4 Casto slySime nazvy "tepna", "Zia" nebo tea "ceva". Cevy je spoIeene jmeno pro tepny a Lily. Tepny rozvacleji krev od srdce,ly ptivadeji krev k srdci.

Liciske telo pottebuje k svemu Zivotu stalou docla yku yYZivnYch latek a kysliku. Ty to Ziviny a kyslik se ptivadeji do jednotlivych organn -Lela krvi. Aby vSechny easti tela byly dokonale krvi zasobovany, je tteba dostateene a pravidelne einnosti srdce. A dale, aby cevy (tepny i Zi.ly spoleone) Moldy Ukol piniti, musi bYt dobte prichodne a dostateene pruZne. TeZ east() slySime, Ze nekdo trpi kornatenim cev. Lekati reknou, ze je Cloy& neniocny arteriosklerOzou. To je nemoc, kdy se do cev, hlayne do tepen, uklada cholesterol a vapenate soli.

Vysvetlime to podrobneji. Ve stone tepny, totit cevy ktera rozvadi po tele krev ze srdce, usazuji se latky tukove povahy. Jako kdyZ hospodyne vyleva rtizne odpadky mastnoty do umyvaku (anglicky sink), a tuk se pomalu v odpadkoye trubce usazuje. Tepna rovneZ zachycuje tukove latky. Stem, tepny se tim jednak ztluSt'uje, ztraci pruZnost, t yrdne, a jednak se prtisvit nebo prUchod tepny zmer?S'uje. Hladka steno, tepny je porugena. Zasobovani krvi vazne. Kde je Mena tepny poSkozena, tam maze dojit k utvoteni krevnich sraZenin. Tyto sraZeniny lekati nazyvaji trombosa. Dojdeli k uepani celeho prtichodu tepny nekde v tele, tekneme v noze, eiovek citi estrou bolest. Ptivacieni kysliku a ZivnYch tek do ptislu gneho okrska je omezen, dokonce znemoZnen.

Kornateni tepen (arterioskleroza) je nemoc, ktera prichazi velmi pomalu, kdy svalova vlakna `tepen pozbYvaji sve pruZnosti. Ptieinou kornateni tepen jsou vs'echnystavya vady v tele, ktere zyySuji tlak krve. Casto ledviny a jatra nemohou postaeiti, aby proeis tily krev. Priroda si pomaha, chce zlep'Sit einnost jator a ledvin, Zene pies tato Ustroji vice krve, nuti srdce k vetsi eirmosti, ale stony tenen to nemohou yydrZet, stavaji se tvraimi, stony tepen se napiriuji vapenatyrni latkami.

Nejeasteji jsou kornatenim postiteny 'Lenny, ktere zasobuji srdeeni svaly, pak tepny, ktere vedou do mozku, do ledyin nebo do koneetin.

Kornatern tepen je prieinou rozmanitYch nemoci, ktere se dnes nejeasteji vyskytuji. Dlouho se myslilo, ze kornateni mlze Melt, Ze je to nemoc ptivodena starnutim, ze cevy se opottebuji a ne;louZi. Lekati vSak zjistili, ze kornateni neni zavineno vysokym vekem, ale vyivou. Prvni krok byl treinen, kdyZ se podatilo vyvolat nee() podobneho jako kornateni na zvireti. Kralik byl pfekrmovan tukovou latkou, zvanou cholesterol.

Te to belava, tukova 'Atka bez chuti a bez vtine, nalezajici se ye Zluei, ZludovYch kamincich, ye Zloutku veice a hlav-ne v nervove tkani Tak byla naznadena prvni cesta k tomu, jak zabranit nebo pfeclehazet kornateni.

Dale se zjistilo, ze tento chorobny postup se da nejen zastavit, ale ze se leeeni choroby mute upravit, tedy to jsou moZnosti leeebne. Je jiste, ze pfiein sklerosy coy je vice a to mnohe nezname.

Vime vgak, ze jedna z hlavnich pfiein nemoci je ukladani tukovYch latek, jako ucpani splachovaciho potrubi v kuchyni je zavineno mastnYmi pomyjemi. Toto uklaclani lze ovlivniti nebo zmirniti potravou. V krajich, kde lido jedi hodne tuenou stravu, je kornateni tepen zvlaSte eastym onemocnenim.

Jind je otazka ptirozenYch rostlinnYch tukii a oleju. Ukazalo se totiZ, ze rostlinne tuky nejen sklerosu nepodporuji, ale naopak maji brzdici vliv na vzniknuti nemoci. Proto je lope k ptiprave pokrmu poutit rostlinne oleje.

Druhy einitel, ktery ztejme podporuje kornateni, je otylost, telnatost, nadmerna, tlouSt'ka. Jak ukazuji statistiky -velkYch pojiยงt'ujicich spoleenosti, sti bide trpi sklerosou easteji net ti, kteti maji vahu norrnalni nebo niZti.

9 Rfitenka face nesla, to mill hoste tak zany odjeli a jakmile bylo motno, za j ela s matkou a nekdy I otcem aspori jednou tYdne za nimi.

Z poeatku provazel je vtdy Jarola, kterST v domacnosti bratrove prodlel celou svou mesieni dovolenou.

Ctil prant Ruteneino a nezapredl s ni jit nikdy nejakY hovor; obracel se k ni jen v otazkach nejnutnejtich, ale pH torn zcela bezvYznamnych.

Pant Doubra yska ov,§em zpozorovala, jejich nevtimavost k soh& a zvlaW WAtenein chlad, jejt projevovala uratena jeji hrclost.

Den pied odjeztian Jarolovym sedela, pant reditelova se schovankou v besidce. ZabYvaly se pletenim ylnenYch kukll a ponotek pro vojaky.

Mezi hovorem domlouvala pani Helena Rtitence, aby odlotila nemistnou nevtimavost k mlademu intenYru a ch•vala se k nemu, jak toho Meta, nejen blizkY, pribuzensky pomer, ale i spoleeensky ohled k milemu hosti.

