FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK Meeting that we have I look forward' to District Three Holds more than I did the last one. We meet lots of friends and see what other people are doing in other parts of our state. It Meeting In Dallas is really nice to talk to friends; I hope The fall meeting of District Three of our fraternal SPJST Order, held in the Sokol-Jaro Lodge Hall, on Greenville Avenue, in Dallas, Texas, Sunday, Sept.

25, 1960, to a full house.

Brother Miroslav Jurcik, President of host Lodge, Lodge Jaro 130, opened the meeting at 11 a.m. by welcoming everyone to their Lodge and asked that everyone feel right at home, with which he turned the gavel over to the District Three President, brother George Trojacek Little Kenneth Vrla of Lodge 130, led ufs all in the Pledge to the Flag; followed by an address of the presiding District Three President, brother Trojacek. .''It is, indeed, a pleasure to be here today and address you at this District Three Meeting. You came out with a good attendance; that shows that you have the interest of this District at heart, and I want to thank those who have worked with the District and made this District possible to be as big as it 14. I also want to tell you that any time any of you have any good suggestions, v., el are always glad to hear them. The field is big; you have lots of ideas; and we the officers will work with you and for you to make this District GO. Also any of you members who would rather speak in Czech; we would like to hear it. Thank you very much and we will now go on," concluded Bro. Trojacek.

District Three Director, Bro. Robert Cervenka, was introduced to take a bow; as was guest Director from District Five, ,13ro. Joe Skrabanek from Houston. Roll call of lodges present followed: Supreme Lodge Vice-President, Bro. Joe B. Hejny sent the Meeting his letter , of= regret at not being able to be present, District Three officers, Sister Secretary Dolfi Iirabina read the minutes of the last meeting which was held last March at the Lodge Jarornir 54 in West,

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE "I pledge AllegiaAce 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."

Texas, said minutes approved and accepted as read.

District Three Treasurer, Brother Ben. Jarma gives his report, likewise approved and accepted.

District Three first Vice President, Bro. Mazanec addresses the gathering: "It is always a pleasure for me to come to these meetings. As stated before at these meetings I get to see my friends which I cherish and by going to our District meetings I run across those I've not met before. This year we had a Convention in San Antonio â&#x20AC;&#x201D; we met brothers and sisters from all over the state. We really enjoyed attending this convention, it is worth your while; regardless if you are a delegate or not, if you will go to these Conventions, you will learn a lot about the business transacted; how the Committees work. I want to thank all of the delegates who voted for me in running as District Three Director; Brother Robert Cervenka. was elected your Director, I was elected alternate. If my health continues, I will probably be your net Director for. I am starting to run now. I want to thank you all, my friends, brothers and sisters who helped me. Thank you."

District Three Secretary, Sister Dolfi Hrabina/ said: "I thing that each District

that you will all have a good time here; that you will really enjoy yourselves."

District Three Treasurer, Bro. Ben Jarma followed our lovely Sister Hrabina.

"I would like to wish this meeting the success that it deserves and certainly hope that with continued effort and cooperation that our District will do as well as it has in the past but will continue to make further progress as evidenced in the Convention this past year. I want to again thank you for being here today and see youe all at the, next meeting."

District Three Organizer, Brother Arnold Vrla spoke next: "Sisters and brothers of District III, I will make my report of activities this afternoon. I don't plan making anyspeech at this time but I was talking to Bro. Hejny, Friday, he has been working in District Seven; he didn't get into Temple until late Wednesday morning and he cannot be here with us today.

"Regarding the Organization work at the Convention which took place: 1. As you know, we had a limit in the amount of insurance that we could write any one member. In the last Convention in San Antonio, the delegates voted for our SPJST to enter into a contract with another insurance company for re-insurance. (explains).

The SPJST will retain $10,000 on any policy andrr re-insure with another company any amount over the $10,000 (if the applicant can pass the required physical examination).

2. On our Non-Medical Eamination policies: We had a lio pit of $3,000 which was increased to $5,000, so up to the' age of 45, you join our Lodge and get up to $5,000 without examination.

"We cannot help but grow if we work together; stick together and play together." said Bro. Vrla.

District Three Youth Director, Sister Emma Ceska spoke: "I am happy again to be here today. It certainly is a pleas-

Wednesday, October 5, 1960 ure. Of course, this past year, as you know, has been quite successful in our Youth Movement work and today in looking over the crowd I see a few of our Teen-Agers and youth here; it is a pleasure to see you here; so thank you for coming out. I am especially proud of our Youth Leaders in District Three: Sister Bessie Petr, of Lodge 84, Sister Pavelka, Assistant Youth Leader from Lodge 35, Elk; and Sister Rose Mary Spence from Lodge Waco, 66, assistant Youth Leader, they were asked to take a bow.

It is certainly with pride that we have supported the work of our Princess Contest in the District. We had our local, District and our Miss SPJST Contest going and since in our District III we have established the annual event in the Youth Activity Day; it should not be overlooked. We have had our best year!

Perhaps sometimes some of us get our feelings a little bit hurt; maybe because, of misunderstanding of rules; getting the various rules mixed up; so it is perhaps a good thing to get a copy of the rules before we say something. I am happy to know the 1964 Convention will be in Waco. We will be the Host Lodge and we hope that all will go as well as they did in San. Antonio.

