LIFE INSURANCE BENEFITS RUNNING LARGER THIS YEAR Payments to American.families from their life insurance and annuity contracts totaldd i $5,344,700,-000 in the first eight months of this year, up $415,700,000 or about 8 per cent from a year ago, according to the Institute of Life Insurance.

The rise in benefit payrrkmts is largely a reflection of the greater life insurance in force, which is up about 10 percent from a year ago.

Death payments to beneficiaries were $2,248,000,000 in the eight months, an increase of about 9.5 percent from a year ago. "Living" benelfits to policyholders themselves, which account for 58 per cent of the aggregate payments, were $3,096,700,000 in the eight months.

August payments to policyholders were $679,400,000 up $111,600,00 from a year ago, a rise of 20 per cent.

SOKOL SLET SET FOR JUNE 25, 1961 IN CHICAGO Metropolitan Chicago will be the site of the great Sokol Slet 'on Sunday, June 25, 1961. It will be a "Salute to the Sokol's Centennnial" under the auspices of the American Sokol Federation. The American Sokol Organization and the Slovak Gymnastic Union Sokol, with the aid of their thousands of urrd)erstanding (friends will present their answer to the President's call for physical fitness.

The mominoth Stets in Praha, now banned by a dictatorship, place the responsibility of carrying on a great democratic tradition squarely upon our shoulders We have shown in the past that the faith reposed in us was fully justified.

This Slet shall be even greater for there is a greater and more universal appreciation for what we are trying to achieve.

Our voluntary discipline, our faith

Straw 1 our great democracy and our determi-1, nation to assure the future for generations still to come, will act as a bercon to those who need a rallying point for resistance) and counterattack against those forces that understand only migh and force.

This Slet, with your help, guided by Our experienced leaders will prove to our fellow countrymen and the world, tha the ideals implanted in St. Louis on February 14, 1865, were intended to serve as long as mankind regards the sanctity et.' the human individual as the founds lion of every government.

The ASO and SOUS bound in closest ties, serving the same ideal, shall work together, completely together, and on Sunday, June 25th, 1961 present an exhibition of democratic, self disciplined mass demonstrations of physical fitness, that will serve as a gateway into a new and greater century.

Begin your preparations today as individuals, Units and Districts. Increase the active participation of your children, youth and members. Enroll in your ranks all those who know us, appreciate our efforts. All is needed is your sincere invitation to become active participants.

Your efforts, begun now and increasing in tempo every month will insure this success, that we expect with undaunted confidence. This is your Slet, the Slet of the American Sokol Federation. It belongs to each one of us as individuals. Because of this we expect acrid depend on each one of you to do your utmost.

Begin today . Work, think and plan every day. Let your faith, your know= ledge, your enthusiasm carry everything before it, like the high tide that carri wellnigh impossible ships to a sale. anchorage.

To our Slet, too "Salute to the Sokol'.3 Centennnial," to you Sokols everywhere, success.

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK Going to Your Annual, Lodge Meeting?

Every member in our brotherhood is a "builder," a "planner" of the activities of his or her individual lodge.

If a member doesn't care about his lodge, if he doesn't give these activities some thinking and some participation, then his lodge not only suffers but the lack of growth is evident to all.

You then, dear sisters or brothers, needn't expect any growth from your lodge, when you, yourself, separate yourself from your lodge activities, its projects, or when you only sit back and act "critic."

The timel is rapidly approaching when your Lodge will hold that annual Meeting, either in November or in December, when all of our membership should come. together 100 per cent to their Lodge meeting, as is fit for a member of a fraternal Order, and show your faith and your devotion to that Order and work cooperatively with the Lodge officers. indifference and reluctance of the morber to be a part of the activity are the usual cause for a Lodge's retarded ,growth and success of the Lodge activities.

The lack of interest in one's local Ledge is the reason some of our once „ promising Lodges are barely existing today.

