I do want to say that we have had a veuy productive year in 1959 . When I say productive, I mean in more ways than one. We sold a lot of nice insurance in 1959, more than we have ever sold in the SPJST history; in one year your organizers, gained valuable membership; your teen agers, families, individuals, are responsible for that. They are the ones who helped the sales. We have sold over two million dollars worth of life insurance in 1859, which is certainly something which, we should be progdi of. We have had lots of activity among our TeenAgers and youth. We have had new Youth Clubs organized, during the past year and those that have been organized proved again that they are capable and 'very active and have leadership as we have witnessed just recently. We have had a more productive year in the lodges also; in District Meetings and Social Functions. We have come to closer understanding of the wishes of our members and fellow workers and by such workers we have been able to do these things.

Wednesday, March 9, 1960 to commend you and thank each and everyone of you for being behind us and working with us and especially thank District III for the raising of $700,000 of insurance in 1959. Thank you very much," said Brother Hejny.

Brother John F. Chupick, Secretary of the Supreme Lodge v, as next. "I want you to know that I appreciate the opportunity to say a few words to you. It is, indeed, very nice to be here with you folks. I like people, I like to mingle and talk to them and my connections with the SPJST has certainly given me lots of opportunities to do just that."

Brother Chupick spoke about the "All Nations Day" just recently held in El Campo, Texas, where different nationalities that make up our mighty America participated in a program of rational arts, cookery, dancing, etc.

Brother Cnupick stated: "Our Czechs really outdid themselves they had the best booths, best food and carried off many honors "This is my first visit to your wonderful plac e , I know that you had a nice home, but I didn't expect this. It is really nice!" complimented Jaro on their beautiful home.

"Thank you again for your courtesies and I wish, you lots of good luck." said Brother Chupick Supreme Lodge Financial Sercetary Brother Raymond Urbanovsky then spoke. "I am just like Brother Hejny, I did not prepare to make a speech — just to come and eat; this was supposed to be an organizational meeting, but I do want to say that we have had a very successful year; our ledger assets have increased; and we have had the best Net results we have ever written.

I also get a lot of pleasure in coming to Dallas. Dallas has given the SPJST more pubicity than any other district.

When it comes to publicity; their Association of Fraternal Sports and Youth, I think it is outstanding. People in Dallas know us everywhere. Our Waco lodge, too has given our SPJST a lot of publicity," stated Brother Urbanovsky.

He thanked Brother Vrla, our host for tis kind invitation to be here today.

Brother Pokladnik: "We appreciate the praise about the publicity from the Supreme Lodge Officers." The First Vice_President of District Three, Brother George Trojacek was introduced: "It is indeed, a pleasure to be here today among you in such an outstanding and wonderful hall , What I am going to say will be very short. I hope that everyone is enjoying themselves as I am."

(The speakers were allowed only three minutes, therefore, there was some rep-

VESTNtK — WEST, TEXAS etition in acknowledging the invitations to be present).

The District Three, Second-Vice President Brother Ed Mazanec spoke: "It gives me great, pleasure to be here today with you. I also anjoy coming out; I always make, new friends. I think we have one of the best District Organizers in the state, due to his efforts we have won this contest this year and thank him for, the wonderful banquet he has put on here today."

District Three Secretary, Sister Mary Renfro, camen up the the `raik`e' for a demure Thank You. Brother Alvin Nesuda, our District Three Treasurer then gave his message: "I do want to say one thing; as Treasurer I am, going to be mailing out statements to our secretaries, so I would like to get some money from our District.

Editor Hosek, was next. "It wouldn't be right if I did not start with 'Thank you' for this fine reception that you have given us all, and I think that this day will long be remembered. Just like Brother Hejny said, these "coming-toe gethers" will help us out in our work.

You know that before our Districts started we did not know each other. We had no idea what Sister Helen Krutilek looked like, for exaeriple, or someone in Houston like Brother Shefcik; we did not know what our Brother Talasek was like. A good many in Corpus Christi, for example, did not know about our Sister Ceska, or our Brother H. Shefcik; these District Meetin gs have brought us together. From the beginning I had hoped that these Districts would work out well and they did, and I am happy for it.

