LETO (VOLUME) XXII.
Pred dvanajsto (XII.) konvencijo, ki se je vršila meseca avgusta leta 1914 v Milwaukee, Wisconsin, se je med raz-motrivanjem veliko* pisalo in priporočalo ustanovitev otroškega oddelka pri naši Jednoti.
2elja mnogih je bila, da bi se osnoval poseben oddelek, v katerega naj bi se sprejemalo otroke. In ker bi se v ta oddelek sprejemalo samo otroke, se je torej priporočalo ustanovitev otroškega oddelka, ka-ero ime se je pozneje nadomestilo z imenom "MLADINSKI ODDELEK."
Ideja za ustanovitev otroškega oddelka je bila pametna in vse hvale vredna.
V oddelku, v katerega bi se sprejemalo otroke,' sem videl največji korak k napredku naše Jednote. Videl sem v takem oddelku velike koristi za Jed-noto, kakor tudi za starše, ki bi svoje otroke v ta oddelek vpisali.
Ideja je bila izborna, toda vprašanje je bilo, se li sme tak oddelek v smislu državnega zakona ustanoviti? Je li bratskim podpornim organizacijam v smislu zakona dovoljeno sprejemati in zavarovati otroke, ki so manj kakor 16 let stari? To so bila vprašanja, ki jih je bilo treba rešiti prej, ko se je zamoglo z delom nadaljevati.
Iz tega razloga sem dne 20. julija 1914 pisal na zavaroval. department v Springfield, 111. V pismu sem omenil, da se namerava predložiti pred delegacijo dvanajstega glavnega zborovanja potrebno resolucijo za ustanovitev otroškega oddelka, v kateri oddelek bi se sprejemalo člane od 1. do 16. leta.
Na moje pismo sem prejel odgovor sledeče vsebine: Insurance Department State of Illinois, Springfield.
Mr. Joseph Zalar,
Secretary Grand Carniolian Slovenian Catholic Union, 1004 North Chicago St., Joliet, 111. Dear Sir:
I have your favor of the 20th instant, with reference to contemplated amendment to the articles of association of your society—such amendment being to establish a children's department, so that children under the age of sixteen years may be taken into the society.
Permit me to say this amendment should not be adopted by your society. In the event it was adopted, it would not have the approval of this department. This department has held and now holds that under the fraternal law of tis state there can be no fraternity with children. TKf
minimum age for entering a 'society is, under the law, sixteen years.
Yesterday I wrote you with reference to the valuation of the business of your society and no doubt you have received my communication by this time.
Yours truly,
RUFUS M. POTTS, Insurance Superintendent
Iz vsebine pisma državnega zavarovalninskega načelnika je razvidno, da je odsvetoval, oziroma naravnost prepovedal sprejem resolucije za ustanovitev otroškega oddelka, zatr-jajoč, da če bi se taka resolucija pri konvenciji sprejela, ne bo odobrena od strani zavarovalninskega departitenta; da bratskim podpornim organizacijam ni dovoljeno poslovati z otroškimi oddelki in da se na podlagi državnega zakona ne sme sprejemati oseb, ki so m&nj kakor 16 let stare.
Vsled tega sem v svojem poročilu' ki je HTlo predloženo delegaciji dvanajste konvencije, podal sledeče pojasnilo
"Otroški oddelek, o katerem se je veliko pisalo v Glasilu Jednote, se ne more priklopiti Jednoti. Mnogi člani, ki so priporočali otroški oddelek potom dopisov v uradnem glasilu, so me napotili, da sem se obrnil za pojasnilo na državnega zav. supt. v Springfield, 111., ter ga naprosil, naj mi naznani, smemo li sprejeti o-troke v Jednoto ali ne. Prejel sem odgovor, ko se mi odločno naznanja, da kaj takega se na podlagi državne postave podpornih organizacij ne more napraviti in v slučaju, da bi delegat je pri konvenciji tak oddelek sprejeli, ne bo odobren od strani zavarovalninskega departmenta. Postava določuje, da se zamore sprejeti v podporne organizacije osebe le od 16. leta naprej. Torej, da se ne bo čas tratil nepotrebnim potom, sem to omenil, kajti postava je prva, ki jo moramo vpoštevati." (Glej zapisnik XII. glavnega zborovanja, stran 58).
Konvencija je to naznanilo vpoštevala in opustila razmo-trivanje o ustanovitvi otroškega oddelka. S tem, da je bila razprava vsled pisma državnega zavarovalninskega načelnika opuščena, pa ideja u-stanovitve otroškega oddelka še ni bila pokopana. Delalo se je naprej in v številki 39 Jednotinega Glasila z dne 6. oktobra 1915, je bilo priobče-no sledeče uradno naznanilo:
IZ URADA GL. TAJNIKA
K. S. K. JEDNOTE Pred zadnjo konvencijo se je veliko pisalo in priporočalo ustanovitev otroškega oddelka pri naši Jednoti. Ideja ustanovitve omenjenega oddelka me je napotila, da sem se pismenim potom obrnil na državni zavarovalninski odsek države Illinois ter povprašal, če bi bilo dovoljeno tak oddelek u-stanoviti ter priklopiti k na-
ši organizaciji. Dne 22. j ja 1914 sem prejel odgovor Insurance Supt., ki mi je na znanil, da nam svetuje, da naj se otroški oddelek ne ustanovi, ker ne bo priznan od državnega zavarovaln. departmenta Naznanjeno mi je tudi bilo, da na podlagi državnega zakona podpornih organizacij je dovoljeno sprejemati osebe le nad 16 let stare. To je bilo tudi vzrok, da sem v svojem poročilu, katero sem predložil zborovalcem zadnje konvencije, omenil in svetoval, da naj se debatiranje o otroškem oddelku pri zasedanju opusti, ter s tem prihrani mnogo časa, ker sem iz pisma zavaroval, supt. razvidel, da tudi če bi otroški oddelek sprejeli, ne bi bil potrjen od države.
Cela zadeva je torej ostala mrtva in se ni o njej mnogo razpravljalo. Ker sem pa u-videl iz priporočil različnih društev in sodeč po svojem lastnem prepričanju, da bi- bil otroški oddelek j ako velike koristi za bodočnost Jednote, kakor tudi v slučaju nesreče v tolaži j ivo podporo onim, ki bi imeli svojo deco zavarovano, obrnil sem se ponovno letošnje leto na državnega zavarovalninskega načelnika ter ga prosil za natančno pojasnilo o ustanovitvi imenovanega oddelka. Ponovno mi je bilo naznanjeno, da na podlagi postave se ne more priklopiti k Jednoti otrok, ker se določuje, da mora biti oseba stara najmanj 16 let itd. Poleg tega mi je pa Insurance Supt. sporočil, da če je volja staršev imeti svoje otroke zavarovane in če hočejo plačevati potrebne prispevke in asesmente za pokritje smrtnin, da jim to ne prepoveduje in sme organizacija pobirati take prispevke

