K otoktim dolnich konCetin dochazi phi srcleeni slabosti, phi kreeovVeh lilach nebo za jinYch okolnosti, kdykoliv vazne ocltok lilni krve a lyinfy viii mizy sinerem nahoru k srdei. U srdeenieh vad je prieina otoku zhruba v neciostateenosti srclee, ktere nenasava krev s takovou silou, jak je theba. U zilnich mistech se zase uplatriuje na vzniku otoku jednak ochablost svaloviny steni eevni, jednak nedostateena neinnost Zilnich chlopni a rozSireni i prodlouleni zilnico reeiSte. Je jasne, Ce krev tehe lepe k srdci, je-li dolni koneetina ye zyYSene poloze ne9 je tomu phi stani nebo sedeni. Take phi chtzi a cvieeni jsou svalove stahy priznivejS'i pro odtok krve ne9 pri dlouhem stain na miste.

Ve -ttedu, 4. 1 ubna 1962

'e anierickSv (Info,maenii elanek) Kongres SpojenYch state j e organisovan nodel politickYch linii, take kaZda, jeho kornora senat i dam representanta je ovladana stranou, ktera je v ni zastoupena vetSim poetem Mena.

Oba ,domy ptitomneho 87ineho kongresu jsou ovladany demokraty. V obou domech voli kaZda strana sve atedniky, s jedinou vyjimkou mistopresidenta,o kterY je volen soueasne s presidentem a kterk se automatisky stava pfedsedou senatu. Hlasovati v senate maze jako jeho ptedseda jen za tech okolnosti, kdyZ vksledek hlasovani je nerozhodny.

Ptedsedou domu representantu je tak zvank "Speaker", volen stranou, ktera ma vetknu. Tento ptedseda poslanecke snemovny je hlavnim strategern sve strany v dome representanta, a jelikoZ neni nikdy volen do vYbort, milk se pine venovati einnosti, smetujici k prosazeni jejiho zakonodarneho programu. V ptipade smrti presidenta a mistopresidenta stal by se novkm presidentem ptedseda domu representanta.

Senat i dam representanta maji v zasedaci sini ptedaky vetSiny i menginy, vyvolene na, zaklade seniority a jejich yYznamu ve strane. (Ptedakern vetSiny v senate ye Mike Mansfield z Montany.

Ptedaky menkn v dneAnim kongrese jsou senator Everett M. Dirksen z Illinois a kongresnik Charles A. Halleck z Indiany).

Titu muk snaZi se usmerriovati hlasovani o ptedlohach, na kterYch ma jejich strana zajem. K ruce maji vedouci strany, jejichZ akolem je ptipominati elenam strany nutnost Presence, kdy se pfripravuje hlasovani o dalelite pro ni ptedloze.

JelikoZ pti kaZdem zasedani dostava kongres doslovne na tisice pfedloh, z nichZ mnohe jsou znaene sloZite, mush se ,kongres easteene spolehati na vYbory, na jejichZ pfipravne price, tekli bychom "dornaci atkoly". Senat ma v ptitomnosti 15 takovkchto vYberti, dtim representantu 19.

Dlouholeti elenove techto vkbora stdvaji se po Case specialisty ye syYch oborech. Jeden je tteba znalcem vojenskYch veci, jink znalcem dariovYm nebo zemedelskYm. Od Mena kongresu se neda eekati, ze se seznami do podrobnosti s kahlou ptedloknou osnovou, takZe o koneenem osudu ptedlohy pti hlasovani rozhoduje velmi east() nalez, podany o ni vkborem.

KaZda, ptedloha je nejprve poslana k posouzeni ptisluSnemu Zakonodarnemu vYboru. 0 tom, 'kterSr vkbor ji dostane,

V2ST/qtK—WEST,TE rozhoduje v dome representantu ptedseda a v senate president senatu, kterYin je mistopresident SpojenYch stata. Ptedseda vkboru rozhoduje obyeejne o tom, zda se ma o osnove rokovati.

KdyZ zakorrodarny vkbor ptedlohu schvali, zalek druhY krok na torn, vykali ptedloha ze senatu nebo z domu representanta. ze senatu, bude ihned predana k hlasovani v zasedaci sini, kde bude ptijata nebo zamitnuta. vSak z domu representanta, pteda ji zakonodarnk vYbor tak zvanemu Rules Committee, kterk ji mine odloZiti, zamitnouti nebo pkedati k hla.sovani. Tem& v 'kazetern ptipade maze senat i dam representanta'pied scbvalenim ptedlohu v zasedaci sini pozmeniti, ptipadne ji maze vratiti vkboru k dalkinu prostudcvani.

KdyZ, ptedloha projde jednou, komorou kongresu, je poslana do komory druhe, ktera ji projedna — ovS'em vlastni pfecilohu telro2 zneni. Stava se totiZ dosti Casto, ze tataZ ptedloha je soueasne pfeu °Perna domy kongresu, bud' ze si to pfeje vlada, nebo strana.

Po schvaleni ptedlohy domem presen• tanta i senatem dostava se ptedloha do rukou presidenta, kterY ji bud' pedepik nebo vetuje. Ma na toto rozhodnuti deset dna, nedele v to nepoeitaje. V phiPade presidentova veta mute se pfedloha stale jeSte stati zakonem, ale jen v takovein ptipade, ze oba domy kongresu schvali ji bez ptedchozi debaty dvema ttetinami Nepodnikne-li president do desiti dna po pkijeti ptedlohy ZadnYch krokt, stava se ptedloha automaticky zakonem.

