Dear Fellow Workers, It really gives me great pleasure to be able to make a report as this one. Yes, you have done it again. This month's report reveals the greatest amount of Life Insurance written in any one month in the history of our SPJST. We issued certificates to 275 members for the amount of $425,500.00 of life insurance. We welcome District 5 on the honor roll of those who have reached their 1959 quota. Congratulations, District No. 5 organizers. This makes four of the seven districts who have reached their quota. I am also very happy to report that we have reached our quota state wide for 1959 and I hope that Districts No. 2, 4, and will take advantage of the fall harvests and start writting up their prospects so they too will reach their quotas. Once again I wish to thank all the organizers, Youth Directors , our youth, officers and members who helped us in anyway in securing new membership. Words alone cannot express how much we appreciate your efforts. With best regards, I remain Fraternally yours, Joe B.

Our Annual Fall Meetings in our lodges, with their custoouary election of officers, and this year's added election of delegates to the 1960 Convention, which will be held in San Antonio, and the appointment of the various lodge committees for the coming year, should move every member in our brotherhood to make a concerted effort to attend this important meeting of the year, to help delegate the responsibility of your respective lodges to deliberate future lodge work which will result in the present steady pace of growth in our membership, lodge activities and of our Fraternal Order. In these Fall Meetings, let's not depend upon the usual few members who generally attend the meetings and who delegate the responsibilities of their respective lodge to again just the few persons present who will accept the nomination to the post, but let's all take a lively interest in this phase of our lodge work and spread these responsibilities into a broader circle of our lodge membership. Let's bring out the many latent talents sleeping in our membership, for the enrichment and enjoyment of the lodge brothers and sisters. With our own personal attendance to cur lodge meetings, we can best assure the group of officers now at the lodge helm of our estimation of their valued work in our lodges and at the same time perhaps embud some "complacent" brother and sister into participation in the future activities of their lodge. We must never allow ourselves to sit back smugly and view with satisfaction the results of the past year, or past few years' activities and successes, but as progressive people in a progressive nation in a progressive Fraternal Order, we must go forward, we must strive for even higher goals of achievement in the coming year. In order to live, a person cannot sit still, but must go forward each day, so it is with any business or Organization. That member who can come to his lodge meeting and offer suggestions for the betterment of the lodge work, even though his suggestions are later vetoed, has gained respect of his lodge brothers and sisters; and what is more important he has gained in self statue, for his honestly meant suggestions. He should strive on, for in the process ofthinking, he will eventually come up with many ideas which can be incorporated in the lodge activity which will enhance the record

Wednesday; Novernber 4, i959 ' of his respective lodge in their activity. It is appropriate to stop a moment and acknowledge some of the older members who always bring some of that atmosphere of "old brotherhood" into the meetings, a brotherhood which was of a more spiritual nature that manifested now in this modern age. However, some of our old membership in office are "sleeping" on overtime, as pointed out in a previous article, and only because we, as members, avoid new appointments in our Annual Fall Meeting to positions of responsibility in our lodges. Now those that have rested the whole year through, let us turn .a new leaf, and put our shoulders to the wheel, whether that wheel is our Lodge or District. Never doubt, brother .or sister, that your personal help would bnwithout value; for even the smallest assistance helps any cause in our brotherhood. It's like the story of the mighty lion who was caught and tied by strong ropes, who was feed by the, tiny and insignificant mouse, who chewed those ropes in two to help the noble and mighty King of Beast in the forest. Even the smallest is important! In all of our Lodges there is need for a sensible division of our lodge work and in our Annual Fall Meetings, this should he kept in mind, during elections. A geo'd worker in the lodge usually has work over his head and the cry by the worker that he is over-burdened with all of this lodge responsibility is heard on many sides; cries that he is not allowed to let-up. We harness them into the various comittee positions just because there is no one else to put in there at the Annual Fall Meeting elections when these positions are usually filled. While the meeting is well attended in numbers, nominations to the different posts are not accepted by the nominees, and again the 'work horse" the good old faithful . Dobbin, is given additional responsibility. In your Editor's travels in the many localities, it has been his observation that much of the lodge work rests upon the shoulders of just a pitiful few brothers and sisters. This then puts the lodge in a choas when a member finally and definately resigns his position in the lodge; or when his Creator calls him Home. Then you lodge feels his loss which of course, is too late to do either much good. Hence, your editor earnestly requests that you bear this in mind in your election of officers meeting and divide your lodge work fairly and sensibly among yourselves.

