PODPORA LIDS/COST BRA 19. ibERVNA (JUNE) 1963

OD REDAKCNNO STO KU Mnozi dosud neuvaaili, jak velikY znam maji debaty; jimiz mono ziskati: spravne a samostatne mysliti, nebati se projeviti sviij nazor, sve mySlenky, poznati smYSleni jinYch, a rozS'ititi svilj obzor vedomosti. vfibec. OvSem, jak jsme jiz psali, debaty musi bYti vecne, ne brzdit pokrok tadu, a maji nejakYm zpilsobem pfispeti zdaru a tspechu kadu.

Rozpravni metoda je zajiste neteirinejSi cesta k ujasneni vztahu yeei i lidi, otazky rozumove, mravni a spolkoye. VYmena nazorfi. jednotlivYch Clenfi radu umokAuje nekterY krAt rychlejg ke'Seni otazek.

• • 0 eem se da debatovat v tadovYch schtzich? Na g zivot je tak bohat problemy, piny v§elijakych zalektosti a udalosti, tolik vSeckeho &Mha na kazdaho,ze neni mokio, aby kaklY nas nnohl sam v sobe to zakti a usmerniti.

Je tieba slySeti Usudky jinYch, radou, pfesvedeit jinYch o omylu, a te'Z'ke a sloZite veci vysvetliti. INdy mame k debate nalehavy problem nagi a jeji pomer k na gi Jednote. Je to veledfileZ'ity problem, a pamatujme vkly zaeleniti a obsahnout nak mlade2 do vSech podnikt vageho fadu, pon e- vaft' bez jejiho zajmu a zaPoeitani v podnikach, se ohroktje budoucnost celeho kadu, eili cele Jednoty.

Jest radost a potaitelne kdYZ tak pozorujem snahu a obetavost naS'eho dorostu a jejich vedoucich. Zde musime ale troSku plisniti tech, kter.i nevenuji pozornost behem programu nagi mladek, ba i se davaji do horliveho vypraveni. a rozhovoru, 2e je jich sly'Set po cele sini. Je to otevi:end, prosta nezdvotilost! Nadev gem, je to gpatny priklad mladek, ktefi. se sna21, mnohokrat s jinYmi pfekalky, uspokojit poveselit posluchaee. KdyZ vidi, ze to a tam je hlasitY rozhovor a nepozornost, ztrati i oni zajem, trebas se daji i • do place. Moe easto se to stava, a Elia, se, Ze CeSi jsou na to nejhorS1, kdy2 tim nemini projevit jakoukoliv nezclvailost. Nevekim, Ze &Si jsou v tom pade nejhorSi. Vidime to i u ji-

nS7ch , ale to nedokazuje, ze jsme na to opravneni i my. Proste, nerna to byt! Piece jako mladi skolaci, bylo nam natizeno, jako zakladni pkedpis vei'ejneho chovani, v‘Zdy venovat tichou pozornost feenikovi, ba jakemukoliv pkedstaveni, i kdyk" se nam neeo v tom nelibilo. U nas to aspon tak bylo, ale mnozi na to zapominaji. "Dyt' je to jen mlade device neb mladY Koch"! Ano, ale ten mladik neb to mlada, dcerka lehko nezapomene kdy'Z dospeli tide otevfene hovorili pi:i bas:ni neb zpevu. Je to take drakliye pro jine ktefi se snak posleehnout co se dale, ale easto obvinenY den kona svojc dal, jako by na svete jineho nebylo krome jeho. Takovyeh lidi jest nutno v tom pade se zeptat: "Prosim vas, neruSi vaSemu rozhovu na g, program?"

BRATRSTVI Odhod'me ten kalich z nehoZ' moru dech se chvi, nechat' kolem jasne zyuei svatY pohar bratrstvi.

Jdeme-li jen k temUZ eili, yznet-ii stejnym srdcem chvi, vSak se najdem' v pravou pod jedinou korouhvi.

