Kdy2 to tak Clo y & z blizka pozoruje tak se musi skuteene divit, Ze zloeinnosti neni jeale vic net je. nekterYch mestech tiji lide jako zvirata v kleci, a mlade2 chodi po ulicich jako v omamenem stavu, hledaji kam a co by delali s volnYm easem. Fakt je,

Ze ptedeMe a nynej g generace dospelYch nehledi a nedbaji na to, aby jeji deti meli gikovne htigte, parky, a aby vithec meli jak se path ovzduti na dobrou vychovu. Takove lide hledi jen laby sam sobe si udelali pohodli a na mlade2 A:thee nedbaji. Nechteji obetovat svYch pen& a easu aby mlardek mela nee° pekneho, gikovneho. K tomu se doda vyhYbani tkoly, nedostatek domaci discipliny a neteenost rodien vlibec, a pak se situace stale a stale zhorSuje, jako ,nevyleeitelna rakovina, a zda se, Ze autority' a dospeli sarni nevedi si rady.

Vtibec se to neda srovnati.

Informaeniellanky DobSiva.ni araeriekeho zapadu JeSte zaeatkem devatenacteho stoleti byla zeme mezi tekou Mississippi a TichYm ocenanem rozsahlou divoeinou, navAtevovanou jenom ztidka hrstkou badatelti nebo zvete. Konec tehot stoleti znamenal zakoneeni hnuti, jakemu nebylo rovno v ptedchozich dejinach sveta.

Dobyti zapadu bylo jedineene jak po strance temps, vetAino osad byla zalotena v letech 1830 a 1890 — tak i z ohledu na lidi, kteti se o osidlovani zipadnich konein zaslotili. Na rozdil od. mnoha kolonisaenich hnuti pod zakti tou vladni s10 v tomto pkipade o osazovani zapadni easti Spojenych start& jednotlivei, ktere tam lakala vidina lepAiho tivota, a kteti pevne veiili, 2e vlastni pracovitosti a vytrvalosti podati se jim ptemeniti vidinu ve skuteenost.

Prvni prilkopnici museli zdolavati neseetne ptekatky. Ut saina testa byla svizelna, trvala cele mesice, ba i roky. Prvni odvatlivci pouSteli se do neprozkoumanYch konein korimi, nebo i peSky. Jini palmation siricnimi lodemi. NejoblibenejS1 zpilsob cestovani byl vSak: na, plachtou krytych a koinni taenYch vozech, ktere se lety staly takfka symbolem pohranieniho tivota arnerickeho. Cele rodiny nalotily vegkery sytij majetek na tyto oozy a pounely se do neznamYch konein dalekeho zapadu.

Bez ohledu na to, jak primitivni byly nebo nebyly jejich cestovni prosttedky, jednu vec tito lido- vkly spoleenou: v2dy si museli cestu teprve raziti. Muse11 se prosekavati hlubok3imi lesy, pfeji'Z'deti vysoke hory, kfi2ovati prerie a vyprahle lany polopouni. V5ude &halo nebezpeei. Nepratelske indianske kmeny mohly je kdykoli napadnouti, a nejeden odva2nr prilkopnik stal se obeti inclianskeho gipu. Prilditost k dopineni potravin a vody se vSude nenaskytla, smrt hladem nebo Zizni nebyla proto vyloueend. Kruta zima, mrazive deSte, telesna vyeerpanost a mnohdy nemoc pfimely nejednoho odva2livce, aby se vzdal Zivotniho snu a vratil se z cesty s neporizenou.

Prvni prilkopnici byli obyeejne Zivici se prodejem ko'ZeSin sveho lovku, a koeovni obchodnici. Vraceli se do obydlenYch krajti se zpravami 0 bohatstvi zapadu v dobe, kdy na vYchode byla jiz vetaina dobre pudy zabrana.

Aekoliv priliv Pristehovalca do Kalifornia dosahl rozmera povodne prave v dUsledku honby za zlatem, bylo jegte nekolik einitela, ktere k nemu ptispel v pozdei gich letech. Dobudovani transkontinentalni ieleznice usnadnilo farindram a pestiteltim dobytka na stredozapade posilati sve produkty na trh na vYchode a povzbudilo tak dal gi osazovani pady. Homestead Act z roku 1862, nabizejici velke laxly pady kaZdemu, kde se na nich usadi a bode je obdelavati, byl take vzpruhou pristeboIalettvi do fidce osidlenYch krajin zapadu.

Koncem devadesatYch let byly jiZ podobne kraje vzacnosti. Zinizelo pohraniei, skoneila jedna epocha Zivota zeme.

Prakopnici zanechali na americkem zpilsobu Z'ivot nesmazatelne stopy.

