FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK PATRIOTISM Patriotism. Much has been written and said about it. Everyone pretty well agrees that it consists of a great deal more than just waving the flag and standing up when the "Star Spangled Banner" is played or sung. In America, we like to describe our patriotism as the non-demonstrative variety, the subdued kind, with little or no real nationalistic overtones which have so often characterized that of some European countries. Nonetheless, patriotism IS a part of citizenship, but only a part. When we examine America's past and present laws and customs, we discover that the substance of citizenship is a balance of RIGHTS and RESPONSIBILITIES. This same balance of privileges and duties was the foundation upon which this great republic of ours was established and out of which our governmental system evolved. It was the means by which freedom of thought and action became the cornerstone of our democracy, and it is the only means by which fredom can be preserved.

• • Entirely too much is being voiced these days about rights, and not quite enough about duties and responsibilities. This task lies with the people themselves, its citizens. Individually and collectively, they have shaped the destiny of our nation's past and they will do so in the future. If you doubt

THE AMERICAN CREED I believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic, a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect Union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.

I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it, to support its Constitution, to obey its laws, to respect its flag, and to defend it against all enemies.

—Written by William Tyler Page, Clerk of the House of Representatives, in 1917; accepted by the House on behalf of the American people, April 3, 1918. the importance of one person's actions, consider just one facet of our duties as citizens: voting in free elections. The power of one vote has been demonstrated time and again. In 1884, for example, less than one vote per precinct in the State of New York would have elected James G. Blaine over Grover Cleveland as President of the United ;States. If one more backer of Charles Evan Hughes had gone to the polls in each precinct in Cali-

fornia, Woodrow Wilson would not have been elected. One vote in the Senate of the United States decided the fate of then President Andrew Johnson and spared him the fate of being the only U.S. President removed from office. There are many other examples of the importance of just that one vote.

Every citizen has an obligation to himself, his community, his state, and nation to be informed on important issues. Only through informed opinion can we take a wise course Of action.

Sometimes it is hard to separate fact from fiction, but as responsible citizens, we must constantly seek the truth. Also, as citizens, we should take an active part in our community affairs, religious, civic, and cultural. We should do Om part to encourage law enforcement and the prevention of crime and delinquency — of all kinds.

We should work to tree the community of those influences that weaken and degrade the lives of decent citizens.

Citizenship affords us many RIGHTS. We must be ever mindful that they can be preserved and enjoyed only by exercising our RESPONSIBILITIES. • • On August 1st, auto insurance rates in Texas went up 13.4 per cent on a Statewide average. Every insured motorist and every auto insurance firm was affected. The hike in rates caused much concern. Most of us have accepted it, but a lot of people are still very

Wednesday, October 13, 1965 unhappy about it and do not understand why it was necessary, or even if it was necessary. The reason is simple: auto insurance companies have been paying out more in claims than they have been receiving in premiums. Here are some figures: Accidents in Texas jumped 45.3 per cent from 1960 to 1964.

Average daily hospital costs were up 34 per cent. Liability claims paid increased 61 per cent. Collision losses were up as much as 30.3 per cent. Auto thefts are mushrooming. Juries have been awarding higher and higher judgments. All these add up to more insurance losses and thus, higher premiums.

What can the individual motorist do to keep rates down? First, be a careful, courteous driver; help reduce the rising accident rate. Help support vehicle law enforcement and traffic safety programs. When you leave your car, lock it! At least, take the key with you. A very high percent of drivel's whose cars were stolen invited thieves by leaving the keys in the ignition.

When called, serve on a jury and render a just verdict. When you have an insurance claim, ask only for what you are entitled. By our own actions, we, the drivers, determine what auto insurance rates will be. Lower rates require the efforts of every driver, everywhere.

This year's bumper crop of 18-yearolds could start a new marriage boom, but so far they don't seem to be rushing to the altar, according to the Institute of Life Insurance.

A nationwide explosion in the number of youngsters reaching the age of 18 has not sent marriage statistics skyward, even though. 16 is the most pop Nular age for marriage among American women.

Preliminary figures of the TJ. S. Division of Vital Statistics indicate that about 991,000 American couples were married during the first seven months of 1965. This was Only about 11,090 or one per cent more than in the same period last year.

Some experts in marital statistics think that the figures will probably rise further in the latter months of 1965, but any potential marriage boom may be delayed by several factors.

The war in South Viet Nam could be an important one. Marriage trends are traditionally affected by changes in draft rules, stepups in draft calls' and general wartime uncertainty.

Wednesday, October 13, 1965 Need for Education Technological developments in business and industry are a basic, longterm factor, since they call for more workers with education and training beyond the high school level. Some experts believe this may have been the main reason for lower marriage rates and the trend toward later marriages during the past decade or so.

The marrage outlook for this year's 18-year-olds may also be affected by an unusual gap in the relative number of men and women at the most marriageable ages. As a result of the huge increase in births after World War II, the nation's population of 18-year-old girls zoomed to over 1.8 million this summer, or almost a half million more than last summer. The Census Bureau estimates an equivalent increase in 18year-old men, but young men tend to marry several years later than girls.

