District Two Announcement

Wednesday, May 23, 1962

KOVAR LODGE HOSTS DIST I MEET Brother Urbanovsky addressed the honorees in Czech, explaining that other officers of the Supreme Lodge could not be here today, that they were at: tending another District Meeting, and organizing a new Youth Club at the Elk Lodge in District Three; brother Kacir our attorney was attending the Annual Mayfete at Lodge Praha No. 29 in Taylor, Texas; that they were called to four different places; that is why they could not be here 100- per cent.

Brother Urbanovsky explained to them the difference in the way death claims are paid today and that of yesteryear where "assessments" were levied against members to cover Death Claims, whereas now our "reserve" serves this Death Claims purpose. He congratulated the honorees for then work with the youth and the property they helped accumulate for the Order, wishing that each one of them live among us for a long time to come.

Brother Urbanovsky then announced that the members whose names were called U at day and were not,present should call for their pins at then respective lodges and he asked that those nembers present from called lodes, please take the pins back with them for their Fifty-Year Members.

Brother Jakubik, District One President, then too, congratulated the honorees.

Then followed the Election of District Officers for the coming year 1962-63.

Brother Ernest Jakubik, was re-elected President of District One. Brother John Srubar, was elected Vice esident Brother J. J. Krenek as elected Secre tary-Treasurer Sister Lillie Ma,tejka, was re-elected District One Youth Director.

Brother Vaclav Barina, President of host Lodge Kovar, then installed the new officers.

The place and time for the Fall Meeting for District One is to be announced in the Vestnik, just as soon as the new officers have made the plans.

Brother Zabcik pointed out that our Meetings should not conflict with

VESTNIK— WEST, TEXAS

Strana 13

the Czech Day which is statewide scope and is held during the Month of October Fair of Texas, in Dallas, at the , Texas.

Then an invitation was extended for speakers for a few minutes.

Brother Urbanovsky, who appreciates the hospitality and opportunity to be present, and complimented Brother Barina for the wonderful work in (he Organizational field. "He has pulled District One over the top last year; he is well on the way again; however, he could not do it himself, he has the help of all of his organizers." Then all organizers present were asked to take a bow.

"I know that they cannot all be here; I am sure they have other work today; but they are the ones who are carrying the work forward; we must go on with our work; we cannot be, idle. I want to thank Sister Matejka the Youth Director for the work that she is doing. If we don't bring the youth to the meeting, we will not progress. You can look at any lodge that has active Youth Clubs; they are the ones who are progressing most and have the most active YOuth Clubs.

I would urge that the Lodges contribute to then Youth Fund in the District (5c per member), he explained that it is tlie custom in some Districts to send out

letters asking that the lodges give the five cents per year per member for this Youth work. In that way they (districts) are able to do something for their youth. The same way with the organizational work — before our organizers got started we were going down; we lost some 265 members (through death) so the officers said we had to do something, so until that time those who wanted to come in came in through the membership; that was the only way to solicit membership, but now we have started paying commissions to our organizers and it has brought results.

You have to have active organizers, otherwise we are stagnant and not going forward. We older ones are assured that our policies';Adll be paid off (at death) but the younger ones coming — we must see that their policies will be paid out in full to their loved ones. I wish for the hest and hope that I shall be able to be with you in the fall again."

Brother Zabcik spoke next. "It is a Pl easure to my wife and me to be with you; it is our first time to be out and we really, enjoy seeing all of you. In most of our work — it is all combined in one -- whatever figures we have, we always repeat them but since you have not had the last financial statement you will see that we have quite a lot of new

ana, mortgage loans; and of course, this goes to show you that we do have the experience; we paid out a lot of annuity maturities as well as death claims that is the reason we have so much "reserve" to cover this. There are quite a number of you !here who 'have been here a long time in tnis fraternal work in District One. You have Seven Charter ushers out of the Eighteen in the st• We will have a Special Issue of the Vestnik — brother Hosek. will explain that."

"Broth , er fiejny asked me to bring aqt some stickers for your car showing you are SR ST members. I would also like to pass cut these Dun's Reports showing how our SRIST compares against 25 other companies. It shows you that we are not a small outfit. I would also like to compliment Sister Matejka on her wonderful job with the youth."

Invitation was extended to District One to attend the District Two Camp Tahuaya meeting sometime in August.

It is the Boy Scout Camp near Belton — it is really wonderful and we will announce the time in the Vestnik — sometime in August. We agreed that we would have a basket lunch spread. We will have a short meeting and the rest of it will be an afternoon for the young folks. I wish you all a lot of luck and happiness."

Brother Tohn Kubena, District One Director, stated that it was "wonderful to be. 1.-?,ere and see so many faces I have personally known for a number of year; to see so many of the members who have been in this organization so long. "He stated that our fraternal order is cherished and enjoyed by so many especially, we Citizens.

