Ale ta, negt'astna, Zizeri jej trapila. Jenik i Klieka jej pozorovali, jak easem se ohledl, jakoby hledal, kde by mohi dostati nejake pitivo. Ptispechali mu pro to na pomoc a Klielca, zavolav jej, dal mu napiti dobre vody. — Ostrymu voda, nejak nechtela do hrdla. Ptece vgak se ptemohl a napil se, odeSel ku sve prate Ne gla mu tak od ruky — nejak mu nee° schazelo. Oasteji se zastavoval a narovnaval se, ac prate nebyla taka.

Klleka ptistoupil k Jenikovi. &a: "Mire se zda, Ze pkildeme o OstrYho znova. jak se potade ohliZi po pivu. No zicusime jej a jestli pak piljde zas."

Ptilaitost se jim naskytla dosti brzo.

OstrY se zastavil, jakoby byl nesmirne uneven a odkaglal.

Klielca piistoupiv k nemu ptal se jej, co mu schazi.

"Nic, nic," odpovedel OstrY nakeZ dodal: "Potteboval bych si koupiti trochu tabaku — ale to aZ v poledne —" "Oh, nikoli," tekl Klieka s fismevem, "necham vas dojiti si pro nej — ale" do dal prstem vYhreZne: "Zadne pitivo, ne bo bude po na gl smlouve. Chci dries pa praci udelat s vami kontrakt na ten do mek, ale, jak byste pil, nech'arne v geho."

A ku podivu.

OstrY hned zaeal pro hliZeti kapsy a tabak ke kousani nagel.

"No vidite, Ze tabak mate," tekl Klidka s fismevem. "Podruhe pane Ostry nesmi to tale mluviti."

OstrY se zastyclel, nebot' videl, Ze ostatni clelnici pozorovali celY vYstup.

Usadili se, pojedli a Klieka pak nalil kaZdemu pivo — "Tak na zdravi a na va gi lepgi budoucnost," tell Klieka.

"At' slou.21", dodal Jenik si s OstrYm. Tento si liznul nejprve znaleeky, jazy kern olizl pysky a tell: "VYborne pivko, vYborne. Jakie kten."

Jestli ano, pak pa praci zajdeme udelati kontrakt a zitra byste se nastehovali do sveho domku.

"No jak chcete," s ilsmevem tell Ia. "Jestli to tak chcete a nechcete, abychom vam pomohli, pal take dobte. Tady budete pracovati, dokud bade vge v potadku. Kdyi byste se pozapomnel musil byste si najiti neeo jineho. Snad by vain pornohli bratti."

"No ja bych se nezapomnel," zatikal se OstrY. "Ale, vite, pane Klieko, mom strach z dluhu."

"Nebo z potadku," jar netrpelive tekl "Rozmyslete si to, nei bade po praci — dam vam do zittka. Porad'te se s manZelkou a pal byste lam prisli oba.

Odell po praci, ale OstrYmu to nejak neglo od ruky. Rano tak mu vge pekne glo, nyni najednou mu vse padalo z ru kou. Byl cely nesvfij. Rano byl veselY, nyni celY zamlklY. Jak Jenik, talc Klieka jej pozorovali. Videli, ze bojuje sam se sebou. Nechali jej.

"Pohodil si vzdorovite hlavou a to zna mend u takoveho eloveka, te jest odhodlan vzdorovati. Nechce se podrobiti a proto asi jej necharne."

Kdyt bylo po praci, Klieka oslovil odchazejiciho OstrYho: "Rozumel jste mi dobte pane OstrY? — Ptemfalejte o tom, porad'te se se tenou zitra bud' pkijdete oba, nebo jeden.

"Muslin zase domd," tekl, "a proto prij deme nejprve vykiditi vaSi zaletitost a ja pak pojedu domu. Vy take a rano budete rozhodnut."

"To budu", tekl OstrY a jit chtel dodati: "rozhodne chef ztistati santostatnY", ale neudohl se k tomu odhociffati. "Paradim se s mangelkou," dodal. "a budu yedet co ona tomu tekne."

Zatim jit byl rozhodnut, jestli dopadne ptiznive otazka bytova a domael 130eka.

Reports from our Lodges, or any other Reading Material to be pub-

lished should reach the Editor, Saturday before the date of issue.

Address all matters to the Editor: R. O. Box 89, West, Texas.

FROM THE EDITOR'S D The Life You Save Tuberculosis is everybody's enemy.