As you know, the District Three Youth Day has been established, an annual affair and it is to be held on the last Sunday in June, each year. We are proud of all of the work you brothers and sisters are doing between the Youth Leaders; especially our assistant youth leader, sister Bessie Petr, she has been marvelous to work with," concluded sister Ceska in her comprehensive and interestingly presented report.

District Three Assistant Youth Leader, sister Bessie Petr spoke next: "Sister Ceska covered the Youth work adequately. I don't think I could add to it. The Only thing; as much as we have done in the past months we do want to thank you brothers and sisters for your help and I think that anyone who has given time in any way should be thanked. No two people could do it alone.

Sister Petr brings regrets that the newly elected queen, Sister Kathy Adamcik could not be present; she had been in a car accident and luckily was not hurt badly; while the; new king, brother Richard Sykora is now a student in a Seminary and could not be here.

• Sister Jerry An Urban speaking, said: "Thank you very much, for the ovation I received. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate all of the members of Lodge 92 on their 50th, Anniversary, I know how they must feel celebrating the 50th Anniversary. Also,

IT E. T N I K WEST, TEXAS

congratulate to theE members of Lodge Jar° 130 on their new home, this beautiful building here.

"Thanks to the organizers for their working in trying to make district Three the first in the state.

"Thank you very much."

Past President of District Three, Bro. Sia Pokladnik spoke next: "Through the Districts, we have formed a chain that would have never come of life. In the last few years there have beLoi a low heartaches, headaches, but !here is certainly a stronger feeling among the SPJST Supreme Lodge officers and the membership for our Districts as have been before.

Since being the past president of District Three, being the first Vice-President when things were certainly tough; the going was just like "going to Ennis years ago" when you had little highway between Dallas and Ennis, when you may have gotten there but wondered how you were going to get back. We had to do a lot of talking; lot of understanding what the SPJST really was. Is it just a fraternal order? I have been in every corner of the SPJST Lodges in our state of Texas to take the pat on the back for District Three for being good backers, for standing up and offering to help them; when the time came to help when they needed it; District Three became the "eye" in the state of Texas; we. were either criticized or complimented; we tried to do as well or better; but where you have a starting point, someone has got to do the things to prove the fact that they can be fruitful.

"Some years ago, the Youth Movement was said that it could not be successful. Even letters were nailed out regarding it. In all of these times; in several years; who was the benefactor?

— Was it the president, secretary, officers, local officers who got the benefit out of it? Everybody worked for the whole Order; and the only way success today is achieved is by harmony; common ordinary horse sense.

"Today I have the opportunity to explain myself. We should at no time be individuals and we should at no time take some of this individual criticism against a group. If there is individual criticism it should be between individuals. We all make mistakes but at no time is the whole group to blame, it is very important when you belong to an organization like the SPJST which consists of seven Districts; who are trying to formulate a brotherly and sisterly understanding amongst all.

We run into little misunderstandings and we should go along hand in hand as members we should forgive; as we travel from one end of the state to the other, the idea is that we are a Fraternal Order

ana 13 that we should act as one and when there are functions, programs in other Districts visit them; everybody should try to work to the one point of a clearer understanding. So let's work at these plans; work together; let's bat the one who are making a good job.

Speaking on our fraternal orders and our American Heritage, Bro. Pakladnik said, "Let's back the ones who were asked to do the work; let's be part of the organization, its officers; let's be part of any group to do these things.

Regarding "criticism" Bro. Pokladnik continued: "If you can do it so good, do it!" Come up and do it and do something good for the Order; the best you can do for the order!" Don't make a mountain out of a ant hill. If you can't do anything about it, let those that can do things. Let's keep the harmony; the best that we are supposed to have. If there is anything that is not to your liking, right; go to your officer, dilutor, discuss it there and not condemn publicly, and in that fashion we will grow a s we deserve," concluded Bro. Pokladnik.

Brother Otto lianas, also past president of District Three spoke next: "I don't know what I could add to Wtfut Bro. Pokladnik said. It came close to my heart. When you come home, tell and urge your lodge to attend these meetings; let's have thtm well represented from every lodge of our District.

Brother John Hrabina, also one of District Three's past Presidents, declined to talk.

Brother Frank Olexa, guest member from District Five of Houston, Texas spoke next. It is always a pleasure being here, attending these meetings. You do get lots of good out of them; just like your past president, Bro. Pokladnik said, these people don't have to do it; they do it for a purpose; out of fraternalism; they see that our fraternal Order grows, that is what we are striving for; we will do it; we have some misunderstandings on the way but they are just a different way in trying to attain a goal — we may see it in. a different light but we arc .all working toward one goal — to have better SPJST . I want to thank you for the privilege to say a few words, Before I leave: the last Sunday in October we will have our District Meeting -- come see us in. Houston, it will be in the Stet,. anik Lodge No. 142" concluded Bro* Olexa.

Brother Emil Petr, also a past District Three President spoke. "I would like to say that I too am . interested in this kind of work; I love to come out to the meetings; I don't miss the local meetings of our Lodge and, of District Three and with the advantage that I have, I usually am offered a ride to different Districts; I always take advantage of it. I see there

Strana 14 are ox.ore and more people coming in all the time. (Brother and Sister Edward L. Marek and Brother Raymond Urbanovsky, from the Supreme Lodge had just come in).