Nor can anyone blame theLodge officers for this slackening of its progress, for they alone, without the co-operation of the majority of the membership are unable to perform miracles, regardless of ,how much good-will they hold for their Lodge.

Therefore, whosoever does hold the g,iowth and welfare of his Lodge close to • his heart; whosoever wants his lodge to be an active unit in the Order, to which he or she can point with pride, should arouse himself or herself and as a first step forward to better lodge functions, attend that Annual Meeting of the local Lodge and when there, let the will-

America is entering a new decade. It is significant that for the first time the presidential candidates of both major political parties were born in the Twentieth Century. The course our nation follows will be determined by the voters this fall after they have had an opportunity to witness one of the greatest debates in our long history of freedom.

No. group in our country has a greater stake in the future than you. Those of us who have been active in formulating our national policies know that our opportunities to serve our country diminish with each passing year. An active interest in this campaign, based. on a knowledge of the principle expressed in the platform of each party and the individual statements of the candidates, offers you a unique opportunity for a practical education in civics and a preparation for assuming the responsibilities of intelligent citizenship.

These are, indeed, the responsibilities of all citizens, and not of youth alone.

But, in the nature of things, youth must develop its ability and assume ne,ore and more responsibility; there is grave danger to all of us if the responsibilities of citizenship are not seized, eagerly, by the young people who are coming of age in this eventful and challenging time. I am -glad. to say that I see evidence everywhere that the young people of America• are stimulated, not intimidated, by the dangers we face, and eager to take part in America's drive forward for the establishment of moral strength, equality of opportunity, liberty under the rule of law for all the world, and willingness to make all necessary sacrifices.

The Temple Junior College Board of Regents talked expansion in a Monday night meeting — in the form of a new wing on the present building or a separate building on the TJC grounds.

Enrollment this year, which almost doubled expectations and predictions of increase when it soared to 514, spurred the talk. No decisions were reached, but architects will be asked for preliminary planning at the next regular meeting.

We all worked as much as possible even though we are but a handful." Brother Tirk then describe]. the Spartakiade he witnessed in his travel to Europe this year, where thousands upon thousands of gymnast performed calisthenics in unisun to music.

"Brothers and sisters," continued Bro. Tiik, "let us support the Sokol as much as we can, for when the Sokol ceases to exist, there will be no more Lodges. I am very glad that Dallas, Ennis, Waco, West, and most of our SPJST membership came today. We shall in turn repay your visit whenever we can." Brother Tirk, then introduced Brother Louis 0. Hosek, who was instrumental in establishing the Sokol unit in Ennis and Fort Worth, Inore than 50 years ago," he said.

"All of my friends who are here today, I um sure that you are welcomed.

This dream has been made a reality by the efforts df the men and women of Lodge 154 and Sokol, to enlarge and to modernize their Lodge Hall. For quite some time, this has been their goal and today you can see that it is still not large enough for today's crowd; we are pleased, for you know when we all get together we like to celebrate and this is one day we are celebrating, to see our friends, shake hands with one another and introduce yourselves to all of these friendly faces we see here this afternoon, "These are the happiest moments in one's life when you meet together and meet new friends; for we cannot live by ourselves, we have to have friends, we want to thank all these friends for coming out tdday and we want you to come back again and again to see us in our work. We thank you for your confidence and your help. Brothers and sisters, this Sokol of ours was not organibed lea, t year. It has been here in Texas for sonic 50 years. Fifty years ago, the Fort Worth Sokol was organized and brought into the Sokol Union in America. From that time the .Sokol has grown; it is a long time; I am myself still a Sokol and it,has been beneficial to tare to my health.

We have some old friends of the Sokol on the stage today: brothers Josef Becan, his brother Jdhn Becan, brother Jos. Vytopil, brother Robert Cervenka and some younger brothers who will say a few words to you.

"Now let's talk about our Fraternal Order, I am the Editor of your SPJST Vestnik. We have a good organization, it is a sound organization financially and the only need is for you to inform yourselves and see if We are not worthy of your friendship and confidence. All of our policies are all well covered, backed by cash better than dollar for dollar.