Riltenka chtela namitnouti, ze neuznava tadneho pribuzenskeho svazku mezi mladYm mutem a sebou aze ho vlastne ant neni, ale hluboka jeji vditenost k matte neptipouttela, aby pronesla vYrok ten.

"Neptekatim mu a take se mu nevtiram," branila se, zustavajic v 'Leto veci verna sve stare svehlavosti.

"Nebud' tak zatrpklal Co ti &Intl?"

Rtitenka pokreila rameny a usmala se podivne: . "Nic! Matinko, ty jsi mi east() rikavala, te dfistojnost eloveka, tada, aby jednal vtdy prima a poctive a nesnitil se nikdy ku pretvarce. A ja, bych se musila pretvareti, kdybych Jarolov.' davala na jevo, ze k nemu chovam pribuzenskou naklonnost, o ktere vtak me srdce zhola nieeho nevi." nyni vykat?"

"A z tech dnvodit "Ano, a pak odcizil se mi lety, co jsem ho nevidela tak, ze mi drifejti "ty" nechce jiti z fist. Ostatne, myslim, matinko, to Jarolovi nejmene zaleti na tom, jake city chava k nemu bYvalY, nenavidenY divoch, pokatenY ulienik a protiva, ktera mu jen ztrpeovala pobyt v domove.

"Ale to jsou jen same domnenky, vyirostle v tve hrde hiaviece, mild Rittenko.

Neznat" 'dobre Jarolu; te to nekdy nenavidel. Takoveho nizkeho citu neni ant schopen. Jest velmi utlechtilYm mutem a zaslouti si tipine tve iicty a vatnosti."

"Neupiram mu ji, matinko a vatim si ho, jako katdeho radneho eloveka, ale prilnouti k nemu nemohu.. Nikdy jsem ho nemilovala tak jako strYeka Jindru a take mi navtdy zfistane lhostejnYrn.

10 Ach, matinko, letos se mi bude tedko z prazdnin odjiddeti a nerada na to vzpomenu, de co nevidet, pojedu naposled do Boleslave, rozlodeiti se!" obratila divka hovor jinYm smerem.

"Ad o vanocich prijede'S, bude nam snad vSe radostneji. Zajiste bude do to doby mir!"

"To bylo by asi radosti, kdyby , vojaci mohli vase dornti. Na bojikich jest asi straSnY kaddY okamdik. 0 Nemci vitezi na poidd! V neSt'astne Belgii pada jedna pevnost za druhou!"

"Ach, tam ty hrilzy konce nemaji. 0vkm, nepripravenY, zakerne prepadenST sok jest snadno premoden. Kam se to hrozna valka jeSte rozleti?" povzdechla pani Doubrayska.

"Jste take na bojiStich?" ozval se Jarola, vstupuje do besidky a polodil piled S'vekruk sekt Ottova obrazkoveho tSr g.el "Svetozor" a jeho-deniku."Zdeo obrazova Cast jest opravdu elm dal tim hezei. Same pustoSeni vkho, co po staleti dokazala pile a umeni lidske."

"Co dog° jeSte pokou?" tazala se pani reditelova, prohlidejic easopis.

"Zvon" a svazek "Vilimkovy knihovny" a pak nejakY dopis, tu gim — pro tebe!" — Jarola obratil se k Rildence pat-al/Vn pohledem.

"Pro mne?" vyskoeila, tvat ji vzpla-, nula a. oei zazarily.

Odlodila rychle praci a mihla se zahradou jen jako prelud zrakilm z besidky ji provazejicim.

Jarola mleel a teprve pc) chvili tazal se ‘liakrove, preje-li si, aby ji je gte prines1 dokou poStu. "ChceS"-li bYt tak laskav —" usmala se pani Helena, dobre rozumejic jeho nabidce.

Jarola se vzdalil.

Po celY eas sveho pobytu zde snail se vyhoveti prani Rildeneinia Aekoliv se mu easto na rty dralo tisice otazek pill pohledu na ni, premohl se a mleel. Pri prochazkach hovorival skoro vSihradne s pani Helenou, zatim co Rddenka, jako tekave ptaee pobihala kolem a sbirala bud' lesni ovoce anebo trhala kvetiny.

Ale dnes, posledni den dovolene, zatoudil znovu vice po sblideni s ni. Za kolik tYdnil pospoliteho divota picesvedeil se, de bYvala plana rtdieka stala se skuteene tou nejkrasnejk, nejvonelk rddi stolistou, de v ni uskuteenil se jeho ideal deny, jehod vzorem byla mu u glechvekruk.

ani nejmenk Cast onoho hrdeho sebevedomi, ktere se mu ostatne na Rillence velice libilo.

Po eelY eas sveho pobytu bedlive stredil -Leiner kaddy jeji krok a vkcko jeji konani, ba kaddou mykenku, a doSel k presvedeeni, de jest drahokamen -name ceny, jejd stilj co stfij musi ziskati.

Rikal si sice velmi easto, de se laska vynutiti neda, ale tall se velkym dim milovane divky, jejid srdce zajiste leSte drimalo klidnYm snem a choval dhavou 'lade% ze i ona pozdeji jej i jeho lasku oceni, ze se mu podaii ziskati si jeji uctu a probuditi srdce jeji k lake.

Nyni by si nebyl ani troufal pro jeji velke mladi hovoriti s ni o citech, ktere dovedou /nude a 2enu spojiti nejpevnejkm svazke ma v nichd jest zaklad vakereho jejich divotniho Atesti a biaha.

Mladieke srdce jeji je gte drimalo, ale on by byl rad stredil jeho probuzeni, aby v one daledite chvili nevyskytl se na blizku jinY mud, jend odvadnou rukou sahnul po krasne, vonne rtizdi, po ktere jid zatoudil a jid ziskati chtel on.