"The question of how we could increase our attendance is by going to our District Meetings and if you get an opportunity, go to the different District Meetings and they will really build up interest; because when we s1ee that you come all the way from Houston (for example) Wichita Falls, etc. they are wondering why you are coming up there and they too will come to see what is going on here. If you ever get a chance, go to the other Districts and the other Districts will come to us."

Director from District Five, Bro. Joe Skrabanek, guest from Houston, spoke next. He and his charming wife have made long and lasting friendships among the young as well as the older membership here . "I don't know what I would say for I think everything has been pretty well covered, but I do want to say that tray wife and I are very happy to be here today at this District Meeting as well as other occasions. I want to convey greetings from our District Five; also c.:..press greetings from the Rudy Shefelks. They asked me to deliver this messige to you; that they are sorry that they were unable to come. I want to invite you to visit our District Five Meeting next month."

Sister Skrabanek takes a bow as does Sister Olexa, both are from Houston.

Our Supreme Lodge President, Bro. Pdward L. Marek spoke next. "First before I say we are happy to be here with you as has been stated here; it is by association that we learn to understand one another and the greater part of that is that we learn to love one another and through that we call it fraternity. Before I go into that I bring greetings from other officers not here today; first Brother Hejny — who has had a hard week traveling and is very exhausted; Brother Kacir planned to be here but developed laryngitis; the others send their gretings to you and wishes for a prosperous meeting.

"It is on these occasions that we meet as we today meet and our District Meetings have been the building up of our fraternal spirit of our SPJST. We have come a long way froml the first meeting up to now, We are punctioning now through our organized seven units in our SPJST and I want to compliment every officer in, every district; the way that they are conducting the functions of their office; they merit these compliments and wish them future success.

To extend appreciation to the many other directors, we have learned that by en;rusting our Youth Work to the sisters we have gained more than if we had tried to maintain it in the men's division.

Your ladies have done a great job! You are justified that "thanks" that we extend to you!

To the Youth we may say that we of the adults of the SPJST appreciate your outstanding work. We have among you many whose ability of performing your duty when given a chance and it is the responsibility of the adult to extend to you the hand and fellowship we have seen your work performed in the several districts and we have seen them at our last Convention.

I wish to extend our thanks for that performance To the Youth in general, may I say this: that it is the responsibility of this Order to extend our hand' to the Youth, that we are doing so, we acknowledge your ability; that we will assure you on this occasion that we examine this, point out; that your performance in the future will be more eloquent than it is now. To the adults here now; we will . meet every challenge that is before us, regardless where we live or what lodge we belong to. We look forward to a better lodge meeting, district meetings; that we shall get more out of; these challenges of today and the preparation for tomorrow. I want to thank you for your kind attention and the hospitality extended. us and in behalf of the members of the Supreme Lodge say that whatever is in our power to enhance the progress of the SPJST we will always be glad to do so."

Our Supreme Lodge Financial Secretary, Brother Raymond Urbanovsky, folSpeaking in Czech Brother Marek stat- lowed Brother Marek. ed: "Our officers from the Supreme Lodge are always glad to be at your District It is always a great pleasure for me Meeting.

Wednesday, October 5, 1960 the Organizers in District Three are having an easier time of it because of the Youth directors in the different Lodges; I see that there are a number of delegates from the Last Convention here and we have several lodge officers.

District Three Goes on Record Regarding some literature sent out directly to lodges; the Press Committee and the Vestnik's. Editor were thanked for not publishing same. A motion was made on the floor, seconded;that it should not be discussed any further either in the District Meetings or in our Lodge Meetings, that such literature was "personal hates" and not conclusive to enhancing our fraternal work or inner harmony.

District Three Director, Brother Robert Cervenka followed Brother Urbanovsky.

I want to thank you all for electing me your Director and regardless of how you voted I have no "grudges"; if there is anything I can do for you, I will be glad to cooperate with you in every respect.

"In the last meeting of the Directors, we went over the subject of Youth Clubs. We have twenty Lodges in Texas with Youth Clubs. They are as follows: District One — two lodges have Youth clubs.

District Two — None District Three — 10 lodges have Youth Clubs.

District Four — None District Five — One lodge has a Youth Club District Six — Two lodges have Youth Clubs District Seven — Five lodges have Youth Clubs.

Broke down further, the' following Lodges in our state have Youth Clubs.

Hallettsville, West Lodge 54, Snook, Orinqs Lodge 25, Basil Bernard, Elk, Bryan, West Lodge 6, Corpus Christi, Waco, Dallas Lodge 84, Houston, Fort Worth Lodge 154, Flooresville, Robstown, Dallas Lodge 130, San Antonio, Ennis Lodge 135, Fort Worth Lodge 92 and La Parita.

"District Three has as many Youth Clubs," continued Brother Cervenka, "as all the others put together.

"Regarding the Organizational Work," Brother Cervenka continued, "I want to extend to Brother Arnold Vrla our thanks; he is a hard working District Organizer and our district is gaining in miembership. Going back to 1956 when Brother Vrla. became District III Organizer, during that time District Three has written more insurance than all the Districts put together including District Five," continued Bro. Cervenka, Supreme Lodge President, Brother

VEST DI

— WEST, TEXAS

The Meeting was adjourned until 2:00 in the afternoon so that lunch could be served by the team of sisters of Lodge No. 130, in their modern kitchen with its steam table and individual trays for the hungry gathering. Besides spooning d:2licious Czech: cooking onto the plates, a friendly smile, a word of welcome also helped -rake everyone feel right at home; to feel that this gathering was the "cream" of the crop.