One unfortunate who has it, perhaps unknown to himself, can pass it on to just about anyone with whokv he comes in ,contact. So anything we can do to help , v„fight this dreaded killer, we do 'for ourselves and our families.

As we go, about our daily routine — working, meeting friends, spending time with our families — it is unthinkable that anything could completely disrupt this pleasant, familiar way of life. Yet this is exactly what happened to thousands of Americans last year, when tuberculosis took them away from their homes and their jobs and put them in the hospital for a lengthy stay. Unfor.stunately, 'despite dramatic advances in treatment, TB is still very much with us, .,„and can strike anybody, anywhere, any- time.

We all need security. But have you n. seen the heartbreak on a mother's face ,,when told the only way to protect her ..,children is to leave them? The fear and ; ;worry of a young father who must leave his job and family to spend months in a hospital? The despair on a child's. fact when told he will be away from his parents and friends to lie in a hospital bed?

Such. TB tragedies can wreck your 'family's security. The Christmas Seal 'appeal is for teamwork support to give give you more security — to .find and prevent TB — and to push research against respiratory diseases — from the 'common cold up — that bother nearly all of us, cause one death out of 10, and are chief causes of loss of tithe from work and school.

The money you contribute for Christmas Seals supports your TB Association's efforts to combat this dangerous disease. Christmas Seal dollars pay for 'ffiedical research against TB and other respiratory diseases; for education; for 'help to TB patients in getting back to normal life; and efforts to find all un known cases of TB early.

For our own benefit as well as others, let's give generously for Christmas Seals

IT'S TRICK OR TREAT TIME AGAIN October 31, Halloween is almost here again! It is the Trick or Treat time for our small fry; it's party time in company of ghosts, witches and goblins for the adolescent, a time for a bit of fun and frolic for the adults.

Let's have a Halloween Party for our membership in our Lodge! You have two full weeks toy prepare for it.

Halloween opens the fall festivities for our Lodges, Youth Clubs, Women's Circles, Birthday Clubs, for shortly there after comes Thanksgiving and quickly, much too quickly, comes Christmas.

For most of our rural membership, Halloween marks the finale of late summer and early fall harvest; with the barns and bins full, the fields fallowed the cattle fat and slick and a feeling of well-being and thanksgiving for the year's abundance and favorable harvesting conditions.

For the, rnetropolitan membership Halloween perhaps means a last fling before winter grips the land, it means good food in wonderful company with plenty of good cheer, a feeling of thankfulness for the end of insufferable heat, dust, exhausting vacations and an end of waiting summer out.

To the homemaker it means family happiness, full of bounce and energy of children, restful nights, whetted appetites and the last act in nature's four act play. when trees in their resplendent colors bow out until next spring; when plants in one's garden too, regain some of their vigor after the onslaught of summer drought, and heat, to give their last act a brilliant performance before their curtain goes down. It means preparation for dreary days, blustery winds and cold rains when one becomes confined in the home.

So. let's have that Halloween party,

Sokol-Lodge 154 Fort Worth Has Open House

Strana 13 and for a time threatening sky, a huge crowd assembled frern, all parts of our state to partake of the delicious Czech cooking and help celebrate the occasion, a long cherished dream of the membership in this lodge.

Everyone expressed happiness at the reality of the remodeled and: enlarged kitchen and refreshment bar in the new rear addition, with comfortable tables and chairs.

The Shriner Band of which bro. Joe Milan is a member, gave the appreciative gathering a concert.

At three o'clock all the tables were 'folded and stacked and after everyone had eaten, the program of the Sokol Units from Ennis, Dallas, and Fort Worth got underway.

The next two hours were full of activity in exhibition. Some daring feats of callisthenics on the apparatus were performed and following the applause of the old Sokols,now retired, who understood the difficult performances, the audience cheered the individual dances on.

The small fry, Sokol's fledglings, always win an appreciative hand for their efforts. They too, performed wonderfully.

The closing number by the young women of the Fort Worth Sokol Unit, the Grecian Lance Number, dressed in appropriate white tunics tritr,med in gold and golden lances, was everything one could desire in rhythmic, Classical beauty. The number snycronized to its recorded beautiful classical music was movement of grace, beauty, poise and poem and was one of the best numbers on the program. A free dance was held that night to culminate the celebration.

Parts from all of the differe et 1 catured numbers were filmed for TV and will be shown on Ft. Worth's Channel Five, either next Wednesday, October 19, or Thursday, October 20 at 12.30 p.m.

