Kolem ni se hernSily lodly vaelijakeho tvaru i velikosti, jako male rybidky ikolena velryby. A parnik Wilhelm der Grosse, majestatne si odfukoval sjiZdel do uncle, Jeriko2 bylo k vederu, cestujici krasnYr obraz: selene brehy, p osete pdknYmi budovami a stromovim byly zality sluneanim zlatem zapadajiciho slunce. JakY to byl krasny pohled a jak smutnY pro Jenika.

Obiral se domovem, stoje u zabradli.

Vzpominal — a jako on, stah nepohnute bete slova i OstrYch a ostatni vystehovalci. S mizichni brehy mizela jim ()tam. S mizicinii bkehy mizela jistota Sivotni; co opouateli vedeli — co je deka, bylo zahaleno rouakou tajemstvi.

Domov opouateli: jedni aby Si Sivotni postaveni zlepaili, aby si v to slate Americe polepaili a pomohli jini aby se shleclali se s yYmi pribuznYmi. Jenik vaak opouatel dobrY domov — jen proto, Se se spikly proti nemu derne Buse, aby jej znidily, nebo a,spori, aby jej pripravily o to, co mu bylo tak drahYm, o jeho Anoka.

OdjiSdel, aby pracoval a aby moil Anidku vyrvati z toho celeho viru a aby ji mohl pkipraviti po svem boku dobrY domov. Jej netiSil nedostatek, jej nevyharela bida; jej vyhanrili zli lido. To jej zlobilo; prod se najdou na .svete de, kteri otravuji druhYm jejich Zivot? prod takovi lido jsou na svete vubec?

Zadal reptati a hlas ten byl tim gi, dim vice se vzdalovali, bylo videti Bremen jen tak nejiste, jiZ zmizeiy pomalu vgechny lakehy a bylo videti, jak po maim, vystupuje z vody pisedne bahnite dno pobkezni. Lod' sklouzla do more a bylo pozorovati lined zmenu v barye vody. Cim pak dale pluli, tim voda dostavala lep gi morskou barvu.

Zvonilo se k vederi a Jenik mel to gtesti, 2e se dostal za prvni stuff, t. j. jeho misto bylo hued pri prvnim zaseciami. a zaroveri s nim se dostali ke stejnemu $tolu OstrYch. Zaradovali se oboji: "Bude nim veseleji," kekl Jenik.

Jenik se zamyslil. Jake. to velika idska to divky. A co si mysli, Se on by mohl zapornenouti? Nikdy. — Napsal fined vaem odpovecii, jelikoS mel na druhY den k vederu nastoupit na lod' 'a Ostdch men rano privezti yeci.

Takova podivana touha jej pojala, aby se zvedl a rozejel dorna. Ale lined zase se opkel jeho throb: "Ne, vratim se, aS budu moci ukazati Se nee() znamenam —" Na druhY den prijel OstrST s rodinou a privezi kufr. Jenik byl tedy zamestnan, nebot" musil kufr dodati do skla,cliate spoledriosti k naloieni na lod' do kabiny.

Odpoledne pak, rozloudiV se jeate s dp. Prachakem, odebral se k lod, Ohrom ny obr stal, uvaza,n u bkehu a nazem z neho byl poloSen most.

Jenik se pkipojil k nekterYrn skupinam deskYch yystehovalca a pohliSel zvedave na ten ruch, bylo mu to neco novella. Take ostatni vystehovalci a hlavne deti byli cell udiveni nad celYm tim jednanim. Oestujici v mezipalubi byli jiS na lodi a bylo je videti stati v jejich oddeleni na palube.

Koneene nastala doba odjezdu a piat'ala lodni se ozvala dutYrn hlasem. Jenik i ostatni cestujici se rosloueili a ji'S stoupali po mustku na loci'. Tam se u zabradli zastavili, aby posledni s Bohem dali dp. Prachakovi. Ten jim tive kynul s bkehu, jenS, jak -se zdalo, propadl vedle toho lochnho obra do hrozne hloubky.

QUARTERLY MEETING OF THE SUPREME LODGE AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS Sisters and Brothers, After our Board of Directors made their quarterly inspection into our Supreme Lodge affairs, results of which will be published in a separate report by our Board of Directors, in this issue, a meeting of the Supreme Lodge was held Thursday, July 14 at the headquarters in Temple, Texas.

Reports of the Officers and their activities were given and accepted afte the minutes of the previous Board Meeting were read and approved with some minor changes.

All of the reports from the different department-heads were very encouraging and decisions insuring further progress of our brotherhood were made.

Our President Marek thanked all of the Directors for their good efforts and especially to the out-going Directors for their conscientious and faithful years of work for our fraternity . They were invited to stay with us during the January Meeting, but all of this will be properly described in detail by our Secretary, Brother Chupick in his report to the membership which will appear in the Vestnik shortly.

WORKSHOP HELD FOR NEW ORGANIZERS IN WACO AREA West, Texas District. Three Organizer Brother Arnold Vrla, held a workshop for newly appointed organizers in his District in the Waco area, Friday, July 8, 1960, at the Lodge Hall of Jaromir No. 56, West, Texas.

Brother Vrla distributed forms on the various policies available and gave these new men pointers on. what to watch for, what to do and what not to do, in signing up new applicants.

The brother organizers listened attentively and fired questions at him without a moment's hesitation; to make for a very informative session.

Brother Vrla touched upon new features offered in our policies in the last Convention which our organizers welcome, for ceilings have been raised or removed on many of our policies, giving the applicant many enticing choices.

It is always a pleasure to sit in on Brother Vrla's organizer school, for he comes well prepared with all of his material mimeographed and at hand to cover the most ground in the least time.

That's top planning, such as a busy executive in , a, large organization uses when he calls a meeting.

Congratulations to District Three organizers for having this dynamic young man to lead them — may their success as organizers under his guidance be as outstanding as is Brother Vrla, ) • 40 • ( LODGE 84 DALLAS, TEXAS July 30 Saturday, Teen-Age Club Princess Dance Music By Mr. John Rejeek's Orchestra August 6 Saturday — Dance — Music by Ed Faraizl Orchestra August 20 Saturday -- Dance — Music by Eric Honza August 21 Sunday — Monthly Meeting — 4:00 p.m. and Family Night September 3 Saturday — Dance — Music by Ed Rejcek's Orchestra (pending) September 17 Saturday — Dance — Music by Ed.

127 Million Americans Own Life Insurance One hundred and twenty-seven m illion Americans — approximately seventenths of the U.S. population — owned some $600,000,000,000 of life insurance protection at the start of this year. Of this amount, 90 per cent or $512,000,000,000 was owned by 115,000,000 policyholders of the legal reserve life insurance companies Fraternal and 'assessment societies, savings banks and veteran's life insurance' provided the remainder.

These figures are reported in the 1960 Life' Insurance Fact Book, published this week by the Institute of Life Insurance.

The tremendous growth of life insurance in the past decade is also highlighted in the new Fact Book. The increase in life insurance in force with the legal reserve life' companies during the 1950's was greater than the total amount outstanding at the start of the decade.

Insured. American families have increased their average ownership of life insurance to $11,900 at the start of this year, more than twice the average amount held by the insured family at the start of 1950.

Also reported is the final figure on new purchases of life insurance, a record $70,854,000,000 of new ordinary, group and industrial protection. This is more than three times the purchases made ten years before . Nearly three-fourths of the life insurance acquired by American families in 1959 was individually purchased ordinary life insurance. It was reported that the impact of new policy features with increased emphasis on comprehensive family planning is reflected in these ordinary gains.

Group life insurance was shown to have increased in importance to the financial security picture of millions of American families during the decade of the 1950's reaching a new high of $159,807,000,000 at the start of 1960, four times the amount owned ten years before. Industrial insurance ownership 'at the beginning of the year was $39,688,000,000. While 24 per cent more than at the start of 1950, this was little changed from the figures of the past four years.

The flow of life insurance benefits paid to American families, as reported by the Fact Book, reached a record peak of $7,531,000,000 under life insurance policies and annuity contracts. Close to 60 per cent of this total represented "living" benefits paid to policyholders themselves.

My subject today is "Contribution of the Czech settlers in the United States to American culture and civilization."

Because I personally enjoy history, it was a special pleasure to me to review, some of the invaluable contributions that you of Czech descent have made to our American way of life. No group has done more. You and your forebears, with your great appreciation of music and love of liberty, have followed the axiom — "America is a tune that must be sung together."

