"Ach, goteeku, to by bylo dlouhe vypraveni. ZlY jeho poruenik, Otta Braniborsky, chtel miti volnou ruku, aby mohl die libosti a proto kralevice odstranil. Tenkrate bylo v Oechach velmi zle.

"Ale, tatinku, co se pak stab s malkm Vaclavem?" fteditel se usmal. Ritteneina detska duse nemela dnes pro nic jineho suryslu, net pro osud maleho eeskeho prince.

Vtom veak jig Slavka pornesla svilj uctivk pozdrav a pani Helena obratila se k ni.

"Nevim, milostpani," rdela se Slavka.

Strana 10 DEAR "LET'S STUDY CZECH" STUDENTS So you think Czech is hard? Well, it seems that our English is as hard to students trying to learn it, as Czech is to you.

Recently a Miss Peterson wrote in the Christian Monitor of her plight in learning our language which I'm suoe you will appreciate. I give it to you in its entirety.

Of Rice and Mice Quote: Some years ago, after coming to the United States from what is now Communist Poland, I enrolled in one of the New York City night schools. Although I was able, at that time, to converse in several languages, English was not one of them. And what a time I had with this tongue! How inconsistent its grammer seemed to me!

Our class was an informal group of about 2O adult pupils, of varying ages and nationalities. The teacher was a charming young woman of around 35, with a remarkable capacity for understanding human nature. She was an enthusiastic person, and very conscientious, and we all loved her. She not only taught us to speak, read, and write English but also tried to instill in us a spirit of democracy and patriotism.

One evening we were assigned a composition; the subject was "A House Infested with Mice." After a considerable struggle with "house and houses" and "mouse and mice' I suddenly became poetic and produced what I thought was pretty sound advice for English lexicographers. Here's my masterpiece.

America is wonderful, And it's where I want to be; But when it comes to learning English — Well, the grammer puzzles me.

If a house is a house, and A mouse is a mouse.

And two of the fdrmer are houses, Then why, I ask you why, Can't two of the latter be mouses?

It would so much simpler be, And also so very nice If only the mice would mouses be, Or the houses could be hive!

You can imagine my embarrassment, when after handing the manuscript to the toadher she announced, "Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a 'Poet' in our midst Miss P. will yOu read your poem to the class, please?"

After that I was affectionately known to my classmates as "Miss Shakespeare."

So you see dear student, it's an universal problem, learning a new language, and posses many amusing sidelights.

The Editor's wife.

FROM THE EC Advantages of ire Laurance will help yon answer these questions: 1. With life insurance, will my family always be able to count on me no matter what 'happens?

Answer: With life insurance your family is protected 'from the start; for life insurance guarantees at the stroke of the pen, an amount of money far greater than most couples could save in many years.

2. will our children be able to go to college?

Answer — By figuring in advance what it will cost to give your children a college education, we can make sure through their life insurance that college expenses will be met.

3. Would my wife have enough to pay off the mortgage, if left on her own?

Answer -- With life insurance a man can safeguard the home his family loves by owning a policy which takes care of unpaid mortgage.

4. Do our plans allow for emergencies?

Answer -- You know in advance exactly how much money will be available in your life insurance at a given time, and you will be secure in this knowledge and prepared to face an emergency.

5. Will my wife and I be indebted in my later years?

Answer — A husband and wife can get more pleasure from their later years when they plan their life incurance to provide a steady income, guaranteed to last for both of their lifetimes. )•A•( The playful, middle-aged wolf sidled up to the brunette. "Where have you been all of my life?" he asked.

Coffee was served at tables by the lovely Teen-age club members, who greeted the guests and served the coffee. The Guest Book Registry was supervised by these wonderful young people.

Because the program was long, Lodge 84's president, brother Sid Pokladnik rapped .for order at 1:30 p.m. to begin the celebration of the fifty-second anniversary of this lodge.

Brother Pokladnik welcomed everyone to Pokrok No. 84, and before beginning introduction of guests, announced the sudden demise of one of their ;few remaining Charter Members, brother Johnn.

The Zastoupil's who recently observed their Sixtieth Anniversary which . was

vESTNIK— WEST, TEXAS covered by Brother Frank Steiner in the Vestnik, being members for 50 years of Pokrok 84, took a bow.

Brother Pokladnik admonished us all to honor these older members "who made all of this possible for us."