"I look at this hall and recall the ,SP 5 fl'.i' Conventions which we have had in Halls not nearly as large as this. I know that you are proud of this Hall and I am, glad so many of you folks came out here today. ,Of course, you know that the Directors take care of the money on loans. We work with the Supreme Ledge Officers and when you want something in the way of a loan My business with you to whom we have Marled money in this District has been Very courteous and it is a happy moment to be her with you this afternoon and thanks for inviting inc."

Brother Louis O. Hosek, Vestnik's editor, spoke next. "I am always glad to see so many I have known for years. I would like to speak to these memners who have been here for' Fifty years who have built this organization from scratch." Brother Easen then spoke ii Czech. "I would like to thank the lodge

V2STNIK— WEST, TEXAS

Wednesday, May 23, 1962

and Brother Barina for his efforts — that we have had such a nice membership increase. Like brother Kubena stated that we have more members in our District Meetings than some societies have at their conventions." Brother Hosek explained that today there are two District Meetings being held, so that it is impossible to be at both places at the same time. "We realize that there may be guests here who do not speak Czech, so I will speak also in English.

I am sure that all of you liked the Youth program and meeting — do not keep it all to yourself, when you see your neighbor, tell him that he should have been here; tell him that it was a very nice. meeting. We must meet often for in that way we come closer together. When we make an error we can better excuse each other when we know each other personally; our Officrs and Directors are very conscientions men, they see that our money is in loans, well invested. Give your officers a good word, because they really deserve it. If it were not so I would not say this; for I will tell you the truth. I would like for you to read the Vestnik, both the English and Czech

sections and what is good in it remember it. We have members all over the world. We have our boys everywhere and I get letters from them thanking me for every little bit of news from our communities. You will know that when a letter comes from Kovar everyone around her, from. Kovar, Bryan, Smithvine, read it. Remember that the Vestnik is published for you; that I have a job to do, but with our Vestnik we are all connected together, and we have a better feeling that we all belong to this big brotherhood.

"Honoring our old members and the Sixty-Fifth Anniversary of our Order, Vestnik will cover the 165 Lodges who were here fifty years ago; our Charter Members; and other worthy workers in the Lodge who have been faithful. I just want to say that I am glad to see all of you here today. Thank you," concluded Bro. Hosek.

Brother Troubil, who supervises our beautiful SPJST Rest Home in Taylor, Texas speaking in Czech, said: "I see that when brother Hosek asked if there is anyone who does not speak Czech — no one answered, so I will speak in

Strana 15

V S T Ni K — WEST TEXAS

Wednesday, May 23, 1962 Czech." Brother Troubil complimented I the audience and the meeting on how nice and quiet it was during the meeting. He complimented the youth program and its District Youth Director.

"To you who have belonged to the SPJST for over Fifty-Years, I sincerely congratulate you and I am sure that without your efforts our Order would not be and we would never have had a SPJST Rest Home and I assure you and everyone of you can be proud that we have so beautiful a Home upon which we can all be proud. The Commission in Austin took pictures of our Home and presented it as an example of how a Home should be built. With my wife, we have managed the Home •over four years. We realize that we lacked something for when our "Stariky" (old folks) became ill we had to send them elsewhere because we were not in a position to serve them. When we presented this problem before our Directors, they grasped this idea and our San Antonio Convention made it possible that we could make a loan of up to $100,000 and I am glad to say that now we have an Infirmary and invite all of you to our "Open House" on the Fourth Sunday in June to see what a beautiful Home we have.

"I want to say that we have some of the best Directors that we can have. They are: Brothers: Schovajsa, Sablatura, Kovar, Pokladnik, Skrabanek, Kveton.

and Marchak. As one of the Directors told me, that of all the work that he is called upon to do, he likes the work with the Rest Home best. Three of our Directors, themselves, have bought furnishings for three infirmary rooms.

At this time, Sister Jurica reported that she received a letter from Brother Hosek, Editor of Vestnik. He sent his regrets of not attending our Mbeting and stated that we should not hold two District Meetings on the same Sunday, in the future.

Last year our District met their quota of $300,000 insurance and that there are many outstanding organizers in this District who placed high for writing up insurance and membership but that we do not want to forget the fact that each contributed to make this result. So you and I will have to work just a little harder to get there. We know that you will do it: "I know," stated Bro. Kleperlik, "that District Seven will again reach its quota for 1962."

In all fairness we must also mention our wonderful Directors, who have the responsibility of the Home close to their hearts. There are seven of them, one from each of our seven SPJST Districts.

They donate lots and lots of their time for our cause, and lately have even gone down into their own pockets to underwrite some obligation which pressing, without thought of repayment or any interest. This is Christian Brotherhood in its broadest sense; and they deserve our most sincere thanks for their sacrifice.