I3ENEV OF' THE STATE OF TEXAS FO ED 1897

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

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK The Attorney General of Texas, Waggoner Carr, has been saying much lately on the problem of the rapidlyrising crime rate in Texas, particularly those crimes committed by young people. It seems a certain increase in crime can always be justifiably attributed to the increase in the number of people, juveniles included. This same rule has been applied to sudden increases in air traffic accidents and crashes: more airplanes, more crashes More people, more crime. More automobiles, more auto accidents, and so on.

• • However, the Attorney General points out that juvenile crimes are increasing way out of proportion to the normal in3rease in population, and at a much greater rate than those crimes committed by other age groups. He cites facts and figures to back up this assertion. It appears the Attorney General is correct. Law enforcement people at all levels seem increasingly concerned about the mushrooming juvenile crime rate.

Actually, if you have ever seen the squalid living conditions in some of our larger cities, particularly in the East, the unbelievable, almost uncivilized, semi-barbaric conditions that surround young people, it is really a wonder why the crime rate is not even larger than it is. Visit Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., New York City, and many others, and the sights you see will make you sick. It. will really cause you to stare in disbelief. You will wonder why and how humans could drop to such a level and live like animals. The simple fact is that each succeeding generation of adults do not concern themselves enough with the wants and problems of their offspring. AlmoSt all of their material wealth goes into "padding" their own existence, and the youth is left to fend for themselves. The parents, adults, and leaders of these communities have not seen fit to devote

HOEING YOUR ROW

How are you hoeing your row, my boy?

Say, how are you hoeing your row?

Do you hoe it fair?

Do yOu hoe it square?

Do you hoe it the best that you know?

Do you cut out the weeds as you ought to do?

Do you plant what is beautiful there?

For the harvest you know, Will be just wtat you sow; Are you working it on the square?

For the World will look as you hoe your row, And will judge you by what you do; So, try for first prize, Though your courage it tries, For the harvest depends on you. some of their $$, sweat, and time to creating a livable, wholesome atmosphere for their children. One evil then complements another, and the cancer of truancy, lack of discipline, and parental irresponsibility spreads, and continues to spread at an alarming rate.

The parents and adults themselves seem to be caught up in this struggle for existence.

What a contrast, what an unspeakable difference, between such conditions and the atmosphere created by an active SPJST Youth Club! It is almost sinful to mention the horrendous delinquency of New York and the work .pf our SPJST youth clubs in the same breath. How lucky! How fotunate our youngsters are! Sometimes, the activities of our youth seem a little corny, trite, and a waste of effort and time, but we should not forget that what 'appeals to us adults may not necescarily appeal to a freckle-faced, tousleheaded kid of 12. It's simple: you're an adult and he's twelve. You're not supposed to like the same things.

One of the most accepted truisms in the world today is, 'an idle mind is a devil's workshop." This is true of people of all ages, but it is especially true of young people, not yet out of school and having the responsibilities of making a living foisted upon them. Practically all of the misdeeds committed by youngsters today are those in instances where "we didn't have anything to do; no place to go." How often have you heard that? They have a lot .of surplus energy. If that energy is spent doing useful and beneficial things for their community — under capable parental guidance — that's well and good. But if that energy is directed toward clestruCtion of property and asinine pranks, then their talents are being wasted. It is a known and established fact that in cities and communities where there are supervised (I don't really like this word (here) activities for young people, the 'rate of serious crime shows a marked and proportionate decrease.

• A youngster who is a member of an active, robust youth club in our SPJST 'has a better-than-even chance of never being involved in serious crime.

In fact, any young boy or girl who participates in wholesome group youth activity is not apt to get into serious trouble. Their talents and energies are channeled into useful and wholesome channels. Understand, it's not a guarantee, but it's pretty good insurance.

Nothing could be more beneficial than a youngster belonging to an active SPJST youth club. See that your child becomes a part of one right away. If your lodge doesn't have one, and there is even a slight chance of one being formed and successful, then it can be openly stated and charged that the adults of that lodge are overlooking Something very important -- their children. Where there are adults there are bound to be children. Does your lodge plan all its activities with only

V STNf ft

the adults in mind, or is there something there to attract the younger set?

I recently heard an adult member say, "it's been like this for many years, and we've done all right, and there's no need for a youth club." That smacks of selfishness with a liberal sprinkling of ignorance of the needs of youth.

Fact of the matter is, that .particular lodge is NOT doing all right. The, younger ones don't go to the meetings because there's nothing there for them.

O. situation is ripe for action, but the adults are not thinking of the future. Is this attitude understandable or excusable?

• • Recently when. State District Judge Evetts spoke at the Seaton Grand Opening, we feel that he also had in mind the good that comes from our SPJST work with the youth when he referred to the apparent lack of any criminal element among our SPJST youth. Certainly our youth clubs provide a wholesome outlet for the energies of our youth. Our youth leaders and their assistants need even more help and cooperation than they are getting; they have a thankless task — a hard and tedious one. It is indeed sad when the youth leaders, struggling to put something over with the children, meet with gross indifference on, the part of the parents. Attendance and support of our youth functions need much more improvement. Without parental support, the task becomes hopeless. No. the world is not going to —; if it is, parental neglect is helping it to get there. Not so long ago in this scolumn, we mentioned the fact that of all juveniles confined in our state penal institutions, two-thirds were from families where the home had been torn asunder by separation, divorce, or just plain parental neglect. Hence, parental delinql uency is a term as much in order as is juvenile delinquency.

