SPJST Scholarship Donations Welcomed The SPJST recently established a Scholarship Fund to encourage its members to further their education.

A separate account here at the Home Office has been set up for funds to be utilized exclusively for this program.

LAM ( urator Otto Hanus tells about the additional wooden creation donated to the museum by Mrs. Antonie L. Bohuslav of El Campo whose husband, the late Frank J. Bohuslav, carved over 183 pieces.

Local lodges, SPJST members and friends are encouraged to voluntarily contribute to this fund.

Examples of donations would be a local lodge making a contribution in lieu of sending flowers to a deceased member or a fraternal donation from a local lodge.

District III Youth Counselor Bessie Petr reports on the youth activities for the past summer months.

At Christmas time in lieu of sending a greeting by card, we will have a Christmas Greeting page in the

Vestnik from all those who make a contribution to the Scholarship Fund.

These are just a few suggestions so you can assist and help us make the Fund grow so we may expand the program.

We will recognize on a quarterly basis, in the Vestnik, all lodges and/ or individuals who have contributed to the fund and for what reason (example: in memory of, etc.) plus Christmas Greeting page during the Yuletide season.

If you have any inquiry regarding the above, please let us know and we certainly hope the general membership participates in this endeavor.

On the front page of the October 27, 1982 issue the two pictures cutlines could be read misleadingly, however, that was not the intent.

The PC, after being let in by Brother Otto Hanus, met in the small conference room near the rear of the lobby. PC Secretary Melvin Skrabanek read a letter from Sister Olexa stating that she did not approve of the picture of the Sokol instructors appearing on the front page of the September 15th issue of Vestnik. Your editor explained that it was the only good pictures he had because the State YAD pictures of August 22nd still had not arrived_ (which he had planned to use on the front page) and excused himself so the PC could discuss the issue.

Br. Hanus was in the lobby and, after getting the camera from the car, we viewed and took pictures of the collection from Mrs. Bohuslay.

Br. Hanus stated he had to go see his wife at 12 p.m. and, mistakingly, your editor thought she was at home and had lunch ready for him; therefore, the mistake.

After rejoining the PC and giving them the information they went outside and the pictures were taken there.

More than one hundred delegates and guests registered and attended the 82nd annual Texas Fraternal Congress, October 29th . through 31st, at the . Inn of the Hills, iri Kerrville, Texas.

Leaders of approximately twentyseven organizations assembled to promote the welfare of the fraternal benefit system, which united the fraternal societies in all matters of mutual concern and public interest.

Ranking officials from SPJST played an important role, especially during the meetings we attended.

After processing Saturday's mail for the Vestnik before our departure to the TFC, we were able to enjoy the Saturday evening and Sunday morning sessions.

Saturday evening featured a Youth Spectacular, with President of the Youth Counselor's Section, Gene McBride, in charge; performances by several SPJST youth members from Dallas, Elk, Houston, Taiton and Robstown lodges, as well as from other societies, were enjoyed by all; also District VII Director Thelma Hrncir and our youngest son aided as accompanists for two numbers. Indications from the attentive audience proved that the program was well-appreciated.

Sunday morning, we had the privilege to attend the early breakfast of the Fraternal Insurance Counselor's Section with SFM Silas Smith and his spouse Jeanette; this session was conducted by President Robert Beglau. Most of the attendance at this session was composed

of fraternal insurance counselors who invited a guest or guests to the breakfast session.

Informative and interesting topics were exchanged for discussion. Consideration was to donate a set amount of money to a well-known charitable organization. Thereafter, each annual Texas Fraternal Congress would make a monetary donation to a worthy cause in the town or city where the TFC was being hosted; recognition would also be given through the local newspaper so the community would know of the Texas Fraternal Congress and its purpose.

There was emphasis on the Fraternal Insurance Counselor (FIC) Pledge Certificate, which is being published with permission. It reads as follows: F.I.C. PLEDGE CERTIFICATE This F.I.C. Pledge Certificate is issued only by Fraternal Insurance Counsellors in good standing who are pledged to the F.I.C. Code of Ethics.

Your F.I.C. pledges that he personally will consider the obligations and requirements of the F.I.C. Code of Ethics and the promises stated below in presenting to you any plan of insurance.

He hereby pledges that: 1. He will not now or at any future time try to sell you insurance protection you do not need or which is not suited to your family or budget.

