Nobelova svetova cena za literaturu V posledni dobe se ye svetovem tisku opet psalo o NobeloyYch cenach, udilenych kagdoroene vynikajicim pracovnikam v oboru vedy, kultury a vYznaenYin propagatortim svetoveho miru. Jednou z hlavnich cen, udilenYch kagdoro ku z Nobelovy nadace je cena za literatu TU.

Je to cena nejznarnej gi, a je jednou tech, ktere zalozil zylagtni nadaci sky chemik a priunyslnik Alfred Nobel, narozenY 21. kijna 1833 v Stokholme a zeinfelY 10. prosince 1896 v San Remu.

1864 vyletela Nobelovi do povetri labo rator a od to doby se zajimal o to, jak by zmirnil nebezpeenost vYbu gnosti nitroglycerinu. Podatilo se mu po pokusech vynalezti dynamit a bezqznaninY prach. Nobel zalo gil mnoho tovaren, kte_ re vyrabely traskaviny k technicke pray ci, zejmena pro tunely, a k valeenYm eelfn. Podporil tea Andreovu yYpravu k severni toene a obrovske sve jmeni Vice nee. 50 miliont frankil odkazal katturnim fieeltm. Nobel zejmena, zalo gil na dad, aby z ni byly odmettovany ka gdoroene vynalezy z fysiky, chemie, fysiolo gie nebo lekarstvi, et yrta cena ma bYt udelena 'nejhodnotnej gimu spisovateli sveta a patou cenu chtel napraviti A. No bel, vynalezce dynamitu, jeho zle nasledky; jest ureena tomu, kdo si ziskal nejvetgi zasluhy pro mir, t. j. pro sbratkeni lidstva, kdo se zaslou gi o odstraneni stalYch vojsk. Cena pro jednotlivY obor udeluje se mesic pied vYroeim Nobelovy smrti. Ponejpr y byla, udeleria, cena za literaturu r. 1901; S jednou nebo dvema vYjimkami jsou Nobelovy ceny za literaturu udileny ka g gi pozornost sveta vgak-dehorku.Nejvt byla vyvolana lonskeho roku, kdy byl cenou pocten sovetskY basnik a spisovatel Boris Pasternak za svoji knihu "Dr. Zivago", v rii g kriticky rozebiral zaklady a vYvoj komunisrnu. Sovetska vlada mu vg ak nedovolila udelenou mu cenu pkijmout. Pasternak zemrel pied nekolika mesici.

Z dechoslovakt dosud ge,dnY spisova-, tel Nobelovu cenu za literaturu neobdrgel. Byli site pro ni sveho easu navrgeni z es. umelcii Jarosla y VrclalickY, Otokar Btezina i Alois Jiresek, ale nebyla jim priiknuta.

Reports from our Lodges, or any other Reading Material to be published should reach the Editor, Saturday before the date of issue.

Address all matters to the Editor: P. 0. Box 85, West, Texas.

PM, P.O. Bon 400, TEMPLE, TEX.

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK Damaging Rural Mail Our Comments Oftentimes we give precedence to our Boxes Is Federal peisonal comforts at the expense of the redly worthwhile things of life.

If we are seeking better goals in life Offense

w musn't forget that for contentment wP need love and friendship of our fellowmen.

These goals can be reached by our demeanor and with our sincerity of our words.

Inthe issue of the 23rd one of our good contributors had an article in which he laments that the letters in the Czech section of our Vestnik are conspisuously deminishing, which he attributes to the fact "That the interest in the Czech language is lagging." He goes on to say that our good Czech friends and contributors often have plenty of Leasure time but that they never think of writing something inspiring: no mood, nothing to write about, either too cold or too hot; puts us to sleep, etc. Well, people are masters in finding reasons for not doing something they should. Let's therefore reflect upon what those timely Or untimely excuses have brought about.

We can easily think back at the short time that has lapsed when we in Texas lost many beautiful Czech traditions so dear to our hearts. When we, for example, still had our Czech Bands, our capable orchestras, our Choral Clubs, they said, that our Young generation wanted soriething more "American" and ti e turned away from our "Old Czechs" and the Czech traditions they brought with them. They were the ones who sponsored dances and other projects of social and cultural enrichment in our communities and they, were the ones who for years and years supported those functions, built our Lodge halls etc.

With growing indifference we buried the Czech Dramatic Clubs; we made excuses of all sorts for this, insplte of the fact that the fault was ours.