Kdo chceS hasit bratril svary, oeist' laskou vlastni hrud', utlum v sobe zlobne 'Zary, sam vkly snagenlivym bud'.

—Sv. .6ech

Proto, bratPi a sestry, pamatujme na svou zdvoiilost pii pofadani jakehokoliv programu, at' je ye vaSem fadu neb u mistniho PTA. Venujeme tichou pozornost, a tim IlkaZeme dobry klad dorostu, a pkipadne, budete rnoc sly'Seti co se jednalo neb co na pro- • grarnu bylo pfednekno. Toho gpatneho zvyku se musime zbavit!

• Je ye vaSem tadu t. zv. "pracovni kiln", totiz Glen, na ktereho se kladou vegkere odpovednosti a ruzna prace?

PRVNi OBYVATELE PRAHY Na.,§i slovan§ti predkove postupovali podle rek pomalu dal a dale do nitra tech i Moravy.

Na miste nynej,§1 Prahy bylo nekolik vesnidek starodavneho lidu domaciho.

Bylo je sotva videt mezi vysokYm pralesem.

Ale aZ sem k Velke rece (V1tave) dolehaly zvesti, Ze se od druhe velke reky (Labe) blili cizi narod. KdyZ pak se silnY zastup ciziho lidu dostal aZ do skryteho vYmolu na Manninach, vypravil se tam Vetrik, nadelnik dornaciho lidu, se etyrmi muZi, aby vyjednaval.

Polofili zbrane na zem a se vztyeenYmi paZemi kradeli k cizimu zastupu.

Slovanki hojovnici se nahrnuli zvedakolem nich. Vetrik se dilstojne uklonil pied jejich nadelnikem a promluvil hlasite ,aby v§ichni lid, usazenY v teto zerni od podatku sveta nema, strachu z va§ich zastupti.

Prod se ukrYvate v temnote lesa? Prod jste nepoladali nas o pristre§i? Marne dost masa i mleka."

VESTINIfx Nejprednej.§1 z cizincu odpovedel: "Zadarne od y es pirdy pro sva stada, nebot' se chceme v teto zerni usadit."

"Pohled'te, zvolal Vetrik, "zde les, mokriny a jenom tamto nak nevelke pastviny. Neni pro vas mist y v zemi naSich praotcti. Ale chcete-li bYti dobrymi sousedy, za Velikou iekou najdete pastvin dostatek. Tarn se usad'te a bud'te jako na§i bratri!"

Nadelnik cizinen chvilku premY§lel a potom odpovedel: "Moudra je tva fed, rula0 junaku, a libi se nam. Nepohrdame pratelstvim s ta,kovYmi lidmi. Proto ueinime smlouvu, Ze podilite levY breh, my pak na pravem brehu pasti budeme. Povez to svemu lidu!"

Na znameni smlouvy byl postaven na kopeeek velky kamen dole upevneny hlinou a kamenim. Stare§ina slovanske tlupy pokropil kamen krvi srneete pravil k Vettikovi: "Necht' Svantovit hledi na tebe i na mne aZ se rozejdeme! Kdybys poru gil smlouvu vez, Ze y§emocny Svantovit ji slySel!" SlovanskY lid se usadil! v Libni. Byli to prvni slovanSti predkove na pralske pude. )0 PRAHA Praha, srdce Evropy, bylo od pradavna chilelitYm strediskem nakho kontinentu. Zprvu bylo jejim jmenern oznaeovano toliko sidliAte mocneho kniZete, budovane uZ v desatem stoleti od kamene. Promenou let prijal knife hodnost krale a stal se nejprednej§im ze svetskYch kurfirtii, t. j. voliteln eisare, aby nakonec spojil v jedine osobe nejen vladu nad s yYmi pfivodnimi zememi, ale pridal k ni teZ oteZe panstvi, jeZ byvalo nazYvano svatou ri§i skou. Tim se charakter a yYznam Prahy naraz promenily. Sidli-li v Rime papef, hlava katolicke-ho krest'anstva jeho vladce v oboru duchovnim, pak mesto bajeslovne Libuk hostilo peedstavitele nej yy§§i moci svetske, co do hodnosti druheho eloveka sveta. takove centrum narostlo vYstavnosti, jakYch je poridku, je dfisledkem prave zminene vlastnosti. Jenfe Praha ma je§te jinou podobu s vednYm mestem, podobu, na kterou upozornil main' Josef Flihrich v prosinci 1827. Nejen celek, ale i east "stovelate" pripomenuly mu tvarnost Etnia; zdaf Mala Strana s Petrinem nevyvolavaji vzpominky na •ovinu Trastevere, prevf§enou Janiculem?