PROSLAVA 20-LETNICE MLADINSKEGA ODDELKA KSKJ
Prvo proslavo 20-letnice našega mladinskega oddelka je priredilo društvo sv. Frančiška Sal. št. 29, Joliet, 111. dne 3. maja t. 1. Gornja slika nam kaže lepo skupino mladih članov in članic tega društva. V prvi vrsti v sredini na levi strani sedi predsednik društva, sobrat Martin Težak, ki je v odboru
društva že 37. leto; bil je že zapisnikar, tajnik, zastopnik in zadnjih 23 let vodi društvo kot predsednik. Poleg njega je Rev. George Kuzma, v sredini sedi Rev. John Plevnik, zraven njega je Rev. M. J. Hitti in tik njega sedi sobrat Josip Zalar, gl. tajnik KSKJ.
da se piše stvarno in resno ter opusti vse morebitne napade na eno ali drugo stran.
Z bratskim pozdravom sem Vam udani sobrat,
Joseph Zalar, gl. tajnik.
Ko je gornje "uradno naznanilo" zagledalo javnost, se je ideja za ustanovitev otroškega oddelka ponovno oživela. Od tedna do tedna se je pisalo v Glasilu in od raznih strani priporočalo ustanovitev tega oddelka. Pri sejah krajevnih društvih je članstvo o tem razpravljalo in do seje gl. odbora, ki se je vršila januarja 1916 se je za ustanovitev otroškega oddelka izreklo 30 krajevnih društev.
Na podlagi tega sem pri seji glavnega odbora dne 14. januarja 1916 o tem poročal in priporočil, da se otroški oddelek ustanovi. V zapisniku sej gl. odbora, priobčenem v Glasilu št. 3, z dne 26. januarja 1916, je čitati moje tozadevno poročilo in priporočilo, ki se glasi:
"Glavni tajnik poroča, da je v 39. št. Jednotinega Glasila v uradnem članku priporočal ustanovitev otroškega oddelka. Omenja, da na podlagi omenjenega priporočil, članka, se je do sedaj izreklo 30 krajevnih društev za ustanovitev otroškega oddelka. Niti eno društvo do sedaj še ni bilo proti temu. Radi tega gl. tajnik priporoča, da se čimprej ko mogoče otroški oddelek u-stanovi in da se da priliko članom in članicam KSKJ svoje otroke zavarovati za primerno zavarovalnino.
Vsi zbrani uradniki se docela strinjajo s tajnikovim poročilom in prično o tem podrobneje razpravljati.
Naposled se določi, da naj bi se sprejemalo otroke od 1. leta do 16. let.
Vstopnina ali vpisnina naj znaša 50 centov.
Mesečni asesment naj bi bil 15c za osebo in zavarovalnina $100.00.
Z otroškim oddelkom i^aj se prične poslovati takoj, ko se prijavi 300 otrok - kandidatov.
Pooblasti se predsednika in gl. tajnika Jednote, da pripravita potrebne tiskovine in pravila, kakor tudi vse drugo za ustanovitev in upeljavo otroškega oddelka.
Ta novi korak k napredku in procvitu Jednote, se z radostjo pozdravi od strani vseh uradnikov Jednote."
V Glasilu št .7, z dne 23. februarja 1916 je bil priobčen uredniški članek izpod peresa sobrata Ivana Zupana, urednika Glasila, ki se glasi: AGITIRAJTE ZA USTANOVITEV OTROŠKEGA ODDELKA
Kmalu bo minulo že dva meseca, odkar je glavni odbor K. S. K. J. sprejel na svoji polletni seji važno točko glede uvedbe otroškega oddelka pri tej Jednoti. O tej točki se je čitalo še pred navedeno sejo in tudi kasneje več člankov in (Dalje na 2. strani).

PRVA ČLANICA MLADINSKEGA ODDELKA
Gornja slika nam predstavlja prvo članico našega mladinskega oddelka, ki je bila vknjižena pod cert. št. X. To je Mrs. Marion Zalar-Curry, starejša hčerka našega glavnega tajnika.

da bo nedvomno mladeničem tudi prepovedala isseliti se v inozemstvo, kakor je to zadnji čas ie Anglija ukrenila. Potne liste izdaja mladim izseljencem na Angleškem samo ministerstvo in ja pri tam zelo strogo.
Smelo bi lahko trdili, da bi se moralo smatrati tekoče leto najbolj pomembnim v zgodovini naše K8KJ. ako se točka uvedbe otroškega oddelka uresniči. S tem bi se zaseja-lo na našem Jednotinem polju zdravo seme, ki bi obrodilo tekom let obilne sadove. Naše jednotino drevo bi se s tem zacepilo z novimi mladikami, da bi postale te mladike čez leta mogočne sadonosne veje. Dragi nam sobratje in sestre! Te lepe in ugodne prilike ne smemo zamuditi! Zbudimo se z aimskega spanja, — pomlad se nam bliša, — treba bo o-rati in sejati na našem organizacijskem polju, da bomo i-meli na jesen kaj žeti! Pogoje in priliko za ustanovitev tega oddelka imamo sedaj u-godne in lepe, — torej vsi na noge, da se prične že letos s 1. julijem s poslovanjem novega oddelka!
Tukaj bomo navedli samo majhno primero ali zgled, kako lepo bi lahko naša Jednota napredovala z zavarovanjem otrok svojih članov. Recimo, da je izmed skupnega članstva 12,300 udov samo ena šestina ali 2000 družin. Povprečno število otrok pri eni družini vzemimo 3, torej, bi znašalo lahko skupno število otrok, zavarovanih v tem skla-
od 6. do 16. leta $66 — od 15. do 20. leta *4 — po 20. rojstnem letu $112. Pripomniti je treba, da se mora pri tej druibi plačevati 10c na teden, aH $8-30 na leto. Vaetnimo •lučaj, da umrje zavarovanec osnačen na tem certifikatu ko deaeie 16. leto. Družba llpla-ča lastniki^ certifikata aa pogreb, ali posmrtnino $SS — oče je pa vplačal od 4. leta do dneva smrti (torej 11 let) fte $57.20, torej za $1.20 več, kakor bo pa dobil. Pri naši Jed-noti bi plačeval član za vsakega otroka brez razlike na starost po 15c na mesec, ali $1.80 letno; torej v 11 letih $29.80, prihranil bi si lahko samo pri vplačanem asesmen-tu $27.40 in bi dobil za pogrebne stroške otroka že po preteku prvih 3 mesecev, ali kasneje $100. — Ali niso to bolj ugodni pogoji?,
Ni čuda torej, da imajo slič-ne ameriške zavarovalne družbe toliko milijonov premoženja? Take plače? In da plačujejo svojim ravnateljem po $100,000 letno. Vse to gre iz ljudskih žepov.
Upamo da bo torej vsak hišni gospodar ali slovenski oče, spadajoč k naši Jednoti raje podpiral svojo lastno podporno organizacijo, nego pa tujce, prvič že radi gesla: "Svoji k svojim," drugič, ker bo imel tu boljše ugodnosti in tretjič, ker bo s tem delal za procvit in napredek naše K. S. K. J. in njeno bodočnost.

dopisov, v katerih se je bodrilo članstvo za splošno agitacijo tega novega oddelka.
Do danes se je ugodno izjavilo za ustanovitev tega oddelka že 31 krajevnih društev, ta društva so sledeča: štev. 63, 23, 74, 123, 88, 2, 5, 21, 1, 103, 29, 153, 50, 136, 79, 59, 43, 75, 78, 49, 60, 120, -38, 47, 154, 115, 83, 126, 53, 95 in 132. Prijavilo se pa še ni 100 društev. Ako upoštevamo število društev, ki se zanimajo za u-vedbo otroškega oddelka vidimo, da je za to točko izmed celokupnega števila več kot četrtina društev, ki zavzemajo 3884 članov in članic po stanju z dne 31. decembra 1915.
Čudno se nam zdi, da je še toliko krajevnih društev, ki še do danes niso izražila svojega mnenja, če se strinjajo s tem predlogom ali ne? Lepo bi bilo, da bi imel glavni urad, ali pa uredništvo našega Glasila izjave vseh krajevnih društev, da bi se zamoglo to točko energično pričeti in rešiti.
Kakor ste cenjeni člani(ce) čitali(e) sklep glavnega odbora na zadnji polletni seji, vršeči se meseca januarja v Jo-lietu, 111., se ima pričeti s poslovanjem novega otroškega oddelka takoj ko se prijavi za to 300 (tristo) prosilcev, ali otrok. Starost je določena od 1. do 16. leta. Mesečni a-sesment za otroke brez razlike na starost bi naj znašal 15c, pristopnina 50c, posmrt-nina, ali prispevek za pogrebne stroške je pa določen na $100 (sto dolarjev). Pri vpisovanju otrok v ta sklad bi ne bilo potreba nikake zdravniške preiskave in naj bi dali le starši izjavo, da so otroc zdravi. Posmrtnine bi bil deležen otrok po preteku 3 mesecev, odkar je pri Jednoti v tem oddelku zavarovan. Ko dopolne otrok 16. leto, bi sc ga sprejelo v Jednoto kot rednega člana ali članico brez kake pristopnine. Jednota bi i-mela za otroški oddelek posebne knjige in posebne račune tako, da bi ne bil popolnoma nič v zvezi ali v stiku z Jednoto. To nam razne države dovoljujejo; tako poslu-! jejo že več let tudi druge na-j še slovenske podporne organizacije. Kakor smo informirani, ta oddelek pri raznih drugih jednotah najbolj napreduje. .
O velevažnem pomenu otroškega oddelka tudi pri naši j Jednoti nam je nedavno že naš glavni tajnik pojasnil. Da bo j imela naša Jednota trdno ini močno oporo za prihodnost, i nam je potreba skrbeti za na-! raičaj v članstvu.

majo pa za to druge toliko več po 6, 8, ali še več.
Kolikor nam znano, imajo dosedaj naši člani svoje o-troke zavarovane pri tujih zavarovalnih družbah, kjer morajo plačevati visoke tedenske prispevke da dobijo po preteku nekaj časa nekaj podpore za pogreb svojega malčka.