For example, half of the nation's brides usually marry between the ages of 18 and 23, while half of the grooms usually marry between 20 and 25.

• • The nation had 1,624 legal reserve life insurance companies in business at the end of June, or 90 more than at midyear 1964, according to the Institute of Life Insurance.

The 1965 total included 1,470 companies owned by stockholders and 154 mutual companies. The 1964 total included 1,379 stock companies and 155 mutual companies. However, the mutual companies, owned by their polilarger than stock companies, and account for about 60 per cent of the insurance in force.

The number of life companies has increased by 565 during the past decade, with many new companies based in western, midwestern and southern states. The biggest recent increases were in Arizona, Missouri, Illinois and Oklahoma.

Every state has at least two life companies. Twenty-six states have 20 or more companies Texas, with 248 home-based companies, continues to have the largest number, although Texas' total has recently been declining. Arizona, with 172 companies, and Louisiana, with 112, rank next highest.

But New York, New Jersey and Connecticut companies have more life insurance in force than those based in other states.

Life companies' home offices are located in 381 cities, led by Dallas, with 119; Phoenix, with 81; Houston, 53; Chicago, 49, and New York, 44.

VESTN IC In 1960, 6 per cent of all the insured males in the U. S. were insured with fraternal insurance societies; 2 per cent of all the females; 3 per cent of ALL insured persons were insured with fraternals.

The mean amount of life insurance coverage carried by fraternals in 1960 (males) was $2,440; for women $910; for all persons insured with fraternals the mean amount of insurance coverage was $1,840.

MR. and MRS. JOE CILNY, SR. CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY Mr. and Mrs. Joe Cilny Sr., of Houston celebrated their Golden Wedding Anniversary in Houston on Aug. 22nd, 1965. The scene was the SPJST Lodge Hall, Lodge Stefanik No. 142, Houston.

They were honored by their children and their families.

The Cilnys were married Aug. 10th, 1915, in East Bernard. Moving to Houston in 1921, they settled in the Cottage Grove addition, where they resided for 25 years. In 1946, they moved to the Cypress area, where they are presently residing.

4 The Cilnys have three children: one daughter, Mrs. W. E. Brezina of Houstion; sons C. A. and Joe Jr. of Cypress; nine grandchildren, and five greatgrandchildren. The Cilnys are members of SPJST Lodge No. 142, as are practically all their children and their children.

CZECH CLASSES AT U.T. Your editor recently had the privilege of talking to a young man from West, Mr. Joe Karlik, Rt. 1, who is attending the University of Texas as a graduate student. Joe had come in to get extra copies of the Vestnik, and an interesting discussion followed.'

Joe is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Josef Karlik, Sr., of West. Joe got a BA degree in social studies, with a major in geography, from Sam Houston State Teachers College in Huntsville. He is majoring in geography at the University. In addition, Joe is taking first year Czech under Prof. Jan Perkosky, a fairly recent addition to the teaching staff at the University of Texas. There are 15 students in Joe's class, but there are other advanced Czech classes, the exact number Joe was not sure of. The students drill in some grammar, and speaking exercises. After he joined the class, he was happily surprised to find another West boy in his class, Larry Urbancvsky, son of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Urbanovsky of West.

Joe is interested in serving with either the United States Information Agency, or perhaps with the U. S. Foreign Service in the State Department after completion of his studies.

We were very impressed with the young man and we submit that a bright future awaits him. Various government agencies are very much in need of 'talents like Joe's, and his knowledge of Czech will certainly help him in applying for almost any job with the U. S. government. Joe is not a member of the SPJST, b4 t his grandfather, Louis Svacina is, and we thought this information on Czech studies at the University of Texas would interest the membership. We congratulate both these young men, and wish them all the luck in the world. — Editor.

The big night is Wednesday, Oct. 20th, with dancing from 8 to 12 p.m. Only a few tickets are left to be sold, and it is urged that members who want to come to this once-in-a-lifetime event get their tickets now. Some of Wayne King's famous Decca recordings are: Wonderful One, My Buddy, Blue Hours, Lydia, Carefree, Love Theme, Champagne Waltz, Smoke Gets in Your Eyes, Paradise, Stars in My Eyes, Josephine, If You Will Dream of Me, and Goofus. All proceeds from this dance wil go to the Youth Club swimming pool fund.

WAYNE KING

(p)

Wayne King's first steady job was with Del Lampe's orchestra in the Trianon Ballroom on Chicago's South Side. When owner William Karzas opened a companion place, the Aragon Ballroom, on the North Side, in 1927, Wayne was chosen to lead the band there. Though this was during the Roaring Twenties, the days of flappers, bootleggers, and the Charleston, Wayne gave the Aragon customers waltzes and more waltzes, and they loved them! He was an instant success, and a lasting one. He left the ballroom in 1936 to tour the country and found that his fame had gone before him. He played in the country's swankiest and

Wednesday, October 13, 1965 leading hotels. Radio soon followed, and for years, Wayne King's "Lady Esther Serenade" was a top favorite program. When he did return to Chicago, he was given a tremendous ovation. Chicago was proud of its own Wayne King. Wayne was born in Savanna, Illinois. During WW II he served three years in the Army, emerging with the rank of major.