The afternoon session was called to order at 2:00 p.m. by District President Trojacek, with a roll call to recheck representation by late earners.

The introduction of the Youth Club Queen of Lodge 66, Sister LaNell Ceska, by our District Youth Leader, Sister Ceska was next.

Their Royal Highnesses fromLodge 84 Dallas , sister Juanita Janousek and Brother Joe Ondrusek, took a bow next.

The Past Queen of Lodge 84 Dallas, ister Jerry Ann Urban also took a bow.

Sister Donna Rose Steinman, Princess from Lodge 154 in Fort Worth, sent her regrets by her grandmother, Sister Anna Milan for not being able to be present.

Lodge 130, our host Lodge, to date has no Queen, but are in the process of choosing one, at a Coronation very soon.

Youth present and representing Youth Clubs then took a how. Youth Clubs No. 66 Waco, No. 35 Elk, No. 84 Dallas and No. 130 Dallas were present.

District Three Organizer, Brother Arnold Vrla, gave his report to the District.

"I would like to call your attention to one thing, that each of you are looking at, at this time This is the District Trophies the organizers, youth leaders, and youth hav• won for the past year, 1960.

I was carrying them around in a soap box from lodge to lodge and in our last District Meeting, Brother Otto Hanus said he would see if Brother Roman Parma of Lodge 66 in Waco, would make a case for these trophies. Brother Parma made this case for a permanent installation. I asked hitri for a bill, he said "I think we need constructive criti- `there is no bill' that he is part of it.

Marek requested permission to speak.

"I have overlooked the fact that I did not .mention the Organizers: I want to do that because if you stop one minute to think; it is those brothers and sisters who go to the public to sell insurance for our Order; in behalf of the Supreme Lodge we extend to you our appreciation for the great work you have done. I want to assure you that everything that can be done in the Supreme Lodge will be done as you have done a great job running up into the millions in the, last four year period. The next four years will be even greater; I want to say this in respect to age in which you write the greatest amount of insurance; that up to the age of 15 or 75 per cent of all the new members; that was written in the' last three years were 15 years or below.

Brother Pokladnik requested the floor: "I want to have a few words and at the same time make a motion: As we all know this is democratic country and we had a subject come up a ►xvinute ago that in order to keep these subjects from the floor that a motion be made that at no time in our District Meeting parties involved in dispute on some election, can be brought up in our District Meeting and that these (letters) should be thrown away because the delegates at the Convention voted them in; in the power given them. When you elect someone; vote him in; stand behind him!

Motion seconded, passed.

Brother George Kacir, Chairman of the Convention recently held in San Antonio, speaks . "I came to see what I can learn from this Distrrict Meeting. I do like these District Meetings and the work. You'd be surprised how many Youth can run a meeting. In our Lodge 54 in West, our Youth Officers can make better speeches than we officers. It is a good training for their future. I hope you continue sponsoring the Youth Club Work as much as possible.

Strana 15 the Top" and make our quota for the Year. I hope that we do for, as you know, it is quite a honor for the District. The following Organizers have reached over $12,000 this year, but under $25,000 , They are arranged in no special order. Brothers: Joe Holasek, Geo. Trojacek; Anton Pavelka, Joe Krivanek; John Krizan, Rudolph Krizan, Albert Kubala, mond Marek. In the $25,000 class is Brother Ben Jarma, and in the $50,000 class is Sister Anna Milan, Brotner, Stanley Vrla and Brother Emil Petr.

I ask that we continue this good work so that we can get our District to the top; I am sure we will.

Brother Vrla then 'read several inportant announcements.

The Czech Societies here in Dallas composed of the KJT; KJZT; WBA; SUPS; RVOS and SPJST are sponsoring a "Czech Day at the State Foir of Texas."

Anyone in any lodge of Czech origin in the State of Texas may participate.

On October 29, on a Saturday night; the Youth. Club of Lodge 130 will crown their Queen at their Lodge Hall. Every one is cordially invited.

The Entsrtainbent CoMmittee announced that on November 12-13, there will be a Thanksgiving Harvest DanCP, everyone is cordially invited.

In the "unfinished business" the Caw Site Committee made its report. Brother Otto Hanus gave that report. Brothel' Hanus read several letters from different officials and Corps of Engineers in charge of lakesites for the Government.

The essence of which read that if the District wished lakeside property frcifia the Government, it would. have to buflA it up to Government specifications, make and maintain access roads and that said property be opened to the public. CoM mittee requested to keep trying.

Brother Hanus made a I.Dotion to haYre: a "money making project" for the trict, for the "District Campsite" 9. which his committee has been working: for over a year. It was seconded by Bm Arnold Vrla. When brought to a vot4 passed. Brother Hanus made anothq motion that a five member committee appointed to work with the "Campsite-.

Committee, which also passed.

Brothers: Pokladnik, Arnold Vela, Otto, Hanus and John Hrabina and Sister Anna Milan accepted nomination.

In discussing this "money making project" one sister suggested that each lodge conduct a "Box Supper" for tlAs: benefit of this "Campsite" and it was left up to the cco ysmitee to work out.

The next item of business wos the • ak* pointment of a new SPJST Rest Home Director. It was pointed out that any brother who accepted this position, (Continued on page 18)

Wednesday, October 5, MO

District Three Holds Meeting In Dallas (Continued from page 15) which is strictly honorary in regards to remuneration, would work without pay, and footing his own traveling expenses.