Speaking in Cz ech, Brother Hosek said: "These Districts helped us very much, because we know each other better now, we have also had more success! in our dealings and I firmly believe in this and ask you that you support all those who !help our organizational movement. Because our older members are leaving us at a dangerous rate, if we do not use our best efforts to move forward and elist our youth members in this work, so they could replace our departing members, we will soon pass out of the picture. So let's all work and pull together in harmony, for as soon as we stop growing we will go backwards. Thanks for listening."

Brother Pokladnik then reiterated: "these are true words, these meetings are social affairs, but hare brought us closer together not only in sales of insurance; not only as fraternalists, but in friendship. I know in my own heart how 'much good has been done to me and my fellow members of the SPJST

Strana, 13 to be able to recognize faces and renvmber names. Tto be able to get together and to know people in this big state is a fine thing. By that token we represent more to our state and our country. In our fraternal' bond, we neeo,gnize the benevolence, fraternalism humanity of our SPJST. I thank you very much."

Sister Emma Ceska, DiStrict Three Youth Leader spoke next: "A day like Isis makes, inc :happy that,I am an organizer's wEe. Speaking of my feelings, we have certainly enjoyed the hospitality here. Speaking about Lodge 130's Youth Club, we hope that their recently organized Youth Club grows and that they will keep it up. I know that our fraternalism and friendship will contin, ue to grow an...; if all of you will join our Youth. Activities, I know our work will go forward." concluded Sister Ceska.

Sister Bessie _ e, Assisth t Youth Director in District Three spoke: "I am very happy to be here and congratulate all organizers. You have been selling insurance and have been doing a wonderful job. Thank you," District Three Queen, Sister Jeanie Hubik said: "Congratulations to Lodge 130 on their beautiful home. It is the great honor and pleasure to be here among you wonderful people today."

Her Youth Leader, Sister Ruth Krizan, sat with her, but being an organizer's wife also, her identity got lost in the shuffle. For give us Sister Krizan.

District Five's second vice president Brother Charles Cerny of Houston spoke next. "First I want to coavliment you people here on such a lovely home."

He apologized for his District's President Brother Olexa and wife and those who had planned to be here but due to illness had to cancel out at the last moment. The District Orgonizer, Brother Skrabanek, and his popular lady have illness in their home and could not come.

"I would like to start a little further back and remind you how all of this writing of new insurance originated.

Your creation of District Meetings actually was at the bottom of this wondrrfal record you have achieved of greater volume of new membership and supported in the SPJST. The creation of your District Organizers which was authorized in your Convention and the creation of your officers of the Supreme Lodge headquarters as state organizer which was authorized in Temple is one of the biggest results why we are writing insurance. There is another accessory that should be mentioned and that is the building of the Rest Home in

Strana 14 Taylor, It has been very beneficial to our society and helped us.

"The creation of the Rest Home besides giving us a good name as humanitarian and benevolents I have belief that every organizer in our midst will agree that the Rest Home is helping to sell insurance. No one person can take credit for it. The artore that we can go forward, the more that we can talk about our SPJST that is what is making us grow and we all naturally have to work together to do it. In unity there is strength. The reason I am pointing this out it for our new Convention coming up next June at San Antonio. Please irehearse yourselves, members to stand bethind the organizational movement that has been started and give it the financial backing that it needs.

Regarding the Surplus money in of reserve, Brother Cerny said: "Whenevey you pay out of the surplus $200,000 to put it to work in humanity and benevolence, you certainly have not thrown that money away."

Brother Pokladnik thanked Brother Cerny, saying, "No one individual can do anything by himself, it takes all the members working together to show progress."

Brother Rudy Shefcik of Houston said: "Brother Cerny told you about the District Officers and I would like to give you the "regrets" of the Skrabaneks are not here today; they are ill.

I would like to thanke the ladies for this meal. I think that we owe Brother Vrla a very nice hand; he was responsible for this gathering and I think that all of you organizers of District Three also we're supporting him.

I am going back to say this much:. when we first started out I didn't think any of us had an idea that we would get to know each other as well as we do, It is something you don't forget.