Wayne King has recorded for RCA Victor and more recently, exclusively for Decca. From radio to records to television was only a matter of time.

The "Wayne King Television Show's; became an instant hit. Honors of various sorts came his way as a result.

His orchestra was one of those chosen to play at President Eisenhower's inaugural ball in Washington, D. C. For the man whose name became the nation's byword for fine dance music, such an honor was satisfying indeed.

It was a well-deserved honor which reminds us that the music of Wayne King will be heard and sung for many years to come, just as in the days of the thirties when the strains of "The Waltz You Saved for Me," was the romantic theme of the period. The latter remains his most famous composition.

Others include "Blue Hours," "My Buddy," "Wonderful One'„ and many others, all immortal and loved by all who love beautiful, lilting music. The Wayne King orchestra has recorded a total of about 13 twelve-inch LP albums, and a half dozen or so 10-inch LP albums.

Yet, in spite of all these successes and the activities of Wayne King Enterprises, Inc., now housed in a tall, Michigan Avenue skyscraper, the famed maestro who wanted to work on the railroad when he was a boy, still loves the farm and the outdoors. Proof cf this is his ownership of large farms at Roselle and Ottawa, Illinois, and a country home in northern Wisconsin.

While he is in the city, King stays at his suburban residence in Kenilworth.

Often has it been repeated that the public recognizes a top-ranking entertainer for what he does. In the case of Wayne King, the music maestro, it seems that everyone has heard of him as the man who made "The Waltz You Saved for Me" famous . . . and, as the man whose "Josephine" remains one of the nation's most unforgettable tunes.

But, how many people know the Wayne King who is just a neighborly farmer on six-hundred and eighty-five acres of land near Ottawa, Illinois?

Far from the brilliance of footlights

VESTNfIC and the romance of television cameras, Wayne King can be found, during his leisure hours, supervising the activities on his two large farms, the second of which is near Roselle, Illinois.

As a farm owner, Wayne ranks with the best. Both his places are clean, attractive and highly productive. The specialty of both farms is the raising of animals. The number one feeder farm at Ottawa is known for its beef cattle, hogs and lambs, and, on the Roselle farm, Wayne raises top-notch cattle and hogs.

Let's get behind this big event and be a supporting member. (At this writing plans are being drawn for the swimming pool which is to be started the 15th of December). The great personality man, Herbert Klesel from Schulenburg, came to play at our lodge with his renown Knights of Dixie band.

It's utterly amazing what wonderful crowds this popular band brings to our lodge each time he plays. He seems to have that orchestra smile that makes dancing worthwhile. He's coming again in November, so watch the Vestnik for his next date.

Facts from around Lodge No. 88: That beautiful dress Evelyn Vornsand was dressed in at her daughter's wedtling made her look absolutely gorgeous! Charlie Haack, the Sunbeam bread salesman who goes to Fayetteville, is trying to get Lee Roy Matocha (the trophy king) and his versatile orchestra to make a recording about "Ferdinand the Ball" that he has in the pasture near elute, Texas. Sorry to hear our good friends, Albert Sefeik, Vice President Ed Ka.dieeek, and Robert Syptak are hospitalized. I found four new girl friends at our last Birthday Club Sisters' card party: Emma Hood, Clara Earlywine, Alma Stanley, and Pearl Coyle. Clara Earlywine has a son, Dr. Charles Earlywine, who is my personal physician and he does a real good jcb of keeping my blood pressure down with my pressing problems at Lodge 88. Who were the three men in the Blue Room Club at Lodge 88 talking about those plunging gowns that make men stare at and that they won't allow their wives to wear? The hound dogs patrolling our lodge site for the "silent one" (poster destroyer) were very jubilant when they found out their secret was destroyed when someone knocked off a safe job in the vicinity of our lodge. The silent one might as well forget about the dogs' secret. Viola Cox and Gladys Sembera are another faithful pair who always attend our dances on Satairday nights.

Thanks to the boy scouts of our lodge for doing a real good job or, the flower beds in front of the lodge. I wonder if everyone of our lodge insurance organizers will buy a ticket for the Wayne King dance on the 20th of October.

Thanks to Henry King and Gilbert Baurkeroper for purchasing their Wayne King dance tickets early. We wish to express our sy thy to the bereaved family of our uet,arted brother, Anton Svestka, who indeed was one of the faithful few of Lodge No, 88.

Brother ,S'vestka's interest in our lodge was a dedicated one from the heart and few will be able to match the long working hours he gave our lodge in true fraternal spirit. Bonnie Cox of the youth club is goin.g to take over many jobs in the future at our ledge. She is one of the many teen-agers who is proud to help our lodge in any way.