1E—WEST,MAS This gives us an opportunity to delegate some of this responsibility to the younger membership in our midst. It is up to us to bring up our own future lodge leaders and here is the perfect opportunity to initiate them into this work. Of course, it takes a little understanding, a sprinkle of patience and a generous dash of good-will on the part of the older brothers and sisters. You will see that the younger members fit in very easily for they are still flexible and all of you will be happy to have them work with and among you. They are your children! Wonld you deny them? When we think of Junior Clubs, we automatically think of the future. Working with boys and girls is investing in the future. They become absorbed in the work and take more active interest as time goes by. Our various activities with them prepares them to take part in the scheme of things to come when they can transfer to the adult division. Training juveniles while they are young, would impress upon them the importance of the work, and why it is carried on. It would gradually instill in them a pride, an eagerness to be a part of the Society like their mothers and dads. It would also impress the youngsters with the sense of belonging to the, whole organization and give them a feeling of satisfaction. Little. League Baseball, Junior Clubs, Cultural units, all of these contribute toward the p lan. Is your lodge doing anything in this respect for the juveniles? If not, now is the time to start! We are becoming more and more aware of the importance of our Youth in our SPJST and we should give it more thought in those districts where nearly nothing was done on a large scale for them, because NOW is the time to select future leaders in our local lodges. — Let's take advantage of every oportunity. It has also been the Editor's observation that the Financial-Secretary in most lodges, has a heavy and responsible job, and he or she should have some reward. This important office is entitled to an appropriate remuneration for he or she gives much of their personal time at home, office, from the family, many weekends and many week nights to the management and collection of lodge finances with the membership, who do not care to take it to the meeting. In short, this becomes an imposition to the financial Secretary of their private lives. The handling and watching over the various accounts to keep them current and collected is no small matter to the Lodge, who stands to lose hundreds of

dollars if their Financial Secretary is not on his or her toes and keeps these accounts up to date. Let's remember these needs at our Annual Fall Meeting, so that, satisfactory and happiness in better lodge relations prevails. Any type of lodge work will be crowned with success when it is strengthened with the true love of its membership for the cause. Every lodge has an opportunity to create such a social life which would best answer its interest, so that , our Order, our whole fraternal brotherhood prospers. It cannot be denied that working in a lodge where peace and tolerance reigns; where its lodge officers have the backing of their entire membership, is the most enjoyable to work in. Our public, and our youth, is not very interested in so much what kind of people we were in years gone by, and what our pioneers achieved, as they are in what sort of people we are today and what goodness and usefulness we are to our fellowmen in this new age. Besides that, endless talking of the past will not help us much, except as a matter of historical record, for we then forget the present with its vast changes in our way of life, cur present day thinking and present day circumstances forced up on us. Our Order as well as each and every member, holds in memory the sacrifices and achievements of our founders, but at the same time, theee is a need to keep up with the pulse of time and orientalize ourselves to the needs to our present era. ,Certainly, we want our Order to become a modern fraternal organization, and certainly we want our Order to become one whose scope of, under standing and who can meet the needs of the membership of today! There can be no "Stand Still" for our fraternal Order! We must all realize this! Therefore, we must inake some allowances for the young blood in our Order. There will be more and more of this, brothers and sisters, remember this, at our lodge elections that will come in the future! Let us reconcile ourselves with these new trends of time, with the needs of that time, and hand in hand with our younger generation, let us continue to build even better in the next year, our beloved SPJST. May our next year be another successful one! The Editor ( 44 Can YOU fihord to be a "One Lang. sage" American? "Another Language will open nevJ horizons for you.

