21. UNORA (FEBRUARY) 1962

ROCNIK (VOLUME) 50 Cislo (No.) 8

Jliti WASHINGTON, OTEC VLASTI Bylo jaro, stied dubna roku 1775. Jevi§tem, byla kopcovita krajina kolem massachusettskych obci Lexingtonu a Concorde. Britske vojsko v eervenSrch kabatech stretlo se tam s tlupou odhodlanSich farmata a vesnieant. Zaeinala americka revoluce.

let dosahl hodnosti dUstojnika v armade. Brzo na to, puzen laskou k svemu lidu a pol boku vlastencil jako byli Patrick Henry, Bejamin Franklin, Tom Jefferson a Samuel Adams zastaval se prava kolonii o samostatnost. Zmukile

Ralph Valdo Emerson, prosluly americkY spisovatel a basnik, nazval prvni vYsttel bitvy u Lexingtonu a Concordu vYsttelem, "kterY bylo slyAeti kolem sveta". Americkoa revoluci vskutku pocitily mnohe ylady na svete jeji nasledky ovlivnily budoucnost. Ozvena onoho pry-nib° yYsttelu ozSrva se je gte i dnes.

Jednim dtivodem je moZna, to, Ze arnericka revoluce nebyla pouhYm politickYm Povstanim. Mela dalekosahle moralni a duchovni spodni proudy. Prohlakni nezbvislosti, k nomuk koncept napsal Toma" Jefferson, prohlaAovalo za "oeividnou pravdu" fakt, 2e vgchni lids jsou stvoteni navzajem si rovni, ke mail ad Boha jim dand prava na kivat, svobodu a vyhledavani Stesti.

Jednim ze symbol-a aspiraci tehdejAi doby byl Jill. Washington, jehok 230te yYrodi narozenin oslavime 22. imora.

Tento muk v pudroyane paruce, s veilkYm nosem a tenkYmi rty, stal se ohniskem nadeje a pozornosti nejen Amerieant, kteti toukili rozlomiti okovy tyranstvi, ale vilbec vAech lidi, at' uk kdekoli na svete, jimk byl ideal svobody take drahY. narodil se, jak jej zveme "otcem vlasti" na plantaki pri Bridge Creek v okresu Westmorland. — Dostalo se mu v se prohlasil pro ztizeni republiky. — Pomladi peelive vYchovy a dobrYch Akol. lokil tak zaklad, k uskuteeneni snii koloMel dobre nadani, tak ke jik ye veku 18 nistu a proto yzpominame jej slovy: —

Prvni ye valce, pryni v miru a pryni v srdcich s yYch spoluobeanil.

Mezi temito poslednimi byl i mark3"rz Lafayette, celokivotni pate]. Washingtontiv. Lafayette bojoval v hodnosti generalmajora po boku vojensky rievicvieenYch Anlerieant na pude, ktera se mela kratce na to stati jejich vlasti. Krome neho ptigel Washingtonovi na pomoc i Polak Tadeusz Kosciuzsko, kterk se postavil za americke revolucionate a pozd_eji se stal WashingtonovYm poboenikern a dobrYm pfitelem. 0 viterstvi americke revoluce zasloukil se i pruskS) general Wilhelm von Steuben, kterk cvieil otrhane, hladovejlci vojensk y sbory ye Valley Forge.

I v same Anglii, kde se dala eekat urakena hrdost a zatrpkle vzporninky, naili se myslitele, kteti byli ochotni pohlileti americkou revoluci realisticky a kteti se snakili ptijimati ji jako fisek nezmenitelnYch dejn. Zasady revoluce byly tedy hluboce pocit'ovani v zapadni i ye vYchodni Evropo. Byly pocit'ovany a nasledovani i Latinskou Amerikou, a v neda yne dobe i Asii a Afrikou.

Tito zasady rovnosti, sebeureeni, lidskYch pra y nejsou eimsi pomijejicim.