The Supreme Lodge officers will be very proud of the classic swimming pool we will have ready in March of 11:66. Wait until you see the clever Lodge No. 88 swim suits the women will wear at the opening of the swimming pool! Don't forget the social night games each Thursday night. All the social night committee members are doing a superb job and I want to analogize to tilatem for getting our monthly meeting in such a mess; it will be straightened out.

Don't forget the dance this Saturday night, Oct. 16th. The Bay City Dutchmen will be playing.

Two transfers from our lodge arc: Brother Calvin Joe Andel to Lodge 24, Cyclone, and Brother Don Alan Schroeder to Lodge 49, Rowena. Supplements were sent to Shirley Jean Skenkir Patterson and Elizabeth Armintrout.

These members were reported on the sick list: Sisters Emilie Lesikar, Stacie Hejny, Betty Jo. Pechal Ketterman, Little Miss Deborah Ann Motl and Brother Vine J. Hejl.

The following brothers donated their time at the lodge premises: L. J. Motl and Anton Moti fixed the air conditioners; and Frank. Hejl, Jr., Edwin Chlapek and Jery Pechal cut the grass on the yard, highway frontage and entrances to the lodge grounds. Brothers Dennis Bartek, Walter Jakubec, and John Kohut donated their $5 checks back to the lodge, for work they had been assigned payment for.

There is an outside and yard work day on the third Saturday this month, Oct. 16th. So Brothers, make plans to donate some time at the lodge hall and relieve some of the regulars who never miss a work day. Plans are to enclose the open storage shed before the bad weather sets in and some other yard work that needs to be done.

Come equipped with your hand tools.

Brother 0. V. Vanicek's name was drawn before adjournment, in the door prize drawing.

The time for the next meeting was not given to me and I checked with Sister Sodek by phone and since the time was not mentioned at all, I presume the time will be advanced by one hour, due to the election of officers.

The meeting will be held at 1 p.m. on Nov. 7th. If this is not correct, the president can send a note to that effect to the Vestnik to clear it up. The youth leader will probably send in her report and state the time of their meeting.

Fraternally yours, Mrs. Jerry Pechal —SPJSTq 0KOL HOUSTON Dear Members and Friends, On Sunday, Oct. 24, the fourth annual Sokol Circus will be presented at our athletic center.

Madilyn Merta, Vice President -SPJSTBrenham, Texas Dear Friends, This is a belated letter about my vacation.

On the afternoon of July 30 we started on our vacation. We went as far as Buchanan Dam. We spent the night and fished some in the morning. Then we took the Toll Road that took us along one side of the lake. We saw some very nice cottages and places to fish. Then we went on to San Angelo to visit my grandmother, uncles, aunts, and cousins.

After spending an enjoyable time visiting we went to Painted Rock to see the Indian pictographs, and on to Kickapoo Creek to see a fault in the earth that has taken place within the last 20 years, raising the creek bed to some 15 feet in the center. There we also collected fossil rocks. After eating dinner in Menard we started for Fredericksburg where we saw the balanced rocks. and climbed the Enchanted Rocks, which is a granite mountain some 500 feet hi gh, we also collected some more pretty rocks in a creek bed nearby. After spending the night in Fredericksburg, we drove out to see President Johnson's ranch, and on to San Antonio. There we visited the Alamo, saw Breckenridge Park, and then we toured the Pearl Brewery, which is very interesting. We went on to San Marcos and spent the night.

The next morning we saw the aquarena, toured the village of Texana, rode in a glassbottom boat and took a sky ride across the San Marcos River and saw the hanging gardens and an old grist mill still in operation. While there we were quite surprised to see an old mill stone from a paper mill in Rowena, Texas, which is my mother's hometown. After this we went through wonder cave, and from there we came

11 home, ending a very interesting and educational vacation, all within three hundred miles of home in this wonderful State Of Texas.

Either our team was on their toes or the other team didn't show up. This Thursday night we play Rancier of Killeen. We are hoping for another victory. If we try hard enough we can beat them.

On Tuesday, Oct. 7, our school had open house. The parents were invited to come and visit with the teachers and get to know them better. One of the ninth grade teachers challenged all the rest of the ninth grade homerooms by stating that her class would have more parents, students, and small children. If she lost she would give the winning homeroom a reward.

My homeroom had the most people.

There were thirty-four people present, but to this day, we haven't seen the reward.

Culiural Notes "PROGRESSIVE CZECH"

By Prof. Bohumil Mikula 5th Edition A touching ceremony took place in Old Prague Restaurant, Monday evening, Sept. 13th, as the first coppy of the fifth edition of Prof. Bohumil Mikula's Progressive Czech was presented to his widow, Mrs. Emma Mikula by Miss Vlasta Vraz, President of the Czechoslovak National Council. of America. This was in keeping with the Council's continuous efforts to expand the knowledge of the Czech language and to better acquaint the American public with the rich. Czechoslovak cultural contributions to America.