Kolikrate chtel se Jaroslav sveriti pani Helene svou laskou, poprositi ji, aby pusobila u Rildenky v jeho prospkh, ale pak se nazval blahovcem, jend v dzkosti o vzacny poklad sveho srdce byl by schopen ueiniti se smanSin. Helena byla ov'Sern laskava, dobra a milovala jej jako bratra a byla by mu zajiste nejlepe porozumela. Ale on ota,lel neustale, predstavuje si v duchu ddiv jej i nad zpravou jeho, nemaje ani tukni o tom, de gyekruge jid davno uhodla, co se deje v jeho srdci.

Dnes se vSak nanelvy g zneklidnil dopisem, kterY mu Ko'gVal pro Rildenku odevzdal a jehod adresa byla psana radnym, mudskYm pismem.

Bylo by snad modno, aby si Rfidenka jid dopisovala s mudem? Byl by se snad domnivaje se, de pees svou velkou, dukvni vyspelost jest jegte detinskou?

V touze vypatrati, kdo asi Rildence dopis pige, nabidl se pani Helene, donesti pokou ostatni, v nadeji, de Ril2enku nalezne v jidelne, kamd byl odlodil na still dopis jeji a zminene easopisy a de nejak nahodou zvi, kdo e pisatelem dopisu, jejd obdrdela.

Nalezl mladou divku skuteene v lidelne, stala u Okna s dopisem v ruce, nad nimd nepochybrie plakala, jelikod si rychle stirala size, kdyd Jarola vstoupil.

Spatriv ji placici, zapomnet v nahle ilzkosti na svfij slib a pristoupil k ni rychle:,‘ "Pi-obi:1h, co se stab? Ublidil ti nekdo, Rildenko?"

Vzal jeji drobnou rueku do sve a pohledl patrave do jeji uslzene tvare.

Wednesday, November 14, 1962 "Proe by mi kdo ublidoval?" odpovedela, vyvinula rychle svou ruku z jeho a ustoupila o krok.

"A proe tedy places!"

"To jest mou veci!" odvetila opet hrde a Jarolovo srdce se poznovu bolestne sevrelo.

"Ovkm, za,pomnel jsem, des mi odriala v gecko pra y° starati se o tve dalektosti. Stalo se to vgak zcela bezdeene, odpust'!" rekl ponokud trpce, odstoupil vzal easopisy se stolu a vykl yen.

Rudenka sledovala jej pohledem, jend rozhodne nesouhlasil s prikrosti jejich slov.

Opakovala si j e, kdyd zmizel poznovu a pak zapominajic na dopis, vzpomnela i na ona slova, ktera k ni promluvil hned prvni den sveho pobytu zde: "Prieinim se, abys byla se mnou spokojena!" Co mu na tom zaledelo, bude-li ona s nim spokojena, di . nikoliv? Rildenka se zamyslila a pak zcela bezdeene veka do salonu, vytahla z knihovny objemr4r svazek. "Zlate Prahy", rozev •ela jej na ureite strance a pohroudila se v pozorovani tand Dvotakova "svateho Vavrince".

MladY indenSir, vykd z vily yen, zat'al zuby do rtii stahl fiporne ciao& a snadil se ptemoci bouti, jed mu v prsou zurila. Po chvili pre j el si rukou 'delo, vydechl hluboce a vratil se k pani Doubra yske do besidky.

Usedl opet mleky podle ni, listoval zcela bez aeasti v easopisech, pak opet hluboce oddech1 a kdyd se pa nem Avekrue obratila, pronesl jid s pevnou rozhodnosti.

"Main k tobe velkou, velkou prosbu, Helenko; jedine ty mutes mi rezumeti, jedine ty mutes mi pomoci!"

"Nude, povez mi, co meho draheho Jarolu tidi; pozoruji jid nejakY eas, de neni tako“im, jakYm byval drive a de cosi velkeho musilo vstoupiti v cestu j eho divota. . ."

"A uhodlas. .. jako vddy," rekl pohnut a polibil-jeji jemnou ruku. "Skuteene me zaujalo cosi, nao jsem dosud pri pilnSrch studiich nevzpomnel — laska, Helenko, ktera jest snad proto tak vrouci a hluboka, de miluji poprve a take —. naposled.

"Mello klenotu?" opakovala Helena, tvaric se nevedomou.

OFFICIAL ORGAN OF SLAVONIC BENEVOTJONT ORDER OF THE STATE OF TEXAS FOUNDED 1897

VtSTNiK —HERALD—

WechiL day, November 14, 1962

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

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

Postmaster: Please Send Form 35'79 With Undeliverable Copies to SUPREME LODGE SPJST, P.O. Box 100, TEMPLE, TEX.

From the Empty Chair The SPJST grew from a tiny seedling of some two dozen men who gathered in La Grange in December of 1896 to create an organization with the motto: Benevolence, Humanity, and Brotherhood.

Then, a few months later, in 1897, they obtained a charter from the State of Texas, the exact copy of which can be found in the English version of the Order, pages 122-125. Since every one of the founders could speak the Czech language fluently, some of them probably were not too proficient in English, the name of the fraternal Order was "Slovanska Podporujici Jednota Statu Texas." The initials of the five words are still used — S'.P.J.S.T. o • The aims and purposes of the new society was, and still is, among others, to write life insurance to its members at the lowest possible cost, to foster a spirit of fellowship, fraternal love and mutual helpfulness, to develop and make of the fellow members better men and women, to sponsor and encourage education, not only on the elementary level but also in colleges and universities, to diffuse the principles of democracy, and to have better understanding of our democratic institutions and the form of government in the United States, to foster at all times patriotism, loyalty and devotion to our country and to prepare our members for a more complete and faithful performance and discharge of -their duties as American citizens.