Dear Readers: Lodge Svaz Cechoslovanu No. 92 will have its regular meeting, Sunday Nov. 8th, starting at 2:30 p.m. This will be the last meeting before the election of Officers in December for next year.

Fraternally, Mrs. Bennie Soukup , FORT WORTH, TEXAS Dear Editor, Recently I wrote to you about sending your Vestnik to a refugee in one of the refugee camps in Europe. There are thousands of thes forgotten people in these camps. Wouldn't it be a friendly gesture for some of your readers to start corresponding with these people. Many of them are Czechs, Poles, Hungarians, all nationalities. Many of them or rather, most of them must remain there the rest of their lives because of TB or other diseases which prevent them from being able to work and move out of these camps. Still, they are our brothers and sisters, children of God. Let us bring a little cheer into their lives. I thought possibly you might mention this in your paper sometime. Anyone interested in writing to someone in these camps, write to the following address, giving your nationality, religion, age, occupation in order that they may go

In line with my duties as a reporter, my chief concern is that I report for our Dramatic Club. However, my rambling may go on, and perhaps a little off the subject, then it is up to the discretion of the editor to deal with me accordingly. To my associates of the Hlahol Dramatic Club I owe an apoligy. Partically right in the middle of rehearsals for the last play I chose to fly to the west coast for a visit to relatives. I spent two weeks weaving along the peninsula from Palo Alto to San Francisco and across the Golden Gate Bridge into the surrounding country side after a Jet flight from Los Angeles, a mere 45 minutes from take-off to the runway at destination, or the San Francisco airport. On my return to Houston I took up the serious business of resuming rehearsals and sewing and completing my costume for the play which was presented on October 18. I shall not go into details of the play except to say that Brother S. Valcik, our director, went to work on this play with unusual zeal and interest. In the first

Strana 21 place, he was handicapped by the scarcity of fitting plays, and not having enough appealing material on hand, he verry successfully blended ideas from plays he had and quite appropriately complimented this blend by using some of his folk-song records which he brought from Czechoslovakia. For this unusual presentation, we give him full credit. That the play was enjoyed, you have only to read letters by Ruby Holly and Frank Vytopil. Our thanks to both for their complimentary letters. The attendance was very god and the attention shown by the audience was more than appreciated. We certainly want to thank our friends and members for coming out. And a special word of thanks goes to Mrs. Frank Zimerman and her lovely daughters for the use of their wedding dresses which added so much charm and beauty to our play. Immediately following the play, some of the members of the lodge found them selves involved in preparations in connection with the convention of the Texas Fraternal Congress which was held at the Rice Hotel in Houston, Oct. 22 through 24. Assisting Brother Al Hilscher in registering guests, etc., it was my pleasure to meet and talk to friends from different organizations. In connection with the entertainment program during this convention I am grad to say that Lodge Houston Pokrok 88 as well as the Western Bohex, ian were well represented. The Blue Bonnet Waltz , directed by Sister Birdie Hilsher, was presented, in a number in which our members took part. It was a lovely number, indeed. The members of the Western Bohemian presented a drill in calisthenics which disylayed precision and skill. Brother Jos. Kos organized this drill. Before the Texas Fraternal Congress adjourned I had been toying with the idea of going to Dallas to attend the Czech Day celebration at the State Fair on Oct. 25. It was not difficult to carry out my plans for the weather was very favorable. Accompanied by mother and Mrs. Rose Anton, we arrived in Dallas on Saturday afternoon and headed for the new Sokol Hall on Greenville Avenue. Having missed the grand opening I was anxious to see it. This is a modern and attractive building with accommodations far surpassing any I have seen in Texas. The following morning we made our way to the Fair Park to attend the Czech Day celebration. This program consisted chiefly in the performances of folk dances, renditions of folk songs and other varieties of interest dear to the Czechs. It is remarkable how well