The presentation of the first volume to Mrs. Mikula, was justly earned, for it was through her efforts and generosity that this outstanding teaching aid could be republished for the first time. The first edition was published in 1936 by Prof. Mikula, to overcome the handicap of teaching not only Czech grammar but also literary, historical and other material without a comprehensive textbook. The present edition has been brought up to date and has added articles by Professor K. B. Jirak on Czechoslovak music and Dr. Joseph Anderle on Czechoslovak history.

Miss Vraz expressed the appreciation, for Prof. Mikula's work not only of those present, but of everyone interested in the perpetuation and officially recognized need for the learning of the Czech language and its rich history. Dr. S. G. Kosinski, Assistant Principal of Morton High School, where Prof. Mikula taught for 40 years, told of his 38-year association with him and the valuable contributions he made to the teaching profession, not only in teaching Czech, but in his outstanding work in the visual aid field of teaching.

For t e Lousewife BAKE BEANS DUDE RANCH STYLE Chances are you have spent some time vacationing at a dude ranch, or perhaps just wished you could. Here is where family and friends meet at dawn to ride in the wide-open spaces.

Then at dusk the scene shifts to the campfire site for talking and singing while the stars twinkle overhead. But, when not talking, there's eating, and the specialty is beans.

Nudge your memory a bit, and back may come the whiff of an outdoor barbecue . . . big juicy hamburgers and franks sizzling over the coals with an open kettle of beans, seasoned with pork, simmering to piping hot.

D,.:cle Ranch Bean Bake is the next )best thing to the honest-to-goodness campfire variety. It matches the easygoing tempo of informal dining and is accustomed to pleasing with hearty filling fare. Whether preparation is at "home-on-the-range" or in an electric skillet, just lift the lid and catch a glimpse of this dandy combination . . . canned red kidney beans and pork and beans with miniature sausage meat balls mixed throughout.

It's spiked with onion rings and green pepper for additional flavor.

Serve with garlic buttered toast, relishes and a tossed green salad; follow with cake and coffee.

ACHERTORTE AND COFFEE ARE

VIENNESE DELIGHTS So many beautiful things have come to us from Vienna, in the way of music, dance and, of course, food. The

14 mere mention of that city gives rise thoughts of grand balls with the music of the strauss waltz. It also makes one think Of the delicious cakes and pastries that provide food for thought in the intimacy of coffeehouses.

One of the most Viennese sweets is the Sachertorte, invention of Frau Anna Sadler, once owner of the famous Hotel Sacher. Though she was reputedly not much of a dessert-eater herself, Frau Sacher made her celebrated torte a rich chocolate cake with an apricot glaze covered by chocolate fondant icing. In Vienna, the Sachertorte is served with a puff of sweetened whipped cream on the side. Frosted all over, as in Vienna, or just on top, like our version, Sachertorte makes a delicious dessert for the evening dessert-coffee party.

Like Viennese desserts, Viennese coffee has its own distinct personality.

In Frau Sacher's era particularly, the Viennese were very careful to specify the exact shade they desired. The coffee might have little, much or no milk, which was either strained or unstrained skim milk, and frequently they topped the coffee with Schlagobers, dollops of whipped cream made with the Obers, or top, taken from the milk when it was skimmed. Today, we think of Viennese coffee as rich, black and always crowned with a fluff of Schlagobers, part of the beautiful Viennese tradition.

Sachertorte 34 cup butter or margarine 34 cup sugar 6 eggs, separated 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 package (6-ounces) semi-sweet chocolate, melted and slightly cooled 2 cups sifted cake flour 1/2 cup Apricot Jam (about) Chocolate Frosting Cream butter to consistency of mayonnaise. Add sugar slowly while continuing to cream until light and fluffy. Add egg yolks one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add vanilla, mix well. Heat egg whites stiff but not dry.

For Your Information: TEXAS YOUTH MUST HELP PLAN THEIR OWN FUTURE, CARR SAYS Texas youth must be allowed to have a hand in planning their own future, for the answer to juvenile problems lies not in corrections, but in prevention.

Texas: Attorney General Waggoner Carr, addressing the annual meeting of the Texas Home Demonstration AsSCOls Um is Austin recently, emphasized that "by the time a child reaches juvenile court, most of the damage to him has already been done."

"What we as leaders must do is to reach the child before he becomes a delinquent. To combat juvenile delinquency, it is necessary to involve young people themselves,' Carr told the group of almost 1,000 homemakers.

He said that the Attorney General's Youth Conference on Crime — which brought together more than 1,600 young delegates this year — is concentrating on three basic concerns of Texas youth: the organization of projects designed to build respect for law enforcement among our young people, the undertaking of projects to better qualified youth for the opportunities and challenges of todays living, and Proj ects to combat drop-outs in Texas schools.

"Curent projects include such pro -gramsthenagjurystemnow in operation in over 10 Texas cities, and the unique Tutorial Program begun in 1964 by high school students who tutor sixth graders in an effort to keep them in school," Carr said.

Despite current efforts to help youth, Carr said many more are needed. "The urbanization of Texas has made it difficult for the people of a city to supply guidance to each child — yet we know that unless the trend of youth crime and delinquency can be changed, the future will be an era of internal violence the like of which we have never seen,' Car warned.

FALL PRODUCE STARTS ARRIVING

Produce counters soon will begin to fill with fall vegetables and fruits.

There are vivid red apples, green and yellow squash and bright orange pumpkins. Sweet potatoes, cabbage, eggplant, collards and turnips and greens are other good vegetable choices for fall, says Mrs. Gwen Clyatt, Texas A. & M. University Extension consumer marketing specialist.

Wednesday, October 13, 1965 Supplies of russet and red potatoes are increasing and prices are below those of last year. Corn, okra, blackeye, crowder and purple hull peas are still available but supplies are declining. Snap beans are the featured item at some stores.

Grapes are an attractive fruit choice with, both white seedless and Tokay of excellent quality available. Golden delicious is one of the early apple varies now on the market. New crop ,grapefruit is just beginning to arrive.

For an economical beverage, Mrs. Clyatt says to mix equal quantities of fresh whole milk and reconstituted nonfat dry milk. Use this combination in hot chocolate or cream soups, both favorites for cool weather.

Fryers are in good supply with prices at bargain levels. Large size chicken hens and turkeys are attractive buys.

Beef prices are generally about the same as a week ago. Hindquarter cuts of beef may be j ust a little lower in price, which means that steaks may cost less. The forequarter cuts including cuts for pot roasting and ground beef continue to give the most value for the money.

Pork supplies remain short with smoked pork butts and hams the best; buys. Canned hams and picnics will be featured at attractive prices in some markets.

THE FAMILY LAWYER Who Owns a Letter?

Interesting letters may give birth to interesting notions. Such as: "I'd better not throw away this letter from Fred. He might become famous some day, and then the letter could be worth a lot of money as a collector's item."

Suppose Fred really does become famous and his letter' valuable. Would itbelong to yo,u, because it was sent to you? Or would it belong to Fred, because he created it?

The law's deft solution is to divide the ownership of aletter into two separate rights the right of possession and the right of publication. The recipient has the right of posession of the paper and ink. He may keep the letter as a memento, sell it to a collector, or even toss it into a. bonfire if he pleases.

But the right of publication — to make copies and exploit it as a litterary work — still belongs to the original writer.

This division of rights was illustrated in a famous lawsuit involving

Wednesday, October 13, 1965 . some personal letters written by Mary Baker Eddy, founder of Christian Science. After Mrs. Eddy's death, her executor tried to prevent the auctioning of these letters.

The court ruled that the sale itself could not be prevented, because Mrs. Eddy had given away the right of possession when she first mailed the letters. Rut the court did forbid reprinting of the letters in advertisements of the auction, because Mrs. Eddy had never given away the right of publication.

Of course, ,circumstances alter cases.

For example, if you write a letter-tothe editor, you are obviously giving the the editor not only the right of possession but the right of publication as well.

Also, publication of a letter without the writer's the writer's consent may be justified by the necessities of law enforcement. Thus, when a woman was charged with adultery, incriminating letters she has written were held admissible in court even though she tried to keep them out.

But as a rule, the separate rights of possession and publication will be kept intact. For the law is simply lending form to the instinctive promptings of fair play.

As one court put it, in denying a man's demand for the return of love letters he had once sent to a woman: "According to befitting decorum, such letters, written to her to keep and read and cherish, are hers."

SOME FACTS ABOUT STROKES A stroke occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is reduced or competely cut off, says Today's Health Guide, the new manual of health information of the American Medical Asociation.

This can be caused by a blood clot or by hemorrhage — bleeding from an artery in the brain. Medical terms used for various kinds of strokes are cerebral vascular occlusion, cerebral thrombosis, cerebral embolism and cerebral hemorrhage.

When the nerve cells of a part of the brain are deprived of their blod supply, the part of the body controlled by these nerve centers cannot function normally. The result may be weakness or paralysis, difficulty in speaking or loss of memory.

VEST/Jilt Some patients recover quickly, and can resume their normal activities.

Others may suffer such serious damage that even a partial recovery will take a long time. Immediate treatment with proper exercise and other forms of therapy can do much toward helping a patient regain the use of muscles and speech.

If a stroke is brought on by a narrow blood vessel or, in some instances, a blood clot, the doctor may use anticoagulant drugs to prevent another stroke. When neck arteries leading to the brain are involved, a surgical operation can sometimes remove the obstruction to circulation.

Rehabilitatifon tor stroke requires the cooperation of the doctor, the patient and the family. The patient's own will to avoid invalidism and to become independent is especially important.

