debreho rietoliko po strance agitacni a organisaeni, ale tez z olaledu spoleeenskeho a pratelskelio, \. Lade z nick, ukazoval se zajeni o dalsi a lepAi praci.

A to je - hlavne nutiiosti u tech menSich a docela malych- radu, aby jejich pracovnici dostali povzbuzeni a nadSeni odjinud.

Bylo dosti na techto distriktnich schuzich, kteri rikali, ze-se teSi na sjezd Houstorm. MAI se'na nej i pisatel techto radkii, jiZ jen z toho dfivodu,'Ze sejde Se znovu s mnohYmi, ktere jiz nekolik let nevidel. Vlastne pro nic jineho. A kdy o torn zaeinam uvaZovati, nae je treba redaktora na sjezdu? Delegatem neni, rednikem take neni, tall .proe by se mu melo platit, aby byt pritomen sjezdu? jen za to poslouchani?' Ale jak se rika, elm jednou hrnec navre .

Obeas vyslovena je 'poznamlia, zdali prace, kterou predsjezdovV stanovni vYbor kona, je nem lepsiho nez co byvalo drive. Staki delegati se jeSte pamatuji, ze stanovni vYbor se kdysi volil aZpo zahajeni sjezdu, a pry -sjezd se odbyl o dva nebe tri ctny drive nez ty nove sjezdy." Je ri svata pravcIJ, -;re sjezd se "od byl" za tri dny. Ale licly2 si vezmeme zapisky ze sjezdu, rekneme, v Granger v 1912 nebo v Galvestonit v 1916, je toho pouhYch pare listu. Vybory byly male a rnalo jich, stiZnosti Lidne, a Volby "aklamaene". 2adne diSkuse o praci organisa,eni, Zadne potiZe s investicemi, penize se pajdovaly na 6%-7%, Medi-Indira se platilo $500 roene nebo $150 mesiene, a majetku nebylo ani ti etvrti milionu.

Tenkrate delegat, kterY se dostal na vYbor, povaZoval to za vyznamenani. Letos bucleme miti pies 200 delegate is jedna tretina z nick bude ustanovena do vYboovych, einnosti. Letn ,, dodatek ku zpra.y e jednoho arednika vezmo vice 'Casa nez' kdysi p(" Liani celYch /pra y vSech firednikn. Lela, je nutne. aby navrhy na zmeny a op.ravy stanov byly vyrizeny predem a za • izeny talc, by sjezd mel hladkY bell a nezdrZoval se mallekostml.

Sehtize pi.eckjezdot r yell vyboril stoji penize, ale je otazkou, zdali je lepAi platiti denni plat celeinu sjezdu anebo jen nekolika elentun vYborn. Sjezdy jsou nyni hodne nakladnejSi nez byly i kdysi. KaZda minuta sjezdu znamend dries velike vydarn, a proto veal, ktere se daji projednati . ve vYboreck,mcmely-by se protrasati zbyteene pied celYm shromaZdenim. Proto take ustanoveni presneho nebo aspon pribliZneho sjezdoveho programu melo by bYti nezbytnosti, aby kaZda minuta byla ptedem uvaZena, zda ji bude treba k tonau nebo onomu. To jsou veal, ktere si musime pozvolna prisvojiti a Sim se naucit. Distriktni schnze finely prO nas slouZiti trochu jako, generakii zkouSky, kde by se malichernosti promichaly, protrasly a odstranily.

Ve

doe 30. diamn 1952.

Sestra Hilda Brti g ova, tajemnice radu Svornost Jihu eislo 15 a zaroveri tajemnice distriktu pro Williamson, Bell, Milam okresy a okoli, na jinem miste upozorneni, o projektovane schtizi onoho distriktu, ktera bude v Holland na prvni necleli v kvetnu. TeZ jsem prislibil, ze se clostavim. Bude to devata distriktni na nil jsem byl pritomen -- a Zadne Vgez nick nelituji, ze jsem je chno nasvedcuje, ze budeme miti organisaeni oinnost a ze probudime zajem i u tech docela malYch iadtii, jen kdy'i organisaenim distrikttim venujeme vice p ochopeni. Jsou mnozi, kteri v torn nevidi Zadnou vYhodu nebo spasu. Ale jsou zase jinn, kteri se primlouvaji, abychom si distrikty zavedli. A kdyZ by pozdeji vybrani byli teZ schopni distriktni organisatori, snad dojde teZ na lep g i navStevit n domacich Nemuzerne ocekavati vehke a zazra'ene veci ani ad distriktti, distriktnich organisatorti a statniho organisatora za tYden nebo za mesic. Statnimu organisatoru bude treba poskytnouti tri mesice, snad pal roku, nez jeho planovani bude ukazovati vYsleclky. Statni organisator bude nucen predloZiti sviij konk • etni plan Hlavni aradovne nebo organisaenimu vYboru sestavenemu z elent Hlavni Araclovny. Pak bude organisator nucen na y Stiviti mistni organisatory, seznati jejich snaky a jejich prani, seznamiti se s pomery u domacich radii a hledeti zuZitkovat] einovniky, ktere nyni mame. Statni organisator nerntiZe prehliZeti ty, kteri aZ dosud snaZili se svedomite ziskavati novo eleny a nieli chvalitebne vYsledky. Statni organisator musi pracovati ruku v ruce s tend, kdo chteji a budou i nad.ale si prati podileti se na organisaeni einnosti.