Ovkm — kil o se diva na Prahu z Masarykeva riabreli a -od vynsteni mostu Legii, ten site take vidi *doll reky a pahorky je obepinajici, jenfe ty

Vlevo tvori mu hranici fiva, §t'avami prolnuta zelen Streleckeho ostrova, vpravo je zahradila, mrtva hmota kamene, navrkneho do umeleho dtvaru Karlova mostu.

The Nominative and Accusative Cases: In Czech the nouns are declined according to their grammatical functions in the sentence. The nouns that have been listed in the vocabulary have been in the nominative case. The nominative is the case of the subject of the sentence or of the predicate nominative (after the verb "to be"). The nominative is also the case of a noun standing alone (unless in direct actdress, or understood as a part of an incomplete sentence).

The accusative case is the case of the direct object of transitive verbs. it tells what person or object is directly affected by the action of the verb. It

answers the ques

: Whom? Vhat?

The masculine and neuter hard nomis have the same form in the accusative as in the nominative.' The feminine nouns change the ending "a" to "ii" : Ex:. Masc. Inanimate Fem. Neuter kabat kniha roleko Nominative: kabat knihu Accusative: mieko 2. Sentences using the accusative case: Student ma kabat.

Student ma Student ma mleko.

The three nouns: kabat, kniha, and .m.lao are the direct objects in the three sentences and they are said to be in the accusative case. Note that kabat and allelic) did not change in 'form, but Imam changed to knihu.

—HERALD—

Postmaster: Please Semi Form 3579 With Undeliverable Copies to SUPREME LODGE SPJST, P.O. Box 100, TEMPLE, TEX

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK One of our current problems in the SPJST is how to get our youth interested enough to come to and participate in the various activities sponsored by the lodge. There are, of course, many ways of doing this. In today's column, however, we would like to focus your attention, on two matters, one of wbich is a way NOT to attract our young people.

It has been our experience, and your's too, I'm sure, to attend programs and functions put on by our youth, These youngsters, often at considerable personal sacrifice, work on, their .particular role several weeks, and they put their hearts and souls into it trying to please an audience.

One can't help but admire them very much for their efforts and their plain courage, even though they're not all Sarah Bernbardts and budding Leonard Pernsteins. Would YOU be willing to face an audience with your talents?

•

•

The point we're getting to is this: while these youngsters are scared stiff and trying oh so hard to please an audience, mostly of adults, one or two of those adults are busily engaged in an audible conversation that can he heard from one end of the hall to the other, completely oblivious to whatever is going on at the time. The young performer on stage hears and notices it; people seated around to offender look in his direction — all to no avail. Of course, the youngster is hurt and discouraged, and begins to wonder if it was all worth it. Wouldn't you be?

• • This is nothing but calloi:s rudeness, and a violation of the most basic rules of behavior that we were all taught in grammar school: don't talk while others are talking. Sit still and listen. You may not like what is being said, and you may be bored stiff, but the other, fellow has the floor, and you owe. him the courtesy of hearing him

TEAMWORK

We cay call it by this name or that: "TEAMWORK' or "cooperation"; together we 8tand, or by ourselves we fall flat; together, my friend, we're the Nation! Whatever we do, or whatever we plan, we can't stand alone, even the best of us; but must share our gifts with our good fellowman —. for we're only a part of the rest of us: out. Children are especially sensitive to this inattention. There are other ways of showing your disapproval of what is being presented. You might leave. although even that is considered in poor taste. You may tell the fellow "after the show" that he was rather longwinded. But if you talk, do it some olace so that you will not distract the audience from what is taking place.