TREES AND SHRUBS CAN BE

GROWN ON A TRELLIS Want something different in your homegrounds landscaping? A tree or large shrub trained to grow on a trellis or wall may be the answer, says Everett Jane„ Extension landscape horticulturist at Texas A.&M. University.

Advanced gardeners may spend years developing a large espalier tree or shrub, but the results are worth the effort, adds Janne. Fruit trees are especially adapted for use as espaliers and many of the ornamental plants with colorful fruit such as the pyracantha are also very effective, he adds.

The training is started when the plant is very young, preferably a 1year old whip or at most a 2-year old budded or grafted fruitstock. Start it before the plant has produced a stiff trunk and large side branches, advises Janne.

Usually the whip is pruned back to within a foot or two of the ground by heading back the main stem. Allow only those side shoots to develop which are growing in the proper position and direction to produce the desired effect.

The selected lateral shoots are tied to the trellis or post as they grow and the side shoots developing from them are pinched out except those wanted for additional arms in the framework or for fruiting spurs.

In most cases, espaliers are trained to grow so all branches will form a vertical plane. The plant may be trained to a single shoot, or to two shoots lying in opposite directions, Usually horibontal, and is known as a

15 cordon. The cordon, explains Janne, is usually trained along a horizontal wire or low wooden fence. Other methods include the fan-shaped and gridiron espaliers and both are suitable for growing along a wall, the horticulturists says.

The espaliered plant requires less room than a free standing plant and is an effective way to screen or protect a wall from the full heat of the sun. The plant can be fastened to a masonry wall but it is better to use a wood trellis to hold the plant 4 to 6 inches from the wall for air circulation and less heat damage to the plant. East and north exposures are best, says Janne.

To be effective, a uniform balance of growth must be maintained over the entire plant. This requires constant observation and careful pruning, says Janne. Root pruning, he adds, may be necessary if the plant is growing in unusually fertile soil and controlling the growth of side shootsbe'comes difficult. And don't let the cloth or plastic strips used for tying the branches in the desired positions become too tight. Cut and retie, says Janne, as the plant grows.

TEENAGE MARRIAGES ARE

INCREASING Parents or pre-teens, here's a question for your consideration: Will your youngster soon join the ranks of married teenagers?

Not much chance with your youngster, you may say. But you had better look again if your teena,ger is a girl, says Mrs. Patsy R. Yates, Extension family life specialist at Texas A. & M. University.

"Studies show that you have almost a 0-50 chance of a teenage daughter marrying before she is 20," says Mrs. Yates.

In 1960, 48 per cent of all Texas' girls — or some 156,000 young women between the age of 14 and 19 — were or at some time had been married.

This high rate of teenage marriages isn't likely to go down a great deal, Mrs. Yates predicts.

"You can help prepare your daughter or son for the responsibilities of marriage and a home ay encouraging them to enroll in high school home economics courses which teach management in the family and consumer buying. You can also urge them to take courses which may be offered in family relationships or family living."

These courses may not prevent teenage marriages, but they do afford

MAKE YOUR MONEY CO FARTHER There are two ways to live better on your present income, says Mrs. Elsie P. Short, Extension home management specialist at Texas A.&M. University.

One is to get more for your money and the other is to put your money where it counts most.

To live better on your present income„ avoid impulse buying and throwing your money away. Look around your house. How many things can you see that you haven't used or could have lived without? Are you guilty of buying "white elephants" which are now virtually useless?

If you answer yes, start planning

better money management. Use some of these suggestions: Buy the best, rather than the most expensive. Learn to judge quality by an item's value to you.

Consider discontinued models of well-known brands that have guaranteed replaceable parts. Second-hand items may be good choices. The new Models may not be essentially changed from the older ones and the added features may not be important to you.

Wednesday, October 13, 1965 Buy merchandise on sale, but be sure it is a real reduction in price and not special merchandise brought in especially as a sale drawing card.

Save money by paying cash. This enables you to avoid the extra carrying charge.

Keep what you have in good repair.

Develop the ability to see needed repairs before breakdowns occur.

-SPJSTFootnote to History Funds which were intended to build Texas' first public library were provided by a man who went to school less than six months.

He was Edward Dixon Westfall, a Bexar County rancher. In 1891, long before Texas had a public library, he wrote a will directing that his entire estate be used to establish a library in San Antonio.

The Alamo City had a library by the time it received the bequest, but it honors his memory today with the Westfall Branch of the San Antonio Library.

Traveling Texas Unless they're readers of Western fiction, few visitors to Lockhart, county seat of Caldwell County, will recognize it as one of the wildest sowtowns in early Texas.

Today Lockhart is a staid farming community. It was such an authentic frontier town in the early days, however, that Emerson Hough chose Lockhart as the starting point of the great cattle drive in his immortal Western classic, "North of 36."

-SPJST---Rock and Roll?

Texas Indians may have been unlettered savages, but some of them had an ear for good fiddle music.