Ta družba plačuje sledečo posmrtnino: po preteku 3 mesecev po izdan ju certifikata $20 — med 3 in 6 meseci, odkar je bil certifikat izdan $26 4— med 6 in 9 meseci $28 — od 9 mesecev do 1 leta, odkar je certifikat v veljavi $28 — od 1. do 6. leta ,od kar se plačuje posmrtnino $28 —

Do tukaj je šlo vse še precej gladko brez posebnega na sprotovanja. Prijatelji otroškega oddelka so sklep glavnega odbora z veseljem pozdravili. Pri društvenih se j ah se je o ustanovitvi otroškega oddelka pridno razpravljalo in priporočalo, da se s poslovanjem kakor hitro mogoče prične.
Ker ima pa vsaka dobra stvar poleg prijateljev tudi sovražnike, zato tudi tukaj tak'h nasprotnikov ni manjkala. Dokler se je o ustanovitvi otroškega oddelka v Glasilu

samo razpravljalo in debatiralo, so nasprotniki molčali, misleč, da bo ostalo le pri ideji in da bo vse skupaj prej ali slej zaspalo. Ko so pa nasprotniki spoznali, da ne bo ostalo samo pri ideji, temveč, da se bo ideja uresničila, so se oglasili in pričeli ustanovitvi tega oddelka oporekati. Nekateri krivi preroki so zatrjevali, da je otroški oddelek za Jednoto nepotreben. Na drugi strani se je zopet povdar-jalo, da je priporočilo ustanovitve otroškega oddelka samo "Joe Zalar-jeva iznajdba" in da se gre pri tem samo za večjo tajniško plačo.
Osebe, ki so ustanovitvi o-troškega oddelka oporekale, so bile v manjšini. Njih trditve %o bile napačne in brez pod-iafre, sato se na iste ni oziralo. Započeto delo se je nadaljevalo in v Glasilu štev. 12, z dne 29. marca 1916 je bilo priobčeno naslednje naznanilo in priporočilo:
"Radi ustanovitve otroškega oddelka pri naši Jednoti se je že precej pisalo in razmotriva-!o. Od vseh strani prihajajo priporočila o. takojšnji ustar novitvi tega potrebnega oddelka. Glavni uradniki Jednotc zbrani pri seji meseca januarja t. 1. so celo zadevo premišljeno razmotrivali in določili, da naj se z otroškim oddelkom kakor hitro mogoče prične. Radi tega si štejem v dolžnost, da članom in članicam, ki se zanimajo za otroški oddelek, tukaj navedem nekaj navodil , in podatkov o otroškem oddelku:

Ker se pri sprejemanju otrok ne bo zahtevalo zdravniške preiskave, vslcd tega je dolžnost društvenega odbora, da se pri sprejemanju ali vpisovanju otrok ravna natančno po navodilih označenih na kartici. Na kan tiči pod izjavo starišev se zahteva podpis ečeta in ^matere. Podpise omenjenih oseb, kakor tudi zdravstveno stanje kolikor se more takd smatrati « stanja otroka, potrjuje društveni odbor. Na nasprotni strani in sicer oddelek na levi strani izpopolni društveni tajnik (ice). Ko je vse to gotovo se pošlje kartico na gl. urad Jed note.
Z otroškim oddelkom se prične kakor hitro se vpiše 300 otrok.
V otroški oddelek se sprejema le otroke članov in čla-n'c K. S. K. Jednote v starosti od 1. do še ne dovršenega 16. leta.
Pristopnina ali vpisnina vsakega otroka snaša 50c.
Redni mesečni asesment znaša 15c.
Vplačilna knjižica, katero izda gl. urad stane vsakega o-troka 10c.
Smrtnina sa umrlega otroka znaša $100.00. Polsg pristopnine se plača
krbniku; v zadnjem slučaju se mora predložiti od sodni je izdane papirje, di je oskrbnik v resnici od sodni je postavljen varuhom otroka.
To so glavne in zelo važne točke, ki jih je treba natančno vpoštevati in spolnovati. Veliko odgovornosti leži pri

Otroški oddelek nima nobene zveze s zavarovalnino članov in članic Jednote, ter je popolnoma ločen — samostojen oddelek. ■ V slučaju, da bi primanjkovalo denarja za izplačilo smrtnm v otroškem oddelku, se razpiše posebni a-sesment v pokritje izplačil.
Noben otrok ni upravičen do smrtninske podpore, če ni član otroškega oddelka nad 90 dni.
Slučaj, smrti otroka se mora takoj naznaniti tajniku ali tajnici društva. Tajnik(ica) obvesti o tem predsednika ali predsednico in zastopnika ali zastopnico društva, nakar se vsi(e) trije(tri) prepričajo o resničnosti smrti. Kakor hi-'rc se društveni odbor prepriča o resničnosti smrti otroka, poroča o tem na gl. urad Jednote, ter potrdi, da je bil u-mrli v resnici zavarovan v o-troškem oddelku KSKJ. Is-totako mora društveni odbor poslati na urad Jednote mrtvaški list, kateri mora biti pravilno izpopolnjen od društvenega odbora, zdravnika ali Coroner ja, pogrebnika in kjerkoli mogoče tudi od g. duhovnika, ki je Urup^,.umrlega o-
za pravilno poslovanje na društvene odbornike(ice). Uver-jen sem, da bo pri sprejemat nju otrok veliko dela in težav za društvene, kakor tudi za Jednotine uradnike. Toda prepričan sem zopet, da ko se bo cela zadeva enkrat vpeljala in uredila, bo ves trud pozabljen, ker s ponosom bomo arli na korak napredka, ki se bo napravil pri K. S. K. Jed-noci z ustanovitvijo otroškega oddelka.
C. g. 'Rev. Anton Berk in člšn naše slavne Jednote je pisal 9. marca t. 1. v listu "Sloga" o otroškem oddelku K. S. K. Jednote tudi tole: "Sadjerejec bo zmeraj gojil mlada sadna drevesca, da ž njimi nadomesti stara že izdelana in suha drevesa, drugače bo nekega dne vse suho v njegovem sadonosniku.
"Država pokliče vsako leto mlade rekrute pod orožje, da jih izvežba, starejše pa pošlje domov, to se vrsti leto za letom, desetletje za deset let jem.
"Ravno tako potrebuje Jednota rekrutov, ako hoče imeti zasigurano bodočnost."
C. g. Berk je te besede zapisal jako premišljeno, ki so vredne vpoštevanja od celokupnega članstva naše slavne Jednote.

URBANCEVE dvojčici
Društvo sv. Antona Padov. št. 185, Burgettstown, Pa. se lahko ponaša z lepo, ali številno družino sobrata Antona Dvor-šaka. Poleg staršev spada vseh 7 otrok v mladinski oddelek; mod temi sta najmlajša dvojčka.
Sobrat Dvoršak je bil rojen, v Sromljah, pri Brežicah na Štajerskem. V Amerike je prišel 1. 1907. Njegova soproga Mary je bila pa rojena v Nemčiji, v Ameriko je prišla leta 1907 ko je bila stara 4 leta. Poročila sta se dne 22. junija za otroka tudi mesečni ases- 1920. . •	•	r

so vedno urejene tako, da je za njih prav. In če zamorejo take družbe plačevati ogromne plače svojim uradnikom in agentom, ter zidati si velikanske palače, zakaj bi ne mogla K. S. K. Jednota, kot poštena organizacija in prava mati — podpirateljica vdov in sirot s primernimi prispevki vzdrževati otroškega oddelka? Popolnoma lahko! In vsak oče ali mati, ki bo imel (a) svoje otroke zavarovane v otroškem oddelku K. S. K. Jednote, bo znal (a), zakaj plačuje in kakšno podporo bo prejel (a) v slučaju izgube otroka. — zavarovanca (ke).
Dokler oče lahko plača sam za sebe ali za svojo soprogo mesečni asesment pri društveni seji, zakaj bi se mu ne dalo prilike plačati ob enem tudi prispevke za svoje otroke. In ko bo imel priliko to storiti, se bo doma o tem pogovarjal s svojo družino. S tem se bo otroku takoj v mladosti vsa-dila v srce prava ljubezen do katoliških društev in K. S. K. Jednote. Komaj bo otrok čakal, da bo dosegel pravo starost, da bo postal aktiven član društva in Jednote po vzgledu svojega očeta in matere. S tem bomo pridobivali vedno nove člane in članice, bodočnost Jednote bo zasigurana in katoliški značaj med slovenskim narodom v tej, novi domovini bo gojen v sladkem slovenskem jeziku še mnogo, mnogo let, ko mogoče že marsikateri izmed nas ne bo več med živimi.
Na noge torej cenjeni mi bratje in sosestre, ki imate o-troke! Vse je sedaj ležeče na vas. Prej ko boste vpisali svoje otroke, hitreje se bo pričelo poslovanje otroškega oddelka.
K sklepu še enkrat prosim posebno cen j. uradnike in u-radnice krajevnih društev, da predstoječe točke vpoštevajo in se po njih ravnajo pri vpisovanju otrok. Kakor hitro bo priglašenih 300 otrok, hočem o tem naznaniti v Glasilu, kakor tudi sporočiti na društva, da pošljejo pristopnino, a-sesmente .'n prispevek za vplačilno knjižico na urad Jednote.
Dokler ne naznanim društvom radi odpošiljatve otroških prispevkov in asesmentov, naj društva ne pošiljajo denarja.
Zeleč najboljšega uspeha in božjega blagoslova pri novo započetem delu, ostajam z bratskim pozdravom vdani.