• • Oftentimes, these talkers act as though the rest of the world did not even exist. Could they possibly consider such distraction an act of independence or individualism? If so, there are other ways, times, and places to 'demonstrate these traits. One is tempted to lean over and ask these offenders. the question that a nationally-known comic once proposed: "Pardon me, but are you two sure the movie isn't interferine; with your conversation?"

• • We all need to be reminded of this iatZ7cr serious transgression and violation of public etiquette. It is rude, and we should practice getting rid of the habit. Another thing V:-.at has come to our attention is that oftentimes the chairman or presiding officer has to an repeatedly for order and attention, and sometimes this is very difficult, if not impossible. In short, the adults have gotten out of control because they have forgotten, their manners, and we have witnessed several instances where proceedings were completely disrupted because loud conversation drowned

them out. This is a poor example for the youngsters.

I've heard it said that "Czechs are very bad about this sort of thing." I don't believe they're worse than other groups, but that doesn't justify it, nor does it mean that the situation cannot be improved. Brothers and sisters, let us practice common courtesy toward our fellow lodge members. Let us hear him out patiently, even when it taxes our patience, Let us be attentive and respectful toward those who are performing for us, or who have the floor. Let us set good examples for our young members, so that they may cultivate our good habits, and not practice a rude disregard for the rights of others. The next time a member wants to hold a conversation during a speech or program, tell him (or her) that you are interested in what is being said, and politely turn away. He may or may not get the idea.

• Incidentally, a number of people have asked that something be said on the above topic, because no one seems to want to offend anyone, but that if it's done tbrough this column it will be better taken. So be it.

•

Do you have a "work horsP" in your lodge, one who seems to do all the work; one upon whom tie members place responsibility after responsibility, task after task, until the poor guy or gal) is bent over with worry, work. and responsbility? There is a tendency here and there, of placing entirely too much of a burden upon one or two hard-working members, simply because they have accepted the burdens previously and turned in a fine job. Well and good, but don't Work a good horse to death. Even the stoutest of men and 'beasts have their endurance limitations. Don't overtax them with things others could do just as well. Oftentimes, such a person will keep accepting these added tasks for fear that

Wednesday, June 19, 1963 they won't get done, if he doesn't do them. To this I submit: if any lodge or organization is so dependent upon one or two individuals that no one else can do their jobs, then that lodge is flirting with eminent disaster. The first thing to-do is to stop taking on added duties and insist, that someone eke a,',sume them., and than see to it that. I hat person has the help and support that he needs. Don't let him flounder in deep water alone until he, too, drowns.

Support him and help him. Don't simply give him the responsibility without some independent, authority to act This isn't fair to the man. Give him a chance. Outline a set of objective ,-, or what you expect him to accomplish, and then let him exercise hi, own, judgement to a considerable degree.

One of the most foolish assignments given to anybod y is one that dishes out work and responsibilities by the barrelful, and then ends with, "but be sure and check with me before you do anything."

So, Mister Workhorse, pass around the cup of responsibility, and let others partake of its contents. The reason you are doing everything is because you have let the rest of the membership foist too much upon you. They knew you'd accept it. When you pas on or become gravely ill, heaven know s what will happen to your lodge. You've let them build the entire foundational structure on top of your shoulders! ).O ( ZAVODNY REUNION — JULY 7t The annual Zavodny reunion will be held. Sunday.