As your Editor stated in complimenting this Unit Of the Sokol-SPJST Lodge 154, on getting along so beautifully in the same home, "You have. now a big place, but today it's still small, we congratulate you! Let us all work together in harmony."

How You Vote On Election Day When Slection Day — Thursday, November 8 — arrives ,you go to the place officially designated as a voting box and you will find the election judges and recford books ready to accomodate you.

This time you will also find several other people standing about watching the voters as they line up at the tables.

These are political party workers who are permitted by law to watch the voting. Usually each party is allowed to have two such workers at each polling place.

When you are ready to vote, if you are using a voting machine, be absolutely certain that you know how to use it before you go inside the voting booth. If you are doubtful, ask an election official to show you how to use it. If you don't use the machine properly, your vote may be lost. Likewise, if you are using a paper ballot, be sure to mark an "X" inside the circle or square of the candidates of your choice.

When you are inside the voting booth, whether you are using a machine or a paper ballot, vote exactly as you please.

No one will know how you vote. The paper ballot does not have your name on it. Neither on the paper ballot nor on the machine is there any way of checking how you have voted. No matter what party you enrolled in when you registered, you can vote for whatever candidate you choose, regardless of their party.

Decide for whom you are going to vote. before you go into• the voting booth. You can take a list of the candidates you prefer with you. But don't wait until you are in the booth to make pour decisions about candidates. Such spur-of-the-moment decisions are not fair to the candidates or to the nation and indicate that you are not using your vote thoughtfully. Furthermore, if you have to spend a lot of time trying to decide how to vote after you are in the booth, you may not be able to finish voting since there is usually a time limit of tame to five minutes for each person in the booth.

VESTNtK— WEST, TEXAS tain, pushing the handle, all the way back. After voting by ballot, fold the the ballot, bring it with you from the booth and drop it into the ballot box.

Now you, as a citizen, have exercised one of the privileges df democratic selfgovernment. You have registered your personal opinion where it will count.

Voting is a simple but an important act. It is a right on which our freedom depend& Men have fought and died for this right. It costs you only the tire and effort — and some careful thought.

For weeks the election campaign has been carried into every corner of the land The candidates have expounded their views. We have read and watched and listened. We have talked with our friends and neighbors. By now almost all of us have made up our minds.

The time for argument and discussion is over. The day of decision is at hand.

And unless we perform one vital, prsonal function, the weeks and months of examining issues and candidates will have gone for nought.

On Tuesday, November 8th, we must cast our vote. This is the root of democratic government. This is our great privilege and our great duty as American citizens.

No one can tell us how to vote, nor can anyone except ourselves know how our secret ballot is cast. Though we may vote in varying ways for varying reasons all of us vote as we please. To many of us this seems sitpple and natural. Yet there are millions of men and women living under dictatorship who can never vote as they choose.

A free, unhindered vote is truly a right to be cherished . And, as we cherish that right, we, should use it on Election Day. For as surely as we fail to use that right we are bound to lose it. ) • 4 • (

Women's Circle of Lodge 92 Ft. Worth In the last Meeting of Lodge 92 in Fort Worth, the Women's Circle gave their report on the culmination of their project, namely: a new velvet curtain for the Lodge Hall stage.

Sister Mary Paprskar, President of the Women's Circle, gave a detailed report on their project, stating that they have been planning for a long time to replace the old 22 year mild curtain in the Hall, that with the help of one of the Lodge's brothers, Brother Joe Juran, they were able to purchase the material at cost; that this good brother even helped them finish the surtain since that was his profession; that with the help of the other members of the Circle the Curtain was made, and hung at a tremendous saving to the lodke. The maroon curtain truly is a thing of beauty and will be a lasting memorial to this busy but happy group of sisters in the Lodge 92 Circle.

Therefore, we must see to it that the individual members are fully acquainted with the fine protection that is available to them at minimum cost. In carrying on our organizational work local organizers have been assigned in seven districts in the whole state of Texas. To be successful, it is the primary :duty of these organizers to strive to have the proper knowledge of everything concerning our policies, and •to effect close cooperation with district organizers and on the part of all concerned. Our success throughout the future will necessarily be measured by the degree of cooperation that is manifested in our local lodges. Vast strides in our organizational work can and will be made if we all do our part.

Last month we had an organizers' meeting in La Parita. Brother Joe B. FIejny, our Vice-President, in a splendid way explained to us everything, all new regulations and changes being now in force and answering all questions asked.