14 Mrs. Anna Eleanor Roosevelt, the 73year--old widow of the nation's 32nd President also called the First Lady of the World, died at 5:15 p.m. Wednesday, November 7th at the Columbia-Presbyte •ian Medical Center in New York.

Mrs. Roosevelt had been under treatment for an infectious lung ailment. She was hospitalized Sept. 26 but returned to her home Oct. 18. illc widow of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who died in office April 12, 1945, as this country's 32nd President, Mrs. Roosevelt was one of the most active and controversial women of the 20:P. Century.

She was repeatedly voted "the woman most Americans admire."

Just how controversial was illustrated in 1960, when she went to Florida on a speaking engagement.

In Miami, an anonymous caller threatened to kill her, to which Mrs. Roosevelt responded: "It wasn't upsetting atall."

Two days later. on March 15, 1960, sae addressed a Negro and white audience in St. Petersburg, despite a telephone threat of bomb , violanve.

Mistress of the White House for 12 years. Mrs. Roosevelt, after her husband's death, was chairman for five years of the United Nations Commission on Unman Rights and a United States delegate to the U.N. general assembly.

She was a globetrotter, lecturer, newsp aper columnist, magazine writer and hook author.

Only last September 9, she rejected a suggestion by Rep. Emanuel Celier (D., N.Y.) that she be nominated as the Democratic candidate for the United States Senate from New York.

In the past year, Mrs. Roosevelt had been active in efforts to free Cuban invaders held prisoners by Fidel Castro, in the field of women's rights and in the United Nations.

In May, 1961, she helped head .a citizens committee to raise funds to pay for 500 bulldozers demanded by Castro as ransom for the 1200 Cuban invaders.

The fund drive failed.

Last December, PreSident, Kennedy announced creation of a 26-member commission to recommend means of seeing that women get equal rights. He named Mrs. Roosevelt to head the commission.

And the President, last February, nominated her to the five-member United States delegation to the 15th session of the U. N. General Assembly.

Mrs. Roosevelt had the news reporter's inborn desire to see things first

Wednesday, November 14, 1962 Five years after the marriage, Franklin began his political career. He was elected in 1910 to the New York State Senate. In 1913, he became assistant secretary of the. Navy under President Woodrow Wilson.

Mrs. Roosevelt's interest in politics developed during these years --- and these are the same years during which she began to conquer her shyness. In 1924, she became chairman of the New York Democratic state committee, a position she held until 1928 when her husband was elected governor of New York.

Roosevelt was re-elected in 1930. He entered' the White House in 1933.

The Roosevelts moved into the White House in the depth of the depression.

Her activities on behalf of her causes were carried out without regard for custom or criticism and her outspokenness brought many attacks against her.

At 76, after trying her hand anew at commercial TV ads she ruefully wrote: "They say I'm too controversial to have a sponsored television program of my own." It was fun, though, to have Cole Porter write for Broadway in "Anything Goes" the lines: "If Mrs. R. with all her trimmings can sell some beds for the brothers Simmons, then — Franklin Knows — Anything Goes."

In addition to everything else, "Mrs. R." was our most lampooned and cartooned first lady.

Her informality made headlines in 1939 when King George VI and Queen Elizabeth of England visited the United States.

She was very much an issue in some of her husband's campaigns, but during his life and her own after he died, she never showed any sign that she was nettled in the least by her opponents.

She was the first wife of a President to address a national political convention. That was in 1940, when she appearIed before the Democratic convention that nominated her husband for a third term.

Her efforts on behalf of the advancement of Negroes and other racial minority groups were construed by many as an attempt to bring about social equality.

"Unless we learn to live in harmony with people of different races, of different colors, we will never have toe kind of peace we hope for," she said, in opening a fund drive for a Negro orphan asylum.

Mrs. Roosevelt shocked many of the nation's voters early in her husband's tenure in the White House. She refused to take her role as chief society matron

in the White House. Instead, she held news conferences, made radio broadcasts, wrote books, spoke at political rallies.

She toured the country. She visited mines, slum areas, migrant camps and bread lines. Her endorsement of federal relief measures aroused charges that funds were being wasted because of the first lady's sentiments.

a philosophy of government.

She was such a tireless and effective spokesman for the democratic and human rights longings of all people that "First Lady of the World" became one of her many unofficial titles.

She went twice to the Soviet Union, to Arab countries, Israel, Japan, Yugoslavia, India, Morocco, Hong Kong and elsewhere. When she visited the Shiek Suleiman near Beersheba he already had 39 wives, but he put up Mrs. Roosevelt's picture and later told her son James that she should have been his 40th.

During World War II when her four sons and son-in-law were in military service, Mrs. Roosevelt visited training camps, posts of duty and military hospitals.

Are You Troubled By Sleeplessness?

Many persons are. Our SPJST members are not exceptions. It is estimated that in the United States about onehalf of thepeople have occasional or frequent difficulty sleeping. Sleeplessness is such a idespread problem that it is one of the commonest complaints met by physicians.

Doctors generally prefer to use the term insomnia for prolonged failure to obtain enougn sleep necessary to maintain health and well-being. It may take the form of inability to fall asleep upon retirement, frequent awakenings in the course of the night or awakening before enough hours of sleep have been obtained. One of the first things a person troubled by regular sleeplessness should do is to check to make certain that it is not caused by some physical disease. When physicial disease can be ruled out, it is often found that one may have the wrong' attitude toward sleep, or that there is some emotional disturbance such as worry.

Some persons worry considerably if they have a sleepless night, failing to realize that occasional sleeplessness is not unusual. In the analysis of close to

7,000 nights of sleep, Dr. Nathaniel Kleitman concluded that the average good sleeper has a difficult time sleeping• about one night in ten. Yet one bad night in ten can set some persons to worrying, build up anxiety, which, in turn, brin gs on more sleeplessness.

