OVODEM K NOVEMU ROMANU Zada,m etenare Vestniku o prominuti, 2c pigi predmluvu k romanu, kterY zadne vychazeti a kterY bude dosti dlouhY. Te2 moje predmluva bude pomerne delgi.

Predne, proe /name trpeti romany v bratrskem organu?

Za druhe, prod redaktor vybira takovY druh romanu?

Oast° jsem slygel poznamku, ze romany jsou zbyteena vec. Kdy2 jsem byl na sjezdu zvolen za redaktora, ptal jsem se, zdali elenove preji uverejnovani romanu.

Chtel jsern znati smysleni delegatt. Snad etyri petiny delegattI projevilo s-vfij soubias, ze romany chteji. Nebyli ovsem v gichni. Nekteri namitaji, ze chce-h 'Oen dish zabaynon eetbu, povidky a romany, mel by si ka2dY koupiti knihu, predisti ji celou a ne s detbou kouskovat se cely rok.

Tim 2e by se podporilo vydavani deskych knih a neubiralo mista pro jinou u2itednou detbu v organu.

Jsou elenove, kteri sednou a objednaji si knihu, ba nekolik najednou. Ale takovYch Clenti neni mnoho. Kdyby 'Ceske knihy byly vystaveny v radove sini ku prodeji, to by je gte glo.

Oloveku vSak nestaei pozorovat yeeer poletujici svetelkujici svatojanske muSky. UvaZuje a premYg li, jak a prod viastne tento hinyz sVetelkuje.

Na prvni otezku se dosud nepodalilo cat presuou odpoved'. Existuje side rada theorii. ktere se snaZi tento zjev vysvetlit, ale be', uspechu. Plinius rnladsi nazval sVetiuSky "stellae volantes" lletajici ' hvezdy) a s tim se spokojil. Nic tim vS'a,k neobjasnil. Vysvetleni "lehajici hvezdy" vystadilo jen ereneu stredoveku. Teprve kdy2 v polovine sedronacteno• stoleti alchymista Hennig Brand objevil prvrir.. fosfor, ktcrV Ye tine' sviti, a nazval "zemnim ohnem", to se vSlchni tehdejS1 odbornici shodli v tom, ze tento "zernni ohefe" urnoZrune mnoha Zivoeichtiim ye 'tine sVitit". Ale tento nazor byl brzy Vyvreeen.

Pozdeji, kdy2 priSel do nrOdy problem premeny latek v Zivem organismu, vznikl nazor, ze svetelkovani nekt•rYch chit je vyvolavano prave touto premenou.

Pokusy se yak zjistilo, ze praSek z usugenYch,a rozeneletYch svetlitSek nebo cucujo rovneZ svetelkuje, a to po rnnoho mesicti. Padla testy i tato theorie.

Koncem minuleho stoleti se hodne niluvilo o zazraku elektriny. V teto souvislosti se objevily pokusy pripsat svetel kujici schopnost Zivoeichtt na vrub teto encrgie, ktcre.pry CC tVai v jejich sval-

THE DELEGATES of the last convention have been praising the two Houston lodges for the generous entertainment given to them in Houston. But did anybody tell you the secret? Do you know that it wouldn't have been so outstanding if we did not have our sisters working for it? The more I think what the sisters of the two Houston lodges accomplished, the more I am ready to say that our only hope to make the things humming in our lodges lies in our women members.

• • EVERYBODY WILL ADMIT that the work at every local lodge is more or less slipping, In some local lodges it is in a mess. Unfortunately, it hurts nobody in particular. The members, as a whole, tolerate it, hoping that some way or another it will be cleaned up. But it is disappointing how talks and discussions get us nowhere. Our hope lies in our lodge Sisters.

you . ask? Well, the ladies made it better than they promised. They raised $3,250.00, and the men were proud • to get a bit over $2,700.00. That's the reason for my statement that the hope for the things to pick up in our lodges lies in our Sisters.

•

•

IT IS MY SINCERE OPINION that if every lodge had equal number of women on various committees, the things would start humming. We just have to .many men 'on every committee. We are too practical. We, men, don't seem to have vision, or imagination, or the idealistic touch. Oh, yes, we buy the tickets for this and that, but we seldom go for the things that have an "uplift" quality to it.

• • WE MEN THOROUGHLY ENJOY forging ahead in business, providing for the comfort of the family, increasing our wealth, or 'otherwise inflating our ego.