Kdyby vSak behem zminenYch deseti dna kongres skoneil zasedani, zalek stale jeSte na presidentovi, co se s ptedlohou stone. President mute ji stale jeSte podense ti, v kteremZ ptipade se stava, konem, nebo nepodepsati a nechati ji tak proste propadnouti. Tento druhY zpdsob pasivniho veta oznaeuje se za "veto kapesni". ® A•( Udalesti ze sveta kratee Navgieva z !Conga Do Washingtonu ptiletel ptedseda vlady v Kongu Adoula.

Brother Alvin Nesuda read a letter from District Five wishing our Meeting success.

Spring Meeting Of District Three District Three held its Spring Meeting, at host Lodge No. 92 in Fort Worth, Texas, Sunday, March 25.

Lodge President brother Albert Kubala rapped for order at 10:45 a.m. to welcome the membership to Lodge Svaz Cechoslovanu, No. 92 and wished to all a very enjoyable time at the District Meeting.

He then turned the gavel over to District Three President, brother George Trojacek from Ennis Lodge No. 25'.

Brother Trojacek welcomed everyone present to the District Three Meeting; and then proceded to introduce the officers of the Third District: First VicePresident brother Ed. Mazanec, brother Alvin Nesuda, Second Vice-President; brother Ben Jarmo, the Treasurer, and our lovely Secretary Sister Dolfie Hrabina: Then the Supreme Lodge Officers, brothers Urbanovsky, Koliha and Zabeik and their ladies. A 'letter of regret from brother Vice-President Joe B. Hejny was read to the assembly. Brother Edward L. Marek, also away, was officiating at a funeral.

Speaking briefly brother Urbanovsky, stated that he and his wife were happy to be with us. He lauded all workers in our District on all levels, saying that it took all of us to achieve the success that we enjoy at the present time.

Brother Zabcik, our Supreme Lodge Financial Secretary spoke, saying that ire and his misus are always glad when they have a chance to come; that it is not always possible. "I enjoy your meetings, especially in this District you are one of the most active Districts that we have in our Order and it is interesting to see everyone work like you do hero.

I don't bring any figures to read to you," he stated, "you read them in the Vestnik. We are so proud of you and I am always happy to put your new members on our books."

Brother Joseph Koliha our Supreme Lodge Treasurer, spoke next, saying that he too was happy to be here at this

Brother Koliha then gave us a run down on figures of the loans with which he works. He broke them clown into the number of farm loans, city loans and other loans, saying that during 1961 not a single foreclosure was necessary: that this is a good record, and reflects careful management on the part of the Directors. "I want to wish each of you the best of luck and I know that we will have a wonderful meeting here today."

Brother Editor Hosek spoke next, thanking the Chair for the invitation to say a few words, saying that he too was happy to be ,here: that whenever he had anything on 'his mind he told it to Vestnik's readers each week. "I hope we will have a good meeting and I know that we will all enjoy it." Then speaking in Czech,, brother Hosek repeated the above statement, saying that at these meetings we always take home something good. "I know that with harmony, our District Three will be in the lead again in 1962.

Brother Robert Cervenka, District Three Director, also stated he was glad to see so many present which indicates

Brother Frank Spanhel of District Two was present and conveyed greetings from his district. "I know we have a good time ahead of us here: I will not take up too much of your time." He then invites the whole district to the District Two Meeting which will be held at Lodge Vysebrad southeast of the city of Taylor on April 29th, in the afternoon, meeting beginning at 1:30, p.m. and hopes to get through by 4:00 p.m. Music will be provided by the Vrazel's Polka Orchestra after the meeting.

Brother Arnold Vrla, spoke briefly saying he was happy to be present; happy to see so many of his organizers present and wished the. meeting lots of success. Brother Vrla then invited all the organizers to take a bow; then all the Youth, Leaders present to take a bow of recognition.

Sister Hrabina then read the minutes of the previous meeting, which were approved, followed by Roll Call of Lodges in District Three.

Brother Ben Jarma,, Treasurer gave his Treasurer's Report for District Three, and then for the District Three Youth Camp Fund'.

Then brother John Krizan Jr., president of the Youth Club of Cottonwood Lodge No. 6. presented the Camp Fund with $25 in cash from the Cottonwood Youth.

Brother Otto Hanus presented a small donation given him for the Fund, to swell the total.

Brother Raymond Irrbanovsky, Supreme Lodge Secretary then opened the "Old Business" discussion with the 65th Anniversary of our Order on July 1st, saying that we have only nineteen Char-. ter Members living; that the Supreme Lodge would be responsible in getting their pictures and write-up 'for the Anniversary issue; that Lodge Secretaries should check and write up histories on their old and worthy lodge workers to

Wednesday, April 4, 1962 go into this special issue. While this issue will not be a double feature, it will have a slick cover with an appropriate picture to commemorate, this occasion.

Brother Urbanovsky stated that the younegst living Charter Member of our Order is now 83 years old; that the ranks of the Charter Members is thinning rapidly.