Hejny alluded to this article at the Seaton opening, and James Janousek, presently attending

Wednesday, August 21, 1963 the University of Nebraska in Lincoln, made reference to the "Nebraska Czechs" in his latest letter to the Vestnik. Ommitted here is a color picture sof four people in colorful Czech costumes in the Wilber area, which was on the front page of that particular issue. We here in Texas have similar festivals throughout the state that we are justly proud of. We should continue supporting these 'celebrations and festivals, whether {}hey be in Dallas, Granger, Houston, or other places Where they are held. — Ed.) • "We Welcome You" SMALL TOWN IN NEBRASKA PRESERVES CZECH HERITAGE Anyone who thumbs through the current telephone directory in the small town of Wilber, Nebr., will note that it, is well sprinkled with such names as Broz, Bruha, Dvorak, Haviranek„ Kastanek, Kuhovec, Maryska, and Wanek. These names quickly reveal that Wilber is run by, for, and in the tradition of Czechoslovakia.

Everywhere one turns on Main Street he's likely to receive a `:vitame vas" ("we welcome you - ) from the friendly people of the town. • Wilberites love polkas played at a Saturday night wedding dance. They dine on such mouth-watering dishes as idutck, dumplings, and sauerkraut, accompanied with prune wine.

In such surroundings, it is only natural that an organization called Nebraska Czechs, a non-profit corporation, was formed more than a year ago for the purpose of preserving the heritage of the town.

A beginning in this direction was held last summer when Wilber staged its first annual Czech Festival, a 2-day celebration during which parades, speeches, dances, music, and many other events were 'held. The festival was repeated on August 3-4, and as an added attraction there was a contest to choose the "best-looking Czech girl in Nebraska." Each candidate must be single, from 16 to 21 years old, have some Czech heritage, and wear a Czech costume of her own creation.

Wilberites, from the grocer to the plumber, enjoy dressing as their forefathers did. Visitors to the festival see a spectacular display of color in bright red skirts, black and red 'vests, and fancy aprons.

Minister Sets Stage Credited with beginning the annual celebration is the Rev. J. F. Balzer, of Lincoln, Nebr., a former minister of the First Congregational Church in Crete,

Wednesday, August 21, 1963 Nebr.

"The Rev. Mr. Balzer mentioned several years ago that the Czechs of our country should do something to preserve our heritage," said Joe Vosoba, a farmer state legislator, "This festival was just the be,ginning. We have cl'ner long-range plans which we think eventually will help the *state govern I.( nt's program of encouraghag tourists to visit Nebraska."

The urge to preserve the Czedh tradition is spreading to the , young in the community.

"We already can see a change in our young fells," said Vosoba. "A few years ago, many of them would have shunned the idea of speaking the tongue of thei-= grandparents. Today they are proud to."

LODGE• 165, 'MOULTON Dear Readers and Writers, Here I come once again with a few lines. The weather is hot and dry. It's wonderful to be alive When you have to pull that 72m1,o. sack of cotton. Cotton pi kin' is coming to an end in our section and the farmers are satisfied. I love cotton boiling just like the old horses loved the harness.

Our last meeting was fairly well attended. The door prize went to Sister Julie Krejci. We have quite a few of our members on the sick list, so we offered a minute of silent prayer for their health. Our Brother Bill Mikulencak is confined to bed at his home for a couple of weeks due to a heart ailment. We wish you all a speedy recovery because we missed you folks at our meeting. Our next meeting will be again on the last Monday in August — August 26, at 7:30 p.m. Let's all try to

be there and help us plan for future progress and try to get some new members since our organizer is confined to bed. As the old saying goes, "Here today, gone tomorrow."

Before I end my letter I'd like to remind you of these few lines: I Shall pass this way but once, any good thing therefore I can do, or any kindness, that I can show, let me do it now. Let me not defer it or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.

Wouldn't this world be a brighter plate to live if we all would live accordingly?

Dear Brothers and Sisters: Ttse Youth Activity Day for District V was 'held at the Fort Bend County Fairgrounds in Rosenberg. It was a very lovely spot for the day. There was a building to eat in, a building to serve drinks in, a building to serve food in, and a building for the Talent Contest.

We had a delicious meal of barbecue with all the trimmings; mouth-watering desserts followed. I want to thank all of the wonderful cooks.

After everyone ate, the meeting started and little Duchess Jo Ann Heiman led us in the Pledge of Allegiance.