FROM THE EDITOR'S DES; all over the United States — rarely fail to make the trip to Mount Vernon. They wander through the house, peer into the room — furnished now as it was then — in which Washington died. Out in the sun again, they walk down the grassy lane, pass through a gate and stop before a vault. On the ground they see two plain marble slabs, side by side, which bear the inscriptions: George Wasbington 1732-1799 — Martha Washington, 1732-1902.

What was there about this man to inspire these pilgrimages?

The monuments, the sightseers, might indeed seem strange to the man who in his lifetime placed such a high premium on privacy. After leading the American Revolutionary Army to victory in the fight for independence, Washington retired to Mount Vernon, where he hoped to spend the remainder of his life. From this retirement he was abruptly called fourth, and came with considerable reluctance, to assume the political leadership of the new nation.

GEORGE WASHINGTON On February 22nd we observe the 230th anniversary of George Washington's birth — an occasion particularly meaningful, one imagines, to those Of our citizens who live in the Nation's capital. This section of our land was home to George Washington long •before he became the first President and the "Father of His Country." There he was born.

Reading a book in youth has been compared to looking at the moon through a crack; reading the same book in adulthood, is looking at the same moon from your back yard; reading the same book in old age, is like looking at the moon from the top of a mountain: thus, the benefits to a reader depends largely on the depth of his own experiences.

I sincerely hope that this will encourage the children tobetter attendance and activity in your club.

You, the Youth Director, will play a big part in this program and a lot will depend on you to make this program a success. Be sure to keep close rcord of your meetings and all activities, so that you may have a complete roster of your children and that you may keep an accurate count of points each child earns.

Wishing you a lot of success, I remain.

65th Anniversary Dear Fellow-workers: This year marks the 65th Anniversary of our SPJST Order. Sixty-five years of life insurance service with Benevolence, Humanity, and Brotherhood benefits.

Let us all join hands and make this a banner year. A year that shall remain in History of our SPJST. Let us all make an all out effort in securing new members. Ask your fellow members for leads. The Supreme Lodge will have gifts available at cost price for you to give to your members whenever they provide you with a lead in writing a new member.

We would like to urge you to help promote lodge and youth activities in your local lodge. It is always easier to write new members into a lodge which can provide some entertainment for their members.

We are also sponsoring an application a month club this year and those of you who will write an application for 12 consecutive months will receive a certificate of award, and if this proves satisfactory, we hope to continue this in the following years which would enable you to receive certificates of award for 24, 36, 48. etc. months.

Should you have any questions or if you need information regarding any of the plans in our 1962 schedule, please contact your District Organizer or write direct to this office and we will be happy to oblige.

Fraternally yours, Joe B. Hejny ( )• Temperance and labor are two best known medicines; labor makes food and rest desirable and temperance keeps us from taking either in excess.

Health Records Sooner or later, everyone needs a family health record. Dr. J. E. Peavy, state health commissioner, suggests you start yours now if you aren't already keeping one. Kept accurate and current, it can be of permanent value for the children's school records, for insurance data, and for your family doctor's use, the health officer says.

A school note pad makes a good record book, but don't use it for anything else.

And remember it has to be carefully kept if it is to be of full value.

You can start by jotting down the basic information you already have at hand concerning the injury and illness history of each member of your family.

Start it off with a brief listing of family history. Enter the date and place of birth of each person, and the place and date and cause of death of any deceased.

Also enter pertinent information and the medical facts about each family member, such as the presence of chronic illness or physical handicapp.

Next, start a section for dates of immunizations, being sure to provide space for each, member of the family. Allow room for entering dates of immunizations against whooping cough, polio,

Wednesday, February

1962

smallpox, diphtheria, tetanus, and typhoid fever. Don't forget to include the dates of booster shots.

In a section of general information, list such things as the type of blood each member of the family has, and the drug sensitivities or special allergies of each. If the RH blood factor is known to be present in anyone, be sure to record it prominently.