2. He will give you personal, fast and accurate service on claims or changes in your fraternal insurance and will provide you with counsel on your insurance matters whenever requested. CALL YOUR F.I.C. DAY OR NIGHT. 3. He will respect your confidence and hold in trust any personal information it is necessary for you to give him to make sure you get the best insurance plan for you and your family.

4. He will always place your best interests and welfare above any personal consideration which he may have.

5. He will continue regular study to keep abreast of advances in the insurance field so that he can advise you of any such advances which may be advantageous to you.

Your Fraternal Insurance Counsellor, in order to earn the F.I.C. degree, has been required to take comprehensive training which has imparted to him the knowledge he needs to fulfill these pledges. He has been compelled to prove he has this knowledge by taking rigid examinations under the careful supervision of the National Association of Fraternal Insurance Counsellors.

This pledge, made by your Fraternal Insurance Counsellor, is backed by the National Association of Fraternal Insurance Counsellors and the Fraternal Field Managers Association, representing more than 70 Fraternal Benefit Societies in the United States and Canada.

You can trust your F.I.C. to do his best for you.

Before you can achieve an FIC Certificate, you must consider the professional fraternal sales program that is being recommended by more and more fraternal societies. It won't be too long before our SPJST will some day be faced with having (Continued on Page 12)

Dear Readers: Other reports will be published concerning the 82nd Annual Convention of the Texas Fraternal Congress held October 29-31 in Kerrville, but since this was my first one to attend as delegate, I am grateful for this opportunity to tell you my impressions of it.

First I would like to thank the SPJST for allowing me to be one of the 104 registered delegates.

Twenty-seven fraternals comprise the TFC's membership. Four Supreme Lodge officers, five district directors, the editor, two field representatives and the state youth counselor gave our Society good representation. We feel honored that Brother Sid Pokladnik was elected and installed as the new TFC president for the coming year.

He will lead the Congress well, and we offer him our sincere congratulations.

Possibly some of you may be wondering what the purpose of such an organization is. I learned that its main purpose is to coordinate the efforts of the Fraternal Benefit Societies in Texas in their common efforts and to cooperate with the National Fraternal Congress in its purpose and programs. The leadership presents guest speakers who talk on subjects of vital and current interest, and delegates exchange ideas on projects and civic endeavors. After attending, I feel this is money well-invested with high returns to each society and Texas on the whole. I am happy the SPJST supports this organization with such large representation. The 1983 TFC convention will be held in Temple with our. Society as hosts next October.

Instead of telling you about the good speakers we heard and the business transacted, I would like to commend our members who had a part in the success of the convention.

Brother Sid Pokladnik conducted a beautiful memorial service Sunday morning. Sister Geraldine Becan sang two hymns, "Be Thou One Vision" and "Faith of Our Fathers."

What a lovely God-given voice! The memorial altar was prepared by Sister Justine Pokladnik.

In reports from the NFC, Bernie Gebala reported on the Fraternal Affairs Section and Nick Morris on the Presidents' Section. Brother Morris also served as parliamentarian for the TFC. Brother Pokladnik served as chairman of the Registration and Credentials Committee.

Gene McBride, assisted by SYD Jann Wilson, conducted the Youth Counselors' Section well. Speaking for our SPJST were Vincent Hegwood of Houston and Mandy Mikulencak of Granger. Performing on the Youth Spectacular were Stephanie Becan of Lodge 84; Joe Landin andDebbie Foerster, both of

4fVESTNIK - Wednesday, November 10, 1982 Lodge 117; Darrin Banik and Lana Steinke (both of Lodge 35) and Edwin Joe Sefcik of Lodge 54; Michael Marek of Lodge 50, and Kelly Korenek of Lodge 30. They each did a good job and brought much honor to our Society and pride to our hearts. We thank each of you!

Parents of the performers attended as special guests of the SPJST at the Youth Banquet which followed.

Their warmth and friendliness were noticed by all the other delegates and guests.

This was a full weekend, and I feel that I am a better-informed member because I attended. I was proud to be a part of the Congress, but most of all, I am proud to be a member of the SPJST. Fraternally, Thelma Hrncir Dist. VII Director -SPJST-

SPJST Lodge 50 El Campo and SPJST Lodge 40 Hillje To Merge A very special meeting for all members in good standing of Lodge 50, El Campo SPJST and Lodge 40, Hillje SPJST will be held Wednesday, November 10, 1982 at the Hillje SPJST Hall at 7:30 p.m.