Budou ovSent nekteri, kdo se organisaeni einnosti vzdavaji. Nebudou dosti odva2nYrni, aby se pustili do rychlej gho temorganisaenick kursti a pa, vzali na sebe vetSi zodpovednost. Nekteri ovSem vypadnou. Ale najdou se takovi, kteri setrvaji, a najdou se novi, kteri se ponevadZ budou videti v organisaenim piano moZnost Uspechu a budoucnost. A z techto schopnejSich a -vytrvalejSich bode statni organisator, se schvalenim Hlavni firadovny nebo organisaeniho vYboru, moci si vybrati distriktni organisatory. A proto snad odpadnou teZ namitky, ze nepotrebujeme ZadnYch plott a hranic kolem naSich projektovanYch Aby kakiy vedel a aby nebylo stiZnosti, ze jeden druhemu prebird prospekty, asi ze budeme nuceni oznaeiti hranice kaZdeho distriktu. 0 techto bodech bode statni organisator miti hodne lep g i predstavu nez my, kteri manic jen tu g eni, jak by organisaeni plan mohl asi Wit sestaven.

Ve stkedu, due 30. dubna 1952. asem se kaida libfistka, kaida vabiva prace a ka2dY konieek do jiste miry omrzi a easto ptina gi zklamani. Tak je tomu i s praci redaktora. Kdyt jsem pfevzal po zesnulem kolegovi Moudkovi jeho povinnosti, Veda jsem sam nejlepe, co mne oeekava a proti jakemu proudu musim jiti. Bylo tenkrate hodne netku, ze se yestnik neete, ze organ Jednotu piin g mnoho stoji, ze je to zbytedne vyhazovani penez, a 2e v katdem odpadkovem ko gi v nagich venkovskYch po gtach najdete Vestnik odhozenY. Veda jsein rozmer myth povinnosti. Veal jsem, ze bude tteba ode mne, noveho redaktora, smelosti a odvahy, abych vyburcoval na ge eleny 'z nevgimavosti, lhostejnosti a ospalosti. Veda jsem, kolik Casu pottebuje slu gne yedent organ a jen jsem se obaval, ze mne se toho drahocenneho Casu nebude dostavati. Vzal jsem redaktorstvi. Snad pfimelo mne k tomu vedomi, ze za podobnYch podminek tadnS7 jink, majici spraynY rozhled, by to ne yzal. Atka' mi jeden muj ptitel, ze nine nechape, ze prod jsem radeji nevzal nabizene misto na universite, kde plat byl by o 25% vy ggi a ptitom nebyl vystaven kritice etenaPkeyzal jsem redaktorstvi, praci hodne nevdeenou, ale tim vice na gim elentim pottebnou, Ze nevykonal jsem ani et yrtinu — ba co fikam ani desetinu prace, kterou jsem planoval a dosud planuji, je zavineno tim, ze jsem ptepoeital se ye svem volnem Case. Neni ta redaktorska prace jen sestavovani elankti, ale take hodne Cteni, hodne hledani a take trochu vlastniho hloubani. A pak redaktoru ptijdou dopisy a tadosti rani soukromeho, ponevadt etenati a elenove oeekavaji, ze redaktor poradi, kdy o tom byla zminka ve Vestniku. Pfikladne tento ty den odpovedel jsem jedenact osobnich dopist. A katclk takov' dopis vezme pa, deset a2 patnact minut a stale to ptipoie das by mel b'ti venovan organu, aby byl lepgim a odpadly nafky, e ho 2adnY neate. Ale pak zase ptijdou spey ky od Clenu, kteti rovne2 se snati, aby porhohli staveti lep gi spolek. Pfi Cteni techto ptispevkn chmurna, nalada se rozptyluje. Clovek poznava, ze katda cihla je stejne dulezita, aby zed' byla pevna.

Jsme jako ty cihly, mali, bezyYznamni, hodne stejni. Ale katdY pfispivame svou trogkou aby ta velika tiha tivotnich pomail se na nas neshroutila. Poma,hame jeden druhemu. A jestli redaktor sySrm usilim pfinagi povzbuzeni do na geho spotku, jestli Vestnik stal se popularnejgim, jestli pomalu ztraci se sti2nosti, 2e tYdenik je zbyteenost a vyhazovani penez, pak redaktor je i s tou malou trogkou sve prace do jiste miry uspokojen. Aspori naznaeil cestu, kterou jeho nastupce mate sledovati, bude-li miti obstojnou da y -kutrpelivost.

E S T N K -- WEST, TEXAS Ptal se bratr Hejtmanek z Blessing, a ptali se i jini odjinud, zda by redaktor mel volnY eas ptijeti ukazati filmy ze 2ivota nageho eeskeho lidu v Texasu. Zajezdem do Corpus Christi a do San Antonia vzbudil se novY zajem. Vgem zajemcum musim s poliitovanim oznamiti, ie nebude mono net na dvou mistech, kde jsem jiz dasno slibil: v Bryan a v Hillje.

Ale byl bych ochoten zapiljeiti vgechny sve filmy — a trvalo by to gest hodin — ku promitani kamkoliv, kde bych veal, 2e filmy a pfistroj budou ye spolehlivYch rukou. Kdy2 by na gi hlavni fifednici chteli kdekoliv ukazovati, filmy jsou jim k volne disposici. Pti jejich zajezdech byl by to dobrS, "ptispevek ku zpestfeni spolkoveho programu.

Pfiglo upozerneni, ze Tiskovk vSibor nedodduje zneni a natizeni stanov, aby VCstnik byl vazan dvema dratky. 0 tomto bylo vysvetleni jit dvakrat, 2e tiskarna dostala povoleni na objednavku dratu jen etvrtinu mnotstvi, Ake objednavala dfive. Vladni odbor, kterk tyto regulace vydavava, sotva vi, ze se takovSnn natizenim znehodnucuji nage stanovy, a asi Indio dba, zda na g TiskovY vStbor bude nasledkem teto regulace kritisovan. Mt& se stati, ze tiskarna nebude miti dosti dratu, aby na ge nove stanovy ddely pohromade.