As to the finer concepts of life, we nonchanlantly leave it for women to manage. We feel that they are better equipped to 'carry on childhood training, education, and character-building. We leave the children in their hands more and more.

INASMUCH AS WE LEAVE so much in the hand of cur women, why not share with them the fraternal work to a greater degree. We know that women by instinct or by nature are more kindly disposed, more tender and more sympathetic to the needs and suffering of others.

And what is the fraternal work except that of sharing the burden of others?

Women thrive on such endeavors and they take all kinds of humanitarian activities in their stride.

BEFORE WE GO FURTHER, let me remind you of the one group of Sisters with whose work I am familiar, Sisters of Pokrok Houston Lodge. When the first meeting of the convention committee was held, it was voiced that the ladies would be called upon to help us raise sufficient funds to entertain the delegates. The rough estimate was to raise about four thousand dollars for the three nights 'of entertainment furnished

by Pokrok Houston, and one little re• • freshment party before the banquet. All in all, it was estimated that one thouAND WHY COULDN'T WE USE our sand dollars a night would cover the lodge Sister for local organizers? We do expenses. have some, and they do get marvelous • results, but we don't have enough of AND DO YOU KNOW what the ladies them. Among the twenty leading solisaid? They told us that it had to be citors, whose pictures were published in about fifteen hundred a night, or six the Vestnik of the May 28, we have thousand in total. In addition, they only five lady-solicitors. We need more threw a challenge: if men can raise one- of them, more leaders, more high-grade half of the amount, the ladies will raise organizers. They can get us more wives the other half. And how did it turn out, and young girls than the men organ-

izers. We have seen the work of WACS, WAVES, SPARS, we should use the work of SISTERS. WHAT STEPS SHOULD our sisters take to get into the fraternal work? Here are a few suggestions: Don't believe that you are weak, inferior, or that you must take a back seat. All that is false. You are stronger than you realize, and your influence is more powerful than man's influence. You can do wonders as an organizer. You don't press your point.

You don't argue. You make suggestions which touch the feeling. You succeed where a man fails. * * IT IS OFTEN SAID that women do not co-operate with each other, that they are too individualistic, that they seek the limelight and attention for themselves. Arguments like these have been advanced, but do they really stack up with the facts? Just take the case of the ladies at P'ckrok Houston Lodge.

Didn't they co-operate with each other and with men, too? Did they look for glory for themselves? Were they too individualistic, begging for honor and distinction, and let the devil take the hindmost?

OR TAKE THE LADIES at Stefanik Lodge No. 142. I don't know so much about their work along the financial lines, but their influence is undisputed.

It was Sister Vaja who came up with an idea to have a children contest. It were the ladies like Sister Sturm, Sister Ward„ and Sister Chupik who organized the Junior Club at Stefanik Lodge. And here comes another example of their influence: financial support from the Junior Club toward the contest prizes. You see, the Junior Club of Stefanik Lodge is composed of members and non-members. The non-members are accepted with the idea to give them opportunity to get acquainted with the functioning of the Lodge and allow them time to make up their mind whether to join or not, a sort of grace period to become a member. Now these non-members cannot take part in the children contest to be held on September 28 at Needville. But the non-mem(Continued on page 23.)

CZECH COURSES IN HOUSTON Several inquiries came to the editor whether or not any Czech courses are to be taught in Houston this fall.

Since Dr. J. M. Skrivanek assumed his (Tales as chairman of the Slavonic Languages chair at the , A and M College, it has been thought by many of the students who studied the Czech courses that there would be no one to replace Dr. Skrivanek.

Fortunately, as your editor found out, the Czech courses will be offered in Houston this fall. Mr. Adolph E. Motal will teach both Czech and Russian at the South Texas College of Law and

He Married the former Valeria Pesna of Schulenburg and they have two children I am not quite sure if Mr. 11/total is a member of the SPJST, and at the time of writing I have no way of finding out, but he and his wife are frequent visitors at the Pokrok Houston Lodge No. 88 Registration for the Czech and Russian classes begins Tuesday, September 15. Call Mr. Motal by phone, if you are interested. .

One quarter of the graduates report, frankly, that they have not been as successful as they thought they would be. Another 25 percent say they are just as successful as they imagined they would be, and 19 percent say they are more succesful than they thought they would be.