Lodge No. 88 News The two special dances held Friday, October 29 and Saturday, October 30, with music by the famous Al Pierson Orchestra were well-attended by lovely people, all dressed according to the dress code for that evening and so were the ladies on the committee. Friday night in charge was Bill McCaskle, and Saturday night, Millie Manack had charge of the dance. Our dress code for these dances is plainly visible on the billboard in the lobby and also printed in our advertising; but still, once in a while, there will be someone to come to the dance not knowing the rules. These dances are special and guests love to dress nicely and it is a pleasure to see the guests in lovely gowns. We have numerous dances not requiring special dress attire. All it takes to attend these is to follow our ads; these are plainly visible in our lobby.

Please, no offense, this is just a reminder; come out, we love to have you enjoy our spacious Chandelier Ballroom and the delicious breakfast available after each dance in our dining room and you will be served

by Annie Vala with a smile.

Lillie Spies, our Birthday Club treasurer, enjoyed a beautiful picturesque New England Foliage Tour for 13 days leaving early in the morning October 1st and returning October 13th tired with many beautiful memories and a chest cold which she was nursing for 3 weeks after she arrived home. Lillie is fine now; we missed her at the last Birthday Card Party the first week and the meeting second weekend, of course, at the Czech Day. She drove through East Texas to Arkansas into Memphis, Tennessee and spent the first night, next day, fresh and eager, to Nashville (or Music City, USA) had lunch and headed for the Blue Grass State of Kentucky; in Bradstown she enjoyed dinner and a dance before retiring. This is the oldest city in Kentucky; she also visited many historic sights and spent the night in Columbus, Ohio, the State Capitol City. The next stop was the famous Niagara Falls (Honeymooner's Paradise) and, after dinner, she went up to the top of Skylon Tower to view both, the American and the Canadian Falls shown under colored floodlights; the next day she went to the Goat Island to see the raging rapids and get the last glimpse of the unforgettable Niagara Falls, the Thousand Islands of the St. Lawrence Seaway (many of these islands are privately owned); next were the Adirondak Mountains once known as Americans Siberia for the severe winters. She then crossed on a ferry for one hour and 15 minutes on one of the lakes to make the stop overnight in Burlington, Vermont.

Next day was a visit through the Green Mountains (the apple country), and covered bridges built in 1833 were seen in Middleburg and near Whitsfield: Vermont's Capitol City, Montelier, with the impressive capitol building which is a granite structure with an impressive gilded dome, crossed the river in New Hampshire and spent the night in Littleton; the following day rode the Aerial Tramway to the top of Cannon Mountains which is 4,180 feet high.

It was a foggy day and the visibility was very poor. Next was the historic

6/VESTNIK - Wednesday, November 10, 1982 Boston, the Capitol City of Massachusetts and with a guide visited: Bunker Hill, USS Constitution, Old North Church, Beacon Hill and Back Bay. Leaving Boston, she drove through Rhode Island to New York and stayed on Manhattan Island, toured through Times Square, Theatre District, Garment District, Greenwich Village, Bowery, China Town, Wall Street, United Nations, and the Statue of Liberty. She departed New York via the Lincoln Tunnel and on to the Pennsylvania Turnpike crossing many rivers and viewed the Blue Ridge Mountains, leaving Virginia on through Ohio, Illinois, St. Louis, the gateway to the west and on to Joplin, Missouri and the 13th day on the home stretch, tired but satisfield with memories of colorful highways, mountains, valleys and covered 4,446 miles.

We had a special visitor here in Houston; Sister Emily Zemko, the spouse of the late John Zemko, now living in Chicago. Emily arrived in October in time to enjoy our annual Blue Room Party and, the following Sunday, the annual Czech Day. Emily and John both were members of the Choral Club while here in Houston and for the Czech Day, she participated with the Choral Club in costume for the day's program, and it was a pleasure to have her in our midst to participate. The first two weeks Emily was the house guest of Rosalee and Tim Kostom in their lovely and cozy home. The remainder of her visit was spent with her close friends Staci and Bennie Kocich in their spacious and lovely home. During her stay she enjoyed a visit with her friend, Dorothy Muras, in Shiner, Texas; also a Sunday in Wiemar, Texas enjoying a barbecue feast with Harley and Viola Cox and several invitations by friends and, for the finale, a dinner at the Cellar Door Restaurant. It was a pleasure; when she will visit again is the question.

Thanks, Emily, for the gift of $25 to the Dramatic Club "Hlahol." We will be looking forward to seeing you, again SOON! We are proud to claim you as a member of the Choral Club.