Because of the fear of losing sleep, some persons try too bard to go to sleep; they try to force sleep. This defeats one's objective, since it increases muscle tension and feeds back nervous impulses that keep the brain awake. Trying too hard to ,go to sleep does not work, because going to sleep is not done all at once, but rather little by little.

Human sleep is now believed by some authorities to be made up of about seven sleeps, separated by periods of shallow slumber or wakefulness. Most persons are said to awaken or half awaken during at least one of these periods; such awakening is not to be confused with insomnia. But insomnia can occur when a. person becomes alarmed about this momentary wakefulness and thus has trouble tapering off into sleep again. Insomnia is often said to be an attitude about one's sleep.

What appears to be insomnia to some persons may be exaggeration. When one thinks he is awake during, the night, he may be partly asleep; in the morning he may think that he has spent a great

deal of the night awake. Actually one can expect the seesawing back and forth between wakefulness and sleep several times through the night. But the loss of sleep is rarely as bad as it seems. If a person feels a sense of well-being and is able to exert his natural facilities the next day, then he needs no treatment for insomnia. When you experience one of these momentary periods of semiwakefulness, keep thinking that in a few moments deep sleep will come; you will be asleep that much sooner. ) 0( Illiteracy in the U.S. Although the United States is considered one. of the world's most advanced countries, it was reported this year by Wilbur J. Cohen, assistant secretary of health, education and welfare, that there were 2,850,000 adults living in the country who could neither read nor write. Some 8,000,000 Americans over twenty five years of age had not gone beyond the fifth grade, according to Secretary of Lobor Arthur J. Goldberg. )0( All living institutions, like languages, undergo constant changes. The everpopular Christmas is no exception.

Dear Sisters and Brothers: Well, I don't even know how to start this letter.

I always say I will write after the meeting right away and still don't do it, so, then I forget what was done and said.

As you all know, in the November Meeting there will be the Election of Officers for next year. So, all of you conic out and vote for the ones you want in office.

I think that after the meeting we shall again have lunch, so all of you come!

At this time we have some members on the "sick list": Brother Willie Malina who is in Dr. Wesbuchman's Hospital and also, Sister Agnes Zimmerhanzel who is in the same hospital.

My aunt on my mother's side, Mrs. Mary B. Rosanky, died recently. I visited her on a Sunday awhile back and it wasn't too long after that they came to tell me she had passed away. I just couldn't believe it, for it had been only three hours since I had been with her.

Today, Miss Anton Kand's funeral was held at Barton's Creek. She had been living in Houston.

In September Brother August Haidik and his wife celebrated their Silver Wedding Anniversary in the SPJST Lodge at Kovar. We all had a wonderful time.

Thanks for inviting me.

LODGE NO. 66, WACO, TEXAS

Dear Readers, On October 25, SPJST lost one of our dearly beloved brothers, L. 0. Hosek, editor of the Vestnik. Brother Hosek lived a happy 73 years most of which were spent helping SPJST and its youth.

Brother Hosek, a greatly loved man by all, will be missed for he was like a father to everyone. Many even called him and his â&#x20AC;˘ lovely wife, Papa and Mama Hosek. Brother Hosek is gone but will never be forgotten by the ones he helped and loved. For he did many grfeat and wonderful things to make SPJST grow during his lifetime. One of the many things he did was help start District Three on a project for a Youth Camp which will soon be started thanks to efforts of Mr. and Hosek and others I think it would be nice to honor him by naming our Youth Camp in memory of him.

'Til next week, I must close.

Sincerely, Zephyr Spence, Youth Club Reporter Lodge No. 66, Waco

Wednesday, November 14, 1962 tunity of meeting Mr. Hosek in person, but I feel like I knew him through the good job he did editing this wonderful paper. May he rest in peace.

Lodge No. 88 has been full of activity lately. Friday night Nov. 2, the Board of Directors conducted a meeting, and so did the Entertainment Committee.

The City of Temple, Texas, was over come by members of Lodge Pokrok No. 38 Saturday, Nov. 3. The occasion was the big Kadlecek and Holtman wedding.

This was an all-day celebration and everyone there had a wonderful time. We had the pleasure of meeting a lot of nice people and also went to see the Supreme Lodge Office. We all had accomodations at the Kyle Hotel and enjoyed the stay very much.

Sunday morning all of us came back to Houston, as a few of us were members of the cast of the. English operetta "In Old Vienna," that was presented that afternoon at 3:30 p.m. here at Lodge No. 88. The attendance was real good and the play was a success. Brother president Tim Kostom missed out on the wedding.

He stayed to see that the hall and stage were all set up for the play. I must say I really enjoyed being part of the cast.

It was a pleasure working with the Houston Community Chorus and the Dramatic Club Hlahol.

Brother Milos Karel informed me that plans for a Czech play are underway to be presented sometime in February.

So watch for further details.

The Birthday Club Sisters had a sell out for their Turkey Luncheon Wednesday. Those ladies sure put out some good dishes. Plan to attend some of their luncheons and you will agree with me.

Dear Sisters and Brothers: Seldom can you see a free snow and program to equal that put on through the combined efforts of Lodge Jaro No. 130, Sokol Zizka, and Czech Women, with the help of our sister lodge choir from Lodge No. 84. This occasion took place at the Sokol Athletic Center, Dallas, on Sunday, November 4th at 4:00 p.m.

A very fine movie released by CBS "From Munich to Moscow," brought ail those present into the middle of the great and tragic events of Czechoslovak history. The movie started with the entrance of the Nazi troops into Czechoslovakia, brought out forcefully the suffering of the people during the Nazi occupation and their resistance the last days of war with the street fighting in Prague with the American and Red arm closing in on the city. People felt a lump in their throats when President Benes was returned from the long exile to the cheers of thousands of his people. Then came the years of twilight in which forces of freedom and dietatorstip were staging a great battle for the minds and souls of free people. This time it was a battle between communism and democracy. This picture brought out the communist threat of force and the defeat of Czechoslovak democracy in the coup-d'etat of February, 1942 When the movie was closing with the picture of the funeral of Edward Benes, I saw quite a few people crying and all were deeply moved. This film is available free from Associattion Films Inc., 1621 Dragon St., Dallas 7, Texas, and I heartily recommend it to all organizations throughout Texas for their programs. After the picture, our educational director of Sokol Zizka, Brother M. Halouzka summed up. the years preceding and following that fateful date, which was ver y much a ppreciated by all.