Brother Hosek, Vestnik's Editor, stated "as you have heard from Brother Urbane ovsky, the Special Issue is to be publish= ed on the First of July so if you have any Charter members in your comma-, nity: know of any, we would like to get their pictures IN TIME because these take some time to have "cuts" made of the pictures. We want to put the issue out "ON TIME," otherwise it will lose its value. I will try to have this issue only for the Charter Members; worthy active warkers who contributed to the up-building of our SPJST. He then explained in Czech.

Brother Pokiadnik then summarizes and clarifies the points discussed: "I think so that it would be clear in the minds of members; the Supreme Lodge will have the responsibility of the 19 living Charter Members, seeing that they get their pictures — those are for your write up. Brother Frank Steiner talked on the point.

The point is: if there is any old member who deserves the honor of being in this special issue of Vestnik, who lives in your community, then you are respon sible for getting this information to the Editor.

If any Lodge in District Three( or all over the state, for that matter) know there is an old member who deserves this honor, then get the picture and a short write-up to the Editor. The Editor is to publicize this in the Vestnik.

Brother Pokiadnik then proceeded to give his report to the District on the Rest Home in Taylor of which he is one of the Directors. "The new addition is finished, we are now able to admit patients. As you saw in the Vestnik not too long ago, we have received several donations which will furnish some of these rooms in this new addition. We are also having a Plaque made which will encase the names of those who donate a smaller amount; their names will be placed on the Honor Roll for donating to this good cause. Brother Pokiadnik stated that any amount is most welcomed by the Rest Home Directors of this beautiful place.

Brother Steiner made a motion which was approved, that District Three furnish one of these rooms in the new addition of the Rest Home, with funds out of the District Treasury. District Three

VESTNiK— WEST, TEXAS will be "first" in furnishing a room in the Home.

Brother Mazanec going back to the Special Issue, discussed an "Ad" in the issue from the District. A committee will work this detail out.

Brother Fred Kveton and his lady from District Four, take a bow. Brother Kve ton is also a Director of the Rest Home.

Then the Chairman of the Entertainment Committee brother Murphee of Lodge No. 92 read greetings from Miss `SPJST who was unable to be present, being away in school.

The Kuban Brothers, John and Mark, popular in Fort Worth, having appeared in many programs in the city, gave us an English Number and two Czech. nomhers, which won them lots of enthusiastic ,applause. Lovely Sister Brenda Krivanek accompanied them for the Czech son9;se Then followed the Presentation of Fifty-Year Pins to eligible members. As 'brother Raymond Urbanovsky read off the names, the honorees were seated at 'a special table at the head of the Hall.

Only three were present and lovely sister La. Nell Ceska and sister Jerry Ann 'Urban pinned their emblem-pins onto their lapels. They are: Sisters Agnes Wrubel, of Lodge 92, and brother Frank Vodicka of Lodge 84 Dallas, and brother 'Stanley Hulovec of Lodge 130 Dallas.

Lodge No. 135 Marie Houdek.

The Kuban lads again et.\. e us some more of the endearing CzeL,h and English songs.

Brother Urbarm ysky, lands the pioneer 'members and their spirit, remembering that these Fifty-YeareMembers remember when horses and beggies were the only means of transportation to Lodge meetings, other than perhaps walking.

He -cited the hardships, the sacrifices which these members made to nurture the young lodges to growth and true brotherhood.

Brother Kona, also sputa' to the Dienears, saying that he hoped that those who- follow in our footsteps will remember these pioneers, as the greatest history not only in our state but the whole world for what these early members did.

Continuing in English; brother Koliha remarked that the Emblem presented the 50-year members in our Order has very little monetary Value but represents a spiritual worth far greater than any money can buy. He bade today's youngsters to remember and when they become leaders of this fraternal Order, to be sure and tell their yougsters of the :good work and hard lolier that these Charter Members put forth. in order that this great SPJST could grow.

Brother Trojacek, District . 'L'hree President thanked. the Supre I oe oflicers for the Presentation ceremonies of these, awards.

Then Brother Murphee presented the Choral Club of Lodge No. 84 Dallas, under the baton of brother Frank Henzen to present his 40-member Choir who sang some of our beleVe,d Czech and English songs. Brother Henzen pointed ' out that this group are not professional singers; that every member in his group is there because he or Si: , Ih:;s to sing. (_• zeeh Starting with the be.:.

"Kdo Domov .\luj" be Heo prosentcd "Nikdy ,se. Nevrati" "u!., ea 'Wadi" (Never the Days of e ar YMCA Return) whose poignant words brought tears to many an old face -- it was beautifully sung. This number was dedicated to the Fifty-Year Members present. "Zdenicka Ma" followed -- a lovely song pianoissimos and crescendoes and then another in a happier v'ebri: "Hrajta, 35. :coda. Tancuju," (Play, I love to dance) "Mosna ze zitra zde nebook" (Maybe t o Morrow -I shall not be here). Then they

Strana 14 gave us "God Bless America," like a prayer on all of our hearts , it was beautiful. The applause was spontaneous.

As we watched the singers, the two 'under-14-year-old children, Irene Vlk and brother Henzen's own son, Ronald; then the two janousek brothers standing side by side, our thoughts wandered to Ennis — their mother — too bad she couldn't have seen her two handsome sons singing these beautiful Czech songs — tall Otto and shorter Anton — these 40 people from all walks of life who sing from their hearts — they put out such beautiful music.