MARLJIVE ČLANICE DRUŠTVA ST. 29
Pri letošnjem popularnem kontestir društva sv. Frančiška Sal. št. 2£, Joliet, 111. so bile delujoče gornje tri mlade članice: Na desni strani je Lillian Potočnik, kraljica; v sredi je Edith Flander, pod-kraljica in na levi strani je Olga Pekol, pomočnica. Ta kontest je društvu donesel $300.00 čistega prebitka.

Jednota namerava vpeljati tudi zavarovalnino za otroke od enega do 16. leta. Proti majhnemu me-sečnehiu asesmentu lSe, bodo starini v slučaju smrti zavarovanega otroka prejeli lepo podporo $10040. Kartice za pristop otrok, so bile razposlane na vsa krajevna druitva in kakor hitro se priglasi 300 kandidatov, se hode z otroškim oddelkom takoj pričelo.
Kaj več hočemo? Kje je dobiti ugodnejše prilike zavarovati samega sebe in svoje de-co, nego ravno pri K. S. K. •Tednoti? Ne zamudimo dane prilike! Storimo kar se da storiti danes, ne odlašajmo na jutri!
(Nadaljevanje i X strani)
števati in se ravnati po navodilu priobčenem v Jednotinem Glasilu štev. 12, z dne 29. marca t. 1. Iz omenjenega pojasnila in navodila bo vsaktere-mu uradniku krajevnega društva razvidno, kaj se zahteva in kako se vpisuje otroke.
Glavne točke, ki jih je treba vpoštevati so:
Sprejema se otroke od enega do šestnajstega leta, ko jih stariši so člani Jednote.
Pristopnina za všakega o-troka znaša 50c.
Redni mesečjui asesment bo znašal 15c.
Vplačilna knjižica stane za vsakega otroka 10c.
Te svote bo treba plačati takoj, ko se prične z otroškim oddelkom.
Smrtnina za umrlega otroka bo znašala $100.00.
Vsak otrok bo moral biti 90 dni član otroškega oddelka prej, nego so stariši upravičeni do posmrtnine umrlega o-troka.
Kartice, katere sem razposlal na krajevna društva za vpisovanje otrok, je treba natančno izpolniti, kakor se na kkrticah ali prošnjah zahteva.
Prošnje za pristop, ali kartice morajo biti podpisane od otrokovih starišev, kakor tudi od društvenih uradnikov.
To so glavne točke, po katerih se je treba ravnati pri vpisovanju otrok.
Kakor hitro ima društveni (a) tajnik(ica) prošnje pravilno izgotovljene, naj jih odpošlje na urad Jednote. Z o-troškim oddelkom se prične poslovati, kakor hitro se priglasi 300 otrok.
Denarja za pristop in asesment naj se ne zahteva od starišev, dokler se to ne bo na-z n a n i 1 o potom Jednotinega Glasila ali pa zahtevalo p's-menim potom. Sprva naj se le pošlje prošnje na gl. urad in kakor hitro bo prijavljenih zadostno število otrok, se bo uradnim potom ona društva obvestilo, da so otroci sprejeti v otroški oddelek in se bo tedaj tudi zahtevalo pristopnino, asesment in prispevek za knjižico.
V slučaju,, da katero izmed krajevnih društev ni prejelo odposlanih kartic, naj mi blagovoli javiti in takoj hočem poslati druge. Želeti je, da se pri vsakem krajevnem društvu vpiše kolikor mogoče veliko število otrok. Ce le pomislimo na lepo število članov in članic zbranih pod zastavg K. S. K. Jednote, potem seveda ne bo dolgo časa vzelo, da bomo tudi v otroškem oddelku imeli istotako veliko množico mladih in čilih članov in članic, ki bodo čast in ponos naši slavni organizaciji in vsemu slovenskemu narodu v Ameriki. Večje število otrok, ko pridobimo, toliko krepkejša bo naša Jednota.
Za stariše, ki bodo imeli o-
troke zavarovane pri K. S. K. Jednoti je pa najvažnejše to, da bodo znali, za kaj plačujejo in kaj prejmejo iz blagajne otroškega oddelka v slučaju, da jim nemila smrt ugrabi njih ljubljenca (nko). Mnogo starišev ima otroke zavarovane pri raznih zavarovalnih družbah. Plačujejo tedenske prispevke, toda ne znajo kaj bodo prejeli od družbe v slučaju, da jim otrok umrje. V lepih in sladkih besedah jim govorijo agentjeJn jim zagotavljajo velike svote v slučaju smrti otroka. Toda vse drugače je takrat, ko otrok umrje. Izgovarjajo in sklicujejo se na zakone in točke označene v certifikatih, ki so vselej tako ustrojene, da je za kom-panijo prav in naposled plačajo le kako m^lo svoto za izgubo zavarovanca (nke). Veliko starišev je, ki vedo to iz lastne skušnje. Pri KSKJ. tega ne bo. Vsakteri izmed starišev bo znal zakaj plačuje in kaj bo prejel v slučaju smrti otroka.
Dragi stariši, sedaj imate priliko zavarovati svojo deco, poslužite se prilike in ne od-, lašajte na poznejši čas. Ce boste zavarovali otroke pri K. S. K. Jednoti, ste s tem pokazali pot, po kateri naj hodijo. Ko bodo dosegli pravo starost, postali bodo aktivni člani in članice Jednote, spoznali bodo vašo dobrosrčnost. Učili se bodo spoznavati dobrote in koristi podpornih društev in Jednote. Vcepila se jim bo v srce ljubezen bratstva in narodnosti. In ko bo marsikatero truplo izmed nas spalo že spanje pravičnega, naša mladina se bo še vedno spominjala svojih ljubih starišev rekoč: Moji dragi stariši so me kot dete vpisali v otroški oddelek K. S. K. Jednote z namenom, da bom po njih začrtani poti hodil (a), živel (a). In ker so se moji dobri stariši ravnali po Jednotinem geslu: "Vse za vero, dom in narod," radi tega se hočem tega tudi jaz držati in njih započeto delo nadaljevati.
Vpišite torej otroke kakor hitro mogoče.
S spoštovanjem,
Josip Zalar, glavni tajnik.
Med raznimi poročili, pri-občenim v Glasilu Št. 15, z dne 19. aprila 1916, sem omenil tudi tole:
In ker se bližajo ravno velikonočni prazniki, in ker ob takih praznikih eden ali drugi izmed članov obišče svoje sorodnike, znance in prijatelje, vsled tega priporočam, da vporabi vsakteri lepo priliko in priporoča slavno K. S. K. Jednoto in njeno Glasilo. Pri agitiranju naj se vedno omenja mogočno število članov in članic, ter Jednotino premoženje. Istotako. naj se tudi o-meni, da se sprejema v Jednoto prosilce od 16. do 50. leta. Zavaruje lahko za $1000, $500 ali $250, Ravno tako je
Med tem časom so prihajale v glavni urad prošnje novih članov v tako velikem številu, da se je lahko videlo, da je u-stanovitev otroškega oddelka zagovotvljena in da bo mogoče s poslovanjem pričeti 1. junija. Zato sem v Glasilu št. 19, z dne 17. maja 1916 poročal sledeče: IZ URADA GL. TAJNIKA K. S. K. JEDNOTE Poslovanje z otroškim oddelkom se bo pričelo kakor do sedaj vse kaže s 1. junijem to leto.
Precejšnje število društev prav marljivo nabira nove kandidate in kandidatinje, za kar jim vsa čast in hvala. U-pati je, da se bodo vsa krajevna društva zavzela in pridobila kar največ mogoče veliko število otrok.
Cenjene tajnike(ice) prosim, da pošljejo kartice prosilcev (ilk) /btrok na urad Jednote, kakor hitro so pravilno izpopolnjene.
Apeliram na člane in članice (stariše), da se potrudijo in vpišejo svoje otroke pri društvenih tajnikih in tajnicah. Vsak naj si misli, da je biti bolje prvi nego zadnji, kadar se gre za dobrobit samega sebe in svoje družine.
Prilika vam je dana, ne zamudite torej časa. S pozdravom,
Josip Zalar, S
glavni tajnik. Ideja o ustanovitvi otroškega oddelka se je uresničila. Želja vseh, ki so ta oddelek želeli se je izpolnila, kar je razvidno iz naslednjih dveh uradnih naznanil priobčenih v Glasilu št. 20 z dne 24. maja in štev. 21 z dne 31. maja 1916:
Kar se tiče otroškega oddelka, se tem potom naznanja,
da se prične s poslovanjem 1, junija t. 1. Vsled tega bi priporočal, da Se od starišev, ki so vpisali otroke/zahteva takoj prihodnji mesec sledeče prispevke: Pristopnino 50c, za knjižico 10c in redni mesečni asesment 15c. Torej za vsakega otroka 75c. Ta denar se tekom meseca junija pošlje pod posebno nakaznico na gl. urad Jednote. Pripomniti moram, da denar, pripadajoč v otroški oddelek naj se vedno pošilja tako, 'da ne bo mešan z drugim asesmentom za člane in članice. Najlepše bi bilo, če društveni tajniki(ice) pošljejo otroške prispevke ob času ko pošljejo mesečno poročilo na urad Jednote.
Pobiralne knjige so v delu in kakor hitro bodo gotove, se bodo poslale všem krajevnim društvom, ravno tako bom razposlal tudi plačilne knjižice, kakor hitro mogoče.
Nekatera društva mi do danes še niso vposlala kartic za otroke in je želeti, da se potrudijo in to storijo.
S spoštovanjem in bratskim pozdravom;