We tLen found that our wonderfully talented Editor, Brother Nick Morris, has another great talent — that of voice. He sang a beautiful "Star Spangled Banner" for us. He had not even rehearsed for it. He was substituting for Freddie Bari, another great voice, who had to go to a rehearsal at the Cork Club in Houston where 'he will take part in an entertainment program.

Brother Edward Marek, President of the Supreme Lodge delivered a very impressive speech to us. We were very happy to have Brother Marck with us.

Brother Joe Hejny was unable to be with us; we hope to see him soon, however.

After Brother Jarda Cerny introduced the judges, the talent began.

All of the children were darling, and I am sure the choices were hard ones for the judges, While they were trying to make their decisions, Lodge 88's Reseda Dancers put on a remarkable performance for us. That was the first time I had ever seen the Beseda ,danced and I was very impressed. It looks like such fun, too!

In the State of Nebraska, they are billed as "Nebraska's Tops." They record regularly; in fact, public demand made it necessary for this band to take time out to record exclusively.

CZECH CHORAL GROUP OF LODGE NO. 84, DALLAS Dear Readers: The Choral Group was very proud to read in the August 7th issue of the 'Vestnik so many nice compliments from the different lodge reporters and also the , editor. We thank you all for your kind words.

We are now looking forward to our participation in the American-Czech Festival at the State Fair of Texas, October• 6, 1963. We plan a selection of many of your favorite Czech melodies.

We also plan to have available for purchase our record album, "Golden Czech Memories."

I wish to bring to the attention of all the members that the next meeting of the Choral Group will be August 23, 1963 at which time we will lay plans for the year. As the members

1i know our organization started in September of 1960 and we will begin our fourth year next month, Do be present to make known your preference for officers.

Sincerely, Mrs. Leonard J. Baleja ) 0 (--LODGE 117, ROBSTOWN Dear Brothers, Sisters, and Friends; My, how time files! Seems like just a few weeks ago we celebrated the opening of our new hall, the Robstown Community Hall, and next Sunday, August the 25th, we are going to have our first annual Barbecue and picnic. Cl aicken and beef barbecue with all the trimmings will be served at noon and at 5:00 supper will be served.

There will be entertainment of various sorts. At ni ght there will be a dance.

The Pavelka. Band will furnish the music and I'm sure it will be a very enjoyable occasion, so everyone, from far and near please come and enjoy yourselves.

Well, another crop and a very small one is behind us. The drought here gave us a good licking this year. Our cotton was very small and hard to pick. Cotton pickers were scarce as hens' teeth and the farmers had to machine-pick or strip it. Some of them harrowed it down and then picked it up with the new-type machine that picks it right off the ground. We are still hot and dry here.

Nueces County ginned only 38,400 bales to date and the harvest is about complete. The 1962 crop was 62,626 bales and that was considered a poor year, so you can see how much poorer the crop was t`-is year. But, I guess well juste have to wait 'til next year and hope for a better season.

This• is a little early, but hope that you members can remember and come to our next meeting which will be held the first Sunday in September which is Sept. 1st. It will be at the Hall, starting at 2:00 p.m. I urge everyone to please come because we will finish making preparations for our 50th Anniversary. And we will need a lot of help to put our celebration over, so everyone come and do 'your part. The celebration will be the 3rd Sunday in September, which will be the 15th.

So you see, the meeting will be very important since the plans will have to be completed.

As usual there will be a social after the meeting so you ladies bring the usual — pies or cakes, or whatever else you wish.

v tau's! it I see in today's Vestnik where my aunt Marie Slampa passed away and I want to extend my sympathy to all my cousins and their families. Rose Hackworth, I am a long lost cousin of yours and wanted to write to you but lost the address so please write again.

Will close for today and don't forget everyone: this Sunday the Hall picnic and then again the next Sunday be sure and come to the meting.

Fraternally yours, Mrs. Lillie Matejka., Dist. No. 1 Youth Director )O( (The following article was published in the July 11th issue of the Brownfield News-Herald. It concerns a loyal SPJST member and supporter, Sister Julie Bayer of that city. We are intitle and accompanying picture. — Ed.) NATIVE CZECH KEEPS INTEREST IN LAND

By Billie Norman, News Staff Writer Mrs. Julia Bolt Bayer, a native of CzeclIoslo yakia, has one consuming passion and that is to keep the customs iind history of her .homeland vivid for future generations of Czechoslovakian children who grow up in America.

Mrs. Bayer came to America with her family when she was thwee years old and the little group settled around Rowena and San Angelo where her parents lived until their death.

"Much of the information I have came about by listening to my parents, and other Czechs talk," said Mrs. Bayer. "But I keep in touch with an uncle and several cousins who still live in the old country and my information keeps growing."

Julia Bayei doesn't horde her knowledge about her native land — she passes it on to otl:er transplanted Czechs and their children through the Slavonic Benevolent Order of the State of Texas and she w rs also involved in work of the Order in California.