Brothers Pokladnik, Hugo Shefcak and George Kacir were placed in nomination.

Brother Kacir declined, stating that one Kacir on the Rest Home Board was enough, Brother Hugo Shcfcak, also declined in favor of Brother Pokladnik, who was then voted in by acclamation.

The retiring Brother Frank Laznovsky — who declined re-nomination due to pressure of other business, will be thanked by letter in behalf of District III for his past services to the Home in the name of District Three.

In accepting the Directorate to the Rest Home, Brother Pokladnik said "I will do my best to make you a good director. The Rest Home is something we all have been striving for, I will ido my best and thanks."

Vestnik's editor, Brother Hosek, spoke next: In summation I see• we are again on the way to being "first" in Achievement, if our Co rimittee works out where our Youth could have a home; we shall set an example again. I want to congratulate you; especially Brother Pokladnik, for the words that he brought out and to Brother Urbanovsky for his remarks; that is something that I really appreciated and feel like it is a sort of reimbursement for my efforts in your Vestnik's behalf.

Since so much has been said in English I shall now speak in Czech, however, I do want to say that there are so many here today with whom I have been working for 40 to 45 years and they have been on the job for our SPJST. In those times we didn't have anything but ordinary life policies, so we older members carry only the Ordinary Life; but I can point out old members and you will find that their whole families belong to our SPJST 100 per cent. Then speaking in Czech, Brother Hosek said: "When you look at our By-Laws, that were set up with the best of intentions, they say that we should try to cultivate our Inother tongue and so I would be a bad editor if I did not remember this. I do not have a habit of writing Li speech, I speak from the heart as conditions in our meetings develope and so I would like to say today; it does not matter how long We are in a lodge, but how well we work and get along together and what our Goal is in our fraternal Order.

This Order you all know was Organized

Wednesday, October 5, 1900 on a fraternal foundation, and regardless of how we do it, we must forgive each other of our shortcomings -for we all make errors. Sharp words among us should be, forgiven as Christ directs; give each other your hand, forgive and work together again. We should never throw our guns away at the first disappointment and leave the ranks, for again someone will pat us on the shoulder recognizing our honest endeavor.

I want to call your attention to the fact that your Vestnik Is not the paper where individuals can attack one another, but remember that I am always ready and willing to help you in your good work, inspire and encourage you.

As long as I am your editor I shall not allow anyone to belittle or abuse you.

Now today I am very happy that so i.r.q a.ny have come to this meeting of ours and wish your work all the success possible. I thank you.

The Next District Meeting was slated at the Elk Lodge No 35, by invitation, which will be in March of next year, and accepted with thanks. Brother Zalman of the Elk Lodge as spokesman for delegation and lodge said: "I hope that the meeting will be a successful one and a pleasant one in our Elk Lodge."

The Nominating Committee for the election of Officers for the March Meeting were: Brother George Kacir, Anton Janousek, Otis Ceska, Stanley Vrla, Anna Milan.

Brother George Trojacek spoke, saying "I want to thank Lodge 130 - Sokol Zizka, for having our District Meeting here today. I want to thank each and everyone of you for attending It has been a pleasure to be here with you and I hope that each and everyone of you have a nice trip home.

Brother Pokladnik compliments this District Meeting for its orderliness and friendship.

Sister Emma Ceska complimented the Kitchen Committee of Jaro 130 and their wonderful Youth Club who helped them.

Their lovely Deanna Vrla moved among the tables serving additional coffee, Kathy Vrla helped the cooks in the kitchen and whereever needed, their oriall fry cleaned trays dishes, and ash trays, etc., from the tables in the Hall, taking pride in doing a goad job. In questioning who they were, the Editor was told that they were: Kenneth Vrla, Theresa Vrla, he lovedy daughter of Brother Charles Blatny and the children of Milton Vrla, who only gave Daddy's name. Nice, work girls and boys!

Brother Anton Janousek thanked president Trojacek for his appointment on the Nominating Committee, stating that he will do his best.

In this section you will find a progress report for the month of September which shows we have issued 115 certificates for the amount of $153,500.00.

For the first nine months of this year we have issued 1,199 certificates for a total of $1,478,000.00 of life insurance which leaves a total of $747,000.00 of life insurance we need to write between now and December 31, in order to reach our quota. This we can easily do if we get busy and start writing some applications.

Those of you who have not written at least $5,000.00 of life, insurance this year (and there are 100 of you) please take notice. Unless you do write $5,000.00 or more by the end of this year, there will be some replacements made, so let's get busy now while you still have plenty of time and prevent being disappointed at the end of the year.

District No. 5 joined us in sponsoring a contest in their District and I would like to urge all Organizers of that district to give full support to your District Youth Director by helping to make this contest a huge success.

During Letter Writing Week, it is suggested that individuals write at least two letters: one to a friend or relative from whom you have not heard in a long time, and the second as a reply to a friend or relative who recetly wrote to you. It is also suggested that correspondence with people in other countries promotes greater understanding among the people of different nations.

The display materials will appear on postoffice bulletin boards and roural carrier vehicles,as well as in various schools and libraries.

Life Insurance Is The Major Backer Of Shopping Centers

Reports From Local Lodges

The assets of life insurance policyholders have been the largest single source of money for building the more than 4,000 shopping centers that new supply goods and services to famillies in residential and suburban areas throughout the United States, according to the InStitute of Life Insurance.