Brother Henzen thanked the assembly for the enthusiasm, saying that their being asked to be here was reward enough. Brother Bartek of Lodge No: 92, another lover of Czech song, and he knows them all, possibly, moved to contribute to the Choral Club group for music and other accessories. They gratefully declined, saying they do not need the money but the gesture was greatly appreciated, saying they feel honored.

Brother Tropacek thanked the group for their true fraternal spirit.

Brother Otto Hanus, Chairman of the District Three Youth Campsite, made his report on the recent offer of a tract of land to the Youth of District Three.

Through the generosity of brother and sister Joe and Mayme Holasek of West, Texas, ten acres from part of their Ranch is being given to the Youth for a Campsite, with privileges of using the entire ranch for horseback riding etc. A creek on the place has the possibilities of a dam which would impound as much acreage into a lake as desired.. There is plenty of water — not too deep to be found — so that a well could be made; oak trees, rocks, mixed loam; 3/8 miles or less from a hard surface road. As brother Hanus extolled the possibilities of the tract, the teen-agers present were not missing a word. There is some brush on the place; it is a stock farm; west of Hillsboro, below Lake Whitney; some 50 miles from Fort Worth, Waco, Ennis and Dallas.

Then another member of this Campsite Committee, Brother Alvin Nesuda, made his addendum to the Hanus report, recommending that it be accepted —with thanks.

Lovely sister Jerry Ann Urban moved that Brother and Sister Holasek be publicly and personally thanked from the District and from the Youth. "It is our dream come true," she stated," something we have worked toward for over two years."

Immediately plans were starte.d: one brother knew of this, another of that,

VESTNIK— WEST, TEXAS

'that could be had free, etc. the place was bubbling with excitement until sister Ceska pulled the all back saying "Let's get the deed first." So, a workpicnic is to be scheduled as soon as weather and ownership permits, the Dis_ trict Campsite Fund will carry the charges on the Transfer of the Deed to the Land, and at that time other plans will be announced.

Had brother and sister Holasek been present at this meeting, they would have gleaned the satisfaction of seeing the youngsters "all ears" about their Camp, and for once even the young at heart only, too, were in there planning.

As has so often been said: first you dream and then follow that dream through — to success.

The Youth requested all the Youth Clubs in District Three to sponsor a project to get the money coming in for the Campsite so that it can be develop.. ed. A committee is to work up a Name for the Campsite, bring it before the District at the next lVfeeting for selection and adoption.

As Sister Nesuda, our District Three Youth Leader stated: "It will not be a fancy place but we will start from scratch — even our SPJST started just like that -- it is a place of outdoors. It is a step forward."

Brother Pokladnik stressed the need for all the Lodges of our District to help and get behind the project so that the funds will grow.

Lodge 84 Youth Club are presenting a Play for this project's benefit — everybody's invited. Watch for announcement of date.

This issue of the Vestnik, should be saved for District Three's history.

Finally a motion to close the Campsite discussion was seconded on the floor and the Meeting again resumed its scheduled course.

Sister Wilma Nesuda, District Three Youth Director, called for the District Three Queen and her Duchess. They were not present not realizing that they might be called. They are Sister LindaMynar and Kathy Zapalac. At the bidding of sister Nesuda, all of the Youth Leaders of Lodges in our District stood up to take a bow.

Zephyr Spence of Lodge 66 was called to take a bow as High Point Winner of District Three. Taking the mike, lovely Teen-ager Zephyr Faye stated that she has been a SPJST member for the past ten years and proud of her Lodge No. 66. She thanked all who helped aer to win. She urged the Youth to attend all meetings, be active in all phases of Lodge work that "maybe you will win.'

Wednesday, April 4, 1962 Her Cash. Prize has been deposited for an education in the future.

The beloved Youth Leader of Lodge No. 84, Sister Bessie Petr, was the first Leader called to give her report on the activity of her Lodge's Youth. She stated that they have been busy as bees, that there is something "goin g on" in her Lodge at all times. She stated that in the District Three Princess contest which is going on at the present time, their lovely Carol Nemec will be their Princess from Lodge No. 84; that their Duchess has not as yet been selected. Sister Petr then introduced the winner from Lodge 84 Youth Club in the "Points System" contest which has been concluded just recently, none other than handsome Larry Petr with 290 points; Second Place — James Janousek, with 285 points and the third place was Noydia Rejcek with 275 points.

Sister Libbie Parma of Lodge Waco No. 66 was next to give her Report. "I have a lot to report but I wouldn't bother you with all of the Report. We have a wonderful Youth Group; it is large and divided into two groups. I am really proud of all of my members,. They have been active. Sister Parma then announced her "Points winners" — Zephyr Faye Spence with 480 points; Beverly Gaidusek with 410 points and La Nell Ceska and Sharon Engelke tied for third place with 410 points each.

Sister Parma then introduced her two Princesses sisters La Nell Ceska and Mary Sue Moore with Margaret Narovec and Frances Miller their Duchesses in the contest which is now in progress all over the state. We just , got through having a skatin,g party; wiener roast, and we are all proud of our Lodge No. 66 and also are happy to be here today."

Sister Martha Vrla from Lodge 130 in Dallas gave her report next. "Our youth have been bowling; dude ranching; hay riding. As yet, we have not chosen our Princess and Queen."

Sister Estelle Marcie from Lodge Jaromir 54 of West, followed with her report: "We have a lot of activity in our Lodge.