Strana 22 the "little people" of our Czech families are progressing in keeping with the traditions of our customs. The entire program was duly flattered by the colors and costumes so dear to us all, and after hearing and seeing the entire program in the vernavular one is again at ease knowing that our mother tongue is not being forgotten. The youngsters who participated in this program are to be complimented for knowing their parts so well and for their interest and cooperation shown to those in charge as it is no small matter to organize a group for an occasion such as this. I would like to mention the names of participants and directors of this group but since I do not have a complete list I would like to say that it is my understanding that most of the participants were from the Dallas area. I am always reminded of Sister B. Valcik during such programs. She has been a devoted director in the Czech circles for a number of years. Her enthusiasm is an inspiration to all. In conclusion, I want to thank Brother S. Valcik for including me in his party at the San Jacinto Inn. The members of the Illahol Dramatic Club who took. part in "D ye Svadby," were entertained at a dinner party Wednesday evening by Brother Valcik. We all had a wonderful time, and am sure that I speak for everybody present in expressing sincere thanks. Very sincerely, Naomi •Kostom 4 •

YOUTH CLUB TEENAGERS OF LODGE NO. 84 Dallas, Texas Dear Readers, Sunday, October 25, set the scene for the "Czech! Day" which was held at the State Fair of Texas in the Womans Building. It began at 10:00 a..m. and lasted until 1:00 p.m. The program was very well prepared and enjoyed by all the audience as well as passers-by. The whole program was in charge of our Mrs. Bessie Petr, our beloved "Mania Bessie" and as always she can put on an excellent program. But a program such as this was, cannot be successful by tbe dilligent efforts of a few people. It took the talent of each participant and every organization' SPJST as well as other organizations and all should be proud of their respective talent. It took the cooperation, fraternalism, as well as many other important factors to make the Czech Day bigger and better than last year's. The day was very beautiful, colorful as well as impressive. Many of those present wore their czech costumes. Many were origionals and many had been made here in this country, but one item they all had in common -®- they were

Wednesday, November 4, 1959 beautiful and those who wore them were willing to go through the work in preparing the costumes for showing as well as being proud to show off their Czech descent. Fraternally yours, James 3. Janousek A teenager of Lodge No. 84 o ‘,„ LODGE NO. 84 DALLAS Dear Members and Friends, A series of many weekly practices was brought to a climax last Sunday, Oct. 25, when Lodge 84's teen-agers performed at the State Fair Czech Day. The program was opened by our teen-age club singing the national anthem of America and of our beloved Czechoslovakia. We were led by Mr. Frank Henzen, a man who works with the teen-age choir for all its performances. Upon completion cf the son gs, the groups of dancers went down onto the floor to present the Beseda before a large group of Czechoslovakians and visitors of the day. The program was a lengthy one consisting of numbers from many and varying lodges and societies.

VESTNtIC----WEST,TEXAS TEENAGES OF LODGE NO. 84 Dear Readers, On Satmday, October 24, our Teen age club had an early Halloween and Beatnik Pat'. The Entertainment Committee thought that by having Halloween Party and for all the members to come dressed as beatniks. would be someilhing different as well ay enjoyable. That way it wasn't hard for any of our members to find an appropriate costume to wear. It was held for our members and their close friends. It was a. rather "private party" but it was agreed upon by the teenage mem, sership. It was a very nice crowd with a few new faces who we are hoping to see as members in the near future. It started at 7:30 p.m. and lasted until 11:30 p.m. From the looks of it it was a great success. I haven't talked to any teenagers, or chaperones for that matter who didn't have a good time. Actually that is the only way you can tell if a party is success not the amount of peopde but by the kind of time each one had. So I can truthfully say it was a success for all present seemed to enjoy themselves. Music ws provided by the record player. Carole Nemec and a few other teenagers furnished the records. Well it won't be long till the year comes to a - close. Our Entertainment Committee has enjoyed the year and we believe we have brought a few new things in. We are still planning two parties plus our big Christmas Party and Dance la te in December. Fraternally yours, Entertainment Committee James Janousek. Chairman ) •( LODGE 50 CORPUS CHRISTI Dear Readers, Our next meeting wil be held Nov. 8, 1959. On October 23, on our game night, we started playing volley ball. We enjoyed it very much. We had a nice group present. At my school we are making Christmas Cards like you would buy them. They have fuzz and are painted. I am looking forward to Thanksgiving 'cause my father and I are going fish ing. Now don't forget our next meeting on November 8th, we all plan on going skating. earn Peal