An indivisible part of those tragic years was the last Sokol Slet in Prague, with its calls for freedom and defiance of the communist regime the mood of the Slet was admirably recreated by Brother George Sko ak â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Faith in the future of Sokol was expressed, with a youthful vigor by the President of Sokol Zizka, Brother J. Pokladnik. He pointed Out the vitality of 'the ideals, 'under which Sokol was iikrtinded 100 years ago and singled out for attention the principles of never-ending activity and never-ending dissatisfaction. He called for Sokols not ever to stop, always to move and to invent new fields and new methods of activity. He warned against 'the danger of dulling self-satisfaction and called on all of us, always to try to im-

Our leader invites and urges all the club members, any age, who would like to go, to be sure and try to be there at 6 p.m. You need not know how to skate.

You can just go along with the crowd, and go to the Westview play land carnival that is near the skating rink.

All the parents are also invited. Those who wish to go and help furnish transportation are asked to bring or send enough sandwiches for their group; the club will furnish the rest. Be sure and mark your calendar for this day so you won't forget it and miss it. We all are looking for a big time.

Her husband Brother Raymond Vochoska. also had a Birthday on this day, Nov. 4, and we say "Thank you very much for bringing the cake."

The girls that were selling the tickets for our club fund each received a gift from the Youth Leader and the duo for doing a good job and earning $44.

Again we want to thank every one for helping us in every way.

Fraternally, Jeanette Krizan,

Most of the wall calendars have the 12th of November marked red. Tne preceding day, Sunday, has a notation "Veterans Day." But some calendars and almanacs sayl "Armistice or Veterans Day." When the world's peacemakers named that blessed day 44 years ago Armistice Day, they made a prediction, whether knowingly or not, which was to be fulfilled with horrible and brutal reality some twenty years later.

Webster defines the word "armistice as a "brief cessation of arms, by convention; a temporary suspension of hostilitieS by agreement; a truce."

None of us needs to be reminded how brief, how temporary was the life of the "war to end all wars" myth. Before the next generation was mature, armies were on the march again, the blood of millions flowed in waste, and the priceless treaties of mankind reduced to desolation.

Yes; it was 44 years ago on November 11, 1918, at 11 o'clock in the morning, when the armistice agreement signed between the Allies and Germany became effective. It was an armistice applauded by the world in the belief that it meant the end of all wars.

The termination of World War I brought us temporary 'peace, at the cost of over 330,000 casualties of our finest American manhood, not to mention property destruction, millions of dollars of tax burdens, and broken hearts. It was a heavy price to pay, but as Americans who cherish peace and freedom, we accepted it with hope in our hearts and a prayer on our lips.

Later we discovered that war had not been outlawed nor had a true peace been accomplished. To the contrary, the lust for power was still buried in the hearts of some leaders with the result that within a period of 20 years the world was again bathed in blood and tears.

Today, as we observe Armistice Day, we are mindful of those Who were in uniform on November 11, 1918, and especially the unknown soldier who is a symbol of all those who have made the supreme sacrifice for our country.

At this time, we recall that great holocaust of World War II which cost America more than 294,000 men killed and a total of 1,050,000 casualties. These men too, believed their sacrifices would preserve our American way of life and protect the freedoms of our allies.

The worldwide destruction, the numerous tragedies of war, and tax bur- I dens imposed, will long be remembered

Veterans, or Armistice Day by millions of people around the world as the bitter aftermath of the Second World War. Living as we do today, in a .confused and divided world, Armistice Day like Memorial Day provides an opportunity to recount the blessings we enjoy as American citizens.

There are over 185 million of us Americans and we cannot help but be concerned over the world crisis Which we now face, and may face for many years to come.

There is no denial of the fact that we are living in a tragic era of world affairs and it is therefore incumbent upon all to take inventory and make an appraisal, especially in view of the possibility of an atomic war.

With our American way of life being. threatened from within and without, right-thinking Americans believe peace can be maintained only through strength. This belief is based on the fact that requisite strength will be attained only after all patriotic and God-fearing Americans assume their individual responsibilities as good citizens and help make our country stronger economically, and educationally.

It is to be regretted that too many Americans are so complacent about the major problems facing this Nation that they will tell you such matters are the responsibility of top leaders in our variPus governmental departments. They will tell you that the strength and power of the United States rests entirely in Washington, D. C. That opinion is fallacious.

The truth is that the strength and power of our country and the spirit that activates it rests with you and me and every citizen throughout this nation.

Each and every one of us must assume some role of citizenship and leadership.

By this we demonstrate our loyalty. We show our vigilance and our' awareness of the many and varied problems facing our communities, our states, and our nation.

Today a citizen, to be effective, must be informed. He must study the needs and problems of his local and the worldwide community and endeavor to meetthem to the best of his ability --- whether it means exercising the fullest use of the ballot, accepting jury duty, working for a better educational system, or spreading the word of the advantages — yes; the blessings -® of our way of life,

Wednesday, November 14, 1962 Citizenship begins at the grassroots or precinct level. We must do our part to overcome the lake warm attitude displayed by some people. In this connection the noble ins piration of the Founding Father must move us — as it moved them.

As the author, Tom Paine, phrased it so well at the time of the American Revolution. "Those who expect to reap 'the blessings of freedom must, like men, undergo the fatigues of supporting it."