At the present she is working with a group of children on a CZeehoslovak program to be presented in Lubbock in August by the Order.

We will sing severni songs in Czech, including the "Blue Skirt Waltz," which by the way, was originally written in Czechoslovakia and was known as the "Red Skirt Waltz," said Mrs. Bayer. "I've never been quite able to figure why the valor of the skirt was changed," she .1(i•.ed.

Folk dancers in full Czechoslovak dress will add to the authenticity of the program. About 20 children born to Czech parents will be involved in the program, many learning a smattering of the Czech langua,ge for the first time.

"So many of our people know very little about the old country," explained Mrs. Bayer. "When we were working with the exhibits in California we had

V E STN I K

Wednesday, August 21, 1963

Set":: Mrs. Julie Bayer, disp'ays one of the dolls she uses to tell the story of her native Ilend to other Czechs and their Anierican-born children. The ,doll represents the Ba r term! Bride" and is authentically dressed in ribbons, braided flowers, and laced vest, to make a flag for Czechoslovakia and few people knew that it was white. red and blue." The Czech flag is formed of a white top, red bottom and a triangle of blue fitted into the left side. The blue was added in honor of Slovakia when it was added to the country and Czechoslovakia became a republic.

"Many people think we are trying to fool them into believing the people there still wear these elaborate dresses and continue with the long-ago customs when we present the programs," said Julian Bayer. We are only trying to show the history of the country and keep it alive for our children, just as

Wednesday, August 21, 1963 we in America do with the Pilgrims and early-clay settlers."

Mrs. Bayer stated life in present ,day Cze choslovakia was much as it is in America, with the same Western type dress being worn. Problems are there because of the type of government, but ideas, dress and manners display a heavy leaning toward American ways.

"English is such a hard language to learn," said Julia Boll Bayer. "Although I grew up here, I never had anyone at home to help me speak the new language, therefore I was well into my teens before I could speak distinctly. I didn't spend nearly so much time on learning the Czech language."

Mrs. Bayer has many interests outside, her love for Czech, history and manner of life, but they have been developed during the past 10 years in order to help her adjust to a personal tragedy.

"When I first went to California I thought I was througsl with living," said the lively grandmother. "Then I decided I was too young to wither on the vine and a series of courses at the YWA created so many hobbies. interests and activities that I had to limit my time in each one to get around."

"You would think a woman my age living alone would be bored stiff — and I guess I should be — but there are far too many things to do for me to become bored, ever," laughed Julia Bayer. "I have always been a great reader, finished Shakespeare by the time I was 15, but now my reading is limited to magazines, many of them Czech publications. Not enough time in my day for everything."

Mrs. Bayer has served as housemother of girls working at the Yellowstone National Park, at the YWA ar other places and each place has added to her understanding of people and their attitude toward life. This has kept her aware of the world around her and added to her enjoyment of living during the past 10 years when she thought life was over.

It was during the early part of these 10 years that she became so immersed in her Czechoslovak work. This has grown through the years until many people depend on her for information about that country.

"I would love to go for a visit — maybe someday I will," mused Julia Bayer. "My uncle keeps writing to invite me for a visit — perhaps that will be the climax of all my years of study-

Youth Section ATTENTION: DISTRICT IV YOUTH AND PARENTS The time has been set for our District IV Meeting, Sunday, August 25th, at the VFW Hall, 34th St. and Avenue N, Lubbock, Texas. We are hoping to have a good crowd out.

Each lodge has received copies of the contests for 1963. So, in order for me to have my program worked out I must know if any Lodge will have a Queen in Contest No. I. Please inform me at once so I could prepare the prizes for this contest. This year the winner will go to the State Contest.

Contest II is our talent contest We can have 14 through 16, and 17 through 21 to represent their district in State Contest. So, each lodge try to have an entry in all these age groups. In order for me to have prizes for these entries I must have your names and ages before our meeting. We will not have cash awards this year; they must be gifts or trophies. I hope I don't have to dissapoint them, because I want to present them at our meeting, instead of by mail, like last year, because I didn't know who would be in any of the contests, and it will be unfair to the youth if they all can't get their gifts at once; Refer to your contest rules and please let me hear from all ten Lodges soon!

I'm still working on the Craft Contest, but it will include all ages, and will consist of sewing, embroidery, crochet work, leather work, wood work, painting, hobby kits, air planes, boats, etc. There will be first, second, and third prizes in each age group 6 thru 9, 10 thru 13, 14 thru 16 and 17 thru 21.

These crafts must be displayed at our district meeting by 11:00 a.m. Be seeing you August 25th!

RAYMOND PARMA A REAL BOLL PULLER

Young Raymond Parma proved to himself that he could pull several times his weight in cotton a few days ago.

Your editor caught up with young Raymond on Monday, August 12th, pulling cotton with other members of his family on the farm of his uncle, John F. Parma, of Route 2, West, on the Cottonwood road.