Then continuing, brother Pokladnik stated: "This lodge is very proud of its officers who at no time neglect their office; who deserve lots of credit for what is being done."

Brother Ben Jarma, who is first vicepresident, as well as spearhead in the, Softball Club which is bringing home many honors to their lodge and our SPJST. Brother Pokladnik then invites all of Pokrok's members to attend the next meeting where the Annual Initiation ceremony will be held for all members who became.brothers and sisters during the year, will be honored.

The Kitchen Committee receives recognition and praise for their efforts as does the Decorating Committee who prepared the Hall for this special occasion.

The Youth Leaders, Sisters Petr, Pokladnik, Urban, Ondrusek were applauded, but they were behind stake putting the Pro gram into swing.

The Guest Speaker, brother Edward L. Marek, President of our SPJST Supreme Lodge addressed the gathering.

Brother Mark thanked Pokrok for the honor of being its Guest Speaker, the hospitality, and brought "best wishes" from his fellow Supreme Lodge officers.

Speaking to those members who have been Lodge Members for 50 years or more, brother Marek, addressing them in Czech, said: To you who organized this lodge more than 50 years back, you pioneers who have built this for your chil-

Wednesday, February 28, 1962 dren, grandchildren; we today see your purpose, efforts which you had in those days. We are grateful and we thank you."

Brother March traced fraternalism from the middle ages, starting at Rome where meetings of people brought with these meetings bonds of friendship and understanding; then into the societies later in England, to the present time where these societies contribute fraternal freedom to the welfare of life and lovin g people. "So today, on this occasion we extend our hands in fellowship to those who are near us. Traditionally the American people live in that challenge for it is God given to men, who came to these shores to find it.

When we go back to the Good Book; the Second Commandment `Loge Thy Neighbor as Thyself," means many things. It means that we lend a helping hand like the Good Samaritan of Damascus; we comfort the widow, the dispairing; the orphans and widows and for the aged we provide. Fraternalism bas roots deep — man for man was created in the image of God and therefore, man has ever tried to imitate that creation; for work; to foster these idealisms in the future generations. It instills in your heart a closer association under fraternal bond.

"We in our SPJST Order have great respect as far as concerns to walk in the footsteps of the old Dads and Mothers, Granddads and Grandmothers who laid down the foundation in this work, when they bound themselves together in 1897.

When I say this fraternal Order, I do not exclude those who will follow in our [footsteps, as we are following in those before us. So that is the Commandment to man "Love Thy NeighbOr as Thyself."

Brother Marek explains the three-fold responsibility that every lod ge has to its future leaders. First, lead and help teach.

Righteousness — whatever we do, let it be right. Help when help is needed. It does not matter how trival or small it may look to us they need help, it is for us to give it to them. Therefore, on this happy occasion we are celebrating that which we have done and what we may give in the future.

Brother March touched upon the Fraternal Congress speakers of national prominence; who brought out that insurance in America is not the concern today for it is well regulated, operated, supervised and established in America, but for America's complacency at the helm of Freedom which our forefathers gave us, who evacuated across what was then a treacherous sea to establish Freedom, fight and preserve it; we seem to be letting it slowly slip away. Today we are bonding, building closer contact;

Wednesday, February 28, 1962 ready to discuss Freedom with any man; but above all we must defend that Freedom. The stars and stripes that flow over the ramparts — they represent free men and free women who are second to none.

As one eminet speaker stated," continued Brother Marek, "as long as we have freedom loving Ifraternals in this nation, that this nation will not have to beware of remaining a Free Nation."

Brother Marek concluded with again thanking the Lodge for their hospitality and a "Happy Anniversary."

Brother Pokladnik addressing the Older membership in Czech and then English stated: "We officers of Lodge 84 are proud that we can be officers of this Lod ge, trained by our cider members. We are glad to be officers in this work which you have done in the past years, We solemnly promise that we will do our utmost; to teach our young generation to be future leaders as it has been done in the past.

Brother Pokladnik thanked Sister Annie Talasek and her group on the Kitchen Committee for handling the meal so well for the occasion.

It was a truly patriotic and commorative program which took lots of work, thought and preparation plus the cooperation of the respective parents.

Sister Bessie Petr presented her Assistant Youth Leaders, who now took a curtain call, and in which she explained just how much a program entailed.