"This Seim' Hall here is also the Home of our Lodge No. 154 and during all of these years they have not had a controversy since their inception. I want to thank our friends from the Waco Lodge Ennis Lodges, Corpus Christi, Dallas Lodges and others and also our sister Lodge No. 92, here in Fart Worth for coming shere today to make this celebration a success. I am glad that you are here and again wish that we all have a good time together today. Thank you." concluded Bro. Hosek.

Brother Anton Tirk, then introduced brother Wesley Laznovsky of the Ennis Sokol and Lodge. "I just want to extend my heartiest congratulations to you on this achievement of yours: I am very proud for you."

Brother Tirk introduced Bro. Ad. Svacek, representing our sister fire insurance company hte SUPS, then Bro. Robert Cervenka, SPJST Director for District Three, also State Secretary of SITS. "I want toâ&#x20AC;˘ comment that your fondest dreams , have come true in this new home. It is one of the largest lodges in our state of Texas in our SPJST." Brother Cervenka then complimented Sister Anna. Milam, top woman organizer in the state in the SPJST Order, and congratulated the Lodge on their new home.

Brother Tirk then introduced Brother Josef Vytopil from Ennis, representing Brother Vytopil stated that he was not prepared to make a speech, but that he brought "greetings" from the Ennis Sokol unit. He also complimented the good sisters who served such a good Brother Hosek then called upon other meal.

Speaking in a low voice, Bro. Prevratil's talk did not register adequately over the loud speaker to be heard by those assembled in other spots, other than directly under the loud speaker.

Both Brother Joseph Becan and Brother John Becan's speeches were lost due to their low modulation of voice which did not register over the "mike."

Brother Carl Zich, President of sister Lodge 92 in Fort Worth, acknowledged introduction of Brother Anton Tirk, and and addressing the members of the Sokol well as the SPJST, he said: "I want to congratulate your lodge and the Sokol for the wonderful place they have here now. It is very beautiful, and very convenient for everyone and I know they want you all to come back again. I am sure that the Milans who worked so hard are proud of what they have here today.

"I want to thank them for the occasion of speaking to you a little, I am happy that everyone came to patronize them and congratulate you for the wonderful remodeling that has been done.

Thank you."

Sokol President Renfro closed the speaking program saying: "I want to thank all of these gentlemen for the kind words and I want to turn this pro gram over to Brother Jerry Milan, physical director and to Sister Henrietta, affectionately known as "Hank" Milan, the ladies' physical director, for the afternoon program."

To the stirring "Spejme Dal, za Sokolskym praporem" the calesthenic units accompanied the Texas Flag and our Old Glory into the Hall for their presentation and Pledge.

The first number was a Children's Mass drill, executed by boys and girls under 13 years of age, drilling their separate calesthenics, in counterpoint to music, and was well received by those assembled.

The second number was the Children's Apparatus, featuring the horizontal beam, upon which young girls displayed poise and balance while executing intricate steps and dips. The boys, in the meantime were making somersaults, cart wheels and flips on long mats. It was wildly applauded, as the small fry gamely somersaulted forward and backward, and tried everything everyoneelse did.

We Czechs have much to be grattful. for in this great land of America. America took us in and we capably integrated ourselves into her society. We believe we have done well. We can be proud. Our roots extend to a country that was an• example of European democracy until a few short years ago; "Mala Amerika" (Little America) it was called The Czechs are said to be best fitted for ti mocratic government of all European peoples. Jan Nlasaryk, Jr., after a visit to Texas once observed that in certain Fayette County voting precincts where the voters were solidly Czech, nearly 'every citizen had paid his poll tax and that every eligible vote had been cast. Then quite a record in a country where 50 to 60 per cent of the eligible voters vote as a national average.