O tech piedponach s- a z- chce vedeti ieden e'en, kterY pi ge, ze redaktor neco natknul a nedopovedel. Uptimne teeeno, ntedlotky s—z piisobi potile i dobremu eegtinati. Je tech pravidel nekolik, a, zde uvadime jen to nejjednodu ggi. Pigeme "s", kdy slovo mini shora dole, odnekud °rye nebo dohromady, jako slo2iti (neco s vozu na zem, nejakou rYmovaeltu) nebo svolati (dohromady). Pi geme "z", kdy noznavame, tie slovo ma vSrznam, ze neco ueinilo, stalo, vykonalo nebo promenii n iako zkfiviti, udelati kfiy(rm; zkratiti, kratkYm; zchudnouti, stati se ehudYm; zkaziti, zmeniti na hor gi. Takte2 pigeme "z", kdy poznavame, ze vS7znam slova je nozmenen ye smyslu "vzhiltn", jako zvY giti, zpygneti, zdvihnouti, zburcovati. Tyto potite pravopisne jednotlivec ptekona • jen stalkm cvikem a onakovanim, cot u mladete zde zrozene je tetkosti.

Pomalu se tyto redakcni tivahy protahuji a stavaji del gi a delgi. Snad bude na ease ptedisti si sjezdova pravidla, aby redaktor se omezil na jednu stranu redakenich fivah a na jeden pavodni elanek.

Dokud v ga,k elenove nereptaii, ze je tech redaktorskYch rozumil pfespfili g, budu se snaiti vypiniti aspofi tfi stranky v Ceske east' a jednu stranku- v anglicke &Asti myglenkami vlastnimi. Do sjezdu to vydriime, a sjezd mo2na, 2e pro celY Vestnik na,znaci jine regulace.

RAWL CECIIOSLOVAN

DYZ BY SE nekdo ptal, jak se vydarila distriktni schtze konav sini radu aechoslovan eislo 40 v Hillje dne 20. dubna, nebo mela-Ti jak aspech a spolkovY yYznam, mohli bychom opakovati vYrok jedne spolusestry, ktera po schazi lekla to od srdce: "Takove schtize rune opravdu zajimaji a mely by zajimati kaZdeho, protak jsou pouene, zvla gte kdy se probiraji ureite veci, ktere jsou pro dobro Jednoty."

Pisatel techto ladka dojel do schuze trochu pozde. Ceti cele dopoledne karta.Cove otisky vSeho toho, co bylo vysazeno pro pfigti eislo Vestniku. Vzalo mu to hodne 'Dices poledne, a proto do schttze dostavil se, kdy jednani bylo v pinem prou du.

Neni amyslem redaktora, aby temito ladky plebiral tajemniku schuze, bratru Vaclavu Hradeckemu, jeho funkci. :ode bude jen osobni pozorovani, jen povrchni zminka, a spi ge odhadnuti a oceneni celkove schtze.

Navgteva byla zdalila a priabeh schfize byl hladky pod lizenim pPedsedy distriktu, bratra Gajevskeho. Kteti zastupci tarn byli, kolik radu bylo zastoupeno, ri hlavni arednici a reditele, to bude v zapiscich tajemnika Hradeckeho.

Vge nasvedeovalo, Ze pledseda GajevskY mel program schtze (Male pron-iyslrn. Postupoval od jednoho bodu k druhemu, ac nekteici z mluvicich se nekdy vraceli k vecern jiZ prodebatavanYm a hlasovanim jiz vylizenYna. Prvnim bodem na progranau byla otazka, zdali by zastupci si plan viastni budovu pro Hlavni aradovnu. Jak bylo, redaktoru pozdeji °madmen°, o veci byla jednano je gte neZ pisatel dojel, .a odhlasovano bylo, aby delegati do pligtiho sjezdu prcnili se, by otazka budovy byla prenechana sjezdovemu vYboru k tomu ustanovenemu.

0 deco pozdeji jeden z hlavnich arednika. vratil se k tomu predmetu a prohlasil, zedle jeho presvedeeni na ge Jednota by mela miti svaj domov. "Kde budova pm astredi ma bYti postavena, nebudu vam zde radit," -poznamenal onen hlavni urednik. "Ale kdy budeme miti na g domov, kdy nag e propagaern letaeky budou ukazovati, ze mame slu gnou budovu, ze mame svaj domov, pornak nara to v nagi agitaeni praci." Upozornil teZ, ze je to odborna otazka, ma-li se budova stavet nyni, ma-li bYti ye stredu Mena, nebo v zernOpisnem stredu, statu, ale tyto body by mely bYti prenechany vYboru, kterY by o nich uvaZoval.

Aekne se snadno, dati to vYboru. ale je otazkou, jakYm zpasobem bude onen vybor volen. Dejme tomu, ze polovina vYbo-

ru bude vybrana pfedsedou sjezdu, a on grave ma nejakY osobni zajem. Nevime dnes, kdo bude sjezdovYm Pledndou, ale vYbor takovY mel by bYti vybran nejakYm zpasobem samotnYmi delegaty a ze vgech easti•Texasu, pripadne z kaZdeho distriktu, kdy by na distrikty doglo.

DalSim zajimavYm bodem debaty ye schitzi v Hillje byla atulna. Redaktor rad slygel z fist jednoho hla,vniho feenika, "oeekavd se, aby arednici podali v teto veci sve dobrozdeani a odporueeni." Znelo to tak platelsky, tak opravdove a tak slibne, ze nejeden z lads posluchaoti jsme se narovnali a utichli, abychom odporueeni a dobrozdani spravne vysiechli. 8ko cla, ze zmineny drednik se v dal gim vysvetleni zastavil. Bylo toliko oznarneno,1 ze na prgtim sjezdu vYbor pro atulnu dostane "rozpodty od rfiznYch fitulen".