The Institute estimates that the life insurance investment in shopping centers is nearly half of the basic capital invested in chopping center development.

Dear Brothers and Sisters, Our District 7 will hold their Fall District Meeting at. La Parita Hall No. 161, 6 miles Southwest of Jourdanton, Texas, on October 23, 1960.

The stake of life insurance policyholders in shopping centers has sharply increased in the past two years and now totals about $1,900,000,000, including about $400,000,000 in future commitmenli Today's actual investment of $1,500,000,000 compares with $1,000,000,000 at mid-1958.

At the same time, insurance policy assets have also been an important source of capital for downtown merchants in modernizing their facilities to meet the competition from suburban centers.

It is now finished and the association is now conducting its business in its new spacious and beautiful offices.

The building is indeed a tribute to the many of our own odge as well as of other lodges of the SPJST organization who have put faith in the Liberty, and have supported it and watched it grow.

The Association has now grown to where its assets exceed $5,000,000.00, due largely to the fact that the thrifty minded Czech' people of this community supported it with their money and their prayers.

The reason we laid off the meeting for the 16th is that the American Legion of Moulton is having an all day picnic on the second Sunday. Many of our members have to work at the picnic, so we decided to give then: a chance to go to the picnic.

Our last meeting was fairly well attended but our treasurer, brother Adolf Wagner was sick and also confined to the Shiner Hospital. So please, do come to our meeting on October 16th so we can complete the final plans for our Fall Picnic. We are planning to have only Dinner with afternoon entertainment. Thedays are shorter and nights are cold in November so people like to go home.

This is all for today.

Fraternally, Club reporter )• 4 •( REPORT ON THIRD DISTRICT MEETING . HELD IN DALLAS, TEXAS The fall meeting of the Third District was held at Lodge No. 130 in Dallas, Sept. 25, in the very modern and up-todate building. This is one of the nicest lodge halls, in fact it has been just recently completed, and, so the floor plan and construction is the latest as far as looks and convenience. The location is another reason why it is so outstanding. Very rarely do we find tall shade trees surrounding a building, but their's a perfect location, for they not only hace a nice structure, but also good picnic grounds which can be used for so many activities.

The district meeting was called to oriee by the district preseident, George Crojacek. Followed the pledge of allegiance, which was capably given by young enneth Vrla, after which the president _xpressed his appreciation to everyone for their attendance, and that the meeting was open for suggestions and ideas.

There was a representation of only 10 lodges, when the roll was called. This is in unusually stroll number to be r ep -resntd,buoherwistaendc was very good.

When Ben Jarma, the treasurer, gave his report, we found that the district had a nice balance, and as is usually the case, money is a very nice commodity.

Then the different officers and past officers were called on to express them selves. Vice President Ed Mazanec expressed his pleasure at meeting old frinds and making new friendships, and thanked every one for their support at the convention, during which time he was in the race for district director.

Then Bro. Jarma wished the district

17,7:lnesday, October 5, 1960 meeting continued success and growth. district organizer Arnold Vrla gave highlights of the convention. Sister Emilia Ceska, the district Youth Leader, thanked the Supreme Lodge for making it possible for her to attend, the convention. She also commented O how very successful the year had been for the youth not only in the lodges, but also in the districts and at state level. She said that the last Sunday in June has been set aside as an annual affair for the Youth activities.

Then Bessie Petr expressed her a p -preciatonBrheandSistrPkladnik and Vrla, for donating the trophies and ribbons respectively. Miss Jerry Ann Urban also expressed her thanks to the directors for their untiring efforts in stimulating insurance sales.

Through, Brother Arnold Vrla and Robert Cervenka, we heard that our Third District is enjoying a healthy and stimulating growth by constantly gaining new membership. This district is the most active in the state in insurance sales, not only in adult policies but in juvenile policies. So we can rest assured that our SPJST will have :ample and capable leaders in the future. This is being proved by the fact that the Third District has more youth clubs than all of the other districts togetehr. Our youth are learning to take interest in the SPJST its work and functions. Thus our future is assured of capable leaders who will be able to take over so many of the present responsibilities.

"The growth of our order will continue if petty grievances are foregiven and forgotten." These were the words of the past, president of the district, Sid Pokladnik. Further he stated that the districts lave formed a chain that has brought all closer together, and it is up to every member to see that this chain is not broken. It is through harmony and not petty grievances that our growth will be assured. Honoring the work of others and working together will lead to better understanding.

Approval of the above words were expressed by Bro. Otto Harius and Bro. Frank Olexa, the Fifth District Persident. Past Persident Emil Petr also urged everyone to attend the district meetings, and thus our districts will flourish, Our meeting had the pleasure of having the President of the Supreme Lodge Bro. Edward Marek. He gave a short and inspiring talk both in Czech and English. His comments were that through well organized units and districts, the build up of the SPJST will continue. Also through the efforts of the youth leaders and the youth clubs, the program will grow, in fact the program has reached its summit at the Convention. The adult

Wednesday, October 5, 1960 leaders were urged to meet every challenge whenever it comes at any meeting.

Thus by working together and with the youth leaders, our youth will be better equipped to meet the, challenge of responsibilities which will be placed on their shoulders. Further he stated we will have capable leaders by the fact that 75 per cent of the insurance written is juvenile policies, of 15 years or under.