Strana 15 settlers played in the struggle to pioneer this state, Back when the infant Republic of Texas was born, Czech pioneers were sharing the burdens of whatever had to be done. When the curtain rose in 1835 for the first act of the Texas Revointion, General Sam Houston issued the r; first call for volunteers from the United States.

"Come with good rifles and come soon," was the manner of the call — a battle slogan of liberty. And there were.

Czechs listed among the soldiers in General Houston's army. They "came .' soon" and many of them "with good rifles."

An 80-year-old Texas pioneer said some years ago that there are few people who really snow Texas history. He continued: "Texas history is unwritten; it cannot be written. In the years known as the , '30s' and '40s', even later, Texas history was being enacted chapter by chapter — the sort of history that makes nations."

Yes — the story of the Czech settlement of Texas is a part of the history of the settlement of the Lone Star State. But it is only one chapter in the in colorful histor y of Czech settlers «twain,

America Because of understanding of the soil and handicraft, they settled much, of America's finest farmland — built homes and churches. Reading clubs and fraternal or benevolent organizations were formed to coordinate the common effort. The growth, influence, and comprehension of these organizations, beginning with a deep resepect for spiritual and educational needs, patterned a Czech design for living.

Czechs have proven to be of all European peoples, the best fitted for Democratic government. When Jan Masaryk, then Minister of Foreign Affairs of Czechoslovakia, made an offiejal visit to Texas in 1942, it was revealed that in certain precincts in Texas, where the voting was solidly Czech that nearly every citizen had paid a poll tax and that in elections, every single eligible vote was cast down to the last exemption.

This is a remarkable record in participation in our government by consent of the governed. All Texans should respect and follow your example.

One of the first men of Czech ancestry to take a position of leadership in America was William. Paca, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence and a member of the Maryland Convention that ratified the Constitution of the United States.

The Declaration of Independence, which, William Paca signed, not only announced the birth of a new nation, it set forth a philosophy of human freedom which was thenceforth. to be a dynamic force in the entire Western world.

It rested, not upon particular grievances but upon a broad basis of individual liberty, which could command general support throughout America.

Its ideals inspired mass fervor for the American cause, for it instilled among ordinary folks a sense of their own personal freedom, self-government and a dignified place in society. It gave to the individual a personal cause, and at the .a.-ne time strengthened the bond of freedom in government.

It was into the climate which was activated by the Declaration of Incle, pendence which Czech pioneerS came and took prominent places in our national development. They had the strength and the genius to rise above circumstances of life, acquire knowledge, however opposed by difficulties, and advanced their stations in life. Many have become governmental leaders.

Among the representatives in Congress of Czechoslovak descent have been John Joseph Babka of Ohio; John W. Kittera, and his son, Thomas, from

Wisconsin; Anthony Michalek of Illinois; Adolph Joseph Sabath of Illinois; Karl Stefan of Nebraska.

It is an interesting note that during the decade of 1900 to 1910, when immigration was at its peak, the Czechs were the immigrants with the highest in percentage of skilled labor.

The Czechs brought to America a peaceful and receptive mood of patriotism. The basic human needs of food, shelter, defense, and rest absorbed most of their energies.

One unassumming gift they did bring with them — a mighty contribution such as may be regarded basically aesthetic and definitely enriching the multiform culture of their new homeland — the Czech folk song. The values contained in the fabric and patterns of folk song, which, in every country and every culture constitute an important phase of literary and musical art, perhaps needs no real emphasis.

By the end of the 18th century, the Czechs were already famous through-

Charles Burney, reportedly the first Anglo-Saxon music historian to set foot on Bohemian soil, called the country in 1771 the conservatory of Europe. He was amazed by the musical education of the people, and also by the scope, breadth, and melodic richness of the country's musical expression.

It would be almost unheard of in 1960, if any symphony orchestra in the United States did not contain among its outstanding personnel several Czech musicians.

The music which emanates from the spirit of a people who have believed in their future for generations — a people who want to live in quiet and peaceful industry and cultural completeness —cannot be silenced.