God only knows when our beloved ancestral land will be liberated from tyrannical yolk of communishri. One often hears that the Czechs in Czechoslovakia have given up hope and no longer even offer passive resistance. I do not believe this. Sure, it is difficult to see how their present predicament will be resolved, but I cannot believe that what existed foe ,o long ai time can be so easily forgottn.

Tyrannical governments, from the dawn of civilization, have been overthrown -some lasted longer than others. Caesar, Alexander, Napoleon, the Turks, Hitler; and others have come and gone. True, the y world had to sacrifice tremendously, but their regimes did not endue. in like manner, so shall the present cancerous despotism of world communism topple. We may not see its death in our lifetime, but it will come . Mankind has always managed to triumph somehow over evil, often at great expense. It will do so again.

We, Czechs pride ourselves on being hard-working, industrious people, As a nationality, our people respect the law, and rarely have serious encounters with the authorities. Our record is excellent in this regard. We like vraisic, having fur, dancing, take pride in our culinary abilities; we participate in all the 'arts and professions; and we till the soil. On t'-.e serious side, we think we know when to be sad, when to cry, when to be silent, When to be meditative. In short, we like to live a full life, based on love of our families, and enjoying cur association,) to the fullest.

We hope to have you present to express your opinion on some big issues corning up, one being enlarging or remodeling the building. This is your lodge so have a voice in its activities.

We would also like to start a youth club so our Children will grow up in the lodge as workers and at the same time have the pleasure of good, clean fun. As parents it is our duty to see they have this opportunity , Won't you come to the meetings, bring the children and help get this project underway?

The entertainment committee wishes to report great success with the dances held this past selason. However lack of heating facilities brings this to a halt with cool weather here. Therefore the last dance of the season will be Saturday, October 29. Music will be furnished by thei Zurovetz Band.

Remember the meeting November 6 and come spend the afternoon at your lodge hall.

Yourreporter, Mrs. Lumie Shiller —_.) • a„ • ( WEST, TEXAS Dear Girls: NOW that cooler weather is setting in, many of you will be cooking and baking more for your hungry family. We are urged to start our fruit cakes now, so that the cake "ripen" by Christmas.

This, of course, applies to the' liquer and brandy soaking type of cake.

I ran across a recepe the other day which was considered -- non plus ultra —or "Gourmet" quality, which called for the rindl and juice of lemon, which our good Czech 4i-others have been using for generations in their cooking. I had to

Wednesday, October , smile that just now Czech cooking was classed on the Gourmet level: Our mothers used the grated lemon rind even in baking sweet breads for the piquant flavor.

This recepe is called "Chicken in Citron" and calls for a 4-5 lb. broiler, a freeloading biddie in your yard will do, although these take a bit longer to cook tender and may have excess fat which will have to be drained off.

Cut biddie up, skin, and in 1/2 cup, butter , brown on both sides; cover and cook until tender Then remove meat, and into the fat (pour off excess fat) in the pan, add two tablespoons of sherry, one tablespoon sauterne wine, rind of one leinon, grate rind of one orange, blend; add three teaspoons lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. Pour in two cups heavy cream, continue stirring until the mixture starts bubbling and then return chicken to the liquid.

Serve with two to three cups cooked rice, arranging the rice in a ring and pouring chicken in the center, sprinkling with. Parmesan cheese.

I hope your family likes the chicken cooked this way. Chicken can be prepared in so many different ways — but a. new way is always a welcomed surprise for the family.

Until next time, happy cooking.

This year, as in the past, the program was held in the Woren's Building before a throng of delighted Czechs and interested visitors. Yes, the crowd attending this year's festivities was :truly gratifying.

Czechoslovakians from every part of the state grouped together to bring a touch of the "Old World" charm and gaiety to the bustling city of Dallas. The bright arrays of colorful Czech kroj added an extra note, of cherriness.