SO, DO COME to our Open House and convince yourselves of the merits of our

(Translation of the Czech Letter)

Dear Sisters and Brothers: In today's issue of your Vestnik you will find the Announcement of our Celebration of the Opening of our new wing of our Home on June 3. The Infirmary, in our SPJST Rest Home.

With this, all of you are invited to come out, if at all possible for you, so that you could attend this gala event.

As you can see from the Program, Lodge Praha No. 29 of Taylor, Texas, will serve a delicious noon meal for a very moderate cost per plate.

The Afternoon Program will be short so that you could all have an opportunity to inspect the whole Rest Home premises.

At the Rest Home, our good sisters of Lodge No. 29 Praha of Taylor, will host you with coffee, punch and cookies.

For us in the Home, it will be a grand celebration and all of us are looking forward with much preparation and anticipation, now, we hope you will not disappoint us — we hope that on that day you will come.

If you only knew how our guests in the Home look forward to your visits and when you visited with them, I'm sure you would make it a point to be there.

Our Rest HOMO, also known by the Czech Domov Odpocinku" is over four years in existence. The Home is a living example of the motto of our SPJST Order; Benevolence, Humanity and Brotherhood.

With the building of the new wing, our Home is capable of caring for our residents when they become bedridden.

We are no longer forced to send them elsewhere for this special type of care.

We have residents here who have been with us almost from the opening. We are all getting old. We have three residents here who are over 90 years of age, seine will be 93 this year. The majority of them are between 75 and 90 years of age. This is truly •an enviable age.

My wife and me try with all of our capabilities, today with the whole Home personnel to make the Home as pleasant as possible for our guests in their old age, so that they Would be contented and happy. .

We believe that the majority of them are happy here, which is our reward for our efforts, for we, too, are happy that we are remembered, by your thoughts, by your gifts to the Home and your

Home and help us celebrate this occasion of this pretty and comfortable Home: that we never need be ashamed of, that bears our SPJST name for our Order. It is an excellent means of advertising as well as pride to Czech descendants in Texas.

Again — do come to our celebration, take an excursion to Taylor, you won't be sorry.

Until JUNE THIRD, we will be seeing you.

Yours, Rudolph Troubil P.S. The Choral Club of Lodge No. 84 of Dallas, promised to contribute to the occasion with their beautiful 40-voice choir, singing our beloved new and old Czech songs so close to our hearts.

Reports From Local Lodges SWEET HOME LODGE. NO. 63 Dear Members: This is to inform you that due to Sweet Home Catholic Church, picnic, our next regular meeting will be held the 4th Sunday which is May 27th at 2 o'clock so do not forget.

Following the meeting a social will be held. The sisters are asked, as usual, to; bring whatever goodies they wish for lunch.

Thereafter our meetings will be held as usual, the Third Sunday every month.

Remember the 4th Sunday and we will be looking for you.

Fraternally, Felix Jurica, Secretary KOVAB, TEXAS Dear Brothers and Sisters: I am happy to report that the last month of April was the best yet as to the certificates issued and amounts of insurance sold in our district one. Here are the actual figures, 31 new members with $50,500.00 insurance. Of course some of this was written late, in March as there was also some written late in April, which will be issued in May. The Supreme Lodge issued certificates up to the 26th of each month, those that come in later, are issued the following month.

That will help to explain why the written amount and the issued amount are nat always the same for any one month. Any way the record for last April is the best I remember, and if you boys and girls will keep up this good work we are not going to have any trouble reaching our quota which as you all know is one hunderd thousand more for this year than it used to be before.

The quotas were raised for this year because 1962 is our SPJST's Sixty-Fifth Anniversary and we want to celebrate it by writing extra large amounts of new members into our order as a token of appreciation of what it means to us.

We always like to brag about our SPJST, so now on its 65th anniversary let's also do something about it.

Here are the individual organizers' records for the huge success in April.

Just take a look at lodge No. 39 with its 12 new members and Brother Matejka the top man with Brother Petrusek second and Brother Jakubik and Brother Krupa tied for third. Let's see if we can repeat it — it is worth a good try, so let's get going. I already know that several good ones came in for May and I again want to assure all you good workers that your efforts are appreciated. The record shows that only 14 lodges out of 33 in our diStrict are really active, the inactive ones had better take notice, they too, could write up some new members if they only tried hard enough. We don't like to think that they are already dead. They are only asleep, but they better wake up or they might die sure enough.

It may be a little hard to start, but remember that we, from the district organizer on, up through, all the Supreme Lodge officers are anxious to help you, Please call on us sometimes, will you?

We : would like to have you with us when we are again going to celebrate the success of district one early text year.