Po tomto prohlageni bylo odhlasovano, aby vec atulny byla, na sjezdu legena vYborem k tomu vybranYm. Nekteli z pritomnYch organisatord se vyslovili, ze zavedeni lepMch vYhod v Nemocenskem odboru by Jednote znaene prospelo. Oleni i nealeni se snad ptaji, zdali mame -drazovou a nen-rocnieni pojistku. Vyvstala dosti zajimava, debata, ktera se prodluZovala, az jeden z hlavnich firednikti prohldsil, ze bychom za thn ffeelem museli si poriditi z ylagtni odbor. V teto veer je redaktor hodne nechapavY a nedovede poraditi. Asi ze se jedna o nahradu Casa, kdyZ je elen nemocnY. Podporu v pripadu firazu aneb nemoci jiZ mdme, a je dosti obstojna. kde 'den plati rodne $12.00 a stake se, ze jeho lekarske a nernocnieni vYdaje jsou pi $150, podpora obna2Si $144.

Anebo za $9 rocne $108 podpory stoji za povAimnuti Nernocensky odbor operuje na podkladu, ze podpora je dvanactkrate vetSi neZ, poplatek. A koneene vyNo jevo, ze nas NemocenskY odbor je takova zapornenuta Popelka a Ze je to vlastne jeden rad, kter' plihlasil do Nemocenskeho odboru tolik s yYch elena, ze to eini vice neZ jednu tretinu vgech hlagek. jinYmi slovy, vice neZ jedna tietina tech, kdo se prihlasili do Nernocenskeho odboru, path k jednomu radu, a zbYvajici d ye, tretiny jsou elenove od padesati jinYch radil. Pres sto radii nema, pfihlageneho ani jednoho elena do Nemocenskeho odboru. ftekla to ona sestra docela trefne, ze takove schuze jsou zajimave i pou'ene.

Predseda Marek, kterY po osm roka vedl organisaeni odbor naSi Jednoty, prones' ye sve reel vYrok, ze na priStim sjezdu bude tleba plistoupiti na jinY zpilsob organisaeni grace. Takov' vYrok ma, vat hu, kdy prijde od areclnika, kterY po

mnoho roku pasobil v tomto odboru. Asi Ze jiZ ma promySlenY a vypracovanY novY plan, kterY prednese bud' pied sjezdem prostrednictvim Vestniku, anebo as na sjezdu. Bylo by Zadoucno, aby delegati byli s jeho novYrn planem zaveas a dostateCne obeznameni. Budeme-li se vgim eekati aZ na, posledni dny sjezdove, moZ na ie nebude dosti easu na zrale uvaeni noveho organisa,eniho planu. Vklyt' ani kure se nevylihne ve trech dnech.

Poslednim zajimavYm bodem byla otazka menSlho zastoupeni na sjezdu. Bylo a teto veer napsano pojednani jiZ minuleho tYdne, proto neni treba opakovati dfivody pro a proti. Pozoruhodne bylo, Ze vgichni pritomni firednici i reditele hajili stanovisko, ze kahlY fad, i ten sebemenN, ma miti zastoupeni na sjezdu. Hajili demokracii. jk, ) Itad

Krasne a radostne vyznela eeska, slavnost nagich studentil na, universite Texas, tohoto odpoledne. Poprve v dejinach tohoto slavneho sidla vedy a umeni se tu konala deska slavnost v takovem velkolepem metitku. SvYm vYzna,mem a pestrosti ptipominala tadu historickYch slavnosti, jako byl, CeskoslovenskY den v Dallas roku 1936 pti stolete vYstave; nebo 1926 na HostYne pri navgteve kardinala Kagpara z CSR, anebo 'CeskoslovenskY den na Kolleji Jezerni Pani, pH letni gkole v San Antonio, 1937.

Ale podatilo se mil' to pkec tak dalece, to Fritz porozumel.

Nahlednuti do druhe ttidy Videriaka lakalo, rovneZ posezeni v hospflce, ✓ t •eti tfide poli •ekoval. A koneene se mu zde naskytovala hletlana ptile2itost seznamiti se skuteenYm znalcem Ameriky, a majetnYm elovekern.

Washington dodaval: "Do tteti tfidy mezi ty lidi ji2 nebudu moci jiti . . ."

"Prod" byste nemohl? Jen at' se nekdo opovai proti vain zdvihnouti ruku! Tomu by Fritz Hofrichter ukazal!"

JiZ z techto slov ptelcypujicich vychloubavosti poznal Zavora, to ten atok na hello i Fritzovo za.krodeni bylo nastrojenou komedii. Fritz byl s chlapy smluven a proto jim mohl tak beztrestne rozkazovati.

Mezitim stanuli oba na palube druhe tNdy. Mnoho .cestujicich se dosud prochazelo po promenade kolem zadi, bujnejSi. z nich se setazovali v husi pochody a za prozpevovani kraeeli od prosttedku kdi kolem zadi a nazpet; '2erty a SprYmy prSely na hlavy pokojnej gich cestujicich. Vesela nalada vladla mezi vaemi. Cestujici poditali, ze onen veder jest ptedposledni jejich plavby, a byli radi, to meli po celou cestu doposud snesitelne poeasi.

Zavora, nasledovany Fritzem zaali, nebyySe nikYrn po ySimnuti, do kutarny. Ta, byla jeSle skoro prazdna. Jen v jednom rohu, kolem etyt nennavnYch karbanikn kupila se \hromadka kybicil. Tarn u toho stolu cinkaly penize a chvilkami zaznelo zakleni nebo hrubY smich. Novi piichozi zasedli si do zapadleho rohu na druhe strane a objednali si napoje. Fritz pil eerne hamburske pivo, Zavora si dal vino s vodou. Ameriean se ptedstavil Viderialtovi jmenem George Smith a udal za cil sve cesty Boston. Viderialt tekl, ze cede do New Yorku, ale to mysli, se pcdiva dale do zeme. Hovotili spolu chvili, ania by bylo padlo jedine slasko o tom nae mysleli oba, o eveeti, jet bylo neptimou ptieinou jejich seznameni se. Fritz se chlubil tim co vSe urni a vyptayal se na americke pomery. Washington odpovidal ochotne a neptestaval sveho noveho ptitele do oei vychvalovati. Koneene se zeptal Washington: "Prot se ti lide tam dole na mne tak rozzlobili? Prcto2e jsem miuvil s vaSim deVeetenr? To je divne."

"Ano, je to od nich hloupe. Ale oni nevedi, co se slu g a path. Jsou to hloupi polninkove."

"Vy byste ovSem mohl namitati ozval se Zavora .

C.!

Strana 14 "A prod bych Mal? Ja vim co se sluai a path! V tom nevi nic zleho. kdy je s jednim zasnoubeno, ma piece pravo promluviti a pobaviti se s nekYin jinYm." Washington vida, ze se pideinenim ctazka neptirozene situace razem vyjasnila, prikyvnul, Hofrichter pokraeoval: "Co se mne Wee, rozumim yeci, a byl jsein radeji, kdyz mluvila se sluanYin ne21i s nekterYm tarn z tech himpri. Proto jsem vas nechal na pokcji, a kdybych byl jen ae se to druhYm pried, byl bych si jejich projevy predem zakazal."

"Mate mezi nimi velke slovo, ae ano?"

"Ti lide poznavaji, se mezi ne nepatrim, ae jsem z lepai spoleenosti a take si nine Yak. Co •eknu je svate. Dostal jsem se do treti tridy se svou snoubenkou pouhou nahodeu. Kdybych byl chtel eekati na pidati lod', byl bych mohl jeti druhou nebo treba prvni tridou. Stalo se to takto .. ."

Washington Zavora, jen velmi dobre ✓edel, pace nejel Fritz lepai tridou, byl zveday , jake asi vysvetleni si tento vymysli, a byl .vskutku prekvapen nosti videfiskehe blatoalapa, kdy mu prijel do Hamburku tento vypravel, s aekem na dva tisice marek, Ze ale byla neinena ye jmenu jeho chyba a proto musel bYti aek zaslan zpet do Vidne k novemu overeni. A ne211 by eekal na to, as mu budou penize vyplaceny, od hodlal se zakoupiti za to, co mel u sebe, mista y mezipalubi na rychlelod, ponevadZ chtel bYti v Americe pckud mo'2no nejdele pied vanocemi. Penize dal si zaslati za sebou do New Yorku. Proto ze je tedy v mezipalubi, kam, jak je na, nem jiste videti, nepatri. Fritz yypravoval tutu historku s takovYm picesved'denim v hlase, jakoby ji sam veril, a y e Washingtonovi zapasila chut' dati se to vylhanosti do smichu s chuti odmeniti pravdcmluvneho dcbrodruha ranou pies fista. Potlaeil ale obe chuti, a s vd'2-nou tvari see zeptal: "Nejste tedy prozatim v zavideni hodnem postaveni!"

"Oh, to nic nedela," rekl s vysoka Videriak. "Ted' ovaem jsem apine bez penez, ale fiejdele za tYden eekani v Uew Yorku bude miti penize v ruce." . 'Nu, a kdybyste do to doby potteboval yYpomoci, vite, na koha se mate obratiti," rekl mladY Chica2an, na jeho2 neet a za jeho2 penize dobrodruh do Ameriky jel.

"Ted' to mam v hrsti," pomyslili si oba dva najednou, jeden o druhem.

TiSi souperi roman se teprve po dvou hodinach. Washington pozval Videriaka na priati veeer . apet do hospildky. Nepral si ale jeho pi-itomnosti za dne, kdy by byl mohl navatevnik nekde prijiti na jmeno Zavora a pojati neduveru. Tam, v zapadlem koute hospadky nebylo ne-

"Neprijdete se tedy zcela jlste padivati k nam dolft? Ujiat'uji _vas, ae se nemate deha obavati."

"Ne, neprijdu, Nejsem pritelern neprijemnosti."

"A nebude se vain po nekom stYskati?"

Washington vida, 2e prohnanY spaleenik Annin narali na svoji spolucestovatelku, odvetil vyhYbave: "Col je to platno?"

Videnak nalehtil ale dale: "Ani na to nemyslite, ae se bude nekomii stYskati po vas?"

A pH tam, stoje jiZ na schfidkach za zabradlim zahrozil prstem.

"Aha, bude nil ji chtiti vnutiti," pamyslil si Zavora, louee se se s yYm hostem poslednim "good night". Bude mi ji chtiti povesiti na krk, aby mel v Americe volne ruce. Dobra. Dame se panem Fritzem Washington neael do sve kabiny, ani do jidelny, kde prave koncertovada lodni kapela pro cestujici druhe tridy. UchYlil se se svYmi myalenkami na nejvyak zadni palubu, na lavieku, na nil se byl poprve na teto ceste setkal s mladou detektivkau. Na cele teto easti paluby nebylo ani Zive dune. Vaichni cestujici druhe tridy byli bezpochyby v jidelne na veeernim koncertu lodni kapely.

IIISTORIE TRANSFUSE KRVE.

IVIyglenka transfuse krve neni nova. Jeji stopy nachazime jiZ y e staroveku, avgak rtizne nabolenske zakazy a nizka &oven soudobe vedy po dlouha staleti znenio/novaly jeji uskuteeneni. Pohledneme-li na historii transfuse krve, zjistime, ze ,krovne fispechy se east° strida,ji s neftspechy.

Prvni fisek historie transfuse krve saha od nejdavnej gich dob do roku 1628, kdy Harvey objevil zakony krevniho obehu zvitat a lidi. Hippokrates se ye smyslu starYch lidovYch tradic domnival, ze dugevni neinoci nutno leeit krvi. fteeti a rimsti basnici jiZ da yno pled nagim letopoetem psali o torn, ze starce lze ornlazovat krvi mladych, ha vynotila se myglen.ka nedavat krev pit, ale vlevat ji do Zil zestarlYch lidi.

V literature se s m;,slenkou transfuse krye, to est s vlevanim cizi krve do krevniho obelm, setkavame po prve v gestnactem stoleti u lekare Cardania. Natal tehdejsi pisatele dokonce popisuji stroje, ale je nepochybne,;ze zakrok, at' u2 se podaril nebo ne, byl preclem odsouzon k nezdaru, protole tehdy je gte nebyly znamy zakony krevniho obehu.

Poeiltkem secinmacteho stoleti revolueni kvas vehni zvyguje zajem o pfiirodni vedy. Roku 1628 vydave. William Harvey jako v*sledek sve dvanactilete prate proslule dilo o zakonecly krevniho obehu, a tim zaeina druhY fisek historie transfuse krve. Hotter, kterY se fieastnil HarveyovYch pokusti, vyslovuje nazor, ze by bylo moZne prelevat krev z jednoho zvirete do druheho. Prvni Uspe gnou transfusi krve na zviratech, z jednoho psa do druheho, provedl roku 1666 Lower. Prvni transfusi

Vec se dostala aZ do zernskeho snernu, kterY transfusi pod hrozbou telesneho trestu za,kazal. Tato okolnost a mimo to i netispe gne pokusy o transfusi krve v jinYch zemich zpusobily, Ze transfuse krve upa,dla 'opet sic ceie stoleti v zapornenuti.

Prvni takovouto transfusi provedl roku 1819 profesor Blundell. Blundell uZ k tra,nsfusi krve pouZil mosazne strika,oky, ktera techniku zakroku znaene usnadnila. Od to doby se transfuse krve v ruznYch zemich stale vice gitila. Zdokonalovaly se methody, byly ueineny vYznamne theoreticke a praktieke objevy.

Vedle &peen se v gak ukazovaly i vaZne nedspechy transfuse krve byly dasto spojeny s vaarimi korciplikacemi. Tyto nenSpecii,y jsou dnes pochopitelne, v2dyt' krev byla brima bez vYberu, nebyly znamy rtizne krevni skupiny. Zivy spor se vedi dokonce o to., zda by nebylo fieelnejsi pouZivat k transfusi krve zvirat a nikoli krve lidska. Je tedy Poehopitelne, ze tehdy jegte nebezpeena, methoda transfuse krve, kdy2 se zaealo uZivat domnele mene nebezPeeneho vstlikovani fysiologickYch rortokti, na, priklad kuchyriske soli a jinYch, byla na sklonku stoleti opet zatla,aena na dva,cet let do pozadi.

Roku 1901 zadina tketi fisek historie transfuse krve. Karl Landsteiner upozornuje, ze v krevnim plasmatu norrnalniho eloveka se eervene krvinky jineho zdra veho eloveka ea,sto shlukuji. Landsteiner take ureil zakonitost techto jevu a po dilkladnem badani, dospel k vYsledku, ze na, zaklade shlukovani eervenYch krvinek lze lidi zaradit do tri krevnich. skupin. Roku 1907 6eskY psychiatr Jan Jansky a roku 1919 nezavisle na, nem Moss pripojili k Cerrito ttern skupinam ot yrtou skupinu.

Na. zaklade techto vYzktunti bylo zrejrne, ze k transfusi krve lze pouZit jen krve eloveka se stejnou krevni skupinou, a tim se vysvetlila i prieina nezdard transfusi krve v minulosti. Jakmile se krevnich skupin zadalo dbat, transfuse krve se staly bezpeenej gimi. Transfuse dostala vaZnY vecleckY podklacl.

Hromadnemu pouZiti transfuse krve vadilo jegle to, ze p1-i nekterYch methodach se krev psi zakroku sraZela, a prii-,troje se ueviivaly. Odpomohli tome. roku

Tak byly d'any v gechny predpoklady k hojnemu pouZiyani transfuse krve za prvni svetove valky. Presto se transfuse krve v prvni valce roz girila pomerne nepatrne. To lze vysvetlit ze vedecke objasneni otazky transfuse krve a praktickou kontrolu methody nebylo moZno na zaeatku valky je gte povalovat za spolehlive rozregene, tvrtY fisek historic transfuse krve za eine, tim, ze vypracovana byla methoda plipravy standardniho plasmatu k ureoyarn krevnich skupin, dale theorie fieinkoveho mechanismu prevadene krve, methody a predpisy na pi-evod tak zvanYch krevnich skupin, otazky shromaZd'ovani a konservace atd., a bylo take vygkoleno velmi mnoho lekaft a strednich zdravotnickYch kadru pro praktickou transfusi.

MUSINGS OF THE EDITOR BEFORE TAKING UP other matters of general interest, your editor would like to comment on the number of special meetings which had been held here ana there. It is true that we have the convention real soon and that the members would naturally be inclined to talk about many things. But there seems to be something else than the convention. We may say that the idea of having several organizational districts has something to do with the extra meetings.

So far, there were seven meetings of this type; three in Wharton county, one in Houston, one in Taylor, one in Corpus Christi, one in Needville, and there are to be two more in near Inture. The next district meeting will be in Holland, comprising six surrounding counties. The Holland meeting is next Sunday, May 4. The other meeting is planned by the Southwestern District shortly before our convention and it may likely b, held again in Corpus, unless the lodges around San Antonio insist to have it there.

THE MEETING HELD IN HILLJE on the 20th of April was well attended, admirably conducted, and thoughtfully arranged to bring out many interesting points in discussion. Five topics of discussion stood out clearly: permanent headqaurters for . the Order, Home for the Aged, improved sickness and accident protection, better field men under a state organizer, and the future conventions with better system of representation. One thing was noticeable -- the absence of members from several small lodges. That point should be taken up at every district meeting to Work cut a plan which would bring to the district meetings several representatives from every lod g e in the district. + ♦

IF SOMEONE POINTED to a brick will and asked you which brick is the most important, you, would consider his question slightly queer. Bricks are small things. But taken together they make a strong wall which may tower upward Many stories. Each brick is important in its support of many tons of weight above it.

OUR JOBS, OUR LIVES, even our membership in the SPJST are like that. We sometimes feel that our personal work or our personal interest in the home lodge or the entire SPJST Is not important. Sometimes we envy those who are leaders, who do greater things. We even let ourselves down mentally and emotionally, and fall into a pessimistic pattern of thinking, "Ala, what's the use.

Others are running things to their ing, and it doesn't make much difference anyway,' for I am just nobody, I can't do much."

TO STIMULATE INTEREST in the work of the lodge, and to maintain the unity of the membership, various plans must be followed and carried out. There must be a great variety of entertainments. These things cannot be left to be worked out by the officers alone, or by a few members. Every progressive lodge must have at least five, six, or even more committees. There should be mother and daughter meetings, father and son meetings, annual banquets, family nights, dinner dances, evening dances, honor nights, birthday parties, picnics, district gatherings, amateur plays, moTHERE IS A LOT MORE to my mem- vies, card parties, bingo games, fish fries, bership in the SPJST than just belong bazaars, and so on.

SHOULD OLDER FOLKS LIVE ALONE? • In the Czech section there has been a series of discussions regarding the topic of providing a Rest Home for Older Mem bers. Your editor found and article on the same subject, written by Paul H. Fluck, M. D., and published in the March is-me of Journal of Living.

This doctor says that older folks should live alone, and he also tells why. It may not be the answer to our discussions, but it may set you thinking. e Was the Declaration of Independence written only for young folks? As a family doctor with a lot of older patients on my list, I have often wondered. No age limit was mentioned for liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Still, in too many American homes, both seem to end at 65.

Of course, I have met happy old folks. have lugged my medical grip into hospitable homes where the grandfather can light his pipe and where little girls kiss their grandma good night. But for every one of these congenial households I can remember at least three others where Grandma and Grandpop were miserable -- where they had little free. dour or happiness, where it seemed almost as though thy were being held for a ransom. In particular, I remember Aunt Julie and Billy Mathews, who clinched the argument and convinced me that older ,folks should live alone. ` Aunt Julie sagged back in her chair.

Now that the dishes were done she could rest — unless the baby cried! Then the telephone rang and Aunt Julie hobbled over to answer it.

"Yes, Clara. Yes. I'll take care of it, Clara. Good-by." Aunt Julie's gray head hung heavier and her tortured knees trembled. Things were always hazy, but they had never been so hazy as this.

She glanced back at her chair, but she musn't sit down now. Clara was bringing the girls over for a hand of bridge. She would have to' hurry to straighten up 'the living room, in time.

When I stopped an hour later to make 'my regular weekly call, the card party was going full blast. As usual, Aunt Julie had scurried upstairs. Her hairdo and her clothing wouldn't pass inspection by fashinonwise eyes. Now, holding the baby, trying to quiet a tantrum, the old lady looked more bony, more deplorable than ever. Aunt Julie had been a husky woman once. She had hoed her patch and reared six young ones of her own. But at 80 she had her hands full keeping Cla,ra's house and taking care of little !

Sammy. Aunt Julie was held for ransom!

Ten years before she had confided to me that she was going to live with Clara. Keeping her own house was too much for her tottery legs, and the offer she had for her little stone cottage tinkled in her ears. With that money in the bank she could pay her own way.

She would never have to "go on the welfare."

Scarcely two years later, I helped Julie fill out those welfare forms. Her savings had paid off Clara's mortgage and bought George a new car. Now, practically penniless, ,she had to ask the county for help. She was granted a $25 allotment each month to cover her living expenses. Clothing? Nobody ever thought about Aunt Julie's clothing. Doctors aren't suposeci to notice things like that, but Aunt Julie's underwear was nothing but rags. And she wore the same rags month after month.

Aunt Julia has paid her ranson now, but I think of her whenever one of my elderly patients asks my advice about going to live with a son or daughter. For years I was always too professional. I used to shake my head and say, "I'm afraid that is your own problem. Do you really want to go?" But I know better now.

Twelve years ago, in his little ivy-covered bungalow, old Billy Mathews answered that question with words that still ring in my ears. He was stroking the long silky hair of his magnificent collie.

"No, Doc", he solemnly said, "not on your life. I don't want to go. This is our home and it will always be home.

But you know that Hannah isn't well enough to keep house."

So Billy sold their bungalow, sent his dog off to the SPCA and• limped with his wife over to the big white house on Main Street.

A year later Hannah died of apoplexy and Billy Mathews was left alone to bear the sneers of his daughter-in-law.

Billy stood it as long as he could -for more than three years. Then one day he started out to find a new home.

When the state police picked him up not far from Allentown, he refused to tell them his name. He said he forgot who he was. They sent Billy to the state hospital and he was happy there until his son found out about him and brought him home.

After that things got worse than ever.

He couldn't draw his own money out of the bank any longer, and his heartless

daughter-in-law denied him even a chew I of tobacco. It was gunning season, and Pete's gun leaned against the wall in i the shed. You know the rest. Billy's daughter-in-law collected his ransom. * * So now I'm no longer so professional.

I sit down in the most solid chair in the room. I park my long legs on the nearest table. .And I give those old folks a sales talk that puts the skids under this ransom business in a hurry.

I try, when it is possible, to pair off an ailing old lady who owns her own home, with a healthier old lady who needs one. I try to find board for a cultivated old gentleman with a widow just a little younger. I'm the best promoter for old-folks' homes in town, and I try and try and try to keep all of my grayhaired patients from making Aunt Julie's and Uncle Billy's 'mistake.

To be happy, old folks should be indei pendent. Independence is possible if they I have their own homes, their own apart: ments, or even their 'own rooms in a first, class old-folks5 home. Liberty and the pursuit of happiness, which are guaranteed in the Declaration of Independence, are hard to achieve in someone else's home.

I have been reminded that television and radio have made life much happier for oldsters. But in my private practice I have never found that any of our newfangled contrivances have anything on a dog, a canary, or a big red-headed parrot. Old folks need love and affection, and to this present moment, no radio or television manufacturer has produced a set that can provide affection. Nine out of ten old people would prefer a cocker spaniel any day.

The argument that old folks shouldn't live alone is as foolish as the argument that they aren't capable of handling their own money. Sharing someone else's home means sharing the bathroom being exposed to someone else's colds, sore throat and bronchitis. Living in a home where there are young children means baby sitting, toys on the floor -- which can break a hip - and disturbance at all hours. Most important, sharing someone else's home means sharing the responsibility for bills, interest on the mortgage, and a thousand and one other financial drains. Many old folks have found —to their sorrow — that living in someone else's home costs more than maintaining their own!

Living alone means providing for oneself only. Living alone means hav)Continued from page 20)

Here is another tip. Don't drag yourself in the front door in the e yeing and announce that you had a tough day at the office. That is like asking a drowning man if he has been in swimming lately. Better not complain if dinner is a bit late, either. Just try to rock along, taking the bad with the worse. It won't last forever.

Pediatricians say that whenever you pick up the baby, you should be calm and relaxed. Any tension will transmit itself, upset him and perhaps cause colic, which is to be avoided like the plague. Mothers understand this, and it is the justification for baby talk. So if, by any chance, you happen to be the one selected to get up for the two o'clock feeding, try to get out of bed in a pleased mood. Hum a bit as you warm the bottle. Smile at the baby as you change him. Say something nice in a baby talk.

The baby will appreciate it, and later in the day maybe you can find someone at the office to bawl out.

Making formula in the home is something that has never been duplicated industrially, even by the du Ponts.

Did you ever stop to think what you, as a life insurance salesman, have meant to your community? If you had not entered the insurance business, would your policyholders now be in a better or worse condition?

If someone else had serviced and sold your policyholders who have passed on, would their families be happier and more contented? In other words, if the best life insurance man you know had your job, would the community be more pro*erotis with fewer hungry children and fewer widows separated from their homes? Would the other man have had more vision • and inspiration, and would he have done a: better job of selling and helping more men to provide for their families? , If you were the only man in your community who had the right to sell , life insurance, and it was your sole duty, and yours. alone, to see that widows and children were . pieavided for, would you work harder than you are now working?

It is the spirit of initiative or . self-help, team-work and fair-play that made America respected and admired by the peoples of the world.

In recent years, due to invention of many labor-saving devices, too great a value is being attached to physical Comfort and financial security and the timetested virtues are somewhat neglected.

The general routine of lodge business that comes before a meeting such as reading the minutes, paying dues etc. was disposed of and then a free discussions on subjects such as Home for the Supreme Lodge; State Organizer, Old Folk& Home, Investment of Mortuary fund, Election of Supreme Officers and their salaries and a few other things that highly concern cur SPJST. I think such discussions should be held in every local lodge so as to give our delegates a preview how the members stand on these questions so they can form their opinion how to vote not only to please themselves but also to please their fellow members., As the old sayings go: Two or more heads know more than one. The majority wins. Laws and rules should be obeyed.

Order is heaven's first law. Things done by halves are never done right. "What is worth doing at all is worth doing well."

"Procrastination is the thief of time."

"Well begun is half done." "A penny saved is a penny earned." "Heaven helps those who help themselves."

They apply to individuals as well as groups.

ntrytin Anxieties About Your Health Nature always tends toward health.

The truest help we can give is not to think of our bodies, well or ill, more than is necessary for their best health.

When ill, use every necessary remedy; do all that is best to bring renewed health. Having made sure you are doing all you can, forget. When pain or other suffering putS forgetting out of the ques-tion, use no unnecessary resistance, and forget as soon as the pain is past. Don't strengthen the impression by talking about it or telling it over to no purpose.

Here are some simple directions which May help nervous patients. If simply and steadily obeyed, they will shorten the siege by many days; nay, by many'weeks or months, in some eases.

All your worries and anxieties now are tired nerves. When a worry appears drop it. If it appears again, drop it again.

And so continue to drop it if it appears fifty or a hundred times a day or more.

If you feel like cryin, cry; but know it is the tired nerves that are crying, and don't wonder why you are so foolish; don't feel ashamed of yourself.

If you cannot sleep, don't care. Get all the rest you can without sleeping.

That will bring sleep when it is ready to come, or you are ready to have it. Think about everything in nature. Follow the growing of the trees and flowers. Re member all the beauties in nature you have ever seen. Read bright stories for children, a nd quiet novels. Sometimes it helps 10 work on arithmetic. Keep Maloof from emotions. Think of other people.

Never think of yourself.

Remember that you only retard your recovery by being overanxious to get strong. Drop every bit of unnecessary ° muscular tension.

Be as much like a child as possible.

Play with children as one of them, when you can. As you begin to recover, find something every day to do for others.

Best let it be in the way of housework, or gardening, or something to do• with your hands. Take care of yourself every day as a matter of course, as you would dress or undress; and be sure that health is coming. & ( Developer "I.must be getting stronger," observed the housewife.