Pobiralne knjige in vplačilne knjižice bom tekom meseca junija razposlal.
Dolgo zaželjeni otroški oddelek je torej ustanovljen, želja staršev, prijateljev in prijateljic napredka in razvoja naše Jednoto se je izpolnila. Ogromno in težko delo nas čaka, toda v združenju je moč in če delujemo složno, sem uverjen, da bomo z veseljem in ponosom zrli na krasen korak napredka pri naši mogočni organizaciji.
Apeliram na vse starše-člane K. S. K. Jednote, ki še niso vpisali svojih otrok v otroški oddelek, da to storijo, kar bo v njihovo lastno korist, v korist in ponos njih otrok ter v časten procvit in napredek K .S. K. Jednote!"

Iz gornje tabelice je razvidno, da se je ob začetku poslovanja tega oddelka najbolj ponašalo društvo sv. Jožefa, št. 53, Waukegan, 111., namreč s 144 člani; temu društvu je sledilo društvo Marije Pomagaj št. 79 tudi v Waukeganu, 111., s 93 člani. Ako prištejemo k temu še število članstva mladinskega oddelka pri društvu sv. Ane št. 127, namreč 10, katero društvo posluje tudi v Waukeganu, dobimo skupno število 247 članov, ali dobro petino izmed tedanjega celokupnega članstva našega ; mladinskega oddelka. Vsa čast
1 in priznanje torej waukeganski naselbini, ker je pomagala zibati naš mladinski oddelek ob \iegovem rojstvu!
Tretje največje društvo z mladimi člani je bilo tedaj društvo sv. Cirila in Metoda št. 59, E-veleth, Minn.; štelo jih je 78; na četrtem mestu pa je bilo društvo sv. Frančiška Sal. št. 29, Joliet, 111., s 57 člani. Vseh : skupaj je imelo pred 20 leti 65 naših krajevnih društev svoj m'adinski oddelek, dandanes pa znaša skupno število takih društev 176.
Otroški oddelek je bil torej ustanovljen 1. junija 1916. Takoj v začetku tu navedenih zgodovinskih podatkov je omenjeno, da državni zakon oni čas ni dopuščal bratskim podpornim organizacijam sprejemati člane manj kot 16 let stare. Temeljem državnega zakona, bratskim podpornim organizacijam ni bilo dovoljeno poslovati z o-trošklmi oddelki.
Nam se je posrečilo ustanoviti otroški oddelek edinole na podlagi pisma od strani državnega zavarov. načelnika Hon. Rufus M. Potts-a.
Na vprašanje, če se sme otroški oddelek ustanoviti in če smejo starši otrok prostovoljno prispevati prispevke v gotov sklad, iz katerega sklada bi se staršem izplačala gotova svota denarja za kritje pogrebnih ( stroškov v slučaju smrti otroka zavarovanca, je Mr. Potts izjavil, da če starši želijo v tak namen prostovojno prispevati, se jim tega od strani državnega zavaroval, departmenta ne bo branilo, tola vplačanih prispevkov se ne sme mešati z denarjem odraslega oddelka. Ravno Itf-ko je državni zavarovalninski i načelnik izjavil, da otroški od-'	(Dalje aa 4. strani)

NAŠIM MLADIM JEDHOTARJEM V POKLON M POZDRAV
Odkar izhaja ta list, tekom zadnjih 22 let, je danes že drugi slučaj da ga lahko čitate v tako veliki obliki, ali povečani izdaji na 16 straneh. Prvič je obsegal toliko strani ob 25-letnici naše Jednote, leta 1919, predstoječa številka je pa v obče posvečena našim mladim Jednotarjem, oziroma našemu mladinskemu oddelku, ki obhaja baš te dni svojo 20-letnico.
Marsikdo izmed vas, ki je bil prfed toliko leti še dojenček, ali v naročju svoje matere, je danes že zal mladenič ali dražestna mladenka; drugi, ali oni, ki ste tačasno šteli že nekaj več let, ste danes že srečni možje, žene, očetje in matere. Vaša mesta so pa zopet nastopili v mladinskem oddelku zopet drugi mladi Jednotarji in Jednotarice, ki se bodo lahko veselili srebrnega jubileja tega oddelka. Tako je zakon narave in življenja, da se vedno vrstimo in drugim umikamo...	'
Z Vami vred se 20-letnice mladinskega oddelka veselimo tudi mi, starejši, katerim se solnce življenja nagiba že k zatonu. Lepo število vas je zbranih pod zastavo naše drage Jednote, prve in najstarejše slovenske podporne organizacije v Ameriki, vsled česar ste lahko ponosni. Ko se bomo enkrat preselili v večnost, bo vsa Jednota, oziroma večmili-jonsko njeno premoženje vam izročeno kakor naša dota; to je sad našega trudapolnega 42-letnega dela pri Jednoti, katerega boste vi uživali in vaši potomci, kajti naša K. S. K. Jednota bo poslovala še mnogo, mnogo let z božjo pomočjo in dobro voljo njenega članstva.
Na našo mladino smo mi vsi ponosni, saj mladina je most, ki spaja eno generacijo z drugo. Mladina je naša bodočnost. Mladina je trdna vez med včerajšnjim dnevom in današnjim. Mladina je naš up in podlaga Jednote, zato naj živi, uspeva in napreduje še leta in leta!
Naj k sklepu velja še naš skromen izraz spoštovanja in iskrene zahvale onemu možu, ki se je največ trudil za uresničenje mladinskega oddelka KSKJ., našemu vrlemu glavnemu tajniku, sobratu Jos. Zalarju. O tem prizadevanju lahko čitate več strani današnje izdaje. Upamo in želimo, da bi sobrat Zalar zdrav in čil in vedno tako vnet za našo Jed-noto kot glavni tajnik dočakal še srebrni jubilej tega oddelka in tudi zlati jubilej naše Jednote.