We buried the teaching of Czech in some of our high schools in Texas, but we blame the Czech publishers for its demise. Many a remark was uttered as a

PLEDGE OF AILEGIANCE "I pledge Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of Americo and to the Republic for which it stands. One Nation under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all." remedy — what the Texas Czech publishers should do, to correct the situation — but we don't subscribe to our Czech publications. The publishing of a paper takes a lot of lettuce these days, which brings on the eternal question — where! to get it?

Many times we were pre-occupied with the task of seeing that some prominent Czech didn't grow too big a head — and usually succeeded in routing their capable and willing workers into the sidelines.

It is regretful that we have had to elaborate! on these traits today for it will not help the situation any, but since our Annual Meetings are approaching and the Election of Lodge officers are usually held at that time, we want to point out our less desirable traits in hopes that some capable and willing worker in your Lodge won't be driven into the sidelines, but rather that he be given rein to use his energy for the growth and benefit of the membership and your Lodge.

Your Editor asks that you not be "mad" at hiin for the abcve comments for it was not his intention to, blame any one certain person or group, for the faults pointed out were the faults of all of us.

The Development of The Fratcnial System At the middle of the nineteenth century the term "Fraternal Benefit" was unknown and none of th estates had developed a system of laws for the granting of corporate rights or privileges to groups which might wish to operate societies in accordance with what we now know as the Fraternal Benefit Sys= tem. However, there were laws providing for the formation of corporations organized for charitable and benevolent purposes and in the beginning societies that were formed for purposes coresponding to those of our present Fraternal Benefit Societies were organized under those laws.

The first society organized on this conteninent which had all of the attributes of a Fraternal Benefit Society, was the Mechanics Mutual Aid Society which was granted a charter by special act of the Massachusetts legislature that was approved by the Governor of Massachusetts on February 12, 1846.

"For the purpose of securing to each member, in times of sickness, reliable pecuniary air from funds raised by stated mutual contributions and at death a respectable intennient, together with aid and relief to his widow, if he shall have any."

And with the right to take and hold' real and personal property for the purposes of the corporation. It had begun business as a voluntary society as early as 1841 and it was listed in the Boston City Directory, with its place of business as late as 1882, covering a period of 41 years.

The second such society of which there is an authentic record was the Shamrock Benevolent Society of Brooklyn.

In the certificate of incorporation, issued to it by the Supreme, Court of the State of New York, May 3, 1848, it is stated that the incorporators and other citizens "have for sometime past formed and kept up a voluntary association in said city for the purposes hereinafter mentioned." And that the particular business and objects of said society were "to afford relief, to members thereof in cases of sickness or destitution and to defray the expense of their burial, after e ion long the Shamrock Benevolent Society had been engaged in business before its incorporation is not shown except by the statement that it was "for some time past." But as late as 1857-58 the Brooklyn City Directory listed the Shamrock Benevolent Society and stated that it held meetings on the first Mon-

ESTNt K -- WEST, TEXAS day of each month at the Second Ward Hotel on York Street, and it set forth a list of the society's officers.

The third society of which there is au,thentic record s the Bohemian Benevolent Association organized at St. Louis March 4, 1854, and incorporated under the laws relating to charitable, religious, benevolent and educational associations March 12, 1859. (This society is now known ,as the Czechoslovak Society of America, Cicero, Ill.) It is unfortunate that the laws providing for the incorporation of such associations did not require them to make annual reports. Because of the lack of such requirement, there is no way of detenx4ning who their officers are, their places of business nor how long they continued in business.

Afterwards numerous other societies were formed, among them the Ancient Order of United Workmen by John Jordan Upchurch in 1868. For several years he was credited with having instituted the first Fraternal Benefit Society, but as has already been pointed out, that assumption is not well founded. However Mr. Upchurch and his society appear to have inspired others to organize similar societies and during the next quarter of a century a great number of societies were organized and their membership grew to a very large total. In fact, it is stated by Richard DeKipp, in his thesis on Fraternal Benefit Societies, that in the middle of the last decade of the nineteenth century more insurance was 'held in Fraternal Benefit Societies in the United States than in old line life insurance companies.

With the development of the Fraternal Benefit System and the expansion of the programs of the societies, laws were en acted in the various states in accordance with the judgement of particular legislators . It was not until 1910 that a uniform law, known as the New York Conference Bill was agreed upon and it was another decade and more before many of the states had adopted it. As a matter of fact, it has never been adopted in its entirity in some of the states. I refer particularly to New Jersey and Virginia.

The delay in adopting it was due in some instances to an unyielding attitude on the part of the Insurance Departments, in others to the viewpoint of members of the legislature, in still others to the influence of persons who regard the Frat rnal System as injurous to their own interests, and in some instances to the fact that the societies were not in complete agreement as to he advantages of particular provisions of the bill.

Thie purpose of the pioneer society, The Mechanics Mutual Aid Society, as stated in its certificate of incorporation,

Strana 13 to provide for the member during illness, a respectable interment at death and for "his widow, if he shall have any," was in keeping generally with the orginal purpose of Fraternal Benefit Societies, i.e., to provide for the widows and orphans of their members at the lb rie of death.

This was inherent and originally there was no provision for the designation of beneficiaries. Payment was made to the next of kin, whomever that might me — wife, children, grandchildren, etc. The primary beneificiaries were the widow and the orphons and it was to relieve their distress that the Fraternal Benefit Societies were organized and for which they existed.

These early conditions had not changed , greatly when the New York Conference bill was adopted in 1960. It limited the amount of insurance that might ISe written. It required a separation Of funds. It strictly limited the persons to whom death benefits might be paid. It limited the age at which persons might become beneficial members. It made no provision for loans such as are known as "policy loans." It did not provide far cash surrender values. It oracle no provision for juvenile insurance. In faCt it limited the operation of the Fraternal Benefit Societies pretty closely to the original concept of the term.

But changing economic conditions, the development of new plans of insurance and more (Vigorous competitionby insurance companies made necessary the removal of these restrictions. To do th3l3 was a slow and often very difficult proe)ess but to a very great extent it has been accomplished by special legislation.

It is a well known fact that insurance legislation is influenced by the InSuru ance( Departments of the various states.

The vast majority of the Insuranc.4 Commissioners have manifested friendly interest in the Fraternal Berlefit System and Fraternal Benefit Societies and they have cooperated by pro, mating legislation that would be to their advantage and discouraging legislation that would be injurious to them. Out of several hundred who have directed the destinies of the various Insurance Departments during the past seventy-five years, the number of Commissioners who have evidenced an attitude of hos7 tility toward Fraternal Benefit Societies and the Fraternal Benefit System could be counted on the fingers of one hand. ) • 011, ° ( All our.

14: Brother Arnold Vrla Hsnore His District Organizers Strana

Sunday, November 27, brother Arnold Vria, District Three Organizer honored the organizers in his District Three with a workshop and luncheon at the newly enlarged and remodeled Lodge 154 in Fort Worth, Texas. More than 35 per sons were present at this meeting.

Brother Vria opened the meeting at 2:45 p A ri. with a greeting to all and acknowdg;ed "regrets" from those organizers who were unable to attend due to previous committments or illness. He thanked Lodge 154, for allowing the District Three Organizers the use of their lovely Hall; thanked the sisters who prepared the luncheon; Bro. Joe B. Hejny, VicePresident of the Supreme Lodge in charge of Organizational work for coming and assisting with the workshop and recognized Lodge 154's presdenit, Bro. John Becan to say a few words.

Bro. Becan extended greetings in behalf of his Lodge and wished the meeting success.

Bro. Vrla then launched into the meat of the meeting, namely; changes in the rate books as affected by the San Antonio Convention last June.

So, pulling out their rate books, the brother and sister Organizers, followed through and corrected changes in their books until such time as new editions can be mailed out to them, sometime early next year.

Pro. Vrla, always comes well prepared for interesting workshops. This time he showed his organizers how to work out a prospect's Social Security Survivors Payment benefits to work in with our policies for income. It was a Oost interesting session as he took us step by step through the different phases of our policy on this particular type. He banded'out mimeographed sheets for the particular problem presented. Social Security brochures were also handed out to each organizer, which, of course he had to procure beforehand, preparatory for this particular workshop. To top the whole session he showed a slide pro.jee er-record hypothetical case history of one John Doe who put off getting a&quate, coverage for a week only to be killed that week. It showed his widow rt rining out of money after paying for hospital and funeral bills which ate up 1'1'2; insurance money. She tried to save her mortgaged home by selling her television, furniture and even her engagement ring only to forfeit her home in

VESTNIK— WEST, TEXAS the end. Heir earning capacity proved to be way lower than that of her deceased husband. Being down to earth the message got across., Brother Hejny also talked policies, and his too, was a very informative session.

Even the wives agreed that it was interesting and down to earth.

It was a pleasure to see Brother Jaresh from the Tioga Lodge present with his charming lady. Theirs is the northern most lodge in our District, quite a piece and their effort in making the Workshop was most appreciated.

The busy Elk Lodge folks were there too. They plan to have their Christmas Program on the 18th of December. This One they are going to tell the rest of the SPJST Family that they' are alive and active and how it all came out. Of course, Elm Mott's Santa will also come after their Lodge Meeting on the 17th.

They, too, have such a wonderful time.

Needless to say, the luncheon and re freshments were wonderful, the fellowship excellent and every Organizer agreed that it was time well spent at this meeting. Congratulations to Brothers Vrla and Hejny for a successful meeting.

Your preparation and your time spent with these District Three Organizers will in turn reflect on meeting the quotas in selling insurance. You had a fine, workshop.

Our congratulations to all our fine group of organizers and again thanks to Lodge 154 for their outstanding hospitaility.

Brother Keever Dies In Ennis Friends and the brotherhood were saddened to learn of the passing of Brother J. F. Keever,of Ennis, Who died unexpectealy.

Brother Keever and his charming missus never missed any of the Czech Lodge activities. They admired the Czech people very much, and became an SPJST member to enjoy this fellowship.

He was on every good project for the city of Ennis, and the City of Ennis as well as the SPJST local lodge mourn his passing. Brother Keever owned the Ennis Funeral Home in Ennis and many SPJST members nave had their funerals conducted from his establishment.

Our heartfelt sympathy goes to the bereaved family from the brotherhood.

May he rest in eternal peace.

A person without an aim is like a ship without a rudder -- not likely to get anywhere.

Looking forward to seeing each of you Sunday December 4th, at 1:30 p.m. I remain, Fraternally yours, Steve L. Svetlik, Secty ) • 4 • WACO LODGE NO. 66 Mr. Chairman, Brothers and Sisters and Visitors: I am not a trained speaker, but a self-made country boy, constantly trying for something better for our Lodge 66. For over 35 years I have sincerely worked for our lodge often against great odds with never a thought of being paid for my labours of love for Lodge 66 and I stil feel that way tOday. I sincerely want to see our lodge united, working in fraternal harmony for the good of us all .You have often heard me say that Team Work is the basis of anything worthwhile and successful and to make our lodge grave, we will have to work together as one great team, in true fraternal spirit let us all put away our pet gripes and fancied hurts and decide that for 1961 we will work in Unity for the good of the Slovanic Linden Lodge No. 66.

Brothers and sisters it is our responsibility to anri ourselves with a desire to serve our lodge and serve it well, always truthfully representing its interests, to work in sincere harmony, to learn how to give and take as true Fraternalists.

Not anyone of us can go alone and accomplish anything worthwhile far our lodge but on the con trary by keeping a chip on our shoulder justified or unjustified we can do our lodge a lot of harm, so fellow members if you feel that you have a chip on Your shoulder

VE ST NiK— WEST, TEXAS bring it out in the open and I assure you that if it is justified your fellow members will meet you more than half way to correct the situation and help you get back in the right spirit and you will feel better for doing so. A good Fraternalist must have the ability to work for and with his fellow members, he must learn the great art of Give and Take, he must be considerate and fair, he has to learn to sacrifice selfist interests to be a good fraternalist. Brotherhood is the driving force of our order and our lodge, and as an individual you may not think that this is easy to do, and I agree with you that to be a good Fraternalist sn't easy. Each member of our lodge must concentrate on being group conscious, he must be honest enough to accept his obligation as a member and inconvenience him self to do his share of the work that comes up to carry on our lodge. Too much of the "Let John do it" attitude will weaken our lodge and in time even destroy it, and I am sure that not one of us would like to see this happen, and that each of you will ask yourself in all sincerity this question, "Have I always thought, worked for the best interests of our lodge? Have I said things that hurt the feelings of our fellow members? Have I worked sincerely and unselfishly and tried to help my fellow members do a better job for our lodge?" and some of us might come up a little shy.

Recently a fellow member of our lodge asked brie for the actual meaning of fraternalism, "Just what does Fraternalism mean " he asked, and I will try to give you some idea of what Fraternalism means and Where it got its start.

Fraternalism is founded on the principle that man is truly his brother's keeper, each of us have the responsibility of our fellowman. This spirit of brotherhood of man, is as old as the ancient history that inspired the inception and stimulated the development of fraternal life insurance such as is our great Order the SPJST of tod Iay, Those of you who have read history books, remember reading of the brotherhood expressed in the loosely organized semi-religious societies of ancient Greece which rendered financial assistance to their members in sickness and death, we have read of this in the early days of the Roman Empire Where similar societies have flourished, collecting funds frcrri their members, which were held in trust and used to pay for funerals and for fraternal gatherings of their memberships. All through the centuries we have recorded stories of those societies whose noble purpose was to lessen the financial burdens of their members and those of widows and orphans.