Then followed Bro. Urbanovsky's report on the amount of insurance sold by the Third District, which is $1,300,00 for the year or almost the year's quota.

So we find that the district has some able organizers, eight organizers who have written $12,000; one in the over $25,000 or closer to $50,000 class and three who have written over $50,000.

As the district meeting progressed, we found that the Youth Camp site Committee is actively investigating possible camp locations. The financial status was discussed and. Bro. Otto Harms made a motion which was seconded that the district raise funds with a Fall Festival.

A proposal was made that each lodge have a fund raising activity, finances from which could be donated entirely to the Youth camp site fund , A five man committee was appointed and each lodge in the district will be contacted, that they can plan their activity either with a box supper, dance, bazaar, or any other function, which has been proven to help raise the necessary money. The respective leaders and youth leaders are asked to think and plan along these lines, so that they can come up with a good tnoney raising plan so that the youth camp site can become a reality and not just a dream.

Our Editor of the Vestnik, Bro. L. 0.

Hosek, spoke briefly in Czech on reasons why our lodges were organized and that was to hold the Czech people socially to gether, so that they could work and plan as one unit. He further stated that the Vestnik is for the reading and enjoyment of members and non-members, and as long as he is editor of our Vestnik, the reading matter will continue to be only in a constructive vein, for the good of our Order.

The next district meeting will be held as voted in Elk, Texas. This lodge has become very active again, and deserves all of the help and support possible. We wish them, continued growth and success.

In behalf of the Third District, thanks and appreciation was extended to Brother Roman Parma for building the trophy cabinet and donating it to the district, so that we would have a place to keep the trophies that were won in recent insurance competitions.

Pres ident George Trojacek notifies us

VEST

—WEST, TEXAS

that the term of the district director for the Rest Home is expiring, so it will be necessary for the men-43ers to elect another member to replace Bro. Frank Laznovsky, who has performed his duty so well. Bro. Hugo Sefcak and Bro . Pokladnik were then nominated, and since Bro. Sefcak declined nomination, Bro Pokladnik was named the new director from our district to the SPJST Rest Home.

To Brother Frank Laznovsky, the District Director for the Rest Home, whose term of office expires the first of January, go our sincere thanks for a job well done. For all of the time that he had to spend away from home, for the effort which he p ut into helping make the Rest Home for the Aged a reality.

The meeting ended with, a very satisfied feeling on the part of everyone presnt. For truly it was one of the best and unmet harmonious meetings that our district has had.

Last but not least, to the members of Lodge No. 130 go our sincere thanks for inviting the Third District to have its meeting at their lodge. Many thanks to those Who helped in preparing the delicious food, and to the youth who so ably assisted in the serving and to all of those who helped make this day such a success.

And many thanks to those who visited with us from other districts, Brother and Sister George Kacir, Joe Skral3anek, Frank Olexa, Edward Marek, and Robert Cervenka, R. A. TJrbanovsky and Jos. Ifolasek. Pavelkas, Zalmans, R. Parma, L. Harms, 0. Hanus, Ed Mazanec and others.

Note:— Many thanks for this fine report. * 4* ATTENTION MEMBERS OF DIST. 7 Iourclauton, Texas The officers and youth leaders of District 7 held a meeting at Corpus Christi Sunday, Sept. 18 concerning the coming District meeting to be held Oct. 23, at La Parita Lodge No. 161.

There were several changes made concerning the Youth Activity Contest.

First of all, it was mutually agreed upon by those present to transfer $100 from the District General Fund to the District Youth Fund. The reason being, the rnalonce in the Youth Fund was insufficient to cover the expenses of Youth Activit )7 Day_ The) question was asked, "can the craft items be sold?" The answer was "yes," but the proceeds must go either to the child's local Youth Club or to the District Youth Fund. It is up to each in-

Strana 23 „ dividual Youth Club to decide. Also, they can divide the money if they so choose.

As we had no idea, as to how many entries we will have in the contest; no definite prizes could be determined. It was decided to announce that the the first prize will not be less than $6.00, but it may be more, if we have lessentries.

It will be announced definitely on Youth Activity Day. • It will help tremendously if the •chil&en are encouraged to declare • ahead of time, what categories they wish to enter.

This can be done either to their local Youth Director or if they haveho Youth Club, then send your name, age,elodge number and categories you wish.to,eriter to — Mrs. Marcella Kleprlik, 1206 Lamar, San Antonio, Texas. Please do this as soon as possible.

The prizes for the youth securing the most new members, will be deterthined by the Supreme Lodge and will be announced soon.

Please read the Youth Activity Day contest corrections in this issue. You will also find the progratD for the day, of Oct. 23rd.

Judges for the contest will be kselected

by Mr. Jim Kucera, Corpus Christi, Mrs. Marcella Kleprlik, San Antonio, and Mrs. Betty Novosad, Jourdanton, Texas.

We wish to thank Lodge 56 of Corpus Christi for allowing us to have this im i -portanmeigduhoclt-A. tion. We also wish to thank them for a good time, good food and good' friends.

We hope to see you all at La Parita•on Oct. 23rd.

And remember, a personal word of en. couragement to a youngster will 'do more good. than a dozen letters, so letiall 'get our young people interested in thIS test.

perform their best and not come on the stage and sing half of a song and expect to get a prize. After all, if one enters a contest of any kind he must prepare himself prior to the contest. It is not fair to those who spend a lot of time preparing for a contest and then a little cute child comes on the stage and tries to do sar.ething and is not able. I know that they are cute but we must think of those who have tried and spent much of their time preparing for this event and then lose just because they are not as cute and pretty as some of the others. Let's prepare our children to perform their best before entering the talent contest.