The industrial skills of the Czechs benefited. America from earliest times, including mining, metallurgy, ceramics, and the glaSs industry. The beginning of the glass industry dates from the 17th

Among the great teachers and scholars in our American universities are Czechs who are eminent in the fields of botany, history, physics, zoology, bacteriology, political science, and education.

The pioneer of college and university professors was Karol M. Hruby, who immigrated in 1834. In 1852, Hruby received a call from Miami College (now Miaini University) at Oxford, Ohio, to teach several European languages and literatures. I have had time to name only a few of the most famouS. What then is the gift of the Czechs to America? Love of music and of art?

Intentiveness? Industry? Love of the land? Talent for organization, the evidence of which, we find in the SPJST? All of these and more. But the most valuable contribution to building up our nation were brawn, determination and skill.

Into the climate of our democratic political institutions came the Czechs to become shareholders in our common democracy. We are all immigrants, or descendants of immigrants. Nine nation-. elides were attiong the si gners of the Great Decleration of Independence I mentioned earlier in this speech. America was built by immigrants and th it sons and daughters -- not only the physical America of rich farms, great f etonics, and social and political eminence, but the America of music, art and literature.

I also want to thank all the parents for helping the children with their numbers and bringing them to the rehearsals. Without their help the job would not be well done.

A Teen-age Dance is planned for July 15 and a swimming party later for the youth club and their friends, so remember, the dates, boys and girls, and you all be sure and come and bring a friend.

We also want to thank Brother Rudolph Krizan for bringing Sister Janie Hubik our former District Three Queen to the SPJST Convention in San Antonio for two days and for her representing the District as well as our Lodge there, while attending the crowning of Miss SPJST. We enjoyed the Convention very much.

Fraternally yours, Ruth Krizan, Youth Leader and Reporter

AXTELL, TEXAS — LODGE NO. 35 Dear Brothers and Sisters, It is, indeed, a pleasure to Vvrite about our Lodge and the honor goes to the ones who have worked so hard and made it active after its being inactive for so many years.

Our Third of July Celebration was a surprise to me for it was a very outstanding one!

We had a fine group of ladies preparing the foods and working in the kitchen. Many thanks to them.

Sister Em‘erya Ceska, District Three Youth Director was with us. She had help organize our Youth Club in February. Sister Ceska had done her part in building up the Linden Hall Youth Club, Lodge 66, which is her home lodge, to where it now stands.

My family is 100 per cent SPJST and is rather active.

Yours truly, Lodge 35 Member (No Signature) Note: Please kindly note that all Lodge Reports must be signed. ) eTe •( BRYAN, TEXAS Dear Brothers and Sisters, After a lively and very successful meeting yesterday I am there to report on some of the things that are going on here to in our lodge and in our district.

Our dances are coming along very good and the result is that we are paying our debt to the Supreme Lodge at a terrific speed . If you really want to know just how much, please come to our monthly meetings where a report is made ocery month. Also as most of you know it costs a great deal of money to equip our hall and have the yard level-

Strang ed and graveled, This is due to the good work of all our members and we are real proud of them all. Thanks to every one that helped with the initiation of our new members, especially to the good ladies that brought the salads and sweets. Also special thanks go to Brother Marek and his dear wife, Brother Hejny and Brother Urbanovsky who came out to help us at this occasion.

Now, I want to announce that our district youth will have a day of Youth Activity on October 9, 1900. Please keep this day in mind and make all necessary Preparations so that we will make this day a success. This will be our first time for such an affair and if this goes over we should have one day set aside every year Iran now on.

We request that all contestants have their entries at our Lodge Hall No 39 Ball, Bryan, Texas (where it will be held) no later than 9 a.m. Judging will begin at 10 a.m. sharp so if you are late you may lose out on a prize. We will have three judges that will be picked from people that are not connected with the SPJST in any way and that know as few of our people as possible. This is in order that there will be no partiality shown by the judges. The judges selections will be final. We will have first prizes, in each event of $5.00, a second prize of $3.00 and third prize of $2.00 and each participant will receive a small prize of money regardless whether he wins or not. Each child within the age of 3 to 20 may enter as many entries as they wish but only one to each different Contest. Rules must be followed to the letter, if not, the child may be disqualified.. Each child will fill out a printed form card which will be checked by Brother Hejny and myself to See if it is in order, then it will be placed in a sealed envelope and attached to child's entry and placed where it belongs. After the judges have selected their prize winners, all envelopes will be opened and placed on top of items where they can be viewed by the public.