Thanks again and I wish you the best of luck and your gathering much luck." Speaking in Czech, Brother Shetick said: "Let us not let an opportunity pass without making as much progress in our coming Convention as in the last Vonvention." Brother Shefcik complimented District Youth Leaders Ceska and Petr as the most important people to the Youth in this District.

Sister Maxine Shefcik spoke: "I sincerely want to thank District Three for have shown us today. I also am happy to see Sister Ceska able to be here and that applies for everyone in District Three. I also appreciate your Sister Petr. They are certainly doing a: wonderful work in the District. They are the most outstanding in our state. We are always happy to come to District Three for

VESTNi — WEST, TEXAS you are really wonderful."

"Thank you sister and brother from District Five," continued the Master of Ceremonies, "who are with us and we send our regrets to those who were not with us today. Brother Cerny, please convey or message, (hoW sorry we were that they were not able to be with us.

Also to the Officers of the Supreme.

Lodge our thanks for being here today and for always taking time to be at these occasions; for making them successful. To our Organizers, our fraternal friends, thanks, for being here today.

TA the sisters and brothers of Lodge Jaro 130, thanks for preparing this banquet Which was so very good and to Sokol Zizka and Lodge 130 for having us.

"I want to remind you, that our District Three Meeting will be: held March 27th in West, Texas at Lodge Jaromir 54. Each lodge is to have a mesr4ber designated to represent their lodge on this day." said Brother Pokladnik. "It has has been a wonderful day, thank you."

Wednesday, March 9, 1960 your own ihands," stressed Brother Vrla.

Lovely Sister Jerry Ann Urban, Queen for 1959 of Lodge 84 then congratulated the organizers of District Three and District Five and all •other SPJST organizers for the wonderful work they have done.

Brother Pokladnik takes the microprone to call for all candidates for the Miss SPJST title present to come forward and be presented. Sister La Nell Ceska representing Waco Lodge No. 66 Jeanie Hubik of Cottonwood No. 6, Jean Anne Kartous of Dallas Lodge 130; Denne Vrla of Dallas Lodge Jaro 130, Jerry Ann Urban of Dallas Lodge Pokrok 84, took a bow.

Brother Pokladnik then explained about the "points" system upon which these candidates will be counted. "There will be no points counted unless this candidate brings the prospects herself to the organizer, so remember, to be true and fair, these young ladies must present the prospect and from there the organizer of the lodge will contact the prospect and if the prospect is sold, that candidate will receive credit. Remember, that the candidate must present the prospect to receive the credit."

Brother Arnold Vrla said, "Thank you Brother Pokladnik for presenting this program, it was nice working with you I think it was a wonderful success.

Brother Vrla, then introduced the Youth Leader of Lodge 130, Sister Martha Vrla. "On bethalf of our Youth Club, of 130 I would like to extend cordial welcome to officers of the Supreme Lodge, members and friends of District Five and Three. For your entertainment we have arranged a short program with sister Bessie Petr of Lodge

It was mentioned at this occasion that the Houston Lodge Pokrok 88 will observetheir 50th Anniversary on April 30 and May 1st in Houston and everyone is herewith being invited to be with them on those two days.

Brother Arnold Vrla takes over the microphone saying "Thank you Brother Pokladnik for officiating and officers from the Supreme Lodge and Speakers, I appreciate every bit of it. As has been expressed, things like this cannot be done alone and that is just how District Three has been working; the members —wonderful organizers, lodges, district officers and everyone alike, pulling by the line; that is the only way 84. that we can continue to grow and make.

Fraternally, Stanley Patak Director Northern Dist. ) • 43 • ( SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS Sisters and Brothers: I know I am little late with my annual report this time, I am sorry and I apologize for the delay. As an excuse I wish to mention that when I was checking my records with the list from our Supreme Lodge, I found some errors, so I decided I had better check everything with Brother Hejny, our VicePresident. This naturalily caused the delay, and I hope you will excuse me.

VtSTNIK WEST, TEXAS Frank C. Sackey, from Lodge Corpus Christi, No. 79 who was the winner in 1958. Congratulations Frank, I am very satisfied; frankly said, you have even suprised me, because sickness and operation you had to undergo were antwelcomed circumstances keeping you from making your goal. New, when everything is over and you are feeling all right again, I am sure you will give a little headache to Charlie Novosad.