The best proof that such a meeting means very much for our organizers, is their progress in selling insurance. Here it is: Sister Arnold Franck $16,000.00 Brother Frank C. Sacky 17,000.00

The happy confusion of country people. city people, mingling through the various exhibits from brand spanking new automobiles, to slick and fat cattle, sheep, chickens. From the latest in farm machinery to the latest in homemaking arts. fashions and the happy Midway with its rides and concessions.

Well, I couldn't get a budge from your Editor, so he attended the Meeting at the Supreme Lodge, and I sneaked off to the State Fair. What a happy time I had.

I made a dash through the Automobile Building, with its many new cars. The first thing that hit Ely eye was the glitter cif so vutich chromium plating on the cars and shining clean headlights with the spotlights playing upon all of this.

Beautiful models dressed in formals were seated in these beautiful specimen cars, riding 'round and round' on the dial and and smiling prettily. What a horrible way to earn a living, 'I thought . Riding that mery-go-round for eight hours a day and smiling all the time. The muscles of their faces must hurt from so much smiling.

I also ran through the Gas House, to see the new Gas kitchens, but my love was the Women's Building, and I spent the whole day there, just aldiniring the handicraft of Women, the hours of love and toil that went into the exquisite things on display. One new art that struck my eye was this "Seed Painting."

I suppose it's painting, for it's the art of arranging different shapes and colors of seed into a picture. It takes lots of patience to arrange seeds in rows and glue thou in place. Another very interesting hobby shown by an Art Guild was the lapidary art, the polishing of semi-precious stones for costume jewelry, for inlay of gift items such as letter openers scissors, Jewelry boxes, cigarette cases cuff links and many other items.

The art of painting on porcelain held the interest of some 50 women who sat through an exhibition on how to go about painting rose's and scenes on china by another Art Guild.

Like the idea of making table cloths for Christmas of net with appliques of sequin covered bells, flowers, and other. Christmas motifs for it.

It was disheartening to look at the ruined interior of the Hall.—I only hope that sufficient insurance was carried on the Hall. ) All our Lodges should make early preparations for their coming election Meetings and the officers of each Lodge, should urge their membership to be sure and consider to vote for good persons of their choice.

ferings which our mother lodge has given us, we, the Teen-Age Club purchased pitchers, pots, scrapers, mixing bowls, cookie sheets and other useful and needed articles for the kitchen.

Many of the sisters of our lodge devoted at least one Saturday to the lodge by helping make kolaches in order to make money for the lodge , Everyone knows how hard it is to make enough kolaches to fill enough orders. In seeing the hard task of mixing and stirring the dough by hand the Teen-Age Club took it upon themselves to donate a huge dough t pixer in order to lighten the burden of the mixing. We know that this useful article will be appreciated by the members of Lodge 88.

So hope everyone will come on Friday nights at Sokol Hall. They start at 8:00 o'clock.

Also, Saturday I went out-of-town to my aunt and uncle's house in Moravia.

I sure did enjoy myself. The most fun was when my cousins. Jerome and Magdalene Kristek and I bitched a wagon onto the tractor and went riding. Then at night we all went to a dance at Wied.

Sunday I had to go home and I hated this because I had such a good time, but school was Monday and I couldn't miss that. So I want to thank the Kristek family for giving me such a nice time.

2. Check your attic, and throw out old clothing, discarded furniture and other combustibles that would provide dangerous tinder if a fire should occur there.

3. Keep your oil mop in a metal container or in a safe, well ventilated place• where it cannot catch fire by spontaneous ignition. Throw away oil-soaked polishing rags or waste after using.

4. If you have paint or varnish in the house, keep it in tightly closed containers. Gasoline, benzene and other flammable fluids should never be used for cleaning. Gasoline for lawnmowers or outboard motors should be kept in approved metal containers in an outbuilding or the garage.

Cooking and Kitchen Hints 5. Keep your broiler in the kitchen range free from grease. Many kitchen fires break out in broilers where grease has been permitted to accumulate.

6 If there is a window near the stove, make sure that the curtains do not blow over the burners.

Wet-ideal Maintenance Hints 7. When you buy electrical equipment, employ a qualified electrician to install it or to extend wiring. Such work should not be done by "do-it-yourself" household handymen.

and by using too large a fuse, or inserting a penny behind a blown-out one, you are inviting trouble.

Oil and Gas Heaters 11. If you use a portable oil or gas heater, always turn it off when you retire at night. Place it so it cannot tip over and curtains or drapes cannot blow against it And keep a window partly open while the heater is in use. Too many deaths occur each year when such heaters are operated in closed rooms where carbon monoxide accumulates and snuffs out lives.

