents feel that they must keep their teenager separate from the opposite sex as much as possible, just as long as possible. Some

parents feel the same way about marriage. They seem to think that the longer they can keep their children from marrying, the better chances of a successful marriage. This is on the theory that they are "old enough" to know what they are getting into. This may well be true — if they (the children) haven't been too protected from life and from association with people.

Although it has been several years, the author has never forgotten the favorite saying of a colorful college professor: "Some parents seem to think they can `raise' their children in a bureau drawer until they are 21 and then throw them out into the world becauSe they're 'old enough.' to know what's going on."

On the other side of the ledger, most teenagers want more dating "freedom" than they should have; and if you give them an inch they will try to take a foot. Nobody has an easy answer to the dating question. It is something parents must work out for themselves. ) 4,

I think that we can be proud of this fact, and that we should encourage the rest of our lodge to start a Youth Club so we can give all aim youth as much as possible, in order' to help the lodges grow and secure the future of our SPJST. I do not doubt that our Youth directors will give our youth the best they can, that they will be good leaders. As you know, every human being influenced by example, either for good, or bad. This especially is true when talking about our youth. Our Young, members need good examples, they need courageous and inspiring leadership. Otherwise, their ideals would degenerate. We want them to become good citizens.

These included trapping bighorn sheep on the Kofa Desert Game Range in southwestern Arizona, developing brood stocks of deer and turkey in many Texas counties, trapping deer, turkey and javelina on the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge, surveying coastal waterfowl and determining the status of the white-winged clove in Texas.

In 103 Texas counties technicians recorded game populatilln trends. They made covey counts and studied wings sent, in by hunters for quail estimates.

Deer populations were estimated thru herd counts and check stations.

A program of trapping in areas where snrplus exists and translanting to suitable locations where brood stock is needed, was carried out in mearly every part of the state. Some 287 deer, 46 turkey and 13 javelinas were trapped on the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge and • transplanted elsewhere. In addition, 236 deer, 197 turkeys and 25 javelinas were trapped on the King Ranch.

Abont 140 turkeys were trapped on other private ranches, and used for restocking purposes.

• • "The force of wind-built waves should be treated with respect, their power never underestimated," warns F. A. Murray in his article "Storm Warnings" in the February issue of "Texas Game and Fish."

"To know how to handle a boot in rough Water, you should first know your boat and outboard motor as well as you Ikripw the operation of your car," advises, the author, "Bad weather has a sneaky habit of appearing when you least expect it. A healthy puff of wind coursing over the surface of a lake can spell plenty of trouble for the careless boater."

Murray points out that most experts favor angling into waves when fighting the winds. However, an inexperien,ced boatman traveling in a boat under 16. feet should head directly into the waves. This can be risky too if the weight of both passengers and equiprhent as not distributed properly.

"Ani se mi nechce doint," zasteskla si diveina. "TakovST krasnSt zpev. Bojim se ale at' jest jak chce, Jenieku muj , mej ye nine dtiveru—" "Take i ja, mam nejakou pkedtuchu," ozval se jinoch, take ja bych zde radeji znstal. Ale musime domit, budou to jiste hledati."

A posledne se objav ge, rozchazeli se.

Sedlak Koula poekal, aZ oba mladi de se ztratili mezi dorny ve vesnici a pak take on se vratil domit.

Statek Koultiv byl tak vStstavnft, jako velkostatek. V'Sude dosti mista, v'Se moder ne zarizeno a sedlak sam platil po celem okoli za pokroeileho bohateho sedlaka.

A prave tato povest a jeho penize mu stouply do hlavy, jako se stava east() kteri si pomohli ku jmeni a zapo• meli na Toho, jenZ Zehnal jejich praci, na Boha sveho. Taxi lido se domnivaji, ze oni Boha nepoti-ebuji , a k jejich bohatstvi jest nadobro zajiatene, Ze o ne nikdy prijiti nemohou.

TakovYm byl Koula.

Ve sttedu, dne 17. tmora 1960 Ten zrovna hranieil s Koulou a mel jedineho syna. Mimo nej site mel jeate dve dcery, ale ty byly jiZ provdany a dostala kaZda velike yen°. ZbYval nyni neZ syn, dedic statku a pro toho hledal Klima zazobanou nevestu. Oko jeho padlo na Anieku Koulovu, nebot' o to vedel, bude miti vice neZ dosti, jsouc jedinou clediekou celeho velikeho statku. Klima vedel, ze jedine bohata nevesta dovede zahojiti rany, ktere zasadil svemu statku bohatYm venem syYm dceram.