To Pokrok 84 of Dallas, Happy Anniversary from the whole brotherhood and many, many happy returns of this occasion.

All Czechs Like to Sing To the members of the Choral Club who gave such a wonderful rendition of our beloved Czech songs, as well as our English songs goes our thanks.

They, these members, represent all ages of individuals, who banded to gether because they loved to sing and wished to add• their bit to perpetuate the Czech songs so loved by their parents and grandparents. Being fortunate enough to still handle the Czech language fluently, this was their opportunity to give their hearers much pleasure of their songs.

To give Vestnik's readers some idea of the scope of ages represented, those of you who know many of the Callas Czeoh residents will marvel at their abilities, under the patient and able hands of brother Frank Henzen, who himself is gifted with a beautiful voice.

They are as follows: Brother or sister, as the case may be — Julius Jurcik, Bill Gaiser, Ben Jarma, Jody Rejcek, J. W. Hackworth, Leonard J. Baleja, Jerry 1VIanak, Josef Kutil, Emil Petr, Raymond Rejcek, Nancy Rejcek, Fay Rejcek, Genora Rejcek, Annie Janousek, Rudy Galsor, Annie Steiner, Liddie Pavelka, Annie Talasek, Joeann Manak, Mary Fitzhugh, Ruth Chmelar (the able pianist) John Baleja, V. Kartous, Jim Pavelka, V. Fridrich, Emil Chmelar, Alvin J. Hamusek, Otto Janousek, Joe R. Vlk, Frank Vodicka, Anna Jurcik, Irene Vlk, Frances Baleja, Lillie Jarma, Ellie I'redrich, Lillian Hamusek, Rose Hackworth and Mildred Baleja, and of course Frank Hansen.

For their happy songs, the Veterans Administration gave them a 52-star American Flag which bad flown over the White House at Washington as a token of appreciation for their singing to the Veterans in' one of Dallas' hospitals. They are very proud of this flag. It was displayed on their 52nd Anniversary. Congratulations. ) • ets

Mr. Derldvinski. Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to join my colleagues this afternoon in commemorating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the first sokol Educational and Physical Cultural Organization in Prague, Czechoslovakia, on February 16, 1862. This organization, which was to have a profound effect on history, was organized by a group of public-spirited men to whom liberty and democracy were a Cherished ideal. These men, well versed in the history and philosophy of the past, wanted freedom and liberty for their people. They realized that only a nation which is willing to Prepare for and retain independence must maintain it by constant vigilance.

They stressed, realized and fought for the development of the entire individual —physical, mental, moral, and spiritual.

The founders of this organization created a terminology for calisthenics, apparatus exercises, and games that is so precise that until thousands of miles apart can practice the assigned drills, then meet at the great.Sokol exhibitions and after only one general rehearsal, perform as if they had trained together for months.

The first Sokol unit in the United States was organized in St. Louis in 1865; and within a few years units were organized in Chicago, New York, Milwaukee, and other cities in this country. Today, they reach from coast to coast — from Canada to Mexico, and there are also Sokol units throughout the world — all dedicated to freedom and liberty.

Their loyalty and ability to serve is proverbial. In every war in which this country has been involved, Sokol gymnasiums have become bare of their men's and junior classes. Within the last few years, units have been built new or expanded their old gymnasiums in Balitimore, Cleveland and other cities. Many more are planning new improved facilities in .dozens of localities. They support their own gymnasiums, community centers and children's camps. They have trained and given outstanding coaches and leaders to colleges, high schools an,d playgrounds by the hundreds. Now, on the threshold of their own centennial, they are intensifying their efforts to bring more of their fellow citizens into their active life.

The Sokols are respected in every land that is free. They are hated and feared by very form of dictatorship. They were the first organizations to be dissolved

by the Nazi and. Communists wherever these usurp power. The Sokol leaders were the first to be imprisoned and liquidated. The Second World War saw 90 per cent of the Sokol leaders liquidated in Czechoslovakia, Poland, Austria, Yugoslavia and Bulgaria. The few that were left have found a similar fate at the hands of the Communists. The great mass of the former powerful Sokol organizations in Europe are far from being exterminated or competely dOcile.

The great spirit of freedom, liberty and human justice instilled in them by courageous men and women for almost a century is still very much alive and is transferred to each new group of children: We know that those who have once known freedom and liberty as we know it will never forget it. , These Sokol trained people have faith in the inexorable destiny of mankind.