Children's entries will be divided into three age groups. Ages from 8 to 11; 12 to 10; and 17 to 20 . Starting at 10:00 a.m, judging of the art work, and handcraft or hobby. Lunch will be served from 11:30 to 1:30 and then we will go into.the judging of speaches, singing or music, modeling of clothes and last but not least the dancing contest. Dancing will consist; of Bop, Polka, Waltz and if the child has had some training in darning this may be presented in the singing or music contest.

Right after the , dancing contest lunch will be served again and preparations will be made for the dance which will

VE STNIK — WEST, TEXAS

start at 8:00 o'clock and just before the dance starts the queen of our district and all her princesses will be presented.

I hope that Brother Hejny will serve as our Master of Ceremonies for the selecting of our queen. The requirements to qualify for a princess are as follows: 1. She must be 13 to 20 years of age (inclusive on the day the contest begins) 2. Must be a member of the lodge she represents.

3. Her escort must also be a member of her lodge. This contest to start Algust 1st and e.nd Sept. 28, all applications dated Aug. 1 and all post marked not later than Sept28th will be counted in the contest.

Points will he awarded as follows: 1. One point for every $100.00 of insurance sold by organizer of her lodge.

2, Two points if member buys additional insurance. 3. Four points for each new member secured.

4. Ten points for each member secured by the princess herself. All lodges that plan to have a princess running for the district queen, please chose your princess before the contest starts, so this girl can get right to work and have an equal chase as the rest

Women's Nook 1,171; ST, TEXAS Dear Girls: Most of you have by now finished your canning and are sitting back with satisfaction at a long hot job done. Others of you, like myself, planted very little vegetables this spring, and are therefore down to buying even the fruit in cans.

Recently I checked my peach trees for the ripeness of the peaches and low I found that the grasshoppers were stripping the green leaves from the trees, eating the hard green peaches right off the tree, leaving only the peach seed still attached to the tree. They're eating the grass, the leaves on the iris and what the bagworras don't get the grasshoppers will.

All or most of the hackberry trees here in West are fall of bagworms

which are ruining these large shade trees unless they get sprayed this fall and early next spring to control the insects and disease most of them seem to have they will die. Trying to spray a 30 foot shade tree is almost impossible unless one gets professional help, which can run into money, It seems that if one doesn't spray everything in sufficient strength it can't survive the attack by its natural insect pasts, You can see now bow dangerous food sprayed can become to individuals if the residue remains on the food Soon we shall be dividing iris plants for they do multiply rapidly and in order to keep these blooming, they must be divided. Riding on the road one sees washouts and gullies being planted to cane, wild roses, wild plum trees, etc., to hold the top sod and prevent it from washing into the creeks and rivers. It just occurred to me, and I've talked.

Chas. Holasek about it here at West, how nice it would be if instead of throwing away the surplus irises, the farmers planted these tubers in these washes for they have top roots, are most excellent for soil erosion prevention and are not so unsightly as gully full of tall shoot cane, not to mention the lovely blooms which would enhance the place. Irises are very hardy, cattle won't bother them, at least mine didn't and they do add to the The Democratic Convention held my interest, in the various arguments, reports and see-sawing of votes of the coveted delegate. Of course, until the vote was cast, it was not "home" and some delegates enjoyed being wooed by both sides. It brought to mind bow nice it is to sit back and watch instead of participating in such a, Convention.

I'm grateful for the confidence shown the Editor by his re-election, lae; as-

Wednesday, July 20, 1960 sured the editorship isn't exactly easy, and I am looking forward to another four wounderful years working with you in your fraternal activities for the good of this Order of ours.

To be a leader in any business, one has to constantly keep on his toes, weighing ideas then trying them. Once they prove successful, anyone can follow suite — and our Order has proven its ability to be a pathfinder for others to follow. This takes the good will and cooperation of every individual, each in his or her place, doing her on his small part, to keep the ball rolling, so any success our Order has, is your success also.

In these critical times, these times of turmoil and angry emotions of people and countries, it's a haven to have a place to go where congenialty still prevails, where folks are glad to see one another, enjoy their youth in their lodge activities, and watch our Order grow.