After our part had been done in the day's festivities we teen-agers went out for an exitir' e time on the fair's midway. Saturria , night, October 24, was not a "dead" night for our teen-age club. Though it was somewhat early, our Halloween party was held that night. Instead of coming in costumes and such, we each came dressed as those — ever talked-about "beatniks". The refreshments that were served fit in quite well with the "beatnik" theme. There were a good many teen-agers there and all that attended had an extra good time. Our sincere thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Willie Ondrusek, our Assistant Youth Director and her husband and to Mrs. Bessie Petr, our Youth Director, for coming to chaperone at this party. One last reminder to all our teen-age members that our next meeting will be held Sunday, November 8, at two in the afternoon. Please try to attend this reeeting. Another reminder to everyone to be sure to attend the Mother Lodge meeting on November 15. Your attendance at this meeting will be greatly appreciated and I'm sure that if you attend you will see how much is accomplished at such meetings. Until then , be good and keep smiling!

WEST, TEXAS Age Division, I was made the happiest girl alive. For it was then that I was crowned Queen of our Teen-Age Division here at Pokrok 84. I can not find words enough to describe the great happiness that I felt as your President, Mr. Sid Pokladnik, announced me as Queen of 1959-1960. Nor can I fully express the joy I felt as our own Juanita Janousek, last year's wonderful Queen, placed on me the magnificent crown. As I was presented my bouquet of red roses, and the many other gifts I received, I could only think of the wonderful people who made it nos, sible for me to earn the tremendous honor of being Queen.

Vt S TN tX— WEST, TEXAS proximately 100,000 white tail deer will be killed in the Nov. 16 to December 31 deer season. Deer hunting in the Austin area, which is done only by private lease of private land, generally is good, especially northwest of the city and around Lake Austin. Springs emphasized that all the land is private property, and hunters found on the land without owner's permission would be guilty of trespassing. In addition to the all-important lease the hunter will have to carry with him a hunting license issued by the Game and Fish Commission. It can be purchased in most hardware stores, county clerks' offices, and some drug stores for $3.15. It is good for any kind of legal game until August 31, 1960. The hunter is allowed only two deer per season and can bag his game with almost any weapon from bows and arrows, to pistols to rifles. The .22 calibre rimfire rifle is outlawed in certain counties. Bucks with more than two points are legal game in every area, and in some areas disignated by the Comi ydssion doe and spike buck are legal. In regard to the game laws of the state and the regulations imposed upon hunters to preserve Texas wildlife, Spring said, "Land owners are managing the deer crop like any other crop. The deer carried many ranchers through the drought and this crop of the land is being handled as such. There is no reason to fear we will lose our deer in the next 50 years or so." i4 )

GOOSE SEASON OPENED OCT. 26 Austin — The Texas wate ,fowl season opened at sunrise Oct. 26 on geese only according to the director of law enforcement of the Game and Fish Commission. The daily bag limit on geese is 5; provided such limit shall not contain more than (a) 2 Canada geese or its subspecies, or (b) 1 Canada goose and one white fronted goose. Possession limit is one day's kill. The duck season will officially get underway on November 13, when shooting will begin at 12 o'clock noon. After the first day, shooting will be permitted from sunrise to sunset. The mourning dove season in the North zone is closed as of Oct. 20. The mourning dove season in South Texas will not close until November 19, except in counties in the Rio Grande Valley, having a three-day whitewing hunt, where the season will close on November 16. During this hunt mourning doves could be killed also.