We entered a SPJST Float in the Rodeo Parade, visited the zoo, had a Valentine party plus a lot of other activities; this coming Sunday we will have a Style Show and anyone who can come down, we would love having you see our program."

Sister 1Vlarek stated that Rose Marie Marek as their First Place winner in the "Points System" contest; Delores Cepak was second place winner with Carolyn Cepak, Third place winner.

Sister Marek reports that lovely Patricia ,Sulak is their Lodge Princess and Janice Hanzlicek her Duchess in the

Wednesday, April 4, 1902 contest now in progress for District 'Queen at a Queen's coronation which will take place later in the District.

Sister Norma Pavelka, new Youth leader of the Elk No. 35 Youth. "My re port will not be very wonderful," she apologized. "Up to date I have eight girls and one boy but I am proud of these youngsters; they are interested in their Youth Club and participate in our activities. It has been decided that we would have a Ball Team this year. The first group will be from ages 7 to 10 and the second team of ages from 14 to 18 years old. They will all join our present Youth Club.

During the season," continued sister Pavelka, "if any Lodge wants to Play Ball, our Lodge's Youth Club is willing to play."

Sister Mary Renfro from Lodge 154, Fort Worth, Texas, gave her report next.

"We have a really nice Youth Club and I am very proud of them." She then gave her Youth Club's "Points" winners as follows: First Place, Donna Rose Steinman; Second Place, Jim Moson; and Third Place, Carol Mason. "The children have a good time; they have been playing volley ball. "I enjoyed coming to this Meeting," concluded Sister Renfro.

They have not as yet selected their Princess and Duchesses.

Sister Mary Laznovsky from Lodge 135 Ennis, was called but she had already left the Meeting.

Sister Mary Parpskar from host Lodge 92 was next. "I want to say that for the past two years I have enjoyed every moment of our Youth Club; our kiddoes have now graduated and are away in school. Our president has had to come in from college to preside at the meetings which worked a hardship on her." A`-, the present time there is no Youth Club activity in Lodge No. 92.

Sister Ruth Krizan, Cottonwood No. 6 was unable to attend due to the illness of her husband. Her report was given by brother John Krizan Jr. . "We, usually have our meeting after the adult meet ing, and afterwards play ball. When the weather is bad, we play ping-pang. In this next meeting we will select our Princess and Duchess." Sister Nesuda pointed out that John was First Place Winner in the "Points" contest, his sister Jeanette was Second; and Jerry Janecka third place winner. (Nice report, John Jr.) Sister Wilma Nesuda of Lodge No. 25 Ennis gave her re port. They too, have divided their youngsters into two groups.

"We skate the second and the fourth Sunday in the month and dance after the Club Meeting." Sister Nesuda stated

V tETNiX WEST, TEXAS

that she has had about 45 in attendance., The three ladies who are candidates for the Princess contest are: Patricia Ann Trojacek; Carol Ann Nesuda and Betty Jean Haskovec."

Speaking in her role of District Youth Director, sister Nesuda invited: "If there are any lodges who feel that they have enough youngesters to organize, I will be glad to help you when you are ready."

Sister Nesuda then launched into an explanation of the new "Merit System" which is effective for 1962, giving each individual a chance at "points" through the maintaining of a record of his or her activities. She pointed out the sections explaining what the Youth must do to accumulate "points" in Lodge work.

A discussion followed. Lovely Sister Jerry Ann Urban, Assistant Youth Leader to sister Bessie Petr of Lodge 84, spoke for organizing volley ball teams for the coming warm days, for competition with inter-Lodge teams.

Brother Pokladnik urged cooperation with Sister Nesuda in her plans already mapped out. Money was ten appropriated for the Youth Activity Day observance Which will be held in Ennis at Lodge 25, the 24th of June. Outdoor sports will be held if weather permits.

A discussion arose among the various Youth Leaders in our District as just how the last "Points" were made and by whom. Sister Nesuda stated that the only information she had on these Lodge winners was through the Vestnik; that perhaps not all of them were reported.

Sister Nesuda states that the children and their Youth Leaders know how and who earned their points.

Brother Pokladnik then stated that no body knows what to accept and not accept and that our brother J. B. Helny, under whose department this falls, should put this information in the Vestnik: the age and What he or she got points for, as it is the history which will be recorded in the Vestnik for coming years; will give each child for 1962 and will give suggestions for the future.

Sister Nesuda explained that this could be arranged, if brother Hosek has the support of all for the Vestnik. Also would he please express the Thanks of all the Youth of District Three to the Holaseks.

"Tell them (bro. and sis. Holasek) that.

WE ARE NOW GOING TO GET GOING." Pinchhitting for brother Joe B. Hejny our Supreme Lodge Secretary brother Raymond Urbanovsky made a presenta tion. "In the name of the. Supreme Lodge.

I want to present this trophy for being one of the District who won in this contest. District Three, District Four, and District Five were winners. This is pre-

Straus 15

sented not to you brother Vrla, but to your organizers," said brother Urbanovsky as he handed District Organizer Vrla the District Trophy.

Brother Arnold Vrla, accepted the beautiful and large trophy. "It has been said on one person can do it all; it takes the Supreme Lodge Officers, District Officers, Lodge Officers the Youth Leaders and Youth. and the splendid ooperation of the entire membership of District Three, so TO YOU," exclaimed brother Vrla, "this is yours! Thank you!"