Anton Kordanova družina v CWvlandu (Newburg), O.
V Newburgu, ki je del naše ameriške slovenske metropole našega znanega Cleve-landa, O., je najstarejše in največje društvo KSKJ, društvo sv. Lovrenca št. 63, pri katerem sobrat Anton Kordan vodi tajništvo že celih 18 let. Vsled njegovega prizadevanja je bilo v raznih naših kampa-
mi vrsticami spomnimo, saj spada vsa njegova družina, broječa enajst članov, k naši Jednoti; takih posnemanja vrednih družin je malo!
Sobrat Kordan, oče te ponosne družine, je star 54 let; doma je iz vasi Prevolje, fara Dole pri Litiji. V Ameriki živi že 24 let. Njegova so-

Druga (gornja) vrsta: Alfonz 18, Stanislava 21, Bogomir 16 in Anton ml. 22 let.
Najmlajše v družini, Geral-dine, stare poldrugo leto, ni na sliki.
Naj bo k sklepu še dostavljeno, da je sobrat Kordan kampanjski načelnik navedenega društva, ki bo gotovo svojo nalogo dobro izvršil.

delek ne sme imeti ncbene zveze z oddelkom aktivnega članstva.
Iz tega razloga se otroški oddelek ni mogel imenovati kot pomožen oddelek Jednote, temveč je bil to le družaben (soei-jalen) in samostojen oddelek.
Ni šlo za to, kako se bo otroški oddelek legalnim potom imenoval, slo je v prvi vr3ti za to, da se ustanovi oddelek, v katerega se bo lahko sprejemalo o-troke članov Jednote.
Zakaj smo želeli tak oddelek? Zate, ker smo v njem videli največje koristi za Jcdnoto, otroke in njih starše. In kakor smo mi videli koristi v otroškam oddelku, tako je videlo take koristi tudi članstvo raznih drugih bratskih podpornih organizacij.
Z vso resnostjo se je delalo na to, da bi se državni zakon v toliko premenil, da bi bilo dovoljeno bratskim podpornim organizacijam sprejemati otroke. V tem so bili posebno delavni u-radniki "Bratskega kongresa države Illinois" (Illinois Fraternal Congress) in uradniki "Narodnega bratskega kongresa' (National Fraternal Congress).
S kakšno požrtvovalnostjo se je delalo za dosego pravic, da bi smele bratske podporne organizacije poslovati z otroškimi oddelki, naj služi v dokaz naslednje poročilo:
A GREAT STEP FORWARD Fraternals Winning Their Way. Supt. Rtifus M. Potts, of Illinois, Makes New Ruling.
reaching influence in fraternal and industrial insurance. He holds that fraternals licensed in Illinois may accept minors as members, the purpose being whole -family insurance, long sought by fraternals.
%4This action was taken after a conference yesterday at the Hotel Sherman with the executive committee of the Illinois Fraternal Congress, officials of the National Fraternal Congress and representatives of a large number of societies. For some time the National Fraternal Congress has been agitating the question of whole - family insurance,especially since the industrial life insurance com,-panies began writing group insurance.
already famous and historic in the annals of the fraternal societies.
The entire fraternal system is indebted to the Insurance Superintendent of Illinois for this great forward step in extending and enlarging thi^ system's scope of activity and usefulness. In making his new ruling, Mr. Potts not only had to reverse the rule that'has up to the present time prevailed in the Insurance Department of Illinois relative to the minimum age of entrants into fraternal societies, byt he had to go far into a new field and establish a ruling which other States seem reluo-tant or hesitant to adopt. To do this in the face of present conditions required intelligence and courage of the highest order. The Superintendent Potts is abudantly endowed with these high qualities has been demonstrated on more than one occasion. The people of the great State of Illinois are fortunate in having such a man as supervisor of their insurance affairs. The Governor of the State is to be highly commended in making the fchoice of such c man for
that the acceptance of such minors was not in violation of the statute, or the policy of the laws of this State, in relation to such matters.
"It is therefore ruled by tht Insurance Superintendent of the State of Illinons that fraternal beneficiary societies, licensed and authorized to do business in the State of Illinois, may accept minors as beneficial members in such societies, the same as adults, provided that their acceptance is upon an equitable and actuarially sound basir and in keeping with the fundamental principles of fraternal insurance.

Gornje poročilo sem prejel 20. oktobra 1916. To poročilo mi je poslal Mr. E. J. Dunn, glavni uradnik Loyal American Life Association, • Chicago, Illinois, ki je bil istočasno tudi član pododbora za sestavo in formiranje načrta, za predložitev konvenciji državnih zavarovalninskih komisarjev.

mati ravno tako kot odrasle osebe.
Pri K. S. K. Jednoti smo u-stanovili otroški oddelek s 1. junijem letošnjega leta in reči moram, da ta oddelek izborno napreduje. V tem kratkem času je pristopilo 1700 otrok. To nam dokazuje, da se članstvo naše organizacije zanima za otroški oddelek in je upati, da se čimdalje več otrok vpiše.	•
Cenjenim tajnikom in tajnicam krajevnih društev naznanjam, da s prihodnjim mesecem bom izdal razpis as*s-mentov tudi za otroke. Sprva sem mislil, da bo mogoče poslovati brez razpisa, toda iz-previdel sem, da ne gre, zaradi tega sem priredil nove listine, na podlagi katerih bom razpisoval asesment ravno tako, kakor za člane in članice Jednote. S tem bo nekoliko več dela za glavni urad, kakor tudi za postajne tajnike in tajnice. Poskušal sem to delo odstraniti, toda uvidel sem, da se ne da, če hočemo imeti pravilno in točno poslovanje. Vsled tega upam, da se društveni tajniki in tajnice ne bodo hudovali, če bodo ime-li(e) nekoliko več dela, bodo pa radi tega imeli (e) poslovanje natančneje, ki jih bo obvarovalo pred morebitnimi zmešnjavami in pomotami.
Razpis asesmenta bo izdelan po načinu, kakor oni članov in članic. Duplikat obdrži društvo, tri p likat pa se vrne na gl. urad z denarjem. Denar naj se pošlje na glavni urad potom društvenega zastopnika ali zastopnice istočasno, kakor se pošlje denar za člane in članice. Prosi se pa, da se za otroški asesment pošlje denar na posebni denarni nakaznici ali čeku. Priporočljivo bi bilo, kakor
bi
Oglasite se takoj pri drultv. tajniku (ici) svojega društva in zavarujte svojo deco, ker ne vesta, kje jih čaka nesreča.
Z bratskim pozdravom, JOS. ZALAR, gl. tajnik.
Z izjavo državnega zavarovalniškega načelnika, s katero je določil, da je dovoljeno bratskim podpornim organizacijam spre jemati poleg odraslih Članov tudi otroke, je otroški oddelek prenehal biti "samostojen oddelek" in je tako postal POMOŽEN oddelek ali del K. S. K. Jednote.
Dne 13. decembra 1916 se je v mestu New York vršila narodna konvencija državnih zavarovalninskih komisarjev — (Insurance Commissioners). — Na priporočilo komiteja Narodnega* bratskega kongresa, so komisarji, zbrani na dotič-ni konvenciji odobrili predlogo, potom katere bi bilo dovoljeno bratskim podpornim organizacijam sprejemati o-troke. Predloga je določevala, v kakšni starosti se sme o-troke sprejemati, koliko sme znašati posmrtninska zavarovalnina, kakor tudi po kakšni plačilni lestvici se mora plačevati mesečni asesment. V predlogi je bilo tudi določeno, da morajo biti prosilci zdravniško preiskani, prej kot se jih zamore sprejeti v otroški oddelek.
Predloga, odobrena pri o-menjeni konvenciji, je bila potom državnih komisarjev predložena zakonodaj cem v odobritev.
Zakonodajci raznih držav so predlogo odobrili, nakar je postala državni zakon. Ko je državni zakon določeval, da smejo bratske podporne organizacije poslovati z mladinskimi oddelki, se je tudi pri naši Jednoti spremenilo ime otroški" v "mladinski odde-

Od 1. junija 19X6 do 81. januarja 1920, se od članov mladinskega oddelka ni zahtevalo zdravniške preiskave. Od 1. februarja 1920 pa se zahteva zdravniško preiskavo. Sprejema se otroke v starosti od 1. do 16. teta.
Ravno tako se je od ustanovitve mlad. oddelka pa do 31. januarja 1920 plačalo za umrlim članom $100.00. S 1. februarjem 1920 pa se je pričelo posmrtnino za umrlimi člani izplačevati po naslednji tabeli:

štvo mladinskega oddelka plačevalo, kakor tudi lestvico, koliko bi se plačalo smrtnine za vsak slučaj na podlagi starostnega leta enega ali drugega člana ali članice. Tukaj Vam predložim štiri tabele, sestavljene po aktuarju. Meni najbolj ugaja tabela št. 1, ki določuje posmrtnino od $17.00 do $450.00.
Pripravil sem tudi načrt pravil. Vsled tega je bil poklican k seji in sicer z dovoljenjem brata preds. Jermana, pravni odbor Jednote, da pravila mladinskega oddelka pregleda in pripravi. Pravila, ki sem jih pripravil, ni rečeno, da jih mora pravni odbor v celoti sprejeti oziroma odobriti. Pravni odbor po pre-
goče počakati s celo zadevo do prihodnje konvencije, toda j vidnosti lahko točke črta,~do-ker morajo biti poročila izde-'da ali p0pravi. lana in poslana do 1. marca, g tem gem QznažiI vge važ_ na razne državne departmente,!nejše ^ zahtevajo nuj_

trolo glavnega odbora Jednote in vsled tega ima glavni odbor pravico ukreniti vse potrebno radi reorganizacije.
Z dovoljenjem brata predsednika Jermana sem pisal aktuarju, da pripravi potrebno lestvico, po kateri bi član-
slu državnih zakonov in predpisov.
Beležim spoštovanjem Vam vdani:
JOSIP ZALAR, gl. tajnik.
Pravni odbor je pravila pregledal in potrdil, ter priporočil", da jih glavni odbor odobri.