That sets up the standard of chances for all modern college graduates. You have 44 chances out of 100 to get where you want, or better. Now that is a very heartening "expectation of success" figure. It is, in all probability, the most optimistic prospect that is possible in the world today; and undoubtedly a better set up of chance than American young men have had in all the past history of the United States, despite the glamourous stories of the opportunities in other decades.

We have here, perhaps, a rather significant measuring stick of democracy.

Any system which can deliver to half ci its young college men the goals they set for themselves upon graduation, is a system that goes a long way toward being phenomenally successful.

American young men are by no means conservative dreamers. They are in fact, often accused of aiming too high. If then, their batting average is 44 out of 100, and our economy makes such an average possible, we have soMething here! It is a very precious asset indeed, worth improving still further and worth protecting to the hilt.

Probably no more heartening picture of the chances of success for young Americans has ever been presented. It depicts an America which certainly leaves no room for a futilitarian, despairing generation of young men.

It was suggested that all members of the Supreme tic dge that can do so should attend Director Kubala's funeral, at Pilot Point, Wednesday morning, August 13, 1952.

Secretary Chupick read a letter from Br. Jos. R. Anton of Houston, Texas, in which letter, Brother Anton, stated that, he, Editor Valcik, and Brother John Kahanek Jr., o1 Houston, Texas, were appointed, by the president of the convention, as members of Publicity Committee, that they acted in such capacity during the convention; that they performed such duties for five days and that since the other committees of the convention were paid $15.000 a day for their services, that they as members of said Publicity Committee likewise feel that they should be paid on the same basis, and should be paid $75.000, each, for the services which they performed as members of the Publicity Committee during the convention.

By mutual agreement, it was agreed that Bros. Anton, Valcik and Kahanek should be paid the sum of $75.000 each, for their services as member of Publicity Committee during the XVI convention.

Director Navratil presented a request from Brother Matush that the Supreme bodge should give the Building Committee some directives or idea as to the kind, size, and character of a building that the Supreme Lodge desires and thinks we should have for its new office building and where it should be located, etc.

Upon motion by Director Skrabanek, seconded by Vice-President Svadlenak and unanimously carried, it was agreed that the Building Committee be advised that the question of selection of a building site for the proposed SPJST building was discussed and that the Supreme Lodge came to the conclUsiOn that the Building Committee should proceed immediately in inspecting various sites offered to it and in securing 'options on some of them, located in the city as well as on the outskirts of the city, and then report to the Supreme Lodge, and that the Supreme Lodge would then pass on the sites submitted and make its recommendations relative to the proposed building.

TOTS TO LEARN TRAFFIC RULES The driver of the blue convertible did not see the traffic light. Her eyes intent upon the road, she rolled right on past the red signal, just missing several pedestrians. By the time she stopped, the policeman was already coming across the street toward her, a book of I ickets in his hand.

The blue convertible was a toy model and the street intersection a painted one marked out in yellow on the playground just behind Roosevelt Public School in New Rochelle, New York.

The driver was seven years old—the policeman even younger—and none of the pedestrians was more than eight cr nine years old.

These children and their classmates were playing a game. But it was a game with a purpose and they were playing it with all seriousness.

It was a busy scene: When the lights changed, pedestrians moved out -onto the crosswalks as drivers and in model cars waited for the signal to go forward.

-This was a novel experiment in junior traffic training; its object, to find out ii it was practical to start teaching youngsters of the early grades the attitudes and skills necessary to make them good drivers and good pedestrians.

The driver of the blue car got her ticket and, next morning in the . classroom, appeared in "traffic court."

Miss Nixon, the teacher, was presiding magistrate. -She picked up from her desk the first of several tickets.

"Ruth and Billy, will you please come forWard?"

With the children standing before her, she Continued, "Billy, please tell me why you gave Ruth this ticket." And Billy did, while the class listened attentively.

"Now, Ruth," said Miss Nixon, "Did you pass a light?"

"Yes, I did—hut Billy waited until I was right there before he turned the signal red. He's done it before too!"

Sheepisly, Billy admitted that maybe he waited tee long before turning the signal. Miss Nixon turned to the class.

"You have heard both sides of the case. How many of you think Ruth is guilty?" Only two hands rose. "How many think she is not guilty?"

A forest of hands shot up.

Ruth smiled and started for her seat but Miss Nixon called her back.

"Let's not forget," she said, "that very often.real traffic signals do change just as we are driving up to them or just as we step off the curb. So we ought to watch them very carefully all the time."

The class agreed.