Fraternally, Frances Olexa -SPJST-

Lodge 92 Ft. Worth Schedules November 14th Meeting Dear Vestnik Readers: My time has gone into high gear now and I cannot catch up. It seems that our October meeting is just over and now it is time for our November meeting, which will be November 14 and that means Thanksgiving and Christmas.

The October meeting went over real well. Sister Christine Zich read the minutes which were approved by the members. Other committees also made their reports.

Brother Gordon Hubenak took the youth members bowling who all had a good time.

Our Entertainment Committee is planning a Christmas Party along with three other Lodges: Nos. 154, 180, 183 and, of course, Lodge 92. We are going to have the party at our lodge, Lodge No. 92, December 5th

214,75 at 2 p.m. This will start with a meal from 2 until 3:30 p.m. After the meal, 13 we will have a dance. The music will be furnished by Henry Rejcek. We are also asking our ladies to bring 30 . 76 the goodies. Now, for the most 141:66 important part: You must contact 0 Evelyn Spacek to let her know if you 105.10 are coming to this party; either write or call her at 2317 N. Houston, Fort 0 78 . 31 Worth, TX 76106, phone no. 6251,090.70 0714. This shall be a lot of fun, so 1,184.18 let's all come out and have a good 1,847.39 time.

We had a few anniversaries 103.29 53.19 among our members last meeting, 54.53 including Brother and Sister 774.46 Chalupka; they were going to celebrate their 46th year on the 12th of 0 October, about four more years and 3,521.51 I bet we will help them celebrate 1,920.49 their 50th. Won't that be nice?

665.63 Brother Rudy Wruble came to the 1,809.53 meeting on crutches, but I hear he 1,449.67 has even gotten rid of them; that's 6,330.79 the way, Rudy, be tough!

104.08 This time I have a little confession 3,682.53 to make. I completely missed out on 0 writing to the Vestnik last month so 61.75 I got myself into trouble. I was put 364.86 before the firing squad, but, like 0 Rudy, I'm tuff. Ha! In a way it made 1,485.35 me feel good because my scribbling 2,049.25 is read. This time I made sure it gets 2,088.71 in the Vestnik on time, but October 82.85 is a very busy time for us and 142.50 everyone, I guess. We went to Dallas to the State Fair for Czech 0 16.63 Day and saw many of our friends and relatives that is always a pleasure.

1,485.86 he Czech Day was really beautiful 199.04 The this year, those who worked so hard 9.40 to get it together deserve a big 1,969.82 THANK YOU! It was great!

241.25 October 24th, we had our District 627.50 III meeting in Dallas at Lodge 130 0 which was also great, but a little dis325 35 appointing in the crowd. It was a 101.32 beautiful day to travel and it was 1,511.26 held in a beautiful lodge so we wish 0 more people could have attended.

0 It's a lot of fun to get together at these district meetings; that's the 0 0 only way to get together and all lodges mix for a good purpose. The 0 0 meetings are always interesting, the 95.50 food is always good, and we know it 0 will be in a nice place, because all of 739.16 our lodge buildings are beautiful.

9.26 Our next District III meeting will be S74.99 held here in Fort Worth at Lodge 154. Sister Mary Pavey, got ready 436.32 for a big one; we are all coming!

246.96 Our October meeting ended early 868.12 with a good meal waiting; as always, 0 Sister Marie Tesar is always busy in 0 the kitchen while our President 2,275.48 Albert Kubala is conducting the 0 meeting. The smell of good food makes us ready to eat.

0 We will see you at our next 0 1 , 378 . 75 meeting, November 14 at 2 p.m.!

Fraternally, Helen Kubala -SPJST125.25

000 94 The owners of the Bohemian 00244 Bakery, located at 2932 N. Buckner 00041 Dallas, had created a 6 lb. 8 oz.

Letter to the Editor

Prune Kolache. It was then rushed to the Band Shell where the annual "CZECH DAY", at the State Fair of Texas, was being held.

It was then auctioned off, proceeds going to the AmericanCzechoslovak Culture Society.

Among all the bidders participating, the following: Billy Diabja, Joe Vrava, Joe Gletka, Bernie Miller, Gary Zalkovsky and Gary Valek all of Ennis, were able to turn in $80 for the highest bid and receive the Kolache.

In the true spirit of fund-raising, the Kolache was donated back to the Bohemian Bakery so it could be auctioned off once again.