Članom,	ki prestopijo	v. od-
Zakonska Andrej in Mary Bavec, člana društva Marije Čistega Spočetja št. 211, Chicago, 111. se med vsemi drugimi družinami lahko ponašata, da imata največje število svojih otrok v našem mladinskem oddelku in sicer 9. Take družine nima tudi nobeno drugo društvo KSKJ.
Po starosti so sledeči: Andrej ml. star 15 let, Mary 13 let, Julia 12, Frank 11, Tonček 9, Anna 7, Frances 4, Edward 2
in Johnny star 5 mesecev.
Oče, sobrat Bavec je doma iz Smarate št. 13, fara Loz na Notranjskem, mati je pa dema iz Dolenjcev, fara Adlešiči, na Dolenjskem.	........1 ...
Asesment je ostal isti, to je 15 centov mesečno se je zahtevalo od vsakega člana in članice mladinskega oddelka.
Na naši XVI. redni konvencij f, ki se je Vršila avgusta meseca 1926" v Pittsburghu, Pa., je bilo sklenjeno, da se sprejema otroke takoj po rojstvu pa do starosti 16 let. To pravilo je stopilo v veljavo 1. j an. 1927.
Pri XVII. redni konvenciji, vršeči se avgusta meseca 1930 v Waukeganu, 111., se je določilo, da se članstvo mladinskega oddelka razdeli v dva razreda in sicer v razred "A" in razred "B". To pravilo je stopilo v veljavo 1. jan. 1931.
V razred "A" spadajo vsi oni otroci, ki plačujejo mesečno 15c. V razred "B" pa spadajo vsi oni, ki plačujejo mesečno 30c.
Za umrlega člana razreda "A" se plača posmrtnina po sledeči tabeli:
Prva številka znači starost ob smrti pri prihodnjem rojstnem dnevu, druga številka pa označuje določeno smrtn'no. 1 — $20; 2 — 34; 8 — 40; 4 — 48, 5 — 58; 6 — 140; 7 —168; 8 — 200; 9 — 240; 10 — 300; 11 — 380; 12 — 150; 13 _ 450; 14 — 450; 15 — 450; 16 — 450.
Za umrlega člana razreda B" se plača posmrtnina po naslednji tabeli: (Številke pomenijo tako kot zgoraj):
1 — $25; 2 — 50; 3 — $75; 4 — 100; 5 — 150; 6 — 200; 7 — 300; 8 — 400; 9 — 500; 10 — 600; 11 — 700; 12 — 800; 13 — 900; 14 — 1000; 15 — 1000; 16 — 1000.
Za člane, ki so dopolnili 16. leto in so prestopili v oddelek odraslega članstva, se je iz sklada mladinskega oddelka izplačevalo potrebno svoto za prestop v aktivni oddelek.
Od 1. marca 1934 naprej, pa se takim članom in članicam izplačuje rezervo njih certifikata in sicer:
rasli oddelek in se zavarujejo za več kakor $600.00 posmrtnino, se plača poleg gornje rezerve tudi $2.00 za zdravniško preiskavo. Poleg tega se plača še posebno nagrado za vsakega prestoplega člana in članico, ki se v odraslem oddelku zavaruje za več kakor $600.00. *
V teku dvajsetih let je v mladinski oddelek pristopilo nad 28,000 članov in članic. Na tisoče izmed teh jih je prestopilo v aktivni oddelek. Umrlo jih je 444. Posmrtnine se je izplačalo $94,007.00.
Mladinski oddelek je bil u-stanovljen z 1313 člani in članicami, junija meseca 1. 1916 je znašalo premoženje tega oddelka $963.20. Danes šteje mladinski oddelek 11,388 in i-metje tega oddelka znaša — $168,372.88.
Koncem leta 1935 je znašala solventnost mladinskega oddelka 273.51 odstotkov.
Ker je finančno stališče mladinskega oddelka zelo povolj no, zato je glavni odbor določil, da se asesment za mesece % junij in julij tekočega leta opusti. Ravno tako se je leta 1933 suspendiralo asesment za mescee avgust, september in oktober.
To so kratki zgodgvijiski podatki poslovanja mladinskega oddelka preteČenih dvajset let. Res je bilo veliko težavnega dela z ustanovitvijo tega oddelka. Tudi nasprotovanja in oporekanja ni manjkalo. Mnogo grenkih je bilo treba " preslišati. Marsikaj se je moralo prestati in pretrpeti. Toda danes, ko praznujemo 20-letnico tega prekorist-nega oddelka, eo pozabljene vse težave, pozabljeno je vse trpljenje. Z največjim ponosom in zadovoljstvom gledamo koristi, ki jih je mladinski oddelek tekom minulih 20 let doprinesel za našo dično Jed-noto, za otroke in starše, ki so bili tako zavedni, da so vpisali svoje otroke v mladinski oddelek K. S. K. Jednote.
Naj mladinski oddelek naše Jednote cvete, raste in napreduje še leta in leta!
Prisrčne pozdrave vsem, posebno pa članom in članicam mladinskega oddelka!

K 20 LETNICI MLADINSKEGA ODDELKA KSKJ
(Deklamacija na proslavi društva sv. Frančiška Sal. št. 29, Joliet, lil, dne 3. maja 1936)
Danes praznik je mladine društva našega tu zbrane, dan prevažen zgodovine za vse članice in člane.
Leta lepa so minila ko Jednota si mladike je v gredico zasadila, ki postajajo velike.
In pri tem vrtnar marljivi, kopal prvo je ledino, sej al seme je na njivi, v mislih je imel mladino.
Dvajset let gredice svoje pridno, skrbno že zaliva; danes pa veselja poje, ker sadove krasne vživa.
Sobrat Zalar, Vam priznanje tega vrlega vrtnarja gre,—saj delo vse nekdanje sad plačuje in ustvarja.
Naj zato Vas Bog ohrani, čuva, Vam deli dobrote, da še dolgo bi živeli, bili tajnik te Jednote!
Ko se je leta »16 ustanovil mladinski oddelek KSKJ, je bila s tem dana lepa priložnost vsemu članstvu, da lahko zavaruje svoje otroke v svoji lastni in katoliški orga-nisaciji, pri KSKJ. Dobri in agilni uradniki našega društva so šli takoj na delo in pričeli nabirati otroke za ta prepo-trebni in važen oddelek. Takoj prvi mesec (junij) so jih pridobili 57. Prvo številko pri našem društvu je imel Edward J. Lekan, sin istočasnega tajnika Johna Lekana. I-mena otrok ob ustanovitvi mladinskega oddelka sledijo tukaj kakor so bili vpisani po številkah v naši knjigi: Edward J., John in Marie E. Lekan; Martin, Theresa, Matt, in Rafael Težak; Joseph F. Edward M., in Catherine F. Rozich; Anton, Frank, Joseph, Elizabeth in Anna Legan; Mayme in Matilda Launch; Joseph in Helen Rozich; Joseph in Frank Kozlevčar; Fr. in Joseph Plut; Matthew, Joseph," Mary, Christina in Anne Babich; William, Nicholas in Stephen Jurjevich; Albert in Mary Terlep; Florian J., Elizabeth, Michael, Albert, Edward, Frances in Frank Stig-lic; (otrok te družine je bilo največ), Marian Musich; John Puc; Catherine, jlose in Ig-natz Ausec; Joseph, Barbara, Mary, Frances, Matilda in Anna Bauer; Frank, Mary in Matilda Kolman, Leonard, Leona in Albert Terlep.
Skupno število članstva pri, mlad. oddelku našega društva je bilo po letih sldeče: 1. junija 1916—57. Koncem istega leta — 72. Leta 1917 — 98. L. 1918 —.117. Leta 1919 — 200. Leta 1920 — 226. Leta 1921
—	437. Leta 1922 — 422. Leta 1923 — 422. Leta 1924» 492. Leta 1925 — 504. Leta 1927
—	457., Leta 1928 — 452. Leta 1929 — 409. Leta 1930 — 389. Leta 1931 — 374. Leta 1932 — 364. Leta 1933 — 467. Leta 1934 — 374. Leta 1935 — 380. 31. maja 1936 — 381. — Leta 1925 — 510.
Največje število otrok je bilo pri društvu 31. marca leta 1925 in sicer 517.
Danes imajo po 6 otrok pri društvu sledeče družine: Jakob in Frances Bajt, Valentin in Uršula Ambrose, Joseph in Pauline Russ in vdova Theresa Staresinich. — Družine s 5 otroci: Frank in Maymie Launch, Michael in Mary Fran-kovich, Martin in Mary Tezak, John in Frances Sterle, Mike in AnSela Setina, Matt in Mary Dragovan, Anton in Anna Horvat, Harry in Mary Mc Murray, Anton in Johana Pirc in Marcus in Barbara Plut. Tu označenih 20 družin našega društva ima 118 otrok. Dalje imamo v mladinskem oddelku tri pare dvojčkov: William in Mary Hrebec, rojena 8. decembra 1919; Bernard in Bernice Puncar, roj. 10. avg. 1922 in Jane Grace in Joe Ann Gregorich, rojene 5. avgusta 1932. (Slednji sta hčerki društvenega tajnika). Ko smo obhajali 5 letnico obstanka mladinskega oddelka, je "bilo pri našem društvu šest parov dvojčkov.
Ker je v tem letu zopet o-tvorjena jubilejna kampanja mlad. oddelka ali zlata kampanja KSKJ booster j ev, zato prosim še par družin, katere še nimate svojih otrok pri društvu, da jih sedaj vpišete; priložnost vam je zadosti u-godna; zdravniška preiskava je prosta, še 50c se vam nudi za vsakega otroka; meseca junija in julija je tudi prost a-sesment, torej kaj hočete še več? Ali vam morda kaka Life insurance kompanija nudi kaj boljšega? Jaz mislim in sem prepričan, da NE! Zatorej bodite previdni in vpišite vse svoje otroke v mla-
dinaki oddelek pri društvu, kamor tudi vi spadate, kajti s tem tudi samim sebi koristite. Ko bi jaz imel dobeseden go-
kajti rs« hi imeli, da bi nam kaj ve pomagale na prihodnjem pikn ko«- kajti to je tudi drage nam sestre vaša dol?-
vor našega č. g. župnika in nost da delate tudi ve v ko-Jednotinega duhovnega vodje Rev. John Plevnika, katerega je imel dne 3. maja na naši proslavi 201etnice tega oddelka, bi ga tukaj navedel, pa bi se marsikomu srce odprlo za
njegovo lastno društvo. Torej še je čas, da se zdaj po-služite lepe priložnosti, katero vam nudi naša K. S. K. Jednota v tej jubilejni kampanji mladinskega oddelka.
S sobratskim pozdravom, John Gregorich, tajnik.