Dear Brothers and Sisters: On Thursday night, June 6, we played tne strong Temco nine, and we lost a close ball game by a score of 4 to 2. We were tied 1 to 1 until their top of the 7th inning when they had a walk, one runner reached base on a debatable error and then an unfortunate homerun made the score 4 to 1. We scored one more run in our half of the 7th. This was a very good game and a hard one to lose. Glenn Williams hurled a great game allowing only 4 hits, two walks and struck out 9 batters and for a change, he received good support afield. Larry Brennan turned in a very good game behind home plate.

Leading hitters were Glen Williams with 2 hits; Bob Spoor with a double; Albin (Bino) Vrana with, one hit, Leonard Drozd had a sacrifice and a walk and Larry Brennan had a walk. This concluded our first half of play in the strong C1ity Major League and we wound up tied with three other major teams for second place. In the Second Half, we will play in the "Gulf" League on Thursday nghts, a little weaker league, we hope, on Samuel Diamond No. 4. The other teams are Burt-Harris, Industrial Towel and Madewell Electris.

Last Monday night, June 10, we opened play in the Second Half in our Monday night League and we dropped another game to Madewell Electric by a score of 7 to 3. We gave up 7 runs in the first 2 innings, then we started to play ball. Seems that if we can get by the first and second innings, we are hard to beat, so we will have to figure out a cure for this situation in the future games. Batteries for the game were Frank Mach II and Glenn Williams pitching and Larry Brennan catching.

Leading hitters were Bob Spoor with 2 hits; Adolphe Janecka with 2 hits; Frank Mach II with a homerun; Leonard Drozd, one hit; Glenn Williams, one hit; Bernie Drozd, one hit; Larry Brennan had a walk and Paul Valenta had a walk.

Monday night, June 17, we played the Lenfor Chiefs, and on Monday night.

June 24th we play Friendly Chevrolet,

Wednesday, June 19, 1963 . at 7:30 p.m. and both games will be on Samuel Diamond No. 1. Thursday night, July 13, we play 'Industrial Towel at 7:30 p.m., first game, and Thursday night, July 20, we play Madewell Electric at7:30 p.m., early game, and these games will be at Sathuel Diamond No. 4.

Hot and dry — crops look good for all the dry season. Ye:, it's un.ch better than it was in 1925. That year was very bad and we made it the rough way; too much money went for feeding horses and cattle, but farmers in those days han more patience and courage to take it and grin. Today, people got to have everything their neighbor has. But the main richness and blessing is health.

Last Sunday we took us a day off and went to Wharton to visit our sonin-law and daughter Dorothy and their children. The clay was beautiful but hot, We enjoyed the trip and the visit with the Siegels, but we were oh, so glad when we got home. The crops in El Campo and Wharton are very good. We made the trip with our son, Harvey and his wife, Mary Ann, and their son, Randy Lee. This little fellow made the trip fine. Also our daughter, Nita, and her family and daughter, Willie Mae, and her family went along

VPSTNTK to spend the day at the Fred Siegel's horne.

Our member, Zat Johnson, of Moulton, is still confined to the Veterans Hospital in Houston. We hope he will come home healthy and happy soon.

Just a reminder to you dear members that our June meeting will be held on Monday evening at 7:30 p.m. June 24th. Please do not forget this date, and come to t .L-_is important meeting.

We have to decide what improvements to make in our hall.

The Frank Tilichs and the Gilbert Polniks are spending their vacation in Marble Falls, catching all the big fish.

We also noticed there were several different orchestras represented. Some •of these were Jimmy Brosch's Orchestra, Roy Krenek, Sil Krenek, and George Mac, l':{art of Hallettsville, and possibly many others whom we did not recognize on sight.

Saturday night, the Ray Baca 'Band played for the dance here at Lodge 88.

Wednesday, June 19, 1963 Good conversation rarely arises by chance. It comes about because people have prepared themselves beforehand.

They have thought about both , the poseible subject matter of their talk and about the people they are to meet.

Conversation rarely achieves a high standard if it is left to c h a n c e.

Thought and preparation are needed to make the most of the opportunities that come your way.