The next case involved. Jack Reynolds.

He had gotten a ticket for straddling the white line while waiting to make a left turn. This time the verdict was unanimous. The entire class found Jack guilty because, as Officer Raymond put it, "If you cross the white line you aren't playing fair 'cause the rules say you can't cross the white line ever."

The idea for the experiment came to Ralph Graeter, highway safety consultant. He realized that young children could not be expected to drive automobiles. But it occurred to him that perhaps they could begin to acquire the attitudes—courtesy, alertness, respect for 'others, patience—which are far more important to highway safety, it is now generally agreed, than skill in handling cars.

He spent three months developing his plan. Then he took it to Dr. Orlo- K. Jenney, principal of the Roosevelt Public School in New Rochelle, Dr. Jenney agreed enthusiastically to let the school participate in the experiment, and volunteered to enlist the help of others.

When the preparations had been completed, the first class of youngsters was was led out to the row of waiting vehicles. From his motorcycle Police Officer John Shonberg told the awe-struck group how very important it was for them to learn to walk and drive carefully.

The class was divided into drivers and pedestrians. The game was to walk or drive quickly and safely around the two painted blocks in the schcol yard, obeyed ing all signs and all policemen along the way.

Within days, the effects of the training program were noticeable on the driving course. Within weeks, they began to crop up in the classrooms and long before the program ended, three months later, they were being felt by parents at home. Parents discovered that they could no longer ignore stop signs, or cross white lines, or walk against the light, without drawing criticism from their children.

One mother drove to the school to tell Dr. Jenney ,cf receiving a ticket for speeding and of her chagrin when her small daughter remarked complacently: "I knew that would happen. You always get a ticket when you speed!"

Old Coin—Big Money There is a new value in old coins, if you are a numismatist. You pronounce it new-MIZ-ma-tist, meaning a rarecoin specialist.

The word numismatics (newmiz-MATiks) means the science of coins and medals. Some .cf the rare-coin specialists sell you catalo'ues of old coins —and make money even if you' don't have old pennies.

A numismatist in his right mind never gives a penny for your thoughts without first putting the penny under fluorescent light.

Being a rare-coin specialist, he knows the odds are 650 to 1 that pocket change. will turn .up Indian-head pennies for the years 1909 or 1908 valued at $10 to $15 each. For these Indian heads must have the letter "S" to show they were minted in San Francisco.

On the other hand, the 1877 Indian head without any marking is worth $25, and one recently turned up in a chewing-gum machine.

Where are those 1885, 1912 and 1866 nickels? They're worth rep to $15 apiece.

"The very thought of these ancient beauties flowing through the fingers of coin-blind Americans is upsetting," said Emil Schmidt, of Little Rock, Ark., at a recent public coin auction held in New York City. He was discussing the 1894 dime with several other coin experts. This dime is worth $3000, and no questions asked.

Again, it must have "S" for San Francisco because only a small number were minted in 1894 in that city. Some 1,300,000 others were minted the same year in the Philadelphia mint and if you shake one loose from pour pocket it's worth about $1.

Where to hunt for valuable coins?

Sidney Fless of Floral Park, L. I., put it thus: "You can go to the average bank and pick up coin values if you are patient and sharp-eyed. Most bank tellers do not watch for them. They are too busy.

Best thing is to obtain nickels, dimes, pennies, quarters in coin holders from a bank handling the receipts of longdistance railroads and airlines. For some reason, such banks get change turning up an occasional good piece."

Lodge or the state organizer to discuss the 'phases of insurance sales. The commiSsions for local organizers is 'graduated. (It was mailed to each organizer

by President Marek.)

The commision rates are to be based on each years production..

The committee took , $50,000.00 as a basic figure of the first years premiums.

The local organizers commissions is estimated to be an average of 60% of the 1st years premiums which will make a total of $30,000.00 that the local organizers will receive. The 15% commission' of the $50,000.00 first years premiums, is $7,500.00, being the amount that the state organizer will receive. The balance. $12,500.00 ' which would be left is for further expense's in the organization work.

Should the' first years premiums' increase $60,000.00 the average • 60% commission of the local organizers would be $36,000.00. The 15% Commission of the state, organizer would, be $9;000.00 and the balance of $15,000.00 would be left •for other expenses in the 'organization work.

We submit the preceding for your consideration."