Brother Vrla read the inscription: "District Three Award of Achievement; State Contest Winners 1961; Supreme Lodge SPJST." The day was drawing to a closeand there was yet much on the District Agenda to do, so brother Trojacek asked for sticking to, District Matters only, to speed up the business at hand and finish it.

Brother Vrla conveyed brother , Hejny's best wishes for success and regret at his not being present.

Brother Vrla then gave his report: "Most of my report has been in the Vestnik," he stated, "but I would like you to see the top organizers of last year and of course, I am proud of District Three.

We have had some wonderful workers: Sister Anna Milan, who has, the Number One Spot, took a bow.

Brother John Krizan, Lodge No. 6 Cottonwood, who wrote the most members in the entire state of Texas in 1961. His son John Jr. takes a bow for his father who was unable to be present due to illness.

Brother Raymond Volcik Lodge No. 6, took a bow, as did Emil Petr and Stanley Vrla, these were the top men and women. There a lot of organizers who made a good showing as listed in the Vestnik.

"I would like to express my thanks to each and everyone for the Supreme Lodge, the Youth Leaders, Organizers, local Lodge officers, District, and the entire membership for your splendid cooperation and if in 1962 we ALL work together, we will reach the top again."

Brother President Trojacek pressed on, calling on his Nominating Committee to make their recommendations of New District Officers for the coming year.

Consisting of brothers: Zicla, chairman, J. Milan, Zalman and (Krizan who was ill) they selected the following (however stating that nominations from the floor were permissible and welcomed) — President, Ed Mazanec from Lodge No. 66; First Vice-President, Alvin Nesuda, Lodge 25, Ennis; Second Vice-President, Ben Janne, of Lodge 84, Dallas.

For Secretary, Sister Emma Ceska of Lodge 66 Waco; for Treasurer, Frances

Strana Jurcik of Lodge Jaro 130 of Dallas, (•,vho was called home due to illness); Youth director, Sister Wilma Nesuda and Flac Bearer, John Krizan Jr. of Lodge No. 6.

Those assembled voted them in by acclamation. Congratulations!

Brother Josef Koliha, Jr. of the Supreme Lodge was selected from his Supreme Lodge officers present, to install the newly elected District officers, which he did.

Lodges 84 of Dalas and 66 of Waco, both extended invitations to their next Fall District Meeting in their beautiful lodge homes. By a close vote, Lodge 66 won. Thanks was expressed to both lodges for their kind invitation. Time and date fo our next District Throe Meeting will be announced in the Vestnik.

As can be seen, there was a lot of business transacted with several "Firsts" for the District; Campsite; Furnishing a Rest Home room; and the youngest District Officer in District history, Johnny Krizan Jr., is the 14-year-old Flag Bearer, and very proud of it.

This report didn't forget the Kitchen and the serving of some 500 members to a delicious noon meal. The new kitchen was manned by a staff of sisters of Lodge 92, who served the meal Production Line Style to get the !food on the ylates hot and in time so that the meeting could continue by 1:30. They have Chess big aircraft factories there in Fort Worth, you know, and our sisters have streamlined their operation of meal serving on those principals. Everyone was happy, hungry, and glad for the short visit with his or her neighbor while moving down the line to chow. The pastries and hot coffee, too, served in the morning to in-corning guests were manned by a crew of smiling and friendly sisters, and was monst appreciated by folks arriving, !for the morning threatened to be cold, however, it did clear up later.

Sincere thanks to Lodge 92 members for their friendly hospitality in their beautiful Hall; to all out-going District Officers for a job well and faithfully done. Thanks to those "hidden committeemen and committeewomen" who get things ready but are never seen or mentioned. You had the Hall beautifully decorated, flowers, spotless white linen. tables and chairs aligned and waiting for us, your beautiful SP,IST emblem on its stand on your stage, your music at noon —everything perfect and everyone said Thanks!

This report has had to be condensed in places due to space, and unrelated business.

VI S T K®- WEST, TEXAS Your Editor will publish the pictures taken at the meeting in the coming issues of the Vestnik. Look for them. e • It would not somehow be right if this report were to exclude brother and Sister Charles Hejny from our Grayson County Community. Their lodge No. 5 has not been, represented in our District Meeting for some time. Brother Hejny, one of our pioneer members now on a cane, came to the District Meeting to represent his Lodge, and enjoy the fellowship of old friends, to see how these "young ones" as our present day District Officers would be regarded by one of his venerable age, are handling this Order's business. We think he was pleased. The contributions of the Choral Club brought tears tohis eyes as it did to many much younger ones. The whole District is happy that you came, brother Hejny, and best regards to all in Grayson County. I think that Dallas 84 holds the attendance record. — It was a fine meeting!

Thanks to you all in District III. Your Editor ) • "

® An Tot her and Sister Oraanizers Again your Editor reassures you that he is always ready and willing to be of help to each of you.

He is ever mindful that you need some publicity in your work and he is ready to serve your interests in this respect, so, do not hesitate to call on him.

Your letters should be here by Friday, the latest, before your Vestnik is published.

The Vestnik will gladly publish announcements of family reunions, just give the date and place where the family reunion is to be held. This is an excellent opportunity for the Organizer to meet new prospects.

Don't neglect to work with the Youth where you have many prospects. Right now, they are in the midst of their Queen's Contests in each lodge and in each District. They will help you with prospects, for the needed "points" to win the coveted title of aueen.