The health record ought to include a check list of who in the family has had the more common diseases of childhood — chicken pox, measles, mumps, whooping cough, scarlet fever, diphtheria. Most of these are diseases of childhood, but sometimes an adult is exposed. German measles is a serious threat to expectant mothers, and mumps is a dangerous disease in any adult.

Dates of physical examinations, with a line or two for notes of special advice or instructions that followed the checkup should be noted in the health record.

So also should illnesses requiring hospitalization, listing the nature of illness or injury, name of physician and hospital, dates of entry and discharge, the length of illness, and type of surgery, if any.

Finally, list the family's health and accident insurance information for quick and easy reference when needed.

According to Mr. J. W. Holland, District Director of the San Antonio Immigration and Naturalization Service office, the information furnished by aliens in reporting their addresses has been declared confidential by statute.

These reports must be submitted during January each year by all aliens in the United States with few exceptions.

Forms on which to submit the reports are available at any Post Office or office of the Immigration and Naturalization Service. Persons who are unable to pick up a form because of illness, or other reasons. may have a relative or friend obtain a card for them.

Who iys asurance?

That's a good question. And after 65 years in the life insurance business, we the SPJST know the answer.

And the answer is as follows: People of character buy Life Insurance! That's the answer in six Short words!

Generally, persons who purchase life insurance are those same, thrifty, prudent souls who support the American. economy through putting aside in banks and Life Associations.

They are the persons who know th4at one never gets something for nothing and that there is no such thing as a free lunch.

They are the people generously endowed with this spirit which impelled our pioneer Czech ancestors to cross the seas, prairies, the spirit of self-reliance, in which courage, faith and hard work are inherent — perhaps some blood, sweat and tears, also.

Primarily, men and women purchase life insurance because they have enough character to provide for the future of their families and themselves, come what may. In doing so, these people of character at the same time purchase shares in America! The premium dollars which these people spend for life insurance are put to work — they build roads; they finance industry; they help families enjoy the pride of home ownership.

There is no industry in Texas which has been subjected to as much legislative investigation or drawn innocently into as many political controversies as insurance. It has been in the cross fire of personality conflicts in government.

Candidates for office ranging from constable to the United States Senate. have used insurance in one way or another for campaign fodder.

Other than being a whipping boy, Texas insurance has kept clear of politics. The further removed this vital industry can stay from the shifting balances of political power the better it is for Texas. The industry has found that it can live with and grow under any set of rules laid down by law and it asks only that these rules be fairly and impartially administered. It is entirely beside the point that those who administer the laws were favorites of one political figure or group or another.

Regulating the highly involved insurance industry is a difficult undertaking at best. It will be a sad day for Texas if hopes for political rewards or 'fears of political recrimination should influence those charged with this regulation. The end result of such a state

Strana 15

VESTNIK— WEST, TEXAS of affairs would - be equally as vicious as regulation by wholesale bribery and would bring nothing but chaos.

In every man and woman of character who owns life insurance owns a slice of American industry and American business.

Every man who owns a life insurance policy is investing in the dynamic economy of America. Your SPJST Organizer is here to serve you, won't you call on him today? ) * 4

Will You Sign Up for the Feed Grain Program?

Eligible producers may sign up in the 1962 feed grain program now.

Approved base acreages and payment rates have been mailed to all eligible producers. The 1962 payment rates are the same for 1962 as they were in 1961.

For 1962 the program is voluntary just as it was in 1961. However, for a producer to be eligible for price support on his normal production of feed grain he must sign up in the program and divert at least 20 per cent of his feed grain base.

The acreage diverted must be put to some conserving use in 1962; such as a cover of grass or legumes or the diverted acreage may be left idle and summer fallowed. The acreage diverted may be grazed until May 1, 1962; however, no grazing is permitted after this date through December 31, 1962.

A producer interested in more than one farm must participate or plant within his Feed Grain base on all farms in order to be eligible for price support on any farm. For instance a producer with three farms may divert on two and be eligible for price support on these provided he does not exceed his feed grain base on the other farm.