In the 1870's Billie Wolfe, a Denton County youth with some self-taught dexterity on violin, was kidnapped by a couple of Comanche braves who had heard him play. He was taken to their reservation where , for three years, his only assignment was to make music.

Perhaps the Indians tired of his tunes because they finally released him. He went on to New York and became a mild sensation on the eastern vaudeville circuit as "the cowboy fiddler."

Safety First One of the most famous safety slogans of all time is credited to the agile mind of a Texas railroad ticket agent.

In the mid-1930's J. E. Johnson, agent at the Katy station in Denison, began writing safety messages and tacking them onto the depot bulletin board. One which is still seen on highways everywhere reads: "If you drive, don't drink; If you drink, don't drive."

The Old Depot At Columbus, Colorado County, the old railroad station is used now to house a collection of early-day buggies.

When the Southern Pacific discontinued passenger service and slosed the station a few years ago, A. J. Wray of Houston bought the station and moved it to his ranch near Columbus. He wanted to preserve the special architecture that made the ald railway station the distinctive building that it was in any town.

—SPJSTCorpus Christi, Texas Cteni etenaki Vestniku: Nekolik tYdnii zpatky jsem Ceti v dennich novinach, "2e na Zivot pojidt'ujici spoleenosti" nebudou nadale pojidt'ovat Zlvoty tech, kteki jsou ve sh:2bach branne moci vojenske." Kdy g vypakla prvni svetova, valka v roku 1917, Spojene stati se na ni dodilely a naae vlada nesla Zivotni pojidteni na vdochny yojaky na obnos do desiti tisic ($10,000.00).

To pojidteni platilo i pro druhou valku svotovou, ale pak pozdeji to bylo zrudeno, a kaZdY, kdo chtel miti givotni pojistku, tak si ji muses obstarat sam u vYdeleenych obchodnich spoleenosti a neb i n bratrskYCh Jednot.

Ovdem 2e za yyddi poplatky nee byly clkive ptedepsany vladou a odpoeitany ze slu'Zneho.

Kclyg jsou ty nepokoje v rfanych eastech zeme a naae vojenska moc je rozptylend mimo domacich hranic, bylo nutno se postarat o ty portistale v padu dmrti.

Tato pkedloha byla podepsana presidentem Johnsonem y e stkedu 29. zaii. V branne moci ze se nachazi blizko tiech milionu nuthi. KaZdY pojidtenY vojrn mute si jmenovat dedice.

Myslim jen, ze budete klidnej gi, budete-li mit nekde kousek domova."

Maryna ji dojata dekovala, a sill ila, g e se tedy vrati. Pani Majerova mela pravdu. Byla v torn jakasi Utecha, ze ma koutek, kam se bude mod. uchYlit v prvni dobe po onom velkem vratu do givota.

Vzpominala, co potiebuje takovY tvoreeek, otazka dosti tegka, pro studentku, je g gila dosud mugskjim givotern, a byla neprakticka, jako by byl mug, kdyby mu nekdo ulogil takovou povinnost. Nerozhodne pohhgela na vykladni skiine, ag se koneene odhodlala vejit. Majitelka zavodu na ni s nsmevem pohledla, pochopila vgak ihned, co si pieje colada gena. Radila ochotne a za chvili se Maryniny chv gjici prsty probiraly mekkou spoustou nepatrnYch ko gilek, kabatkil a g epioek. Z ylagtni fluidum vychazelo z tech yeeigek a Maryna si po prve uvedomila jasne sve dite. Dosud

Byl pfijemny letni podve ger a Maryne se nechtelo domit. Ktheela, zamy glena, na Hradeany, chtela se rozlougit s Prahou, ne gli odjede, negli se vyda na cestu do neznama, odkud se mela vratit se syYm ditetem.

Petr psal!

Urednik ji podal nekolik listka z Berlina a z Kodane a Maryna se zvedave zahledela na jeho pismo. Psal drobne, ribledne a sdeloval ji nekolika slovy sve dojmy. Zaradovala se a od onoho dne ji byli jeho listky a dopisy jedinou ritechou.

Byla obledena s rafinovanou nklherou, mela skvela, ramena a snehobilou plet' diskretne nalieenou. Rude jeji rty ho mamily, vybizely a 16,kaly. Madelaine, rozkodna, bohemka, nemela predsudkii a Petr se ji libil. V sale bylo intimni dervenave svetlo, nejnovejdi, vtirave sentimentalni tango bourilo smysly. Dvojice na taneenim parketu se kolebaly v mamivem rytmu, lomene tony hudby vilily krev.

Madelaine se tiskla nahYmi rameny k Petrovi, jeji rude nalidene rty byly tak blizko. . .

Vdecky jeho smysly byly napjaty, smerovaly daleko odtud, z taneeniho ruchu, nekam do prostoru, odkud znelo ono tajemne Maryna!

Vzpominka na ni prehludila hudbu, umldela vabny smich krasne Madelainy. Mel ji jedte v objeti, netiskl ji vdak k sebe. nevidel jejich rudYch rtil zarivYch oei.