The Sokols in America have produced their own great leaders and thinkers.

Men and women in all walks of life have felt that their greatest contribution to this great land would be to devotedly serve in the Sokol ranks, to constantly train the young in that physical, mental moral and spiritual strength that is the bulwark of a nation. )

Wednesday, February 28, 1962 At the time I had some doubt as to my father's citizenship, but it did not appear o 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 Courtai-n and I cannot return?

Answer: Fortunately for you there is such a way. Under a recent amendment of the Immigration and Nationality Act, a person who has been inspected by an Timigration 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.

4„ ) INFORMATION SOUGHT ON FOREIGN LANGUAGE USAGE

Are you concerned with teaching, using or preserving the non-English languages brought to this country by immigrants?

If so, you may have received, or will be interested in a questionnaire being sent out by the Language Resources Project.

The Language Resources Project is conducting a nationwide study — the first of its kind -- under the sponsorship of the United States Office of education to find out exactly what American nationality groups are doing to teach and preserve their ancestral languages. If you received a questionnaire, be sure to complete and return it. If you are interested in participating in this important project, write to Language Resources Project, 111 West 57 Street, New York 19, N.Y. for a copy of the questionnaire.

Now that the spring weather is with us, we will all be getting the garden fever. I, myself, do not care too much for garden work. Maybe my better half will do it for me. Now I am down in the dumps with a sore throat and a cold so I cannot do too much outside work.

Then, too, we are having tests in school so I am pretty busy making tests and checking papers. My husband always tells me to give all of them a hundred and not bother checking them. It would be wonderful if we could do it that way.

I'm sure the children would not mind.

Next month our queen contest will commence. I am, hoping that our organizers gave it some thought. Come to the meeting we will discuss this further.

I hope that we will have a long list of candidates. There are so many lovely girls in our lodge but they do not want to LODGE NO. 26 SKIDMORE participate. No. one wants to be a queen.

The home lodge is proud of you for working so' 'hard.

I hope everyone keeps up the good Work and do remember that this week is choral practice.

March 2nd — bring your friends and good voices.

Your Secretary Dorothy Rejcek ) 4. • ( WEST, TEXAS Dear Girls: The warm weather has brought out the plum and peach blossoms almost overnight. With the daffodils and jonquils in their bright yellow, the blooming fruit trees have also brought the song of the birds and other heralds of spring. However, in the hack of our minds we wonder if there is any more really cold weather due us this early spring, which would cut our fruit crop by freezing the blossoms from which the fruit forms.

Anyway, here around West, the warm sunny weather 'has brought out the gardners. Some cleaning up old flower beds, spading the beds, tackling the sprouting weeds in the lawn before they take over ahead of the bermuda grass which is still sleeping; and some of the ,gardners have already planted onion sets, cabbage sets and potatoes, of which our West stores are full at the present time.

Once the garcle,n beckons, our homemakers will quickly finish and put away

VEST K WEST, TEXAS the quilt frames and devote their time to the outside.

This is also the time of year when all of the slumbering muscles in one's body will protest so much activity, and everyone will be muscle sore for a while until the lazy muscles get used to being used.

But it will be a wonderful time of the year, everything will start awakening and growing. Transplanting, rooting and dividing flower clumbs is in process now.

Shortly, too, the dirt gardners here in West and all over Texas for that matter, will be following down promises of slips and starts of flowers which graced our gardens last fall. The Chrysanthemums, Shasts daisies, gerahimums etc. all will 'be ready for new spots in our gardens, and there will be a little tug of consciousness at throwing away surplus plants so that room could be had for new varieties introduced by our busy nurserymen; especially the gorgeous roses which are being introduced makes one want to grow roses exclusively.

Here's wishing you all much happiness in your' gardens, don't forget the lineament for those sore muscles which will result from your first enthusiasm. As promised you, before, if this gets space in your Vestnik, I want to give You a Liver recipe, which you may try on your family.

Liver is rich in protein and uncomplicated by excess fat. Liver is a real blood regenerator containing the important mineral iron, with a trace of copper in the organized form most easily used by the body. Liver is rich in vitamin A and J; is a 'good source of vitamins B and C and contains some vitamin D for good measure. Liver is the only meat containing glycogen, a body sugar, and an excellent energy food. There is no waste in liver and it shrinks very little unless overcooked. One pound, sliced, will easily serve four.