The minimum acreage to be diverted in any case is 20 per cent of the Feed Grain Base. The maximum, if the base is over 100 acres, is 40 per cent of the base. If the base is less than 100 acres the maximum is 20 acres plus 20 per cent of the base; thus producers with feed grain bases of 25 acres or less may divert their entire base if they so desire.

must be paid promptly in settling an estate.

Life Insurance can provide this necessary cash to protect your family's interest When it is needed most. It can also provide cash for family expenses until your estate is probated.

There are many advantages in a life insurance policy which may be helpful to your family. Without obligation you are invited to discuss these advantages with one of our Organizers.

Insurance is a vital segment of our "free enterprise system" economy and is basic to our American way of life. Our Organizers through their individual efforts are responsible not only for helping to provide the people of America with financial security and independence — but the funds they make available for lending capital are a significant force in acclerating the expansion of our economy. These men are doing their share to preserve our free enterprise system and our American way of life, These men are your next door neighbors. ) 0 4 0 ( —

Dear Members: Today, the standard of living you and your family enjoy is maintained from current income. Someday, •the money for family expenses must come from your estate.

Too often, the transition from one situation to the other makes it necessary to liquidate estate assets at a loss to settle death expenses an,d debts that

To Our C I hope you got rid of youl old callouses when you entered the New Year. Sometimes it is easy to forget the good things of life insurance. Its virtues become so common that it is easy to take them as a matter of course. Some people, it has been said, would even be bored with heaven!

Some good life, underwriters have been lured away into the field of other investments. They have , forgotten the wonderful benefits found only in a life contract. They have forgotten its guarantees.

In the hoop hoo-raw, everybody get rich days, they have forgotten its absolute safety. They have forgotten its precious promises.

It would be a blessing to many, if they cOuld feel again the thrill that was theirs when they wrote their first application.

That was when they felt so deeply that their work was a mission to service to humanity. They felt that they were benefactors of mankind, Thank goodness, this feeling has never been lost with many.

Rather it has grown in intensity.

There is the source of genuine enthusiasm. Without this sort of enthusiasm, the life underwriter is merely the mouthcc of fine words and phrases.

The life underwriter with ninety per cent knowledge and ten per cent enthusiasm will likely fail. P'.it the underwriter with ten per cent knowledge and ninety per cent enthusiams, is on the hifgh road to success!

Sincerely, Frances Skrasek • •( DISTRICT SEVEN Corpus Christi, Texas Brothers and Sisters: The officers of the Seventh District held a special called meeting on Feb. 11th at 10:00 a.m. at the home of brother and sister Charles Holasek in. Corpus Christi, Texas.

Those present were: Brother Kleprlik, District Organizer; Sister Kleprlik, District Youth Director; Brother Veselka., President, Brother Pete Valchar, First Vice-President; Brother Charles Holasek, District Seven Director; and Sister Jurica, Secretary. Brother Elsik, Treasurer, was unable to attend the meeting as Lodge No. 118 held its regular meeting at his home.

It was brought out that District officers have the authority to decide what is best for the good of the District and also that the ideas be approved by majority of the membership of the District.

This Special Meeting was called because the time is nearing for the Spring District Meeting and a few difficulties have arisen.

Sister Kleprlik read several letters concerning the District Seven Youth Program, at the last District meeting which was held on October 1, 1961 at Lodge No. 118 Kingsville, Texas. Sister Kleprlik was openly told by several members that she didn't notify the local lodges that a Youth Program was being planned and that several lodges weren't able to present a program. Sister Kleprlik brought all of her correspondence to this Special Meeting and read the letters, whereas, all of us present found that she did notify all of the local lodges.

Sister Kleperlik wrote a letter to Sister

VAST 44

--- WEST, TEXAS

Spencer of Lodge No. 56, informing her that the Youth were asked to participate at the District Seven Youth Program.

She also read letters from Brother Hejny and from. Brother Stasa, and also her replies to all of these letters. The officers agreed that the Youth Director of District Seven did her duty but that it was overlooked by the local lodges.

Programs are mailed regularly to all lodge Youth Leaders from the SPJST Supreme Lodge. These programs are suitable for all occasions and if any lodge desires extra entertainment they must find it wherever possible. There are no excuses acceptable that a program cannot be planned by any lodge. In every lodge there are talented children; ask them to participate and they'll gladly oblige.

Another question was asked and that is the date of the next District Seven Meeting.

Sister Kleprlik also has a letter dated 10-8-61 and it was received from Brother Stasa of Lodge No. 56, stating that he had written to the Supreme Lodge and designated a date on which District Seven could hold a Meeting. As brother Stasa received no answer from the Supreme Lodge, he directly wrote to the Editor of the Vestnik, brother Hosek.

Brother Stasa set the date as April 29th.

This date was announced in the Czech Calendar of Activities but never in the English Section. So it now happens that there will be two District Meetings held on the same date. Lodge No. 56 asked for this date on October 8, 1961, therefore, District Seven was the first to set their date for their annual Spring District Meeting.

Youth Directors of Local Lodges of District Seven are asked to report their part of the programs to Sister Kleprlik

by April 15th; but those who report later will be last to ap p ear on the program.

There are many good workers who work for no pay, therefore it proves that there are members who are still working for the good of the brotherhood.

A motion was made and approved that no traveling expenses will be paid to participants coming to the District Seven Youth Program. It is up to each local lodge to pay their own expenses. As of today, in the District Seven Fund there is $200. This amount of money will have to do for the next two District Meetings.

Each participant will receive an award.

Officers of District Seven have discussed the awards and planned to the best of their ability, and as funds allowed, for this program.

The Meeting will begin promptly at 10:00 o'clock in the morning 'till noon.

The program will begin at 1:30 p.m. Fol-

Straw& 21 lowing the children's Program, adults will be given a chance to show their talent. Among the adult leaders there are many who are musicians, singers and jokesters.

Let's make this meeting a success.

More information will be in the future issues of the Vestnik.

Don't forget the date — April 29 — at Lodge No. 56, Corpus Christi, Texas.

Fraternally, Betty Jarica, Secretary, Dist. Seven )• •( LODGE NO. 26 SKIDMORE Dear Members: Our first Meeting of the year will be held March 4th, 1962, at 1:00 p.m. at the Olmos Club Building.

This Meeting will be a very important Meeting due to the fact that the members present will be deciding and voting on a certain sum of money which will be donated by Lodge No. 26 toward improving the Olmos Club Building.

Each lady that plans to attend is requested to kindly bring some sweet pastry to be served in the afternoon, buffet style. Many thanks.

Let's all try to improve our Lodge attendance in 1962. So, come on out, members and friends.

LODGE NO. 48 BEYERSVILLE Dear Readers: We held our monthly meeting on February 4th. A letter was read about the 65th Anniversary of our Supreme Lodge.

Each Lodge should plan to celebrate this occasion. There will be a Queen and Duchess Contest held. The Youth Club is to select candidates for this contest.

I'm sorry to report that two of our members passed away in January. They were: I3orther Henry W. Hejl and Sister Milady Hejl, both former officers of our Lodge. The president asked for a moment's silent'Prayer in due respect to the deceased members.

I had forgotten that she had left two daughters: Mrs. John Adamelk of Smithville and a daughter, Sophie, in Houston. I'm sorry I have forgotten her last name-. Then, one son is in La Grange, Mr. Julius Holubec and one son passed away a few years ago.

Our sympathy goes to the bereaveed family.

We have a few members Who are old and sick, We hope the weather settles and warms up; it would make every person feel better quick. Now, one day -you have to put on so much clothing until you can't bend over and the next day, you have to drag it up stairs to get it out of the way, -- Texas weather!