The previous Wednesday, August 7th, Raymond set a new record for himself by pulling 479 lbs. of cotton (not larked) in a regular 8-hour day, with water breaks, a few rest periods, and almost an hour for lunch. His uncle John summed it up this way: "When he goes, he goes."

Raymond weighs 71 pounds. (We weighed him on the spot.) He is 12 years and 10 months old. His parents are Mr. and Mrs. John H. Parma, Box 43, Birorne, Texas. He is a member of SPJST Lodge 6, Cottonwood.

(We are probobly "asking for it," but we'd like to hear from other boys, under 15, who have pulled more cotton in a regular 8-hour day than Raymond. If possible, enclose a close-up picture. If the cotton was "picked", that should be stated, because there is a big difference between the two. — Ed.) )0(

I was born August 19, 1946; in 1952 I became a member of SPJST Lodge 66.

Some of the youth have indicated they're not very happy because my sister and I win so many things, because they think it is given to us, but I have news for them: we work very hard to get what we do get. We enjoy doing it, because each day we learn something new.

To those who would like to have many honors like my sister and myself, I will say that you must work hard -- even when it looks, as (if the world is coming to an end, and one day you will achieve your goal as I have in the past four years.

I must close for now but don't forget: keep working and keep your chin up. Also a reminder to members of Lodge No. 66 about our trip to Six Flags Over Texas on August 25. Until then be careful and May God Bless you all.

How many of you will plant bulbs this fall for next spring's fancy blooms? Those, of you who wilk I am sure, would like to see better than average results, and with a little work and some planning now you can have Tulips, Hyacinths, Narcissis, Anemones Crocus and many others that will be the envy of every passerby.

The secret of fancy .blooms is in the proper planting of your bulbs and soil preparation. The best way to start is to select a well-drained spot for your planting and once you have decided where you will plant your bulbs I would start by digging out at least six inches of your topsoil and pile it to one side of your planting bed. Then dig out six to eight more inches of the soil in your flower bed and pile it on the other side of your planting bed so as not to mix in with your top soil. Now return the top soil to the bottom of your bed.

If you have made compost during the summer you will want to add about two inches on top of your soil. If you do not have compost use a good grade of commercial bulk food at the rate of 3 to 4 lbs. per square of your bed.

A square is a space containing 100 square feet or 10 by 10. On top of the commercial bulb food I would spread 3 to 4 lbs. of good bone meal. Work this all well into the bottom soil. NOW, in the bottom of your bed after you haVe thoroughly worked this in you can add another six inches of the soil you took out of the bottom of your bulb bed and work it thoroughly so it will be loose and porous.

Bulbs like a well-drained soil, so if you have added compost to heavy soil or commercial fertilizer you should add some sharp sand or light gravel to keep it porous. If your soil drains naturally you have nothing to worry about, but bulbs don't like muddy soil and manure, because manure 'usually burns

VASTNIK them, biit it can be used if it is properly dehydrated.

Now for the proper planting of bulbs most of us have gotten in a hurry to plant our bulbs and plant them too late, too shallow, and the results we get are short stems, poor flowers, and poor colors, so the proper planting is the secret of those bright colors: long stems and large blooms.

We will take them up one at a time ;for proper depth and spacing. First, the most planted bulb is Tulips. These should be spaced 6 to 10 inches apart and from 6 to 8 inches deep; a happy medium would be about 7 inches. At this depth we have always had fine results. This will place the bulb in the well-prepeared soil where it will feed itself during the winter and burst out in its glory in the early spring. Next are the Daffodils or Narcissus. They will expect the same treatment as outlined for Tulips. Next in line are the Anemones, a fine flower and easy to grow but planting depth is usually around three inches. 'So, for your Anemones your soil preparation should be six to 8 inches deep, with your fertilized soil not less than three inches below the top of your planting bed.

Next is the Crocus andMuscari bulbs; these 'require the same depth as the Anemones. Dutch Hyacinths require the same treatment as do Tulips.

Location of your bed. All spring flowering bulbs named above like a semi-sunny location, matt the north and east side of your home should be avoided, particularly the north side, because it is definitely not a good . bulb bed location. They may be planted near i desidious trees, since they will get plenty of sun before the trees develop their spring leaves. Now, if you plant your bulbs not later than November 1st as outlined above you should have flowers that will be a joy to behold, and if you plant at the depths specified you should have flowers again next year from the same bulbs by propor fertilization during the fall the following year. ) 0 (-Austrian Doe Asks Wives to Make Men Grow Beard Vienna -- Dr. Dora Fricke has called upon Austrain women to make their husbands grow beards this fall as pro tection against flu and pneumonia.

GASOLINE TAX REFUND CLAIIWS, DUE By SEPTEMBER 3e College Station — Farmers and ranchmen are reminded that claims for the Federal Gas Tax refund must be submitted before September 30, says C. H. Bates, farm management spe cialist, Texas Agricultural ExtensiOn Service.