But, he is ready, he said he will strain every nerve to keep his trophy.

The number three honor goes to Slster, Arnold,Franek, from Lodge Taft, No. 137 Taft. Sister Franek is one of the few organizers who have been so consistently active in advancing the inn-rests of SPJST, Who have given so much ti'ooe and attention to organizational work, and who have worked hard to bring more new mershers into our organization. Very nice, Sister Franck, congratulations.

Many, many thanks and appreciation to you three, as well as to all organizers named above. As you know, ov er quota for 1959 was $200,000.00. Because your cooperation was splendid, and you were extremely active, the total insurance written i now' district in 1959 was $307,5000.00 that means 1553/4 per sent.

Slaters and brothers, this result needs no further explanation. If we will work with the same enthusiasaa also in this year, then it is beyond all question that our district will not only meet the new quota of $210,000.00, but probably go over again.

In fact, we had $4,000 of insurance more, making a total of $311,500:00.

But these , $4,500.00 were written to °tin er districts (Lod ges No, 81 and 85) with no credit to our district. Otherwise, we would have $2,000 more than district one, not $2,000 less, as shown in the final list. Then, of course, instead of losing my personal bet with Brother V. H. Barina, I would have won. In other words, judging according to the highest amount actually written, the district seven organizers have beaten district one. Congratulations, Brother Barina, to your district, your organizers have shown a good work, you can be proud of them.

Well, on top is Brother Charlie Novosad, from Lodge La Parita No. 161 Jourdanton. His hard work and incessant desire to be the No. one organizer of the district has been successful. Congratulations, Charlie, I am very proud of The following are the Sisters and you, and I hope you will not rest now but continue with the same intentions Brothers I rewarded with special prizes in your excellent work. A few weeks ago (see Vestnik No. 12, issued March 25, I asked Brother Charlie Novosad to send 1952: They are: 1. Charlie, Novosad me his picture for the Vestnik, but up 2. Frank C.

V S T N f K- WEST, TEA

Wednesday, March 9, 1960

Brothers and Sisters, Our Sister Anna Milan, and her beloved Uncle Joe, vy,o form a team which has made her top woman organizer in our `Fraternal C)rr.Lr, requested the Editor that he publish in the Vestnik the plight of her granddaughter, Marilyn Milan only three years old. The article is self explanatory.

TWO MEDALS There are two cherished medals in the Joe G. Milan borne at 5016 Terrace Tr., Sansom Park.

One is large. It tells how 3-year-old Marilyn Milan was naTied Little Miss Fort Worth of 1959.

The little girl, who already knows her ABC's and can stay in the lines when she colors was crowned, was crowned by the Rebeckah's after hundreds of children competed throughout the city area last winter.

Besides beauty, health was a major factor. All the finalists had to have a thorou0 physical examination. Contest judges named a group of doctors for the look-see. Marilyn emerged in perfect health.

The other medal in the Milan house is a tiny one.

Marilyn wears it now, to help ward off death.

It's the medal of the Miraculous Infant of Prague. Brought here from Czechoslovagia many years ago by Father Emil Garlick who then was with St. Thomas Catholic Church, it bears a likeness of Jesus as a boy.

An award_winning picture of health until three :months ago, Marilyn has become the victim of a rare disease. The marrow in her bones has stoppe.d, like a lot of little clocks inside her that need rewinding.

It is in the marrow that blood is pro duced. Without the marrow at work,

Marilyn's blood stream gels no oxygen.

It can't fight off infections. It can't stop 'hemorrhages, The 'disease is called applastic anemia. Doctors here and in Dallas who are caring for her say that only slightly more than 25 per cent of its victims recover.

At first Marilyn Milan's family feared leukemia — cancer of the blood.

"We received word after extensive tests," Mrs. Milan remembers, "on Thanksgiving Day that it was not leukemia. We wept through our meal with thanksgiving."

Mrs. Milan, also mother of. 13-year-old Carolyn Ann, is a beautiful woman wuose fact, these days, is often smudged with, tears, as it was again this week when Marilyn was taken to the Wadley

Blood Center in Dallas for another transfusion. She has had several.