The bidding was resumed and once again among all the bidders were the following: Lad Maly, Frank Prohoska, Kenneth and Mary Ann Krivanek, Al Kercho and Frank Tesar all of Ft. Worth, who came up with the highest bid of $67.

The generosity of these fine people enabled the Bohemian Bakery to donate a grand total of $147 for the "WORLD'S LARGEST PRUNE KOLACHE" to the American Czechoslovak Culture Society.

Sincerely, _ Mary Ann Srubar Secretary American Czechoslovakian Culture Society - SPJST-

EDITORIAL(Continued from Page 2) more FICs. Moreover, the Fraternal Sales Training Program is designed to help the field representative develop into a knowledgeable, wellrounded sales representative; he can earn the distinction of an FIC designation, awarded only to those who have successfully completed the Basic, Intermediate and Advanced level courses and examinations.

At the FIC breakfast session, it was stated that many of our field insurance individuals are not aware of the Texas Fraternal Congress nor of the FIC program. The editor would like to pass on some important information from the Fraternal Monitor to our sales representatives who would like to take time and learn of the three FIC courses.

The Basic Course of the Fraternal Sales Training Program brings the new representative the basic knowledge needed to get into production quickly and efficiently.

In 18 study units, it covers the history and development of fraternal insurance, and the fundamentals of life insurance selling.

The Intermediate Course of the Fraternal Sales Training Program, expanded to two sections, thoroughly covers the essentials of life insurance marketing, the various individual and family markets, total needs selling, government benefits, and both capital utilization and capital retention methods and case studies.

The Advanced Course introduces the field representative to business insurance (taxation, sole proprietorships, partnerships, close corporations, key-executive plans), qualified retirement plans, disability plans and estate protection (shrinkage and liquidity).

Upon completion of all three courses and corresponding monitored examinations, the field representative is awarded the coveted designation of Fraternal Insurance Counselor (FIC).

All three courses feature R&R Newkirk's outstanding "commented grading" service. This allows the student the chance to have unit questionnaires for each course graded by the experienced Supervised Study Department. Upon completion of each course, the student is awarded a handsome, personalized certificate attesting to his or her achievement.

After the conclusion of -the ecumenical and memorial service, by TFC Vice President Sid Pokladnik, and the informative reports, plus the election and installation of officers

by TFC President Walter C. Beglau, Brother Sid Pokladnik, the 1983 TFC President, announced that the Texas Fraternal Congress would be held in Temple next year, and he invited everyone to attend. Among other SPJST representatives elected to TFC posts were Silas Smith as 1st vice president, and Jann Wilson will serve as the secretary-treasurer on the Youth Counselor's Section again.

Before adjournment, everyone sang "God Bless America," accompanied on the piano by Sister Thelma Hrncir. This concluded another successful Texas Fraternal Congress gathering in the beautiful Texas hill country.

Item of Interest

Pac-Man will be chomping cigarette packs instead of wafers in Texas this fall as the state prepares for the sixth annual Great American Smokeout sponsored by the American Cancer Society.

The insatiable almost-circle will serve as the official mascot for the event in Texas through an exclusive authorization agreement by the Bally-Midway Company, owner of the Pac-Man copyright.

"This is a big state and we asked for Pac-Man's help," said Penny Reeves of Austin, volunteer chairman for the Smokeout in Texas. "We felt that busy mouth of his could chomp a lot of temptation from our smokers as the big day approaches."

The Great American Smokeout is sponsored by the ACS nationwide to encourage smokers to give up their cigarettes for just one day — November 18 — if only to prove to themselves they can.

A survey conducted by the Gallup organization last year indicated over 16 million Americans attempted to give up cigarettes on Smokeout Day. Nearly five million made it the full 24 hours. One to 11 days later, just under three million cigarette smokers were still not smoking.

"Texas traditionally goes all out for this event," said Reeves. "In planning our activities, we have tried to take advantage of that good ol' Texas spirit, and I think it shows.

We want to make this a holiday for the smoker."

Cities and towns throughout the state are planning rallies, parades and other celebrations to remind smokers of the day.

Pac-Man himself will appear at rallies in Fort Worth, San Antonio, El Paso, and Houston to chomp as many volunteered cigarette packs as he can.

In Dallas, Muse Air, the airline which does not allow smoking on its flights, is offering an all-expensespaid round trip for two to Disneyland in a drawing of pledge cards signed by the city's smokers.

Other communities throughout the state are planning similar rallies and events with involvement of Youth Against Cancer (YAC) groups, pledge booths at shopping centers and malls and support programs termed "FreshStart" for smokers who want to stay quit.