It's like a ship coming into a snug harbour during a storm. All these storms and revolts will resolve themselves, people will find the peace and liberty they are looking for, but in the meantime our fraternal societies are our counterbalance to calm and sane living, until that time. Let's keep it that way.

This is the month of tomatoes. Folks are eating them in dozens of ways, but the most appetizing, quick and cool way is to make a salad, cubed with left over meats, or sausage, slices of cheese, hard boiled eggs diced and held together with mayonnaise or salad dressing make a most welcome hot day meal, nourishing and easy, I've cleaned out my refrigerator of bits of food in this manner, if your Editor suspected it, he never said a word and ate it for lunch. With toasted bread and iced tea, it makes a meal.

Hope I haven't taken too much space that I was back for four more years, this time, but want to say hello, and so girls, let the Nook blossem out with your letters. My best wishes to you for lots of good health, happiness and sunny vacations and picnic, cautioning you to take care while driving, I am The Editor's Wife ) ° 4•( WACO LODGE NO. 66 Dear Vestnik Readers, The members of Waco Lodge 66 want to congratulate Beaumont Lodge 166 and Miss Sandra Watson for being selected "Miss SPJST."

The meeting adjourned at 5:30 p.m.

A delicious sapper was served and "Progressive 42" games were played.

Our next meeting will be held August 7 at 2:30 p.m.

The regular monthly meeting of Lodge 84's Teen-Age Club was held Sunday afternoon, July 10. Many important items were discussed . Among them were the Fourth Anniversary Dance and Queen Contest and the club's annual weekend stay at a dude ranch. This year Wiley's Dude Ranch will again be host to many of our teen-age members. Following the meeting was a swimming party at the home of Joe Ondrusek. Joe's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Willie Ondrusek, are sincerely thanked for allowing the teen-agers the use of their beautiful pool. We wish to thank Miss Cathey Adamcik, Refreshment Committee Chairman, for the delicious supper that we were served. .I wish to take the opportunity to inform our readers that due to unforseen circumstances Miss Linda Moore was compelled to resign from this year's Queen Contest.

Strana 27 DALLAS, TEAS Dear Brothers and Sisters, June 26, 1960 is a day I will never forget. For, on that day District Three held its Princess Dance at which I was crowned Queen. When just a few weeks before I was given the honor of representing LLodge No. 84 of Dallas, I was very thrilled yet unsuspectille, that I would be given still another great honor.

On that day I was very happy to have as my escort Richard Sykora, President of the Teenagers of Lodge No. 84 and a very active member. He alone deserves the title of King of District Three after his many years of faithful service to SPJST. I would like gratefully to thank Mr. Emil Petr and Mr. Ben Jarmo., organizers at Lodge No. 84,,for their help and hard work. And I thank everyone who helped in any way. I know this was not just a personal honor, but a victory for the whole Lodge No. 84 because without their help I wouldn't have even been close to first place, My biggest thanks go to Lodge No. 84 for giving me the honor of representing them.

Each, lodge should be very proud to their Princess , because they were all so beautiful. Had it been a beauty contest, I'm sure the judges would have had a tough time.

If there had been given a sportsmanship award, it would have been a six way tie for the Princesses were even friendlier after the crowning than before.

They all greeted Richard and I with a sincere smile and congratulations.

Thank you Supreme Lodge for the $25 check, the SPJST necklace, and the broach and earrings. The maney will be a great help when college starts this fall And I wish to thank District Three for the crown, the billfold and the bracelet and earring set . Thank you Lodge No. 66 of Elm Mott for the beautiful bouquet of red carnations. My loving thanks to the Teenagers of No. 84 for to: bautiful bronze colored orchids that President Richard Sykora and Vice Presi .dent Joe Ondrusek. presented me. All the gifts are lovely and fit for a real queen.

My sincerest congratulations go to Sandra Watson for winning the title of Miss SPJST. I'm sure that the whole state of Texas is proud of her.

It is an honor and a pleasure to be Queen of District Three, Respectfully yours, Cathey Adamcik ° 4 °( La Parita, Texas Dear Members, Our next Youth Club meeting will be July 24, at 2:00 p.m. at the La Parita