In the achievement division, there will be two divisions again the junior and senior divisions. Again let me remind you that the exhibits must be made by the one who exhibits them. They must be new ones or ones that have never been exhibited in any of our contests.

Only pictures drawn free hand will be considered as art, Prizes will be $2 first; $1.50 second; $1 third and a ribbon for fourth place.

NEEDLEWORK — (1) Best scarf, (2) best pillowcases (3) vanity set, or others.

In each categories first prize will be $2, second $1.50, and third $1 and fourth will be a ribbon.

The same rules will for the talent contest, be as followed last year. Entrants in List register by 2:00 p.m. Contest will tai L at 2 There will be three divisions of the talent contest: (1) sub-junior; (2)Junior; and (3) senior. Ages will be: (1) 4-8 (2) 9-13 and (3) 14-18.

• WEST, TEXAS Dear Girls: Now that Asia, China and now Africa have roused themselves from their doldrums to a frenzy of activities to catch ;up with the rest of civilization in education of the masses, public health, better housing, and the accompaning lux items such as electricity, running water, miracle drugs, hospitals, transportation such as automobiles and planes. They have finally realized now far behind their countries have become in this lethargy.

Educational scholarships and other aids to the education and training of leaders, artisans are eagerly sought to fit their people into the picture of a 20th century country.

The backward countries in an enthusiastic rush are eagerly learning self government, and benefits of an education are up-grading the masses in intellect; to better health, child care, with better housing which brings in electricity and such luxury itettss as refrigerators, running water in the kitchens, bathrooms in places, and modern cooking facilities and techniques replacing the open fire with its hanging black kettle; and the more progressive nations are helping these backward brothers in the catching up. They are showing them how to run their own governing body, develop their natural resources, trade with one another, and how to live liarmonionsly with one's neighbor. The borderlines and the color lines are slowly but surely diminishing; and man recognizes man for what lies hidden in his soul, not on his back.

This working and living side by side is showing tangible results which delight these newly established nations, as well as the old nations dragged along in the push. All over the world dams, and reservoirs are . being built, hydroelectric power is opening up countless fertile waste lands to irrigation, electric equipment, lighting the homes etc. The oxen are replaced with tractors, t coolie by trucks, the bicycles by cars.

This new way of life with its luxuries are giving the everyday man a spiritual shot in the arm with hopes for a brighter future. All of this spells working together, as nations, as states, governments, as men, togetherness. It is a

VtSTNIK WEST, TEXAS momentous era in our time!

Even the rapid birth rate' is not being forgotten, for every second five thousand babies are being born . into this world for which food, clothing, housing and education must be provided. With new medical techniques, less and less people are dying each year.

So, as we view this panorama of humanity all over the world and their doings, one can't help but wonder where it will all lead.

One thing is clear, however, that only with patient understanding, until better communications are established whereby one nation can convey to another nation their underlying thoughts; only by working togother will they achieve a balance or standard of living equal to that of each other nation_ In our brotherhood this togetherness, too, has brought some outstanding successes in the past three years. It has been shown us that for our own particular purposes, this togetherness has not only brought us into personal contact with each other, but more than doubled our set goals set tip in our selling of insurance. We are no longer strangers to each other. Through this personal acquaintances, we live with each other through our achievements! The stronger are helping the weaker, thus bringing modern ideas to the • whole brotherhood, while still preserving our traditions and cultures; we honor our aged; delight in our Youth; and enjoy those in between.

This is God's plan for our true Christian living. May the years ahead', as we

Strana progress in our upward path, where` we discard old ways to adopt new and better ways, continue to love each other, 'remain staunch friends, and enjoy the abundance that love and friendship brings.

To you dear sisters, goes the responsibility to demand better opportunities for the Youth of our Lodge, to enhance your Lodge Halls, the Social hourS :after meetings, more and better lodge : activities, more interesting meetings. TOgetherness with each other, you cart. 'prod those husbands, brothers, fathers and lodge brothers to listen, to try anet'O'do.

Of course, you will have to help,, maybe show them how — but it is up to the sisterhood, just like it is up to the mother, to make the home and keep the "fain ily together and happy.

We've had a wonderful year in. 1960 so far. We did so much to awaken the world' to the realization that here is a fraternal order who has begun to ,push the horizons back for more expansion room to grow and prosper. In the. year 1961, which is steadily approaching and prognasticators say will be even , better than this last year, let's really get into the swing! Let's organize Women's _clubs, Youth Clubs, Social Clubs, tiithday Clubs, Songfests and Square 171aueing Clubs! Let's make our Halls ring ,with happiness and success. Let's make our Lodge a place where the whole family can enjoy fraternal fellowship, where cultural projects are instilled in our Youth in all ages, where all are -welcomed the young as well as the qid, and

Strana 26 where in happiness and in sorrow we find companionship and understanding.

So, dear girls, let's put our shoulders to the fraternal work and watch the work fly! You can do it, for you know how; for from infancy God has given you all the inherent talent of setting things to right and getting things done.

Let's keep each other informed in the year, what you are doing, how things thin out for you, so that others may pick up some ideas from you in exchange for theirs.

In togetherness, with love, we shall all prosper.