After considerable discussion of the above report • of the Organizational Cominittee by the various members of the Supreme Ledge, said report was finally adopted, aecePted and approved by the entire Supreme Lodge, except (1) The recommendation of the Organizational Committee that the local solicitors "be required" to take : the basic course of the Fraternal Sales Training Program was changed to. the extent that it is "recommended" that local solicitors take such course' (2) That under the scale of Commissions to the local 'organizers a statement should be added that such scale of commissions goes into effect on January 1, 1953, and shall be computed on calendar year basis. (3) That the commissions to the local organizers are to be based on each calendar years production and are conditional subject to the approval and recommendation of our Actuary. .Upon motion by Attorney Kacir, seconded by Director Eineigl, and unanimously carried, it was agreed that Pres.

Marek should be'relieved of all his duties at the Supreme Lodge office and that until January 1, 1953, he should devote full time to the organizational work in the field and to the selection and training of the local'organizers.

Consequently, fifteen Cf the non-members started a collection among themselves to raise five dollars to chip in for the contest prizes for those who will take part in the contest. It' simply shows that it takes the unSelfish interest and subtle, impersonal and inspirational influence of woman's guiding hand.

They can turn their interest into new channels, into uplifting and elevating activities that will release the inner' spiritual strivings common to all of us in some degree, into spiritual values that we so sorely need.

They can use their feminine influence with us, men of all types and all degrees of authority and conceit. They can spread the doctrine of human sympathy Understanding, and help on a higher plane than the level cn which we, men, have so far been working. )•

COST OB BEING RIGHT

By EARL L. DOUGLASS One of my readers recently wrote me and quoted this expression: "The turtle never gets any place unless he sticks his neck out."

This is just another way of saying that life as a whole is a calculated risk. If we are never going to take any risks, we are never going to serve our generation with much gallantry. In every office there are people ready to jeer and criticize anyone whd takes a firm stand on an unpopular issue. Many a business organization in the country is ready to subject dissenters to all sorts of financial reprisals if they talk cut of turn. In labor circles one is liable to be liquidated if he jumps to his feet and berates the brass hats. Even in the church and in educational institutions, those who will not conform themselves to established patterns of thought often find that they are first subjected to cold disdain and then perhaps to demotion or dismissal.

It is no easy task to live a courageous life, standing every day for 1,vhat, one believes to be right. We have to stick our necks out on many occasions in our defense of the right; and we may be sure that there will be someone standing near with a big stick waiting to slap us clown.

But sometimes the slapper gets slapped.

At our -last meeting Homer Eugene Oliver was admitted into our lodge. Sister Anna Bartek transfered into our lodge from lodge No. 86 I wish to congratulate all of our <officers who have been re-elected at the convention also our new editor and attorney.. I think that our editor is really a good one. I am learning to read Czech

Wednesday, September 10, 1952 from his editorials. They are so interesting that I don't want to miss a one. I myself don't think it would be wise to repeat in English what the editor • writes in Czech. Don't you think there would be too much repetition? If you do this maybe no one will read the Czech section • except the old people who cannot read English. I think that maybe you could repeat the announcements, but not everything you write.

Contaturation's to. Rueben Talasek u p -onhisuceflctionasurRepres.entative for Place 2. I think that Stanley Kacir also deserves a few words of praise. I think that if all the voters had voted he would have been elected.

I congratulate both of you. We should all be proud of our two politicians.

Brother Frank Klinkovsky was operated on last Tuesday morning. I hope he's getting along well.

Cotton pickers are scarce again this year. I hope our bunch will come in so that we wouldn't have to do it.

Brothers Ed Pechal and Mr. Frank Masopust are digging a well at our hall.

We really needed one or everytime we had a picnic we had to haul water. I don't know whether they're through or not.

Last Wednesday night the Bell County Farm Bureau had its annual barbecue at Star Hall. About 1200 people were present including Murray Cox from WFFA. He showed films of his Canadian tour.

We didn't get to go our colored people of all the days decided on that day that they want to pick late. So we had to stay with them to weigh and bring in the truck. I'm sure everybody had a good time.

Well, until next time this is all.

Fraternally Yours, Mrs. Clara He 1. ) • .1111 • ( SAN ANTONIO LODGE NO. 133 Dear Editor, Sisters and Brothers: In your editorial of August 13 Bro. Valcik, you stated that if you had a letter yesterday from lodge sec'y Kleprlik in Czech, you would bet $5.00 that the following day you would receive a letter from lodge chairman, Bundil, in English, or Sister Amburn or some one else from San Antonio.