All Texas Smokers are invited to join in the fun. They may contact their local ACS volunteers or office for a pledge card, tips on quitting or information on locally planned Smokeout events.

U'eme se '6esky Let Us Study Czech!

Lekce §estadvacata — Lesson 26 The verb — Sloveso The verb is a word that indicates action by a subject, of a process, a state of a person or thing: The verb changes its form according to the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd person who performs an action; according to the time (present, past, future); to the manner of the action.

Every verb refers to a subject and time. bojujeme — my bojujeme (we are fighting NOW), whereas the nouns BOJ (fight) and adjectives (bojovny) bear no relation to time.

FINITE fornis of verbs express number and person contained in subject: Mluvirr, — I AM speaking.

NON-FINITE forms have a nominal character: budovani, stavkovani the ACT of building, striking, etc. ***

REFLEXIVE verbs indicate an action which is performed by the subject upon himself, Ex., mYti se, oblekat se, hrat si, ueime se.

Sometimes, the verb may be separated by several words from its reflexive pronoun: Kdyi se - po dlouhe dobe - \Tail doma.

In colloquial speech, we use the compound forms "ses" and "sis". which are the results of abbreviating jsi se (ses) and jsi si (sis). Thus: Ty jsi se nemyl becomes: Ty ses nemyl. Co jsi si ptal? becomes: Co sis pfai?

With some verbs se has no meaning at all, and are called "simple" reflexives.- Ex.: Divati se na nee(); coati se; ptati se, etc. There are about (it) verbs of this type. Many of t hem express physical or mental feelings; bat i se; diviti se; zlobiti se; chce semi,etc. ***

The Czech verb possess: 1) 3 tenses: present, past, future.

2) 2 aspects: imperfective, perfective.

3) moods: infinitive, indicative, imperative, conditional.

4) voices: active and passive.

5) 2 number: singular and plural; 3 persons (1st, 2nd, 3rd). ***

Some prefixes change the meaning of the original verb. Ex: if, lati PREdelati (To alter or change) psati — ZApsati (to write down, enter) platit i — PODplatiti (to bribe) jeti ujeti — (to abscond, make off) ***

Some verbs may take on 2 prefixes: z-pre-vraceti (to completely turn over everywhere) p, )-za-bijeti (to kill people all over the place) po-po-sednout i (to move over, while sitting) .** There are 2 negative participles in 'zech: 1 ) NE -- nemluvim, nedelam, etc.

2) NI — nikdo, nic, nijaky Two negatives do not make an affirmative: Nedelim nic; neznalm nikoho, nikdo nikdy nic nevi.

AN1 is used for TAKE in emphatic negative: ani on to nevi. .

ANIZ is used as a conjunction: Odjel, ani se rozloueil (he left without saying goodbye.) *** There is much more to the study of verbs, but for the more various "shaded" meanings and fine points, an instructor is needed.

SCHOLARSHIP Program For SPJST Members

calendar. They must maintain academic and personal standards satisfactory to the college and to the Committee. Continuation of a scholarship will depend upon the achievement of the individual recipient and the availability of SPJST funds for maintaining the Scholarship Program.

Criteria for selecting scholarship winners from among high school seniors include: • Results of the S.A.T. and/or A.C.T. • High school records • References and recommendations • The Committee's judgment of the applicant's potential

The Slavonic Benevolent Order of The State of Texas established a Scholarship Fund in 1982 to encourage young members to further their education and to help them achieve career goals. Funded by the SPJST and voluntary contributions by SPJST members, the Scholarship Program is administered by the SPJST Supreme Lodge as an investment in youth and in our economic and social progress.

MILITARY SERVICE AND ILLNESS If a scholarship recipient enters military service, the scholarship will be held in reserve for a period of up to six (6) months after the date of his/her release from service. Illness or injury that causes a delay in acceptance or continuance of a scholarship will also be considered good cause for holding an award in reserve.

Applicants who are college undergraduates must submit official transcripts of past college work with their application.

The Committee's decisions will be announced before the beginning of the fall semester.

TYPE OF SCHOLARSHIP Four-year programs leading to a Bachelor's Degree from an accredited institution.

The Committee has exclusive jurisdiction in selecting scholarship winners. It acts in an advisory capacity to the SPJST Supreme Lodge.

The SPJST assumes no responsibility for the conduct, personal affairs, or debts of scholarship winners or scholarship applicants and will not be liable therefore in any manner.

AMOUNT OF SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS
