DISTRICT III YAD IS A SUCCESS
Dear Members:
With well over 250 entry blank sorted into the various categories o Youth Achievement Contests we knew we had a big day coming.
Arts and Crafts were outstanding with 231 entries competing for 48 awards. Each year entries are better and next year simply must·see more room and more awards for t.his very busy contest.
Talent had 22 entries, but the junior group and individual, ages 15-19, should have more competition.
Beseda had three circles competing and six clubs competed with posters. Leaders, here again there is place for more competition.
Six girls and five boys competed for royalty. This is a variable competition depending on availabillty of proper age youth. Begin enlisting youth now to fill this need.
To all contestants, my congratulations. You are an extraordinary group. Many of you have worked from the very youngest age category. Now you are seniors. If you did not win, try again. Experience will help you to the top, if not in YAD, then somewhere
To Lodge 84-, a very heartfelt thank you! What a crowd you hosted. To all the youth leaders and assistants goes the credit of working as a team and making it possible to meet time schedules. To my assistant, Patsy Slovak, I owe a special debt of gratitude for evenings spent in preparation and a long clay Sunday seeing that all happened as it shouid. To Bessie Petr, still another thank you; she not only made arrangements but beautifully clecorated the stage for the . royalty contests.
This year our State ,Queen Janice and King Robert were the first to wear the new royal garb our district voted to procure for this event. This is always the highlight of a long day and I foresee that we will divide our YAD into two events. There is no way of shortening the time with the growing increase of entries.
Congratulations to all our first place winners. We will see you at El C'ampo and Linden Hall.

In a few days you are going to camp at Val Verde. On arrival. park your gear under a tree and come into the d;_ning hall to register and to receive a card to give the leader in your :abin Housing will be similar to last ;ear. You can arrange to be in the -same cabin if your pal is about your 1ge. When you find your cabin place your gear on your bunk to �e unpacked later. This will reserve it for you. Remember that one bunk must be freserved for the leader. -
What to take to camp: A change of comfortable clothing for each day, bed sheets, pillow if used, towels and washcloths, soap and other toi!et ar
ticles but very important: SOCKS to protect your feet from blisters, long pants for horseback riding, swim suits, and towels, and very, very comfortable shoes. Take a bit of money for the trading post even though refreshments will be served between meals. Leave your radios and other entertain-me gadgets at home, but if you ];ave a favorite record or a musical instrument you may bring these. Bring a flashlight, and leaders: have a watch.
Camp applications indicate that you must have said something nice about camp to your friends. We are very happy to include the Teens from District VII.
Arranged schedules give a freechoice period after lunch until 4:15. Only scheduled activities are those that give everyone an equal opportunity.
Party planning is your bit, Teens, so talk to your leaders and some up with some good ideas. You may serve as assistants if you wish.
Cook-outs will be in order for two nights. No camp-outs this year. If everyone is there by 2:30, we should be able to have swimming and possibly other activities befQre the Sunday night party. We have instructions to encl all activities ancl be in bed by twelve. Your camp directors want it that way, so whatever else, always be ready to participate. Be on time when an activity is schedule<:!. E.veryone else will be.
Have a very good time at camp. Whatev-er rules we may have are for that purpose. To you leaders, may I say you have always cooperated and you parents, who put your children in their trust, should know that they do not take this responsibility lightly. Instruct our youth to take care of these adu1ts! '.fhey make constructive camping possible!
See you August 2, at 2:30, at Val Verde.

Dear Readers,
I've been to camp this year and all I can say is that it w� terrific! Even though it rained, I still had a lot of fun.
I am sure ev.eryone knows that we lost our lodge home in a fire. Our youth club is trying in every possible way to raise money in projects.
The youth club received a very generous amount of money from Lodge No. 47, Seaton Star Hall. We appreciate it very much
Dear Readers, Sept. 20th the youth club of Lodge 2'5 had a meeting at the Citizens National Bank in Ennis, at 3 p.m. At the .tank, Jerry Laznovsky gave a speech on how people try to ruin the world; also how people are like birds. The way manufacturers dump wastes into our rivers and streams so that we cannot enjoy the benefits and pleasur�s of swimming and fishing and altlJ it kills fish, oysters, clams, etc. He qu?ted as an example, the Trinity River. When you get fish, oysters, clams, etc., be sure you find out where they came from. Make sure that there isn't a disease carried on it or it is not polluted. If the water is polluted don't buy the product or if the air is polluted, utop what you are doing, so you won't breathe as much of the air. If you do you may die in a few years. He said you should try to keep this from happening. Birds try to protect themselves and we sho1.1ld, too.

Dear Members,
As most of you know, Charlotte and :;: have been in the ho&pital. Charlotte, :.or minor surgery and a series of 'cests. She went in Tuesday, June 16 and was released Saturday, June 20. Charlotte is now doing fine and she wishes to thank all of you who prayed for her, came to see her and those who sent her card�, flowers and gifts.
Our trip to Six Flags was great. All who went, thoroughly enjoyed the trip. We wish to thank the mother lodge for the bus; this really meant a ]ot to our youth club.
On June 14 the mother lodge voted to have a bus at the E�k Hall for those wishing to go to Dallas Lodge 34 for YAD. Now, let's have a bus full so we can show the mother lodge how many wanted to go. Our mother lodge is r"ally backing her youth. Thank you, mother lodge so much. To the
children going, I am sure this is greatly appreciated. The bus will leave Elk Hall at 8 a.m. Sunday.
Parents, please make an effort to see that you and your family do go. This is an educational as well as entertaining day; to see the children perform, to see all the works of craft, to hear and see the king and queen contest, to see who are the winners of the point contest are, and last, but certainly not least, to meet all our .friends of district three.
Anyone in the mother lodge wishing to go, please f'eel free to make this trip with us, because we are anticipating a very enjoyable day.
Hoping to see the bus full on Sunday, June 28 at 8 a.m. in front of the SPJST hall at Elk, Texas. I am, Fraternally, Rosemarie Banik, Youth Leader ---0.t'c.JbJ.-

Dear Members,
It seems I am a little ln.te on my report but we wer,e on vacation and time just slipped away. My apologies to everyone.
Our regular monthly meeting of Lodge 35, Elk, was called to order on July 12 at 3:30 p.m. by President Henry Breitkreutz. Members of the youth club led us in the Pledge of Allegiance. President Breitkreutz welcomed our visitors who were Sister Wilma Nesuda and her mother Mrs. F. J. Haskovec, Mrs. Robert Stanisl::Lv and family and Mrs. Bertha Jander.
Secretary Bro. Albert Banik read the minutes of the last meeting. Bro. John Mach gave the treasurer's report.
.Youth Leader Sister Rosemarie Banik, rep�rtcd on the activities of the club. She thanked the mother lodge for the bus to Dallas. She also pointed out the things that the youth had on display. They were the things that the youth had entered at district YAD. Denise and C'hadc1tte entcjrtained us with the songs they sang at district YAD.
Sister Banik then introduced Sister Wilma Nesuda to speak. Sister Nesuda told us about the tragic fire at Lodge 25, Ennis. We were very sorry to hear of their great loss. She also spoke to us of the youth and youth activity day. She reminded all about camp and where it would be held.

Our regular youth meeti:n,g was well attended. Wie had a guest speaker, Mr. Wood, who is. our District III president. Thank you, sir, for your enlightening words.
One of our •charity projects decided on at this meeting was a $20 gift to the McLennan C'ounty Rleha:bilitat1on Cen. ter.
Also, We c.hose a duchess, Sandra Deii.trich. Sandra's mot.her was our first queen candidate to enter in a queen contest at a District YAD. This is really foll1awing in motheT's footsteps. After our adult meeting, we had a kite-flying contest. Winners in the fallowing categories were:
Highest kite - Vernon Wood III
Largest kite - Lisa Foyt
Smallest kite - Glen Gammage
Most disappointing kite - Debbie Dulo'ck.
Our judges for this contest were: Sisters Dorothy Bantk and Lads Camp, and Brothers Adolph !Berla:k and Billy Bordovsky. Thall:)_{ YOUi kindly.

Here and no:w, special thanl{s go to the Machs for letting us use their facmties. We decided at the adult meeting to make this day a combined. mother lodge and youth clu:b day.We will have a fatherson fishing contest, or mother-son, or imother-da.ughter, or father-daughter teams, a sack race, a three-legged race, a wheelba.rrow race, an egg throw, etc., etc. Just a plain old-.fashione:d. picni•c. Circle your calen:ctar for May 30. Sister Banik presented the birthday cake which was baked by Barbara P,echacek. Those having birthdays were Margaret Thun, Cynthia, Denise and Charlette Banik, David Dulock, Gaylon Dulock and our president, Bro. �odge 35 President Henry Brietkruetz, mt1·oducing President Nick Morris at the 70th Anniversary of Lodge 35, Elk.
Next month, our meeting will be held on May 1'6, at 2:30 p.m., during the mother lodge meeting. We will have a short program for our mothers. Try to attend and make it 100 per cent. Fra-teirnally, Rosemarie Banik, Youth Leader

The Lodge 84 annual picnic will be held on C'hildren's Day, June 14, at Bro. Sid Pokladnik's farm. Come join in the fun of hayrides for the children, and adults, along with fishing, horseshoe pitching, lunch, and lots more.

Dear Readers,
The junior youth and teen clubs of Lodge No. 84 decided to go to the East,ern Star Home in Arlington and �ntertain the elderly ladies there with all the talent entries we had f�r YAD. This is one of our charity proJects for the year. We were honored and surprL,vd to· see the followin� article appear in the official bulletm of the Grand C;hapter of Texas Order of the Eastern Star. This is sent to most members throughout the state.
"What a wonderful time we had July 24, when the Czech SlavonicBenevolent Order of Texas came. They put on a 'Czech' program, consisti:t;i.g of piano solo, accordion, clarinet cornet, and a complete orche,Jtra made up of one family. Have you ever seen the Czech Beseda?; w�ll you have missed a treat. We were ,J3rved Czech refreshments, and they were yummy. Thanks to Betty Olson, Past Matron of Grand Prairie Chapter No. 219 for this enjoyable program.·•
We had loads of fun doing this and talking with the ladies, and seeing the lovely .home. The old saying ?t's better to give than receive," is certainly true.

Dear Members,
Well, YOU COU!d cerLainly tell it was tbe day after the fair - our group at the meeting was small and very quiet.
Things livened up though; our youth and teens celebrated President Sid Pokladnik's birthday one day early with a big, big, cake. "Happy Birthday, Mr. President," read the inscription.
Punch, coffee and a variety of pas•try was also served from a beautifully decorated table - candelabra and all.
Brother Sid was happy to be remembered on this his day, and he thanked everyone. The best you could tell it came as a surpL ise, because as he opened tha door and "Happy Birthday to You" echoed through the hall, his opening statement was, "But you know I've quit having birthdays."

D�ar Readers,
This was my first year to go to SPJST camp and I hope I can go again next year because I really enjoyed it.
I especially enjoyed the horseback riding, hiking, swimming, and crafts. I met many people from different lodges and it was fun talking with them. I would lik,e to thank the SPJ8T for providing this camp and thanks to all the leaders and helpers.
I hope that our friends from Robs town didnot find their homes too badly damaged by the hurricane.