Proto take nelibe nesl, Ze Anieka Koulova se zamilovala do syna chalupnika Dobreho. Vedel 2e Koula svoje dite miluje, ale jeate vice Ze miluje svoji pYchu selskou. Proto pracoval pilne, aby Koulu naladil proti Jenikovi Dobremu. A podatilo se mu to snadno, jelikoZ nikdo ye vesnici nemel ani tuaeni, Ze Klima jest zati'Zen velikYm dluhem u znameho vydriducha 'Zida Kohna.

Zid vedel dobre, "te pan tatinek Klima dobre dovede mieet a te mu rad zaplati vysokSr firok, kdyZ bude mleet on.

Tak se pomalu stalo, ze vlastnim panem na statku Klimove byl 'Zid Kohn. — Pred svetern byl Klima hrdYm sedlakem, PYg nYm a drsnYm vriei chalupnikrim, domkarrirn, podruhrim, jakrikal, ba i menaim sedlakrim, ale v Ustrani, v 2idove uaninene sednici' byl tak malinkYm jako nepatrenS, broueek a zdvorilYm aZ k nechutnosti.

KdyZ jiZ" st5,val se Zid nespokojenym a chtel, aby mu Klima statkem zajistil jeho penize, vytasil se Klima se svYm planem, oleniti sveho syna a dcerou Kou lov ou.

"Phantatinku, phantatinku, to jest my alenka, takovou dovede najiti jen takova vzdelana hlavy, tak moudrY *Cloy& jako phan Klima. Jinf by se na to nezmohl."

A Klima ye sve hlouposti nechapal, zid vlastne si z neho tropi pouze Z'erty.

Najednou Klima udelal navrh: "Vite co, Kohne? Jestli mi pomiltiete, aby se to stab(); dam varn eistou stovku za tu pomoc."

"Phane Klima," branil se Kohn. "The by to stalo jen za tholik? Vy vite, Ze to bude prate Vite co? Date mi pet stovek kdy'l pan syn se okni s Aniekou Koulovou. Thakova pekna holka za to stcji a hla,vne kdyz ma thakovY peknY statek a phenez nepoeitanYch:

Z malYch poeatkil pomohl si k velkemu A tak se stalo, '2e neeista ta dvojice statku porrialYm pfikupovanim a zvet.aovanim zdedene selske Zivnosti. Ponena- se spojila na rozbiti nadeji JenikovYch a hlu se z neho stal •druhST sedlak v mi- znieeni cele lasky naaich mla,dYch lidi.

Take lined zaeali pracovati. Klima oste. JedinSun, kdoZ jej dosud pkevyaoval, jak se aspori zdalo, byl jeho soused, sed- deael, aby veeer se setkai s Koulou v hostinci. Koula byl S'etrnY elovek, ale za gel si lak Klima.

Ve sti'edu, dne 17. unora 1960 piece mezi sousedy, aby s nimi pohovokil. Klima jen malokciy vdel do to spoleenosti radeji si zachazel do mesta, kde se picatelil s lidmi druhu vklikeho.

V dobe kdy2 sedel Klima s Koulou, zad nimi dvekrni do Kohnovy kokalny vekl Klimuv syn Jakub.

Byl uvitan velice pkijemne Kohnem, con mu bylo napadnYm. V2clyt' mu Kohn poslal upominku s vyhrilSkou, ze jej bode Salovati, jestli nezaplati ten svtij — "dlouSek", kterY vyrosti na mnoho set.

Chtel dnes se vymlouvati, ale Kohn nedovolil.

"MladY phane , mlaclY phane," zaeai Kohn. "Then papirek, co jsem yam poslal zahodte, neni dobrY. A thady mate neco dobreho na posilneni," kekl Kohn, pod6vaje Jakubovi sklenieku kokalky.

Jakub ji do sebe pfehnul jako tregni a olizl se.

"Ta byla dobra. kde ji mate takoyou?"

"Thady mate jate jednu, mladY phane," lichotil se Kohn a hned nalil druhou.

"Main radost mladSi phane, mam radost. Phan otec mi thady povidal, 2e budete si brati Anfeku Koulovu."

"Co2e?" vykrikl Jakub. "Kdo to povidal? Ja, Anieku? Kde pak ja si vezmu Terinu Novou, ne Anieku Koulovu, Ta ma sveho, ja mdm svou a dost. —" "Ale, mladY phane," zaeal filisne Kohn "mladY phane , tohle by bylo ale lep§i.

Phan otec to thaky mysli, co byste dostal s Terinou? Nic a co dostanete s Aniekou?"