RUST SOFTBALL TEAM, DALLAS Dear Brothers and Sisters: Monday night, May 14, we played the defeated by a score of 10 to 5, or perhaps I .should say — we beat'ourselves in the first inning by allowing eight runs on errors. After the nightmarish First Inning, the team played a very good game.

Wesley Jaska was on the mound, allowing five hits, no walks and struck out eight batters and only three of the 10 runs scored, were earned.

Frank Mach III, was our catcher.

Leading hitters were: Wes Jaska with a triple and two singles and Ted Dusek with two singles. Alex Parma had a single and a walk. Raymond Smith a single! Milton Spaniel a walk; Paul Valenta a walk and Albin (Bino) Vrana a walk.

Next Monday night May 21, we play Forney Engineering. First game at 7:30 p.m. at Samuel's Diamond No. 2. Then, the week of May 28th, which is an open week between halves, we will probably play a make-up game on Monday night, May 28, and it will possibly be against Capitol Records, ,gametime 8:45 p.m.

Wednesday night, May 16, we played the Falcon Manufacturing Team and we subdued them by a score of 28 to 0.

Boy! when we win — we win; or when we lose, we lose, what a score. Frank Mach III, pitched a no - hitter; struck out 10 batters and walked one as he fashioned his whitewash. He pitched a very good, game and Lawrence Honza, our catcher, turned in a very fine game behind the plate.

Leading hitters were: Prank Mach III, with four singles; Lawrence Honza with three singles, a walk and a Home Run; Milton Spaniel with three singles; Alex Parma with two singles and two walks; Ted Dusek, with •two singles and two walks; Albin (Bino) Vrana with 2 singles; Raymond Smith a Home Run and a single; Ben Jarma a triple; Jerry Manak a double; Jody Rejcek a single, and Paul Valenta a single.

Fraternally yours, Lillian Kosarek, Secretary • • CESKY PRAPOR LODGE NO. 24 Cyclone, Texas Dear Sisters and Brothers: Just a few lines after our Meeting. We had a very windy day last Sunday for this Meeting. There weren't too many of us there, due to Mother's Day. Anyway, we took care of our Lodge business soon, then returned home to visit our Mothers. Those of us who still do have a mother can consider yourselves very fortunate, for you really can miss them when they are gone. That — know.

Our Lodge No. 24, has chosen for our Queen's Contest, pretty Lydia Ann Psencik, daughter of Mrs. Lydia Psencik of Temple, Texas. Her escort will be James Martinec, son of Mr. and Mrs. Franklin Martinec. For our Duchess we will have little Anita Schiller, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Allen Schiller and her escort will be Wayne Psencik, son of Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Psencik. They will app ear in the Queen's Contest for the District and the Queen's. Ball during the coronation of the District Queen, which will be held in Seaton's Star Hall, en June 30. This is our District Two Contest and we wish all of them a lot of good luck. I know this will be very exciting.

In my last report I omitted one of our 50-year members which was our Brother Joe Schiller, of Cyclone. The name was not in the list that I used; later I was told he had received his 50-year pin.

WIDEEK.,...-"WaliefilBEENIMENEENZ LODGE NO. 38 KOVAR, TEXAS Dear Brothers and Sisters: VELKi VtBER Well, what we were looking forward to with anticipation is already in the past — our District Meeting.

I hope that everybody enjoyed it for it Pigte si o cenni' was very nice.

Cesk

We all thank Sister Lillie Matejka, our District Youth Director, for going into so much work with the Youth and its program. Also to Sister Dorothy Shearer from Bay City, for bringing her four daughters and presenting them. Training them as she does, takes time and we again thank her. To everyone goes our thanks for coming out, to be with us and enjoying the District Meeting: to the officers of the Supreme Lodge and their ladies, for coming: Editor L. 0.

Hosek and his kind wife — they had a long way to come. We ihope that all of you enjoyed coming over.

We hope to have you all baCk again.

Well — here I am — I've forgotten the names of members who received their 50-year pins at this meeting. I hope that brother Barina, will list them for us.

This time we have a few sick members: one was taken to the hospital our .nope you all get better Sister Sistek Our regular meeting on Mother's Day was small and we got over with it fast as people were having their children at home visiting. I'll tell you, I was mad, I had a chance to go to Houston to visit my daughter and son-in-law and I had to stay at home.

But we did a little in the meeting anyway, Brother Charles Kalina, mentioned that if we are going to have our Picnic, to start to do something earlier, so we left it for our next meeting on June 10th and we decided to have a Lunch, to honor Father's Day and Mother's Day together as it don't fall on that Sunday.

So, sisters, will you bring something for our table? We will make some coffee and tell the others about it — those who don't read their Vestnik- as they should.

Oh, gee, I nearly would have forgotten to thank Sister Mary Trlica for that nice work of painting that sign on the Hall.

Please don't forget to come to our next regular meeting on June 10th. Until then, I am Your Reporter Lillie Evieic