Wednesday, November 30, 1960 Even in centuries before present day fraternal life insurance was not even dreamed of, even in those times there was keen appreciation of the cruelties and hardships a death of the bread winner in a family brings to his widow and chidren, so through the organization of simple and crude societies, men were desperately trying to find some practical solution to ease the ruthless blow death brings to innocent widows and children.

The early societies regoznized that man is a social animal that hungers and is in need of companionship, they therefore set• about to provide a way for man to meet in friendly gatherings where selfishness and prejudice would be surpressed and where the principals of brotherhood might be simplified, thus building a better understanding and finer fellowship among its meoribers.

This was the first practical example of true fraternalism, and we can see that even in dim ages of the past that these leaders of the past knew that if life was to be happy man must live in peace and harmony and that brothers and sisters is today's fraternalism.

In conclusion brothers and sisters, I would like to ask you to think over seriously the message I have tried to bring to you, to sincerely say to yourself that you too will work unselfishly, sincerely with your fellowman for the betterment of our lodge Slovanie Linden in true spirit of sincere heart warming fraternalism. Forget your own selfish interests, pet peeves and work for a better tonorrow and a better Slovanic Lindeu Lodge. For some of us that will mean a sacrifice; for some of us it will be easy and I do not criticize anyone but I feel that in bringing you this message that it ':.v ay bring us all a little closer together, to help us work in unity and harmony for I know that in so doing we will all be much happier working to getter.

Fraternally, Otto Hanus Editor's Note: Many thanks for this fine article. ) 4 4, • it BEDRICH SMETANA LODGE NO. 39 Bryan, Texas Dear Sisters and Brothers, Just a few lines to give you the highlights on the progress of our lodge and our annual meeting which was held Sunday, November 13th in our hall.

As usually we had a very nice attendance.

Brother President Frank Vytopil opened the meeting about 2:00 p.m. and announced to us that on account of his health he would not be able to hold his office any longer.

This we all regretted to hear as Bro. Vytopil was a 'very faithful worker and a

Wednesday, November 30, 1960 very good leader he worked faithfully for the SPJST for about twenty-five years.

But we didn't just drop him and forget him, as a reward for his hard work we elected him an honorary president of our lodge for the rest of his life.

It was through his efforts that our lodge gained about fifty five members this year and God was with us as we lost only one member this year and he was Brother John Cajka.

Brother Vytopil thanked all the mem* bens for their co-operation during his administration as an officer and promised to keep working with us as long as he can or will be able to work.

We all hope that Brother Vytopil will live with us for many years as we still heed him to lean on when tough problems face us.

The following officers were elected for the coming year.

Brother Steve Regmund — President Brother Will Bayer -- Vice-President Sister Lillie Matejka — Secretary Brother Jerry Vytopil — FinancialSecretary Sister Julia Cech — Treasurer Sister Dorothy Vytopil — Local Youth Leader Sister Aline Kuder — Kitchen Chairman.

Other committees will be elected in our January meeting and our next meeting will be held the second Sunday in December.

Many Thanks to Brother Steve Regmund and the rest of the entortainbent committee for their untiring work for our lodge as all our dances and other entertainments were a great success.

The first dance in our new hall was held December 26th 1959 and since then we paid our Suprem Lodge $6,000.00 on our hail debt' and besides that we spent about $2,000 cash for furniture, air conditioning and other improvements around our hall.

Thanks to all our members for their good cooperation in working with us and bringing their friends to our dances.

And with these • last few words I wish all the SPJST members and my friends a merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.

The Grace Of November Now November is gone but it paraded before us the final golden days of autumn, the last rosy glow of indian summer before winter will dominate our land. And we know that winter must come. The recent rain, the wind and the chill have made it clear to us . Yet November has been a period of grace.

For a week or so, now you still may be able to catch the beauty of the pin oak or the maple, and until a more severe freeze you may be able to gee some still green lawns, which seem to be more fresh and beautiful than ever. A few hardly chrysanthemurois porsist in a fading garden. Nature's transition moves ahead, but it has been slower this November. The chill in the air can be invigorating, too. We may be spurred to new tasks, mindful that winter is upon us and a frigid hand will grip the land very soon..

November has represented autumn at its finest. It has climaxed the harvest season with Thanksgiving tables and the grand, exciting final days of this football season. It has been fine for outdoor exercise such as raking the falling leaves, walks through fields and woods.

But alas, the month and the season flea away and winter must soon arrive.