Flavor in liver varies slightly. Calf's and sheep's liver is exceedingly mild, very tender. Pork liver is darker, with good flavor. All liver, including furred game liver, is tender and may be prepared in approximately the same manner, but slow cooking is needed.

All kinds of liver, when ground or chopped, may be used in stuffings, loaves, hash, sandwich fillings and similar combinations.

If liver is to be cooked in the piece, it should be washed thoroughly but never soaked in water. If roasted, strips of bacon or salt pork should be placed over the top, since in itself it contains little fat. If liver is to be braised in one piece, peel off the outside membrane after first washing quickly.

When liver is to be ground, it may be

Stana 23 covered with boiling water, then simered 3 - 4 minutes to facilitate grinding.

In the following recipes, beef, calf's lamb or pork liver may be used.

Raked Liver and Onions DelIVIonico Peel and cut two large Bermuda onions into thin slices; arrange them flat in a generously greased baking dish. Melt three tablespoons of butter in 1/3 cup of hot water and pour over the onion; cover and bake in a moderate over (350 degrees F.) for 30 minutes; or until the onions can be pierced with a knife or tines of a fork, turning them once with a spatula, and taking care to keep them in shape. Remove the skin and tubes from six slices of liver, dredge with seasoned flour; arrange over onion, add one large bay leaf, one sprig of thyme, or a pinch of dried thyme, eight sprigs of parsley (all tied up together with thread, dot with butter (about two tablespoons) and cover. Bake in a 'moderate oven (350 degrees F.) for about 25 to 30 minutes; uncover and continue baking until liver is brown. Remove the bayleaf-parsley bouquet. Serve from the baking dish with creamed, hash, parsley potatoes.

"Dan't overcook" is the primary rule in liver cookery. High heat or long cooking toughen it. The flavor of pork of mature beef liver will be more delicate if braised with vele,gatables.

Liver Creole Cut one-and-one-half pounds liver in to six thin slices; remove skin, veins and membranes. Wash quickly in cold water.

Drain, dry well. Roll in seasoned flower and saute in a casserole in hot lard, bacon of ham drippings until brown on all sides. Then stir in a cup of thinly sliced onions, rings separated, a cup of thinly sliced green pepper, the white seeds and white ribs carefully removed; a cup of thinly sliced mushrooms, a No. 2 can of tomatoes; a fourth cup cooked and chopped lean ham; one clove of garlic; a bouquet made up of large bay leaf, two sprigs of marporam (if lacking use dill) a sprig of thyme and seven or eight sprigs of parsley tied with white thread together. Salt to taste and add ten peppercorns, gently bruised, and pour over all one cup of dry white wine. Cover tightly, bake in moderate oven (350-375 degrees F.) for an hour without disturbing. Then, discard bouquet, taste for seasoning and when ready to serve, stir in three tablespoons of good sherry wine.

Doesn't this sound good served with rice.

For a quickie: Liver Fines Herbes Have six slices of liver, preferably calf's, cut a quarter-inch thick. Wipe with a damp cloth, dip in milk, then roll in seasoned flour and. cook in a saute pan in three tablespoons of but-

Strana 24 ter, over a gentle flame, until 'nice browned on both, sides. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange liver on a hot serving platter and pour over it the following sauce. Heat in a clean frying pan two tablespoons of sweet butter; stir in a teaspoon each of chopped tarragon, parsley and juice of half lemon.

Blend well, then stir in a teaspoon of very finely chopped shallots and as much and pour very hot over the liver. Garnish of chervil if available. Cook , helf a minute with twelve strips of bacon broiled, parsley or watercrest and, if you wish, small triangles of bread fried in butter.

Well, this will give you something to try. I hope it will add variety to your family's menu.

Until next time, here's wishing you all much health, and happiness in your kitchens and gardens.

Sports Column Game Commission Will Step Up Quail Production Austin — The Texas Game and Fish Commission has voted to step up production at the State Quail Farm at Tyler which has distributed some 285,000 birds throughout the state in the past six years, and which boasts the world's highets quail egg producer -- little Myrtle. who laid 353 eggs in 1960.

Most of the pen-raised game birds are sold to land owners for 50 cents each, but with the increased production, the commission is planning on distributing large numbers without charge in coastal areas where the natural quail population was wiped out by Hurricane Carla.