This refund is on the four cents pet gallon excise tax paid on gasoline and diesel fuel used by operators on their farms during the period July 1, 1962 to June 30 says Bates. He explains that this refund has no connection with the claim for refunds Sent to the State Comptroller's office.

The gasoline used on an operator's farm by custom contractors is also eligible for the refund, points out Bates, but fuel used in highway travel is not.

The special postcard form, 2240. is the proper one to use to submit fuel claims, says Bates, and they have been mailed to operators wlho reported in (1962. New farmers and those who have not received the Form 2240, may obtain them from the office of the county extension agent or the area offices, Internal Revenue Service, he says.

Bates reminds that claims are sub ject to audit, just as other reports submitted to the Internal Revenue Service, and records should be kept to support refund claims. The specialist emphasizes that the deadline for reporting claims is September 30. ) 0( HOW YOU CAN AVOID LIVING LONGER Would you like to exit from this earthly prematurely? It's easy!

The present production is 15 million hectolitres.

Czechoslovakia is building SeVeil new' beer breweries and malt (houses. N.1 0,,t of them are being constructed in Slovakia. Other breweries are being re- • constructed and modernized. Small, breweries have been closed. Instead of the 330 in 1945 there are now only 140, which have an average yearly capacity, of 100,000 hectolitres.

The transition to agricultural largewale production, which fecilitates the planting of better barley on bigger lanes has been important for the development of beer making.

The quality of Czedheslovak hops which are also exported in large quantities, determines the price on the world market.

The largest and best-known brewery Is the Prazdroj (Urquell) brewery in.

A proud partner of Prazdroj is "Budvar" in Ceske Budejovice and "Staropramen" one of the biggest breweries in Prague.

The Prague brewery was the first in Europe to introduce transportation of beer in tank lorries.

Wednesday, August 21, 1963 NEVER OUT OF STYLE Fishing modes and equipment change but the basic pleasures of the sport are constant. Retreat from usual surrounaingt enjoyment of nature, challenge of man over fish, companionship of friends and family — these pleasures are as valuable today as they were a century ago.

A man enjoys getting up in the quiet, pre-dawn innocence, donning old overalls and sagging hat and stepping onto the river bank or lake side in time to hit the rascals before the first soft sun rays twinkle on the water. In a setting of cool green and awakening wildlife noises, he can see some troubled situations in better perspective than he did back home. But when he feels a strike, all his responsibilities are momentarily lost in the piscatorial world at his feet.

Or a guy sometimes likes to wait until the Saturday sun is climbing high to round up the wife and children, hook on the boat and head for the open water. The gay crew, sporting sailor caps and picnic baskets, roars off for a day in the outdoors. There will be plenty of hook-pricked fingers and noisy moments of fellowship, and possibly a full stringer of fish to fry on an open fire.

And a fellow revels in setting out With a veteran fishing buddy, boat and tackle in tow, to put some notches on his rod and brags in his repertoire.

In this comfortable company, he enjoys the challenge of giving his finny targets the fight bait at the right time and playing them in.

Regardless of the type of fishing solitary, family, buddy — the pleasures of the sport await a man on the inland rivers, creek banks, lakes, and the coastal waters of the bays and Gulf.

by Ford engineers made him a Worldwide figure. In 1914 Ford introduced into his plants the eight hour day with a minimum daily wage of five dollars; also, he introduced a profit-sharing plan for his employees. After the unsuccessful mission of the Ford Peace Ship, he used his plants to manufacture equipment for the U.S. government during World War I. He served as president of the Ford Motor Company until 1919, when he was succeeded by his son Edsel; upon the latter's death he again became president in 1943 and served until his death in 1947. The Ford Foundation, a philanthropic and educational organization, was established by Henry Ford and his son Edsel B. Ford in 1936. ) 0 (— ABOUT FARM CHEMICALS

By Fredrich J. Stare, M.D. There is great confusion in the public mind today about the use of agricultural chemicals. This confusion is understandable because rumors and halftruths have filled many people with doubt about the reasons and desirability of using these chemical tools.

Some people I've talked with seem to take the attitude: "We used to get along very well with out chemicals.

Why don't we settle the whole question by going back to doing without them?"

Well, there are many errors in that argument.

First of all, agricultural chemicals have been in use for centuries. However, they are used more extensively today because our need is greater.

Secondly, it depends on what you mean by getting along. No serious, thinking person would wish us back to the days of famine, which is precisely what we would have without agricultural chemicals.

Then, the good old days which we remember so nostalgically, as Will Rogers put it, "ain't what they used to be, and what's more, they probably never were." It is well within our memory that half of all the apples we bought were wormy, that we cut off more of the ear of corn than we were able to cook, that we threw away a good part of every peck of potatoes because they were rotten. Our expectations on quality, in other words, are a great deal higher now than even a couple of decades ago. We expect every apple, every potato, every orange to be good — and it usually is.