And just as in Paine's time, we cannot repeat too often that eternal vigilance is the price of liberty, and that the price of freedom, does not come cheaply.

We, as citizens, must do our part in the, critical years ahead -- even though it means great personal sacrifices„ which are necessary to protect our liberties and our nation, which at this very moment are in great jeopardy. In short we as a nation are engaged in a contest for survival.

What can we do? To begin with we must rededicate . ourselves to the principles of the founding fathers. We must keep America strong and great — an example to the whole free world, and a symbol to the enslaved.

As- we Observe the 44th aniversary of the armistice of World War I, now renamed to be called Veterans Day, I am certain. that 'you agree it is time to reappraise the benefits and blessings we enjoy in our country. Yes, peace-loving Americans must again ask themselves -- am I discharging my obligations as an American citizen to the best of my ability? At the same time all of us by our words and deeds should reaffirm our allegiance to the United States and our way of life.

We should no id high the banner of mn dignity and liberty, of justice, peace, and understanding, among the freedom-loving peoples of the world.

This type cf Simon-pure Americanism is what our nation needs today if it is to retain its prestige as the leader of all the free nations of the world and to serve as a beacon light in the titanic struggle for a lust and lasting peace.

RESOLUTION OF SYMPATHY

MFN TO BE FOLLOWED

We, the undersigned members of the Resolution Committee of Lodge Needville, No. 81, in behalf of our membership, wish to express our heartfelt sympathy, to the bereaved family, on the death of their husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather, and our beloved lodge brother

The people are on the lookout for men fit to be followed, and those who aspire to leadership are always trying to recommend themselves for the function.

What, then, are the qualities which fix the attention and win the favor of the people? Two are of especial value. One is initiative. Leadership consists above all things in the facility of going before others instead of following after others; that is to say it is promptitude in seeing the next step to be taken and courage to take it. It is the courage which does not merely stand firm to resist an approaching foe but heads the charge against him. Nothing so much disposes men to follow as the swift resolution of one who is ready to take risks, the courage which makes one captain , take his ship out from a lee-shore, under full steam, against a hurricane, while other captains are hesitating and trying to calculate the danger.

1 The other quality is the power to comprehend exactly the forces that affect the minds of the people and to discern what they desire and will support. These two gifts are precious hecause they are rare.

Fable of Our Times There was a man who had an acre.

This was enough for him to live on, but not enough to make him secure. So he acq-alred the acre to the left of his acre, the one to the right, the one be1.ind, and the one across the road.

Now his first acre was protected, but he had four othres that needed protection. So he acquired eight more, and then another twelve for their protection By the time he had expanded his holdings to include the eastern half of Germany and the northern half of Korea he was more insecure than before.

When he saw that his neighbors were still just as close to his frontiers he said it made him feel as if he had a bone in his throat. Their preparations to resist the further expansion of his holdings (which was now essential to his security as never before) seemed to him provocative. So he told them that if, when he pushed them, they pushed back, he in turn would push them back — and then the whole world would see for itself who had started the pushing back.

His neighbors told everyone there would be no war because, in the Nuclear Age, pushing had become an obsolete means of gaining one's ends. He also told everyone there would be no war, but the reason he gave was that what had become obsolete in the Nuclear Age was pushing back.

So he pushed them, because he felt that was not obsolete, and they pushed back because it seemed the best thing to do, and just at that point the story ends.

24 Insurance authorities state that in the United States a "reasonably adequate" insurance policy would cost a workingman about a fifth of his salary. Since that represents more money than the average family can afford, it is reasonable to conclude that most American families do not carry what the incurance companies consider to be "adequate insurance." What many of these families have done, because of high insurance costs, is become more selective in their choice of insurance. They have chosen a few select policies that promise them the greatest protection at rates they can afford; then they hope for the best.

There are only a few basic types of insurance contracts, there are nevertheless, many varieties of policies on the market. These varieties are mainly a result of combinations and variations of special added features. Each type of policy is made to do a certain job or fit a certain situation. Each has its uses, its advantages and disadvantages.

There are numerous companies today selling insurance. In the United States alone there are now some 800 companies writing automobile insurance. In addition, there are companies that sell fire, windstorm, household liablilty, household theft, hospital and surgical insurance. There are also companies selling life insurance, disability insurance and, insurance for almost everything, you can possibly think of. The big questions are, from whom is it wise to buy and what is it wise to buy? How can a buyer possibly evaluate or compare the offerings of the thousands of companies now selling insurance?

Quite naturally, if you decide to carry insurance, you want a company that will give you, service and will deal promptly with you, giving you the full amount to which you are entitled without needless legal maneuvering or a' great loss of time on your part. So, then, while the price of the policy is an important factor, it is not everything.

Quality and service are also recognized essentials. No one wants an insurance policy that is a meaningless scrap of paper, but that is what many get, because they do not know what they are t buying.

The very fact that there are many bitter complaints about insurance companies being slow about fulfilling the terms of their contracts should be reason for caution. One of the Greatest Dangers is that of signing up with a take-all but do-nothing company. It is tragic to become involved with a company that will offer to pay too little, or

VESTNtKâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; WEST, TEXAS

Know Your Insurance will delay in settling a claim, or will demand so much of your time that you will be forced to agree to settle for considerably less than what would be a just and honest settlement.

Some insurance pitfalls can be avoided by doing business with reputable insurance companies and by being more aware of the dangers involved. So that you may be better informed on this subject, the following suggestions are made: Do not let an insurance agent talk you into buying a policy you have not verified, da not understand or with which you are not completely satisfied.

Never be in a hurry to sign your :name to contracts, no matter how urgent the matter may appear to be. If an agent exerts pressure, that is a sure sign to go easy, to allow yourself time for second thoughts and re-examination of the policy. Remember, haste makes waste.