12. Keep matches on high shelves or in places where they are out of reach of small children. Matches and children don't mix.

13. If there are smokers in your home, keep plenty of ash trays in every room.

It's a good thin,g too, to emply ash trays often.

14. Make sure that no member of your family smokes in bed.

In Case of Fire 15. Have the telephone number of the fire department readily available beside the phone, and tell all members of the family where it is. If, in your community, you reach the fire department by calling "operator," make sure everyone, both big and small, is familiar with the procedure.

16. Make sure alt the members of your family know the location of the fire alarm box closest to your home. See to it that they know how to turn in a fire alarm.

17. Finally, draw up a plan. of escape from your home, should it catch fire.

This is extremely important. You should hold fire drills regularly, Gather all the family together and work out two plans of escape, particularly from upstairs bedrooms. If one way of exit is blocked, you have, the alternate to use.

Impress on every member of your family that, in case of fire the first thing to do is get everybody out of the house.

Then — call the fire department.

If you employ a baby sitter or have house guests, make sure that they also know how to get out of the house in case of a fire emergency.

The Social Security Program The social security program. has become increasingly generous as the years have passed. It originally provided pensions only to workers Who retired at the age of 65 Hut in 1938 it was broadened to include payments to the widows and children of workers. And then, in 1956, Congress passed a bill that authorized payments to workers who became disabled, Now a further significant change is being discussed in Congress—the broadening of the social security program to cover payments for the medical expenses of older people -- for their doctors, hospital care, and medicines.

William L. Mitchell, the Commissioner Of Social Security, says that the passage of the Social Security Act of 1935 signalled an important change in the United States. It gave formal recognition to the principle that the Government has a responsibility for the welfare of the people; and, Mr. Mitchell stresses, it marked tbe passage of the United States from a rural country with an open frontier to a predominantly urban and industralized nation.

What was indicated in 1935 is of course an actuality today, for industrialization has continued at a rapid pace while the relative role of agriculture has continued to shrink. There' were 127,500,000 people in the United States when the Social Security Act became law and there are 180,000,000 today. National output has climbed past the $500 billion mark and is almost eight times bigger than it was in 1935. Prices have risen, too, but after allowing for the price increases, there is twice as much, real prdduction for every man, woman and child as there was 25 years ago.

One important consequence of the increases in price and in physical production has been a series of increases in the size of the benefits that are paid to workers and to their widows and children. The average monthly payment to a retired worker and his wife, for example, totaled $36.50 in 1940, It was raised to $71.70 — an increase of almost 100 percent -- in 1950, and by last year it had been advanced to $120.60.

The social Security System is supposed to provide income protection — a minimum income, floor — for those who receive benefits, but it never has been designed to take care of all, the needs of all the baieficiaries. Since the United States lays great store on individual initiative and enterprise, the Social Security System assumes that people will save enough during their working years

VESTN/K— WEST, TEXAS to have some additional income after they retire.

State and local governments do make direct public assistance payments to needy people who require additional funds and many retired persons work part-time to obtain extra income. But, even so, the adequacy of the social security payments is a matter of dispute, and there are many who believe that increases in future years should be appreciably larger than they have been in the past. )

Old People's Homes In Texas there are 623 licensed nursing homes with a combined capacity of 15,943 beds according to the latest quarterly figures.

Charged! with the responsibility of licensing and keeping a health-check on these, homes in the Division of Nursing and Convalescent Homes of the Texas State Department of Health.

To carry out this responsibility the Division has duties that are many and varied in addition to being statewide.

The philosophy guiding the inspection of nursing homes is one of cooperation between home and agency. Seldom is legal action necessary.

For instance during the last quarter — June, July and August — the Division issued 20 original licenses covering new operations; issued four provisional licenses; land renewed 163 licenses.

During the same period 35 licenses were cancelled. Only in two instances was it necessary to file complaints against persons found to be operating in violation of the law.

The primary reason for license cancellation was that buildings currently in use were sub-standard and the licensee voluntarily went out of business.

Some have already re-located in remodeled buildings, !and in two cases new homes have been completed and are now licensed and occupied.

The major work load of inspection is bOrne by local health departments, city and county health officers and fire marshals who render a vital cooperative service in the inspection and licensing program.

However, 170 licensed homes are located in 87 counties without the services of a recognized full-time local health department. This means the Division field staff must assume' primary responsibility for keeping these 170 licensed homes under routine supervision.

In,addition the Division receives daily requests for the inspection of potential facilities and for the investigation of illegally operated homes.