Doctors there believe she might face many more. Another future possibility in the center which specializes in cancer research is the transplanting of 'live bone marrow into the tiny joints of Marilyn's, body.

Mr. Milan is a plumbing and heating contractor. Although his work has been slowed down by winter weather, he is managing to keep up with mounting medical bills.

"Blood is what we mostly need," he said. "Friends promise to donate blood to replace what Marilyn requires. Then they forget."

Blood donations may be made in Marilyn's name, for her own account,

Wednesday, March 9, 1960 in the Carter Blood Center, 1263 W. Rosedale.

As Marilyn takes 16 pills a day and spends most of the time playing "doctor" the comfortable Milan home is empty looking . They moved to Sansom Park from the South Salo shortly before the disease struck.

"We've had to hold off buying our furniture," Mrs. Milan explains, "because of expenses."

It's hard for a 3-year-old to learn not to run or to play at games 'where she ndght pick up a bruise. The slightest amount of jostling can cause the telltale purple marks on her pretty skin that mean she is bleeding inside.

Mary Jean Renfro, 15, her cousin and godmother, gave Marilyn the medal of the Miraculous Infant of Prague, after carrying it for years.

Marilyn wears it all day long and through every night, on a safety pin.

To the very best of her 3-year-old know lelge, it is the medal, not the trips to the doctors, that someday may make well again.

The Joe Milans are parents of eight husky children, all living, and adopted parents to three additional lovely chiLdren of Mr. Milan's late sister. All of them including their progeny are sturdy as oaks, only little Marilyn, now has contracted this strange malady.

So, in the name of humanity, compassion and love for God's little ones, we bring this before you.

It seems that the immediate need is blood, for Marilyn has the best medical knowledge working for her. She also needs brothers and sisters, our concerted prayers — the miracle of prayer—to intercede for her, won't you join the brotherhood in prayer for Marilyn Milan of Forth Worth? Bless you! ) • 4 LODGE NO. 38 KOVAR, TEXAS Dear Sisters and Brothers: I will try to bring you some news from our Lodge. In our meeting we meenbers were surprised by our Brother Kotulan and his wife who brought a very delicious cake and some coffee, it was really good. I sure enjoyed it and I know the others did also. Many thanks to the Kotulans. They live in Lockhart and they come to our meetings regularly.

I am asking you members kindly to keep up with your payments. It takes so much writing and mailing of notices, so please, try to keep up with your dues.

If you will look at your last receipt, you can tell when it is time to pay your dues again. Other Insurance Companies wouldn't be as patient as we are.

Our lodge lost two good members in

VESTNIK — WEST, TEXAS two week's time and, they were father and son: Mr. Charlie Ivliculka of Shiner who was the son of Charlie Miculka Sr. of Smithville. Brother Miculka attended his son's funeral. In these last few years we have lost a lot of members.

On February 16, sister Mary Stepan and I went to a nice wedding at Plum, Texas. Mr. Max 1, a uk and Miss Elsie Franta were aaarried. The bride and groom looked very nice and after all the wedding gifts were opened, the bride thanked everyone in English and the bridegroom in Czech. The grand march was led by the groom's sister and her husband. Mr. and Mrs. Koenig of La Grange. It was really grand. Mary Stepan and I didn't march, because we were marching around the stove all day frying chickens but we still enjoyed the wedding. Mary and 'I are like two bums.

How 'does everyone like the weather?

Isn't everything decorated beautifully even though it is cold, which I guess will continue into the morning. I'm getting tired of this "wood business" make wood, then feed the cows, by the time y ou feed and carry wood to the porch you feel like a frozen cucumber.

I looked at the calendar and noticed that Easter is on April 17th. That is the Third. Sunday so why not have a lunch and. Easter Egg Hunt on our regular Meeting 'date of April 10th? Let's try to come to our next meeting and vote on it. I hope by that time the flu and all of those bad colds will be gone — maybe the freeze will kill it.

I almost forgot to compliment Brother V. H. Barina on his fine speech at Brother Miculka's funeral. I feel as thoegh I have forgotten soaae news, but I'll probably think about it after this letter is gone.

So, until next time, I send my best wishes to all of the Vestnik's readers and lots of good luck.