There were representatives from al-

Strana most every Czech fraternal society throughout Texas. Small tots, as well as young adults, thrilled at the opportunity to share their rich Czechoslovakian heritage and culture with those who witnessed the entertaining program. Included in the program were Lodge 84's little "darlings," Johnny and Justine Marie Pokladnik. These two vivacious and heart-warming children of Brother and. Sister Sid Pokladnik sang and danced their way into the hearts of all the onlookers, both young and old, And, of course, Lodge 84 was represented by the Teen - Age Choir, under the able direction to Brother Frank Henzen, singing the beloved( song "Pisnicka Ceska." Attired in native costumes, these young adults (added a sparkling note to the Czechoslovakian spirit being manifested/ on that Sunday afternoon.

A groat deal of credit for such a wonderful program belongs to none other than Mr. Nick Morris Who acted as Chairman for the Czech program. Also, recognition is directed toward Mr. Charlie Adamcik who presided as Master of Ceremonies for the gala affair. The Teen-Age Club of Lodge 84 is especially indebted to Brother Sid Pokladnik, Sister Bessie Petr, and Sister Carlene Ondrusek for their work involvdd) in the Czech Day festivities . And, last but certainly not least, we owe a considerable amount of thanks to Brother Frank Henzen who spent so much of his time in preparing the Teen-Age Choir for its performance.

I feel that the guest speaker for the prograne.‘ should be given much respect for his wonderful address to the audience. The speaker, of course, was Dr. Skrivanek from. Texas A. and M. College.

I should not fail to mention that the presence of a truly wonderful Czech orchestra did much to brighten the faces of the large crowd. I am speaking of none other than the Eric Honza orchestra which is well-known throughout our state of Texas.

VtSTNIK— WEST, TEXAS crowds for surpassing those in the past.

Very sincerely, Jerry Ann Urban Secretary-Reporter ay. • TEAMWORK IN OUR SPJST ORDER

By Jerry Ann Urban Lodge 84, Dallas, Texas Teamwork has and always will be the basis for anything great and successful.

So it is with our SPJST It cannot and will not be able to exists without teamwork.

Our SPJST has given teamwork another name. A name which best describes the life in SPJST. It is •called "brotherhood." True, there has been much talk about "brotherhodd," but unfortunately—it is not fully understood by many of us. We are accustomed to associating with the word love of fellowmen and, to he sure, it is just that. However, explanation is needed in the importance' and necessity of this thing called "brotherhood."

The SPJST is a social order which looks to its members for its support and dependence. Therefore, the members have a great responsibility. They must arm themselves with the "armor of truth," i. e. they must know the truth about themselves. They must know what they are, how they act, and where they are, how they act, and where they are going. Only then will they be able to direct their lives in harmony kith the SPJST. They must also be fully equipped with fraternity and equality or else all is lost.

Because the SPJST depends upon its metrAbers for its success or failure, brotherhood must be clearly present to insure the fulfillment of the purposes for which it has bean founded.

The SPJST was founded on the very basis of fraternalisni. Those gallant pioneers of our Order who gave so much of themselves to develop the SPJST realized that in order to be a true success, the ,SPJST could not "go it alone." They knew that attention must be paid to the It is a very definite fact that anyone other fellow, simply because we are wise could not or who did not attend members of a society where other people this year's Czech Day certainly deprived are always with us. himself of a wonderful experience.

Brotherhood and teamwork require Words cannot describe the glorious feel- much. "Give and take," fair play, coning that was shared among those of sideration of the other fellow and the Czech (slovakian birth or ancestry and ability to work for and with him are among those who happened to be for- only the pre-requisites.

It is my quires a knowledge of the, purposes for hop,,. that next year and in the years to which the SPJST exists and the purposes follow that countless numbers of Czech- of each group or committee in which we oslovakians will take part or at least at- may be working.

Brotherhood is the to make the hearts of everyone brighten driving force and the strength of our up! In the future let us try to make the great Order,

Wednesday, Ork-7ber 28, 100 An individual may feel that it isn't very easy to live out the above idea.

Truly, it is not an easy task. It takes courage to say to yourself that others count as much or even more than you do. It takes courage to go on working as hard as you can in service to others with no thought of reward.