The Division is also responsible for processing and issuing emergency ambulance, permits.

Changes Made in Social Security Law

Causes Of High Blood Pressure

Congress has made changes in the Social Security law with the following results: 1. Persons 65 and older who have retired will be permitted to earn more money, without losing pension payments. age who earned more than $1,200 a year age who earned more then $1,20 a year lost some of their monthly benefit checks, diepending in how much they earned. In the future, no benefits will be lost for earning up to $1,200 a year . One dollar of benefits will be lost for eoch $2 •earned between $1,200 and $1,500; one dollar of benefits will be lost for each dollar earned above $1,500.

2. A worker covered by Social Security Who becomes disabled can start collecting full benefits form himself and dependents regardless of age. In the past, ,disability benefits have been payable only to people 50 or older.

3. In the future, the work period required to qualify for old-age pensions will be reduced, making about 300,000 persons eligible for immediate benefits.

4. About 400,000 children of deceased workers in families with omiore than one child are to get increased benefits, up to a family maximum of $254 a month.

5. Widows of qualified workers who died before 1940 will be able to collect pension benefits for the first time.

Rejected. a proposal to cover physicians under Social Security.

Congress also acted to give medical aid to the aged with the result that the Federal Government will offer medical help to the needy in every state that puts up money of its own to match federal contributions, Estimated first-year cost to taxpayers of this new welfare program is $5 million, with state and local governments responsible for one-third of the cost. ) • 4 • ( The fastest known bird is the peregrine falcon -- it has been known to attain a speed of 200 miles per hour in a vertical dive. ) 4 • ( The total cash cost of all accidents per average year in the United States would build a fleet of 200 ships, each the size of the Queen Mary. ) 4 • (—

Galveston — Researchers at the University of Texas medical branch revealed recently that one cause of high blood pressure is an inadequate artery network serving the kidney.

Dr. John Derrick said a three-year study of 520 hospital patients produced new information on the theory that a blood-starved kidney gets local help When it calls for more blood.

But usually this is at the cost of increasing blood pressure throughout the body, he said in a report to be presented at a Mexico City meeting of the International Congress of Medicine and Surgery.

Dr. Derrick said chances are two-toone that a person will suffer systemic hypertension in his kidney depends upon two or three small arteries, rather than one big artery for its major blood supply.

Only a minority of adults have &tore than the one main artery carrying blood to their kidney. he said. While 69 per cent of these adults with small, dual renal arteries suffer from high blood pressure, the doctor said, only 17.7 per cent of persons with one large artery to their kidney do so.

Dr. Derrick, 38, said corrective surgery at the Texas medical school and elsewhere had been successful in a high percentage of cases by linking the main artery and the kidney with ysnthetie vessels, —) • 4 • (

Election Night In America Election night in the United States is one of intense activity at polling places, at political party headquarters, and for reporters, editors and commentators. The rest of the people wait to learn the results on television, radio and newspaper bulletin boards.

On November 8th this year the American people will choose not only their Presiident and Vice president, but approximately one third of their Senators and all of their Representatives as well.

They will also elect thousands of state and local officials.

On election night the voting returns begin coming in slowly. During the day a few reports come from small communities, where all the votes can be counted quickly. But the results do not came in volume until after the polling places close The flood of election returns starts on the east coast, then sweeps in from the Middle West, the Rocky Mountain States and the far West.

Through the evening hours and into the night — until the results are virtually certain — news reports pour out over the air and in extra editions of newspapers. News experts plan their coverage of the complex and momentous events months in advance. As people listen and watch in small groups in their homes in large crowds at campaign headquarters, and elesewhere across the nation, the reports come out with smooth efficiency, although in an atanosphere of mounting excitement.

Then the concessions of defeat begin coming in. Winning and losing Presidential, state and local candidates appear on television and radio. Both thank their supporters and the winners repeat their pledges to represent their constituents well. Losers vow to continue to work for the issues they believe in.

This sets the tone for what follows among the voters, who traditionally accept the verdict with good sportsmanship.

Across the country, radio and television sets are snapped off; the banners and posters come down from the Walls of campaign. headquarters. In news paper offices, radio and television stations, weary men turn their jobs over to fresh crews who continue to report every phase of the big story.

And the voters — until now divided in their preferences and loyalties, merge again into the vast and united American electorate to support the country's chosen leaders.