If you are insurance bargain-hunting, you are apt to get stung. Instead of a bargain, the policy may turn out to be a first class booby trap. Just because an insurance company advertises loud and long and promises you everything under the sun for a few pennies .a day, that does not mean you are being offered a bargain. The company may be a fraud or its policies not worth much more than the paper, they are written on. The false bargains are generally offered by out-ofstate firms that you cannot sue. The reputable companies can not offer cheap insurance. The best they can do is try to explain why insurance comes high.

Here are a few reasons why there are no insurance bargains today. Every year about 10,000,000 accidents of one kind or another occur on United States highways. Ten million accidents mean big garage bills, hospital bills and doctor bills. The present bill for medical expenses, property damage and loss of wages to survivors of automobile accidents alone runs between $5,000,000,000 to $7,000,000,000 a year! Each year that bill grows when an additional 300,000 accidents are added to the toll. By 1975 insurance companies envision an annual highway death toll of 55,000, an accident toll of 13,000,000 and an injury toll of 4,000,000, with an highway accident bill of more than $20,000,000,006!

Now, do not make the mistake of believing that insurance companies are the ones paying this bill. The policyholders are the ones who must pay. That is why your auto insurance rates are higher.

Wednesday, November 14, 1962 Another thing, the legal system in the United States appears to he dedicated to the idea that anyone who gets hurt is entitled to collect, regardless of who if anybody was to blame. A woman, for example, trippled over a :garbage can in a dimly lit hallway. She sued the owner of the building and collected $221,000 for injuries suffered. When an auto backfired, a horse leaped and threw its rider.

The car driver was sued. The rider was awarded $150,000. Who pays these exorbitant bills? Not the insurance companies, you can be sure of that, but those who buy liability insurance. They pay for these bills in the increased cost of insurance.

There is still another reason for high costs. Wherever you find easy or big money there too you find a number of thieves. And the insurance business is no exception to the rule. Being considered an easy way to make money, it attracts corrupt elements all the more. A few questionable lawyers may unite with a couple of crooked doctors and garagemen, and the result is that insurance companies are swindled out of millions of millions of dollars yearly. The dishonest garageman will inflate damage costs, the doctor will testify as to injuries suffered and the lawyer will plead the case before liberal juries and benign judges who are more and more inclined to give bigger and bigger awards. Corruption comes high, and who pays the bills? Policy owners. Just guarding against frauds costs the liability companies more than a million dollars a year. It is estimated that corruption and fraud have hiked insurance costs to twice the price buyers would have to pay normally.

Therefore, if anyone comes around selling cheap insurance policies -- beware! Bargain days appear to be over. ) 0 Comforting Thought It would be an awful mess in a case of an attack by the hydrogen bomb, unless there were literally no survivors. But a comforting thought comes from the philosophy of poet George Santayana: "I give back what the earth gave" All to the furrow, nothing to the grave."

So, in the long run, the philosopher gives us more than the scientists: More than something to live by, something to die by. Life is given to be spent, lived up. It is the only way to cheat death. ;0I Photographs mailed to the editor WILL NOT RE RETURNED to the sender unless return postage is enclosed. There is no exception to this rule.

Dr. Karel Hujer dovrgil 18. zari svou gedesatku.

Karel Hujer je profesorem astronomie a jaderne fysiky na universite v Chattanooga ye SpojenYch statech a reditelem tamnej gi observatore Astronomie byla, ode davnYch dob zdrojem rozjimani, miru a ztigeni duge. Kdo s pokornYm srdcem studuje beh nebeskYch teles, nemtZe neZ v filasu se zastavit nad velebnosti vesmiru, jeho -zakonitosti a souhrou a zpivat s davnym Zalmistou: "Nebesa vypravuji slavu Boha silneho a di to rukou jeho obloha zvestuje. Den po dni vyna g i fee a noc po noci ukazuje urneni jeho."

Je to snad jen prekonanY idealismus minulYch dob, jak to tvrdi marxieti komuniste? Lze snad existenci vesmiru a Zivota v nem vysvetlit bez pusobeni nadpfirozene moci? Je opodstatnene tvrzeni oficialni sovetske vedy, ze Zivot je ye svem prapodatku jenom vYsledkern komplexnich vibraci fysikalnich dasteeek ye strukture atomti? Nikoli, prohlag uje Karel Hujer: "Moderni fysika zjevila poznatky ktere Upine prekonavaji a ru gi materialistickou predstavu, ze hmota je primerniho yYznamu pro eloveka. Podle nazoru vehlasnYch astronomil a fysikti na Zapade je prapftvod Zivota a vithec poeatek fysikalniho vesmiru v nezbadatelnYch zahadach."

Dnes mono pozorovat i mezi vYznamnYmi sovetskYmi prirodovedci tendenci, hledat nematerialistickou, duchovni predstavu vesmiru.

Takto Karel Hujer neustava hlasat duchovni objevy a poznatky, ktere mu skYta jeho nadzemska veda a prorocky varovat pied naseldky zneuZite yedy a zvracene politiky pro v gecko lidstvo.

"Vg e co v clejinach kdy. ziskalo trvalou hodnotu a skuteene se stale ja.drem ()dy ke kultury, melo svfij zadatek v miru a tichu duge."

Strediska zapadni civilisace, kterYmi Karel Hujer putoval, davaji mu mocne oodnety k rozjimani. Predev gim je to Rim se svymi katakombami a troskami Fora.

S.P.J.S.T. Calendar There has been some objections raised to the publishing of Lodge Calendar announcements by some of our Lodges.

Especially true was this with Lodges who never have paid ads in the Vestnik, while others regularly place paid advertisements of their special events.

There were many ads sent in by individuals from lodges, from band leaders, and others which created misunderstanding.

From now on, only an authorized Lodge officer's announcement will be honored,. The band leaders should send ads directly to Mr. Jos. F. Holasek, publisher, and make arrangements with him as to rates, etc.

We trust this policy will eliminate the confusion. Thanks.