Fraterally, Lillie Evicic • 4 • ( LODGE VESELI, BRENHAM, TEXAS Dear Editor, Brothers and Sisters, Well we really had bad weather here this year. If it is not raining it is cold and cloudy or snowing. That groud hog should have stayed in instead of showing up its shadow. Everything is being delayed in the garden and also field work. There are no early potatoes this year. As those that had them up lost them, They froze to the ground. Several farmers complained about their cattle feed running short especiall the hay.

Well I regret that I couldn't be in our last meeting, but still am happy to say that I am doing fairly well after my knee surgery. Today is just three weeks since that operation. I was in the hos-

We have an active insurance saleslady, she is listed fifteenth' and has some more prospects at present.

They are donated by some member of the group. Our next meeting will again be held at the Ewell's borne Saturday March 12th and we hope we can have our later meetings at the Park kitchen if the weather is warmer by then.

Wednesday, March 9, 1960 luck Dorothy. I have also information from Snook Youth Club that they have chosen their candidate for Miss SPJST Contest. Sure hope that some more of our lodges in this district will have a candidate at our spring meeting which will be held at, Bleiblerville on May 15th.

Our Youth Club is sponsoring a dance tomorrow night at our hail, this is the first dance and I sure hope that it will be a success. All the children are to have gathered there tonight to decorate and I bet that they are having a time.

The refreshment and kitchen cammittee chairman Ma. arid Mrs. Charlie Cech are asking all the woman of our lodge to donate the following items if you so please. We need forks, cups, saucers, large bowls, salad spons or forks and dish towels or hand towels. Many of these things have already been donated but we still need more of these for our kitchen. So if you have some odd items in this line that you would like to give and they need not be new, please bring them to our next meeting or contact Mrs. Charlie Cech TA 2-1839 and she will have some one pick them up at your home. Thank you in advance.

Remember our Grand Opening of our new hall coming up May 29th. Get some thing ready for our bazaar for each member should have at least one item to give to our bazaar in order to raise some money. A very nice lady told me the other day that she already has a hand made quilt ready for us. With people like this helping, how can we go wrong. I have said this before but must say it again that we have a wonderful group of people here at our lodge working. We had kolaches which have been donated at every one of our dances and more women have said that they are ready to bring some, to let them know when we need them.

By the way don't forget we are all to bring a snack, with us to our next monthly meeting and have a coffee break after the meeting. If this is favorable with most of the members I think it would be nice to have after every meeting: Well here comes the kids so I might as well close and get ready for bed.

Mr. and Mrs. John F. Stolle Jr. of Austin became the proud parents of a 8 pound, 2 ounce baby boy born February 22nd at Seaton hospital in Austin and was named David Lynn. He is being welcoued by older brother John Michael. Grandparents are Mr. and Mrs. John Stolle of Smithville and Mr. and Mrs. Adolph Fischer of Rogers.

Time is growing short and tempers the same, on the registration of boats under the Texas Water Safety Law. April 1 is the deadline, the same as registering your automobile,.

The state is pretty unhappy about the way the boat owners are cooperating — they aren't.

The last report shows just over 35.000 of the 213,000 boats in the state have been registered and numbers assigned.

Maybe a part of the confusion of not registering a boat comes froxi the fact that boat owners are not sure what size boat has to be registered.

Actually the boat has nothing to 'd0 with registering the craft — it's the size of the motor that counts.

If the motor is a 10 horsepower or less, the boat can be 40 feet long and not have to be registered under the new law.

But if tree motor is more than 10 horsepower a number is needed even if it's used in the bathtub.

Lights are another item that has boat owners dizzy.

If the craft is going to be used after the sun goes down the boat must bear one of more lights, according to the law.

But if the) boat is never on the water at night there is really no need for lights. But it would be the safe way to go ahead and install lights One good feature is that all law enforcement officers have been charged with making the law stick.

The officers and civilians can file complaints a gainst a Safety Law violator.

There are a number of hitches in the law and without a doubt the law will be changed and improved during the next session of the state legislature.

You don't have to register your boat but that "good morning judge" you may be having to say makes it harder to refuse to get the numbers for your craft.