Then there is the news of Mr. Stork's arrival, which should have you wending your way to the family to add to the congratulations and sign up a new member. These new arrivals will need monetary help more than ever before in the history of man, for with the arrival of new babies the world over, educational facilities will become more expensive than ever before. Assure him his education with a policy.

Keep your Lodge, Your District, informed of what's going on through your letters into your Vestnik. You are the HUB of our Order, our Lodges and our Districts, for after all, it's new insurance that keeps us growing, replenishing our losses in our membership and growing stronger, and insurance is what you sell,.

So, again, keep your membership informed and interested and they in turn will keep you informed of what is going on in your territory in the way of new business.

This is YOUR Vestnik, so keep it enjoyable.

Your Editor • --A 0 If you want your Lodge Youth to come into your Lodge and actively participate, you must give, them some consideration and pleasures in planning for your Lodge activities. Now is the time for you all to plan for your Lodge Easter Programs hi which not only the Youth but the whole membership will have pleasure.

Reports From Local Lodges

TO MR. AND MRS. JOS. F. HOLASEK of West, Texas From THIRD DISTRICT, S.P.J.S.T. Our deep and sincere thanks go to Brother and Sister Holasek for their generous donation of 10 acres of land to be used by the Youth of District Three, for all of their activities.

Thus a two-year dream has become a reality, rather suddenly. What seemed to be off in the distant future is now here, because of the generosity of a couple who felt the needs of our Youth were very important.

To Mr. and Mrs. Holasek go the thanks of the third District Youth, all of its members and officers, 1 May our Youth always be appreciative of your kind donation.

Secretary of District Three Dolfie Hrabina —.I • cf. •

Czechs Urged to S ipport Festival Czech people of Texas are being urged to get behind the, "Czech Festival" which is an annual affair held at the State Fair of Texas. It was explained that this is a chance for Czech people to "but their best foot forward" to demonstrate their talents.

Nick Morris, chairman of the Executive Committee, Czech Festival 1962 said, "In the past years it has been felt that our participation in this event has been confined altogether too much to our people in the North Texas area. Since it is an all-state function we would like to have as broad a participation from around the Lone Star State as possible."

P. Our term "Tip" came from the initials of three words — "To insure promptness." Nowadays, it is expected, promptness or otherwise.

Some of our Bell County ladies went on a tour of the Azalea Gardens at Tyler. I know that they were a beautiful sight to see for I saw them in Charleston, South Carolina, when they were in full bloom. Azaleas are the South Carolina State Flower and our state flower, the Bluebonnets are starting to, bloom too.

They are already beginning to look real pretty.

I would like to say here if any of you are planning ion a Family Reunion or other affairs. get in touch with Hall Manager, Brother Dan Hoelscher and make your date early so he can book you.

LODGE OSVETA NO. 38 KOVAR, TEXAS Dear Brothers and Sisters: I will try to scratch a few lines for you to read, to remember.

In our last meeting we decided to recite the Pledge to the Flag, all together, I think it will be nice if we do it in all, of our future meetings.

The minutes were read and approved as read.

In our last meeting we forgot to tell all of the sisters to come to our next meeting, so we could decide what will be served for lunch at the coming District Meeting which will be on the 6th of May. So, please sisters, do come to our next Lodge Meeting. Sister Mary Stepan suggests that we should have an Easter Egg Hunt, for those little tots. So, I think sisters, it would be nice to dye some eggs and bring some of them to our next meeting and bring your little tots so, that they can have some fun for they sure like to run and hunt eggs.

We didn't say anything about lunch either but I think we could have a little bite to eat and coffee at the. April ,'':eet:ing; that is April 8th,.

Eggs are cheap now, So let's make a little joy for our little friends.

Well, I had better end, with best wishes to you all, I am Your Reporter Lillie Evicic 4

LODGE 88 HOUSTON Dear Vestnik Readers: We are having some beautiful weather here in Houston. We do need some rain for our yards and our little back-yard gardens. This cool weather feels very comfortable.

With such pretty weather who wants to stay home? Like for instance sisters Delia Kadlecek, Evelyn ,Mikalas, Josephene Burl and Edith Pavlicek, who took their camera equipment and took picture slides of the beautiful blooming arches in River Oaks. Hope they were in color and that they will show them at the lodge.

The last dance was well attended. D?cipients of the door prizes were Harley Cox, Frances Olexa and Ed Kadlecek.

Henry Tannenberger and his orchestra furnished some good modern and old time music. It was nice to see so many of our friends and members come out and enjoy, the evening:. Brother and sister Rudy and Maxine Seicik and Terry,

brother and sister J. M. Skrabanek. the Henry Gerhart family, Frankie grid Gladys Sembera and family, Johnny Sindels and their party, Mr. and Mrs. Sven.

The Kitchen Committee sisters were on the job as usual serving, coffee and hamburgers. They were sisters Annie Vala, Mrs. Fusig and Mary Elzner.

Happy wedding anniversary wishes are going out to the Frank Olexas on their 40th anniversary. The Frank Bohacs on their 2-5th. In my last letter it read the Rices celebrated their 18th anniversary but should have read the 19th.

Best wishes to all. Some of the members of Lodge 88 enjoyed dancing to the music of William Hilsher and his R,ythm Kings at the Knights of Columbus Hall given by the Assumption Mothers' Club on Saturday, March 3. They all enjoyed the music very much. This same band is going to play for the Benefit Youth Dance on Saturday night April 7. Tickets are on sale now. You can obtain them from any one of the Youth Club members.