V AST NI K ® WEST, TEXAS CAN AN ADOPTED SON COME TO THE U.S. AS NONQUOTA IMMIGRANT? Question: We are American citizens and have recently adopted the son oif distant relatives abroad who are unable to give the child a proper education. We are anxious to bring the boy to the United States, but both the child and his parents come from a country with an oversubscribed quota. Can we bring him over under the nonquota provision of the immigration law, since he is now our child according to the law of his country of birth?

Answer: Unfortunately, the fact that he is an adopted child under the law of his country of birth does not bring him within the definition of an adopted child as used in the Immigration and Nationality Act. Adopted children are not eligible for preferential quota status unless the child has lived with the adopting parents for at least two years and has been in their legal custody for that period. Neither a foreign court nor an American court would be able to waive that requirement. Although the two-year residence requirement is not applicable in the case of adoptions under the socalled) orphan adoption statute, this is not applicable in your case because the child you adopted it not an orphan. Your adopted son will therefore have to wait his turn on the quota list. ) • 4 • ( FARMING IS OUR STATE'S BIGGEST BUSINESS A one-sided picture is presented tthe public by the big city newspapers, magazines, radio and television, and many city dwellers are accusing the farmer of being responsible for all government ills, including the national debt. Actually the farmer has received only $5 out of each $1,000 spent by the government as subsidy in past years.

The net farm income for last year was down 15 per cent from the previous year and it was the lowest since 1943.

The American people have never been fed so good for so little labor. They now can buy twice as much food for an hour of labor as they could in 1929.

The many industries now processing agricultural products and asserted that there are 22.5 million people engaged in some fortri of agri-business. In Texas 40 per cent of all employed people are engaged in agri-business.

In conclusion we call your attention to the fact that city people who complain about the high cost of food and blame the farmer for it usually leave a tip that amounts to more than what the farmer received for the food served, and that they pay more for laundering a shirt than the former received for the cotton that made the shirt.

"No neplae, Anieko," tegil ji Jenik. "Ty za to nemaZe g, ani maminka. Vgak Pan Bah da, se bude zase dobie. Zatim tady se najezte vg ichni a ja pojedu s Vaclavem, abych jej dostal ven."

A odejel s Vaclavem a stratnikem.

OstrY si usedl k posteli sve manZelky.

"Ma2eg mi odpustiti?" iekl plaetive. — "Kam jsem to dotahl. Ale nebudu vas diouho trapiti, udelam tomu konee a ty dostaneg moje pojigteni."

"Mai," zhrozila se Ostra a povstala.

"Nebojig se Boha? Snad bys si nechtel vziti aivot a udelati nam, je gte hat. Co jen ti to napadlo. Misto, abys litoval sve ho poblouzeni, ty se chce g zahubiti. Vidig kam to zavedla tvoje pokrokovost? ani divot by ti nebyl svatY. Neopovat se mi takto mluviti. Nic se neboj. Mit nas neopusti. Tuhle si sedni a najez se„ Do kud Jenik se nas dr2i, nebude Wan zle, uvid "I bude, bude," 2alostno iekl OstrSr a zaeal vykladati, co mu bylo Kliekou nabidnuto.

"Opravdu?" zvolala, radostne Anikka.

"A vy jiste jste to pkijal.. B-udeme viichni pracovati, jen abychom si domek "Dobie mad, cite moje," kekla va2ne Ostra. "Budu se Wit, az si ruce do kosti seat', jen kdy2 budeme miti svoje. —" "Ono se to snadno iekne," iekl Ostdr "Ale Klieka chce, abych se zkekl mista hlavy rodiny. Abych nedr2e1 penize ja..

No a to piece nejde a potom, abych se nadobro zteld piva."

Ostra, se dala do smichu.

"A to ti ptipada, teZko? tak ti nee() tatinku poyim. My tady s Aniekou ji2 14 dril nemame nic k jidlu jen eistout kavu nebo eaj — tuhle ptinesla nejake kreker sy — to jest cele nage jidlo. Vy s Vaclavem jste jedli, my se postily —apiece jsme nenatikaly. Vgak se podivej na Anieku, jak, jest to na ni znati. Jest jako vechet".

Strana 28 Teprve ted' si Ostrk pov gimnul blede tvare sve dcery a podival se lepe na svoji mangelku.

AZ se ulekl: Vgdyt' jeji oei byly cele propadle, smutne A deera, bleda, Oink' prtinaledna. A jejich gaty. — Sam se ny ni divil, ge mohl bYti tak nev gimayk. Nei-ekl nic, jen se zamyslil.

"Zitra mam pkinesti rozhodnuti," rekl posleze.