It won't be lon g now until time to plant potatoes. -- Valentine's Day — I think it Would be better to wait yet.

So, you members come out more often to our meetings and ,help us plan for our District Meeting. Something else: Easter will creep up on us also pretty fast. Guess it makes us feel we are getting older. We also have to prepare for our District Meeting coming up.

Well, it I ha ve forgotten to write, I'll try to think of it next time. So, you all don't work too hard.

My beSt wishes to you all, Your reporter, Lillie Bvicic 91°,1 * Do We Learn By Experience?

If experience were really the best teacher, the average American would be the world's foremost expert on the common cold: as a nation we get 500 million of them annually, and each person in an urban family has an average of almost five colds a year! all this experience, however, hasn't helped our knowledge: more of us -still aren't sure if chills alone can bring colds . . . if colds are caused by viruses or bacteria . . . exactly what anti-histamines do against cold germs . . whether or not one cold can make you immune to another.

Sports Column From Texas Game and Fish Commission FISHERMEN WARNED TO BUY LICENSES Austin — Spring weather has kindled the urge to fish, and fishermen are reminded that a fishing license is required in most instances, according to J. B. Phillips, coordinator Of law enforcement for the Game and Fish Commission.

V2STNiK ..-WEST, TEXAS ticiently that U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service increased the bag limit from 10 to 15 birds per day, and possession limit from 20 to 30 birds. He says that in the 1960 hunting season, some 450,000 Texas hunters bagged in excess of 14 million birds.

The Resolution offered, by Congressman Karth provides that "notwithstanding any other provisions of this Act, the Secretary of the Interior shall not allow the hunting, taking, capturing, killing, possession, sale, purchase, shipment, transportation, carriage or export at any time of the mourning doves."

Strana 25 by 4-H and FFA Clubs, under a program recently adopted by the Game and Fish Commission.

4 4 e NATURE'S BEAUTY An Indian lecturer, Charles Eagle Plume, tells of an old Indian who was entertained in one of our large cities. He was taken to the best night clubs, heard the swing bands and was shown how white men have their fun. He sat through a number of movies, and was feverishly rushed from place to place and given a taste of modern life in all its phases.

When the entertainment was finished the old Indian was asked what he thought of it. "Ughg" he grunted, "white man must be unhappy — work so hard to have good time — no have good time at all. Indian, he sit on rock and watch sun go down every night. Much good time. Moonlight on rippling water — much good time. Watch fire burning low — much good time. Hear pine trees whispering together on hilltop — much good time. Very still stars, like heap and heap candles in heaven much good time."

The Indian trail to happiness is worth following. There is healing for jangled nerves and tired minds in the woods, the hills, the singing streams, and the mountain-tops. ) 4 Longer lasting collars and cuffs on men's wash-wear shirts and a single treatment that gives cotton wash-wear properties and also permanently dyes, starches and adds other finishing agents to the fabric have been announced as research developments by scientists of the U. S. Department of Agriculture.

• • The U.S. Department of Agriculture says the recent hard freeze could be a big help, to sweet pOtato growers in seven Southeastern states. In these states, including Texas, the low temperatures reduced populations of the sweet potato weevil to the lowest point in years. If farmers act immediately to give nature an assist, they may be able to kill more of the weevils. Insecticides should be applied to sweet potatoes in storage to kill the weevils which may have survived in fins and warehouses.

The mourning dove has been the principal game bird of Texas for a good many years. In Minnesota, however, it is considered a song bird and the killing is prohibited under state law. This is true in a number of states, particularly in the Middle West. The bird being migratory, many of those harvested in Texas come from nesting grounds throughout the Middle West.

Fraternity Fraternity is a lovely plant That grows in a garden place; A plant that can fill your life with peace, With fragrance and charm and grace.

A plant that can lend its color rare To brighten the dargest sky; A plant that can banish loneliness And send away despair.

But whether it blooms depends on you, For the plant is a fragile one; You must warm its leaves with the golden light Of affection's shining sun; You must plant its roots in the fertile soil Of a thousand thoughtful deeds; And must keep it free of distrust and doubt, For distrust and doubt are weeds. ) • GT■ • ( CAN I STRAIGHTEN OUT MY ILLEGAL UNITED STATES ENTRY? Question: I arrived in the United States when I was 15 years old, approximately ten years ago, with an American passport, together with my father who also traveled on an American passport.

At the time I had some doubt as to my father's citizenship, but it did not appear to me proper to question it. Now my father has decided to tell the Immigration Service all about it and as a result I have been told that I am in the United States illegally. Is there any way in which I can straighten out this situation, inasmuch as the country of my birth is behind the Iron Courtain and I cannot return?

Answer: Fortunately for you there is such a way. Under a recent amendment of the Immigration and. Natioriality Act, a person who has been inspected by an immigration official may file an application for adjustment of status to permanent residence even under circumstances such as those described by you.

An adjustment of this type is within the discretion of the Attorney General. If you have a good record in the United States and there are no charges against you, it is possible your status will be adjusted. However, it would be well for you to consult a social agency or an attorney familiar with such matters. ) • J. • When you are worried about this month. or year, stop and think what your problems were 20 years ago — or will be 20 years from now.

DIVISION OF ESTATE EXI_:,AINED The death of an intestate person (one who has made no will) may give rise to many problems regarding distribution of his separate estate. In the preceding column we investigated the manner of dividing the community estate upon the death of a husband or wife. Now we shall see that, where separate property is involved, a completely different set of rules applies in determining heirship and apportioning the estate among the rightful claimants.

It may be well to recall that the separate estate of a husband or wife includes property owned by either before marriage, and that which is acquired afte• marriage by gift or inheritance. Any ether property acquired after marriage is presumed by law to be community property until the contrary is clearly proved.

Now, here is a general idea as to how your separate property will be divided if you do not make a will with contrary provisions prior to your death.

If your husband or wife survives and if, in addition, there are surviving children or descendants of previously deceased children, the children and their

descendants immediately obtain a full (fee) title in two-thirds of the real estate involved. The surviving spouse receives a life interest in the remaining one-third of the real . pro p erty, Which passes. on to the children and their descendants upon the death of the spouse.

The rule for distributing personal property — cash, stocks, bonds, furniture, or any other items not constituting real estate — is different. Here the surviving spouse gets full ownership of one - third, and the children and descendants inherit the balance.

Now suppose your husband or wife survives, but there are no surviving children or their descendants. In this case the surviving spouse inherits all of the personal property involved.

With regard to real estate, the survivor obtains full title to one-half, and the other half is divided between your mother and father, if both survive you.

If only one of them survives, he or she receives only half of this portiton; the other half (or one-fourth of the entire real estate) will be divided among your brothers and sisters (and their descendants) who survive. If there are no surviving brothers and sisters and their descendants, then the one surviving parent inherits the full one-half.

Where no parent survives, but there. are brothers and sisters and descendants, the full one-half is divided among these survivors.

And, if there are no parents or brothers and sisters (and their descendants) surviving, then the surviving husband or wife inherits all of the real estate. ((This newsfeature, prepared by the Slate Bar of Texas, is written to inform — not to advise. No person should ever apply or interpret any law without the aid of an attorney who is fully advised concerning the facts involved, because a slight variance in ;facts may change the application of the law). )• Crossing • the street; driving a car; contracting an illness. Those are the "chances" in every life time It is to be hoped they will never lead to injury or loss of life. But when they do, properly planned insurance at least lessens the chance of privation for the survivors. v• a 6 (-Some Congressmen promise to cut taxes to the bone — but all usually wind up by giving the taxpayers that treatment. ) 45, ° ( Each train traylelling through the Dover-beach area of England must be preceded by a man on foot carrying a red flag, and at not over one and onehalf miles per hour.