Another important change may be unrecognized by the city-dweller and that is the change to the big, one-crop

27 farm. As our population increased, it became more economical for a farmer to turn his land over to the production of one crop, for example corn.

This single-crop farming has created a banquet table for the insects who pour into the fields in such prodigious numbers that the only way to cope with them is chemically. If you wait for their natural enemies to catch up with these insect marauders the crop will be destroyed and the farmer Wip ed out. The ultimate result would be a food shortage and very high prices.

The benefit that we derive from agricultural chemicals far outweighs the risk involved in their use. This risk is minimized by research, testing, legislation and education. Nevertheless, it involves responsibility on the part of the users.

It is the same sort of responsibility we all assume When we drive a car or, . for that matter, use a pair of scissors.

Unless we are willing to assume responsibility, we cannot have the benefits. In this case, the benefit is in hav -ingthequaiyndqualtof dwe need today. By tomorrow there will be more people to feed and the need to use agritultural chemicals will be even greater. )G( THE TOOTHBRUSH AND YOUR TEETH For civilized man, the toothbrush does for the teeth what raw, coarse and massaging foods did for the teeth of primitive man.

It removes the food debris in which the acid-producing bacteria of the mouth, thrive.

The function of the toothbrush is to clean the teeth and to help maintain the gums in a healthy condition..

There are three conditions that must exist i'n the mouth before decay results. These include bacteria, easily fermentable foods like sugars, and sheltered places which maintain the food .debris long enough for the bacteria to work on the food and build up acid of sufficient strength to attack the toth enamel.

The duty of the toothbrush is to interrupt these conditions by removing sugar residue before the decay-producing acids can be formed from them.

Another function of the toothbrush is to prevent deposits of debris, known as tartar or calculus. For a few hours, these deposits remain soft enough to be removed by the brush. But afterward, they become hardened to the ex-

v2s tent that a dentist's steel instrument is necessary to scrape them off.

If tartar is left to accumulate, the gum tissue becomes irritated. This can lead to serious disturbances in the gums and supporting tooth structure.

Dentists emphasize the importance of correct toothbrushing procedures to minimize injury to the gum tissues.

Often, vigorous or improper brushing may cause the gums to bleed, but dentists'say that there is no harm if this condition continues only a few days.

The tissues covering the gums will become toughened and thickened, just as calluses form on a hand doing hard labor. If, however, the bleeding persists from brushing, the condition should be checked by a dentist.

Brushing correctly is important.

Equally important is regular brushing.

It is the responsibility of parents to develop the habit of regular brushing after meals in each child so that regular brushing will become a natural pattern of his life. Check with your dentist concerning the proper size toothbrush and grade of bristle. Also

Weilne

change toothbrushes when they become too soft.

Let's face it, we don't eat the coarse, raw or abrasing foods of primitive man, so we have to brush our teeth.

Werkies daY; AttRUst 21, 19 RARE BIRD REPORTED IN VALLEY Rockport — An extremely rare bird paid a visit to Texas' Magic Valley and lost his life there, according to Game Warden Raymond Davee of Edinburg.

On July 9, two boys, Gregory Moodie and Gene Kelley, were out on their paper route in the southeastern section of Elsa. It was early in the morning When the boys found a strange looking bird dead beside the road.

Game wardens identified, the bird as a Jacana, a resident of Central and South America whop very rarely visit's Texas. They surmised that the bird had flown into telephone wires in the darkness and broke his neck.

Trie Jacana, sometimes known as "Lily-trotter," is built somewhat like a Ohore bird and has extremely long toes.

He is about 81/2 inches long with a deep rusty colored body and a blackish head and neck. The best field marks are the conspicuous yellow frontal shield on the forehead and the large, pale, greenish,. yellow wing-patches. On the elbows of the wing the bird has a short, very sharp, spur and when the mouth is opened there is a sharp spine, almost like a spear, exposed. During the fall seasons an occasional immature Jacana wanders into Texas, At this stage he is gray - brown above with whitish underparts and 'a broad white stripe over his eye. He is sometimes mistaken for Wilson's Phalarope but

vpaTIO the very long toes, the lemon-yellow wing patches and rail-like flight distinguishes him from any shore bird.

— Texas Game and Fish Comm. )0( Fever Fear: Many people fear tularemia (rabbit 'fever) but, actually, only a very small percentage of this rather rare disease in persons results from rabbit hunting. Flies constitute th,e greater menace in areas where the sickness is common. Ticks carry tularemia. Many game animals and birds, besides the cottontail, can be infected.

A person can eat a well-cooked rabbit that had tularemia, without risk. The main, precaution for the hunter is to make sure he has no open cuts or wounds when cleaning game of any kind.

Progress is , impossible without change; and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.