Each SPJST member must concentrate on being "group conscious." He must be honest enough to accept his obligations as a member and he must inconvenience. himself to do his share of the work. Too much of the "let George do it" attitude will weaken and gradually destroy our Order.

You may be asking yourself with what authority do I dare .speak on a topic as broad as teamwork and brotherhood in a fraternal organization. To be quite honest with you, I have no authority with which to speak. The things I have stated in this article are based solely upon the data I have gathered through civics, government, sociology classes and the like. It was my hope that, by recording the information I have found via these different sources, you as individuals would stop for a moment and reflect upon them and see how you feel about the items mentioned in this article. I hope that by reading this article you will see how vitally necessary teamwork and brotherhood are in an organization such as the SPJST'. It would seem that a good member would train hii,rself and others in the important art of getting along with other people. For with the art of broherhoddi we will have everything; without it we will have nothing.

This has not been intended to be an advice-giving article. It is 'merely my feeling and my opinion as a teen-aged member of the SPJST. ) • • • (The engagement and approaching marriage of Miss Mary Vaculik to Lawrence Barcak, son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Barcak of Richmond, has been announced by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Julius Vaculik of Schulenburg.

Sports.Column Austin — "As a tropic isle on a wide sea, little Casa Blanca Lake is an Oasis on the near-desert of Webb County," writes Al Flury, in his article, "Oasis," in the October issue of 'Texas Game and Fish" magazine.

A dirt dam built across the Arroyo Chacon in 1950 formed the 1,700 acre lake. It is in the heart for a county recreation area, just 5 miles outside Laredo. A golf course, club house, concession stand and dance • pavilion, boat docks, swimming area, and picnic facilities are available at the lake.

"Like any other spot," writes Flury, aquatic biologist, "fishing is seasonal, meaning that anybody can go out just any time and catch a mess of fish."

Largemouth bass up to seven pounds are caught regularly. "During late February through early April, dedicated bass fishermen commonly take strings of five or more bass totaling 20 to 30 pounds, releasing fish smaller than three pound8."

According to the author, surface plugs worked right up in flooded stands of willow, mesquite, and thorny brush produce many more strikes than other methods. However, drifting across the main body of the lake, just above the dam, trailing a weighted live minnow rig, is probably the best system on the lake. Sunfish and gasper-gou are caught mostly by bank fishermen using worms, shrimp,'cut fish or other baits.

VtSTNIK—WEST,TEXAS conducted on four weekends. Dates have been set for Dec. 3-4; Dec. 17-18; Dec. 31 - Jan. 1; and Jan. 14-15. A total of 496 permits will be issued.

Requests for applications should be sent to the Game and Fish Commission, Walton State Building, Austin. Cards, complete with instructions, then will be sent to the applicants. Each person whose name is drawn will be permitted to hunt one day and may kill his limit of 12 quail. Persons drawing permits are urged! to bring their own dogs. The ground cover is so rank that the loss' of cripples and dead birds will be unusually high if dogs are not used.

There can be no substitution of names and only persons over 17 will be considered eligible for the drawing which will be held in Austin, Nov. 15. The Commission will notify all whose names are drawn as soon as possible thereafter.

• Squirrel hunts will be permitted on the Lake Tejas area in Tyler County, a ,unit of the Angelina Wildlife Management area of the Game and Fish Commission, Oct. 29 through Nov, 2. Applications will be filled on a first come basis. There will be 175 permits issued.

Applications should be made between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Oct. 20 to 28, by phoning SUnset 7-3543, Hempsill, Texas.

• • All applications for public hunts on Game and. Fish Commission wildlife management areas, must be in the Austin office by Oct. 31. A drawing for pernuts to hunt deer and turkey on these areas will be held in the Commission office Monday Oct. 31. These areas include: the Black Gap, Diablo, Kerr, Angelina, and Engeling areas. ) • 4 • (