William is a member of our lodge and the son of brother and sister Alfred and Birdie Hilsher. He is attending Alexander Hamilton Jr. High. So come on out and help the Youth Club.

Sister Tillie Hehnoamp director of the Youth Club, is busy making preparations for another one of the fine Easter programs, which will be given by the members o f the Youth Club, She is so good at putting those programs together -- most of them are her own originals.

Several matters were

Wednesday, April 4, 1962 discussed and the most important order of business that was brought up was the election of a new secretary. Brother Jack Rice, who has been our secretary for about five years, has been transferred to Illinois to accept a better position. We are all sorry to see him leave as he has been a wonderful person to work with and was a very good secretary.

He had to leave immediately so a new secretary had to be elected at this time to take over the job. The new Secretary will be Brother Carl Zich and he will also still be an appraiser. His address is 3221 Lubboclk Ave. A minute of silence was observed for three of our members who passed away since our last meeting. The meeting WEIS adjourned at 4:15 after which a light supper was served to about two hundred people.

We all want to wish Broth:a' Rice good luck in his present position. His family will join him there later tins Smaract.

YOUTH CLUB

)r

atrana 21 1. In 1961, I attended every adult and youth club meeting at my lodge. I also attended meetings at other lodges and district meetings.

2. I participated in every contest offered by my lodge and every contest offered by the district. I was lucky and won some and lost in others, but I tried.

3. I participated in the. Princess Ball held at our lodge, and was crowned Duchess for 1961.

4. I was on the telephone committee for 1961, and enjoyed this job very much.

5. Each month I tried to have at least one letter, or more in the Vestnik. I enjoyed writing these letters and at the same time added points to illy credit.

6. Last, but the most IMPORTANT thing was my interest in what I was able to do for my lodge, being an active member. The best way to, earn points is to at•• tend meetings, so you will know , just what your lodge has to ofier, in order to earn points. If your lodge is like ours, we have something new to do every month, being active, you will have points earned before you know it. Work Hard and be Active, enjoy your meetings, and may your points add up to a huge • amount for 1962.

Before I close, I would like to Thank Lodge No. 92 Fort Worth for the . wonderful time I had at their lodge hail and for the delicious dinner they served us.

Fraternally yours, Zephyr Spence ) WACO LODGE NO. 66 Dear Readers, I do believe the District III meeting I attended at Lodge No. 92, was the most interesting meeting I have ever attended. I was proud I had a chance to speak to the body and express may feelings as a youth. I feel that some day we will have ,o Youth Camp to be very proud of, if we work together. In order to have anything worth , while you have to work for it, but I know we can do plenty of work, so that should be our least worry.

Lodge 92, your building impressed me very much. I just love the way you have your stage arranged. I do wish we at Lodge 66, had a stage like yours. What I liked best was the seperate dressing rooms, and the beautiful deep red velvet curtain. I hope some day we can add a stage like yours at bur hall.

The choir from Dallas was very good and I enjoyed listening to them sing the Czech songs, although I did not know what they were saying. The two boys who sang were also very good. The program was just what we needed to start the business session, off to a good start.

I would like to "Thank" Mrs. Nesuda for encouraging me to speak at our lodge

VESTNf.K—WEST,TEXAS

Strana 22 meetings. I am going to try to improve in my speeches as I go along, and hope some day I can get up in front of a. large body of people and make a speech as easy as some of the members did last Sunday, at the District III meeting.

Let's all come out and lend a helping hand, the weather shows a promise to be pretty and I know it will be fun working together.

All parents in our lodge are asked to encourage their children to represent their lodge by showing something of their talents.

Fifty Years of the Girl Scouts A remarkable Southern gentlewoman with a new idea helped to bring about a revolutionary change in the status of the American girl. Her name was Juliette Gordon Low. Her rdea was Girl Scouting, which she began in the United States on March 12, 1912, when she organized the first troop of Girl Scouts in her home town, Savannah, Georgia.

Fifty years have passed since that day.

The movement in this county has grown from one troop of 12 girls in one city to a total of almost three and one-half million members organized into 164000 'troops with 2,646,000 girls in every city and town in each of the 50 states and possessions of the United States — the largest organization serving girls in the free world. In a brief 50 years, some 18 and one-half million Americans have been members of Girl Scouts of the USA. It was daring, indeed, for a girl in 1912 to play a vigorous game of basketball, clad in middy and calf-length bloomers; to go hiking in the woods; to camp out under the stars; to sell "Liberty Bonds."

It is daring, today, for a group of girls to go into the wilderness, without adults, and to live for a week only on what they carry in their knap-sacks; to go off to Puerto Rico to work in camps for underprivileged children; to learn to man ships and to fly planes and to organize

libraries in communities where none existed before.

Girl Scouting was and is for all girls between the ages of 7 and 17. The only requirement for membership remains willingness to take the Girl Scout Promise: "On my honor, I will try to do my duty to God and my country, to help other people at all times, to obey the Girl Scout Laws."

The animating purpose of Girl Scouting was and is to help girls become happy, resourceful, creative citizens willing and able to serve others in their homes, their communities, their country and the world — and to achieve all this with a ninimum of adult supervision. in Girl Scouting, this has been standard practice for 50 years.