"A co keknete, tatinku?" ptala se dychtive Anieka. "Vicl'te, ge to vezmete. Jd take budu pornahati — a Vaclav jiste to ke. Vgak, kdyg ptijde z tohoto okoli, snad jegte se vzpamatuje." "iVlugi," dolehala jemne Ostra. "Vim, ge se nechce g ztici toho pivka.

Nebudu ti komandovati — budeme v gichni pracovati a bude videti, ge nam bude zase dobte. I ten rent nejak zaplati me a k nabytku si zase porntZeme."

V tom se vratil Jenik s Vaclavem.

Jak ve gli, Vaclav tentokrate celk Jenik povedel celou historii. Kluci zlodeji vnikli do obchodu a tam ukradli nejake veci a mezi jinkrn i kouteni. VAclay, protoge dosed nebyl dosti prohnank, byl nechan venku, aby hlidal. Proto se povedlo Jenikovi, ge byl Vacla y propugten s podminkou, 'g e se Jenik zaii zarueil a doda jej k vkslechu, aby Vaclav sve'deil proti SIIST 1T1 ka,maradfun.

"Ano, ale oni mne zabiji," smutne tekl Vaclay.

"Nic ti neudelaji," tekla ma,tka. "Nebioj se."

"Vy je neznate," rekl Vacla y. "Vy neznate, co doveclou udelati, jestli mezi ni ani tady austanu. Musim prye, aby nine nemeli na, •oeich."

"Viclig tatinku, tak to bude dobre, kdyg budeme prye." kekla, Ostra. vite," rekl Jenik.

"Cog "Ano, tatinek nam v ge povedel," tekla Anieka, "a my obe nalehanle, aby tatinek to koupil. Budeme v gichni pracovati, as si to zaplatime —" "Ca bude tata kupovati?" ptal se Vaclay.

"Tot' se vi, ge budeme a ja take," rekl Vaclav, "jen kdy g budu prye."

Anieka pohledla vdeenkm pohledem na Jenika, nebot' dobte tusila, ge to byl on, jeng jim tak pomohl.

"No", rekl Jenik "Aby vase radost by la oda, tedy vezmete ssebou vas calk na by tek —" V torn zpozoroval, ge Ostrk vytahl hodinky a °brace' je sem tam.

"Co s nimi chcete delati?" ptal se Jenik.

"Na stehovani musime miti nejakk ten groS, musim tedy si opattiti nejake penize."

"To je chcete zastaviti?" ptal se Je"nik.

"Cog jineho?" ekl odhodlane Ostrk.

"Vite co, pane Ostrk?" rekl Jenik. — "Dejte mi svoje hodinky a ja opattim vase ptestehovani. A jestli mate nejake listky zastavni, i ty mi ptepust'te, ja si ty veal vyplatim a ponecham na pamatku — Kdyg je budete pak chtiti vyplatiti, dostanete je.

To bych byl rad, kdybyste vy mel ty veci misto tech gichl."

"Ovgern, jinak bych yam to nenabizel," rekl Jenik. "Budu miti pamatku —" "Dobte tedy," rekl Ostrk. "Tady jsou hodinky a vy zaplatite cele stehovani a maminko, pines listky."

Listky prissy a Jenik si je slo gil se slovy: "Jsou to vgechny?"

"Ano, jsou," tekla Ostra s povzdechem.

Vgdyt' se tolik tesila, ge si ty veci vyplati.

"Jest, jest," kekla Ostra. "Ale jak to bude s nabytkem?"

"Jest vas," kekl Jenik. "Jen nakladejte.

Austin — Two deer bunters in Carnal County last week learned it doesn't pay to headlight deer. They were caught by the game warden with two bucks already skinned out, a headlight and two scope equipped rifles.

They lost the meat, the guns and equipment, and paid fines of $230 each.

A warning was issued this week by J. B. Phillips, assistant director of law enforcement of be Game and Fish Commission, against headlight shooting, hunting from automobiles and roadside shooting.

"Game wardens are working day and night right now watching out for these game violators." Capt. Phillips said.

"Sometimes they are given valuable tips by law-abiding persons. Most of the time however, they happen on these violators while patrolling back roads."

Valuable, assistance also is given to wardens by other peace officers. Very frequently sheriff's deputies, highway patrolmen and even city policemen apprehend violators with game in their cars. They immediately radio the game wardens who tea.ke the case. Fines are then assessed in court. ) • 4, • ( Montezuma and other Astec chieftans had beautiful mirrors long before the white man came along.