The chairman has not come up to expectation of late partly due to virus bronchitis and summer-itis which led to nofeel-like-itis after other things re7 quiring his attention were attended to.

But for fear you may lose that five bucks I decided I'd better buckle down and do something about it. So here goes!

VESTNiK— WEST, TEXAB Our meeting held August 10 was fairly attended despite the high temperature, which kept some away. We celebrated 4 birth of members present with a luncheon after the meeting and a gettogether for a song fest, accompanied by Bro. Kleprlik on the piano. As 'usual I sang awful, but it could have been terrible had something other than good coffee and cakes been served. The good coffee came from an urn newly acquired from the .uxiliary club which disbanded for reason of not enough interest. It is hoped that at some future date this club will be revived, The month of September is a month of birthdays for many members so, if your birthday and you didn't receive a special invitation, you must come anyway. This is for the in terest of all members so let's all have fun instead of finding fault with one another.

During the past month we had on our sick list sisters Zofie Maly; Irma Woellert, her daughter, and Jos. , J:Marek. At last report they were doing nicely. Hope to. see them at the September 14, meeting Since I wrote last the lodge has had quiet a,. few activities which should interest those members failing to attend regular meetings. After every meeting we celebrate members birthdays which fall during that particular month. Then there was the case of the Pearl Brewery where we had our first picnic of the year in the beautiful new air conditioned "Corral Room," the refreshments being with the compliments of the brewery. The flavor in the bottle was the cause for more — playing by the S. A. Czech Orchestra, whidh seemed to be enjoyed by the 200 or more dancers.

Strange that just before that the lodge sponsored a dance and could not draw a crowd big enough to pay expenses. July was the month of our big play party which was a success. And August 15, another basket picnic held at the Lone Star Brewery brought out about 300 people, even larger count than at the Pearl picnic. Credit goes to our working entertainment committee. I was happy to see among our midst bro..Joe Kalousek from Houston.. On his way back from Corpus Christi he timed it so he and missus could be with us. With him was Mr. Cerny. I regret not being able to be a better host to our visitors. It is the same story of having too many irons in the fire. I would recommend to any chairman to stick with the , cne job only —being chairman, At the Lone Star picnic, however, I helped to entertain cur guests by tootin my horn and managing to shoo the girls away from the musicians so they could continue to perform

Strana 25 good Czech music to the enjoyment of hundreds present.

The picnic reminded me of the one given the delegates during the last con= vention by Lodge Pokrok Houston at the Grand Prize Brewery — after the very fine lunch served by the energetic committee — singing was the center of attention where everybody tried to get in the act. The difference was that our band tooted while the guests acted by dancing. It has not been reported front Houston whether or not the neighbors moved.

Also present at the Lone Star was the family of Pavliska of Floresville. We sed the presence of bros. Tom Novak, Bolf and Miculka.

The S. A. Czech Orchestra has struggled to exist, not on account of -non interest of the Czech population here, but by the members themselves. One by one they had been replaced by other musicians having more interest in playing'.

Out of the original nine members only two remain who can be depended , oii.

The rest of seven members were replaced by five, now having seven dependable membersr — we hope. The others 'are honorary members who may join in at their leisure. It is regretable that there is such a shortage of musicians here of Czech origin.

Out-of-town I went 'and hied to the quiet home of my brother'-Anlaw Petr Barta, at Oak Forest At) formed me that it was simply toopreW' a day t 'o stay in while they were haVing a big blowout in Legion Park, Sitirfer, where Joe Patek's band would 'lie of tap.

who passed way one year ago, Septemb 8, 1951 There is a wooden casket I so well remember that because it hold's my beloved one and my memories ever ember.

He was always the dearest husband; in my dreams I see him yet, that is why I'm grieving now and my heart can't forget.

All my days are dark and gloomy now that you are forever gone; all my nights are blue and lonely, everything is going- wrong.

I smile, but tears fill my eyes when I think of love we once knew; now I'm left with no hope for tomorrow; I'm heartbroken, lonesome, and blue.

What can I do since you left me so hearthbroken, lonesome and blue?

How can I hide all my sorrow with nothing but memories of you?

Today my heart is weeping — new, that you're gone away to stay.

I miss your smile so tender, -that is why I'm sad today.

When 1 die and leave this world, place me beside the one I love, then our souls will rest so peaceful in Our heavenly home above.