There seems to be a difference of opinion between the Farm's superintendent, George C. Stodghill, and members of the commission as to the capacity of the hatchery. In a recent report on the Farm, Stodghill said:

Wednesday, February 28, 1962 "With the addition of about two acres of outside quail conditioning pens, this 'quail farm has, in my opinion, an annual potential production capacity of 100,000 quail."

A recent commission committee report prepared by members W. O. Reed, Carl L. DuPuy and, Howard Carney stated: The quail hatchery at Tyler has a capacity of about 200,000 quail per year, and the commission could instruct the operator of the hatChery to raise any number of quail that they desired each year."

"Of course," the committee continued, "the cost of quail is much more than the selling price, and it is our belief and our recommendantion that the quail should be given away under certain rules and conditions prescribed by the commission.

"We think the quail ought to be placed where there is plenty of feed, and upon the recommendation of the 4-H clubs, the county agents together with the local game wardens in the area. We think that by giving these birds to the ones who will take care of them and raise feed, we -can greatly increase the number of quail in the State of Texas and can produce better hunting conditions for everyone."

The committee concluded that while the quail hatchery will never be a money making project, it will produce better hunting for the sportsmen, and it is our sincere belief that the quail hatchery will certainly help the quail ?hunters of Texas and will give them much better and more birds to shoot."

The estimated net program cost, not including game warden expense, for 1961 was $36,584. There was a total of some 36,000 quail released during the year, for an average cost of $1 per quail. This year's cost per bird was considerably higher than usual because of the 'high mortality rate in the 'hatchery due to the outbreak of disease. ) e •T• • ( Mope: "Today is my brother's birthday."

It's the _Law in

TEXAS

TIPS ON TAXES, The preparation of income tax returns requires that you do a little thinking, a little reading of rules, and a. little searching for the books and records you should have been keeping during the taxable year. This is the first in a series of articles designed to assist you in accomplishing your task.

Generally, you must file an income tax return if you receive gross income of $600 or more during a calendar year. However, if you have reached. 65 years-of-age by the end of the calendar year for which you are filing your return, you need not file a return unless you received over $1,200 in gross income. These rules apply whether you are married or single, a minor or an adult.

Gross income refers to all amounts which you receive from work youperform and also includes, income and profits which you receive from the investment and sale of property or savings.

Income from savings includes interest credited to your savings account, whether or not you withdraw it. Gross income does not include amounts received by you as Social Security or Railroad Retirement pension benefits, gifts, inheritances or workmen's compensation benefits.

The specific form you use to submit your return is a matter of personal choice with you based upon the type of income you have, the type of exclusions you claim, and the amount of deductible expenditures you have incurred.

This year there are only two income tax forms available, the 1040 - and the 1040A. Form 1040A, the "punch card" form, is by far the simpler of the two.

However, it may only be used if your income was less than $10,000 and consisted entirely of wages reported on your withholding statement (Form W-2) and not more than $200 total of dividends, interest, and other wages not subject to withholding. A husband and wife may file a joint return on Form 1940/1 if their combined incomes do not exceed these limits. Form 10410A also may not be used if you itemize deductions, claim a dividend received credit or a retirement income credit or claim an exclusion for "sick pay."

Strana 27

V P. $TNIK — WEST, TEXAS Form 1040 has been revised, this year, and the old 1040W has been eliminated.

The new form has only two pages, similar to pages 1 and 2 of the old Form 1040. A new separate Schedule B. replaces the items (except the summary of capital gains and losses) which , !formerly appeared on pages 3 and 4 of the old form. If your income is only from salary and wages and not more than $200 of dividends and interest, you , need only file pages 1 and 2.

The appropriate separate Schedule B (Supplemental Schedule of Income and Credits), C (Profits or Loss 'from Business or Profession), D (Gains and Losses from Sales or Exchanges of Property) or F (Schedule of Farm Income and Expenses) should be used if your income is not all of the type described.

Our tax laws are self-assessing in nature. This means that you, as a taxpayer, have a duty and obligation to report the 'facts and circumstances surrounding your receipt of income. The majority of simple tax returns can best and most properly be prepared by you, the taxpayer, after studying the instruction booklets available to you.

The Internal Revenue Service also makes available a booklet entitled "Your Federal Income Tax" to help you understand more complicated problems and more adequately submit the required information. Any problems Which you might encounter should properly be referred to the various offices of the Internal Revenue Service or your lawyer for advice.

(This newsfeature, prepared by the State Bar or 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). ) THE FEDERAL DEBT GOES UP, AND SO WILL THE LIMITS What would the Secretary of the Treasury do if the government debt exceeded the limit set by Congress?

That question was once asked of former Treasury Secretary George Humphrey by Sen. Harry F. Byrd (D. Va.) an advocate of strict — and lower — debt ceilings.

Mr. Hum phrey's answer: "The first thing I would do, senator, would be to I stop paying your salary." in practice, of course, the Federal debt does not exceed the ceiling, because every time it comes close, the Administration, whether Democrat or Republican, goes to Congress to get the ceiling raised.

It happened again this year. With the debt nearing the current $298 billion limit, the House Ways and Means Committee approved an Administration request for a $2 billion increase in the ceiling, to $300 billion. Final congressional approval is expected before March 1. But the Administration wants another $8 billion increase by June 30, and here • Senator Byrd and other fiscal conservatives in Congress are likely to ask their pointed question again.

What if the debt did pierce the ceiling?

Legal authorities in the Treasury say the matter would become highly personal for the Secretary of the Treasury. Any securities sold in excess of the limit would then be his personal obligations, not those of the government. ) ° /To, • 0 Phonics is what teaches kids to spell, even if it isn't. ) ° cle • ( One good way to reduce is to go easy on meals, 'between snacks.

Typhoid Was Once Ravaging Disease There was a time in Texas when one of the ravaging diseases was tpyhoid fever. Whole communities were struck and many victims died.

With the advent of chlorination for public water supplies, increased education efforts on the construction of private wells and water supplies plus modern epidemiological techniques, typhoid fever has steadily declined.

However, 1961 saw a slight rise over the previous year according to the weekly Texas Morbidity distributed by the Texas State Department of Health.

The number of typhoid fever cases last year rose eight per cent over 1060 — from 78 reported cases to 84.

Deaths from typhoid fever run lower than any other disease except typhus and malaria which are no longer public health problems in Texas.

Morbidity figures are not yet complete for 1961, however, there were four deaths during each of the three previous years.

(Totals of statistical figures on deaths usually take several months because of the thousands or records that must be scanned before accurate figures may be compiled).

Typhoid fever is still endemic to some rural areas of the United States, but in Texas cases are usually sporadic, with an occasional small cluster traceable to a single source or carrier.

Transmission can be by direct or indirect contact with a patient or carrier.

Ingestion of contaminated food and water can spread the typhoid organism over a wide area. Contamination is often spread from the hands of a carrier or missed case.

The administration of typhoid vaccine to persons subject to unusual exposure through occupation or travel, those living in areas of high endemic incidence, and institutional populations in which maintenance of sanitation is difficult, is generally recommended.

The discovery and supervision of tyrbald carriers is still an important part in the control of the disease. Certain occupations are restricted until laboratory tests demonstrate the carrier to be noninfectious.

Lon. On February 27; 1807 — 155 years ago-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, -American poet, was born at Portland, Maine. A professor of modern languages at Bowdamn College, lie became a most popular poet of his time with the publication, in 1839, of a collection of verse. "Voices of the Night," containing "The Psalm of Life" and "Excelsior" ---- two poems whicn are still in most anthologies of American 'verse.. M. a 11 y of Longfeilows ballads popularized American legends. For example, his "Courtship of Miles Standish," a love story of the Pilgrim Fathers; "The Ride of Paul, Revere," the - story of how early American patriots were warned of approaening BritiSh forces; "Hiawatha," an Indian legend; and "Evangeline," a tale of Trench Canadians expelled by the British to Louisiana.

In a moment the doctor appeared and asked if the man had a screwdriver.

Puzzled, but anxious to be of help he quickly brought the doctor the screwdriver.

A moment later the doctor reappeared at the door and asked "do you have pliers?"

Now the husband was really worried, but he got the pliers.

A few seconds passed and the doctor again appeared. "May I have a hacksaw?" he asked.

That was too much! "What is wrong with my wife," cried the husband, "what are you doing to her?"

"I haven't done a thing to your wife," the doctor replied, "I'm just trying to get my bag open!"