Društvo Friderik Baraga, št. 93, Chisholm, Minn. Našemu pokojnemu sobrutu v spomin
Dne 27. maja smo v lepem sprevodu spremili k večnemu počitku na Calvary pokopališče našega pokojnega člana Antona Skerjanca, ki je preminul po dolgem, dveletnem bolehanju dne 24. maja.
Pokojnik je bil rojen pred 49 leti v Trbovljah na Štajerskem; v Ameriki je živel 27 let; bil je vedno dober in zvest član našega društva. Ob začetku svetovne vojne je odšel v Camp Louis, Wash., od tam pa na Francosko; tam si je nakopal vsled vojne strahote in strupenih plinov neozdravljivo bolezen.
Sprevoda so se udeležili tudi vojni veterani našega mosta in številno občinstva. Ra-kev je bila pokrita z zvezdnato ameriško zastavo kakor je to navada pri takih pogrebih in na pokopališču mu je oddelek veteranov oddal zadnjo salvo v slovo, tako mu je ob zaključku ob odprtem grobu zapela tudi vojaška trobenta do onega časa, ko ga zbudi

in dobri deklici Margareti Duša, ki je bila rojena 4. oktobra 1929, umrla opolnoči med 16. in 17. majem 1936 v starosti 6 let in 7. mesecev. Gornja slika nam jo predstavlja staro 4 leta. V naše društvo je pristopila dne 22. junija 19,54.
Pogreb pokojne se je vršil 20. maja ob ogromni udeležbi šolske mladine naše farne šole. Vsi prvoobhajanci so jo spremljali iz hiše žalosti v cerkev. Vsa dekleta so bila belo oblečena prav kakor na dan prvega sv. obhajila 17. maja, za katerega je bila pripravljena tudi ona, pa Bog je odločil drugače. Opolnoči na ravnoisti dan je poslal ange-lja smrti, da je odpeljal našo Margareto pred nebeški oltar, kjer je prejela pred Bogom v nebesih svoje prvo sv. obhajilo, kjer bo na večno molila in častila Boga.
Da je sedaj naša mala Margareta pri nebeškem oltarju, to smo kar živo prepričani, saj je bila tako dobra deklica, da je vedno z veseljem ustregla vsem materinim željam. In kako se je zdaj lepo pripravljala za dan prvega sv. obhajila. Ker se ni dobro počutila, je morala iti v bolnišnico dne 11. maja.
Približal se je 17. maj, dan prvega sv. obhajila; tedaj je naša Marjetica z materjo vred prosila zdravnike, naj jo pustijo domov samo za ta dan. Ko so zdravniki slišali to nedolžno deklico, niso mogli odreči njeni prošnji. Prišla je torej domov 16. maja. Zvečer istega dne je šel Rev. Victor Virant na njen dom, da je mala Margaret opravila svojo prvo spoved, in tako je bila vsa pripravljena za drugi dan (nedeljo), da bi z drugimi šolarji pristopila prvič k mizi Gospodovi. Pa Bog jo je vzel k sebi k večni, nebeški mizi, kjer bo za vse prosila in molila.
Pokoj niča zapušča globoko žalujočo mamico, očeta, ki je že pet let bolan in bratca Franka, enajst let starega.
Naše društvo sv. Helene je priredilo pokojni deklici krasen pogreb. Naj sedaj pri Bogu in patroni našega društva, sv. Heleni prosi tudi za uspeh društva! Žalujočim staršem in bratu izrekamo naše iskreno sožalje.

SEDEM TEDNOV V BOLNIŠNIC7 Cleveland, O. — Sedem dolgih tednov v bolnišnici ni bila
ce, da ne bi on pristopil k njemu in ako ima količkaj sv. vere v sebi, ga on potrdi, izpo-ve in prinese sv. obhajilo. On je pravi mašnik božji in po-snemalec našega misijonarja in škofa Friderika Barage. Ž njim sva sklenila tako trdno
nikaka malenkost in tudi m bogve koliko, ako človek pomi- j prijateljstvo, da me je celo sli, da si je zdrobil ali docela! pridobil za svojega farana in
uničil fundament svojega telesa. To so noge, katere te nosijo po tem širnem svetu. Brez nog ne moreš nikamor, to sem se prepričal in ne želim nikomur drugemu, da bi kaj takega poskusil.
Te besede sem zapisal iz dna srca in i* hvaležnosti do vas vseh, kateri ste mi bili v tem času tako zelo naklonjeni in radodarni. Iz srca se zahvalim vsem tistim, kateri ste me prišli obiskat v bolnišnico in zraven še kaj prinesli. Verjemite mi, da so obiskovalci najboljše zdravilo za bolnika. S tem ne mislim samo društvenih obiskovalcev, ampak svojce, prijatelje in znance. V tem sem se sam prepričal. Nekega dne pripeljejo bolnika iz sosedne sobe v mojo sobo. Bil je mož že precej zrele starosti. Med drugim mi je povedal, da*se nahaja že čez tri mesece v bolnišnici in sam ne ve, zakaj so ga spet dali v drugo sobo.
"O, saj me ne bodo več dolgo vozarili, ne," je mrmral sam pri sebi.
"Kaj pa mislite s tem, prijatelj?" sem se oglasil. "Vendar ne mislite, da boste umrli, saj ne izgledate tako slaboten."
"Ne, nisem še tako slab, toda docela obupan in žalosten. Kakor sem že rekel, nahajam se že čez tri mesece v bolnišnici in v vsem tem času nisem imel niti enega svojega človeka, da bi prišel k moji poste-J
obljubil sem mu, da takoj, ko bom zopet sposoben za na noge, da bom spet lahko hodil po dveh, se bom za stalno preselil v njegovo faro.

LAJKOVIČ SPOZNAN SLABOUMNIM x Willard, Wis. — Dne 25. maja se je na tukajšnjem o-krajnem sodišču v Neillsville, Wis., vršila sodni j ska obravnava napram tukajšnjemu slovenskemu farmarju Franku Lajkoviču, kateri je, kakor je bilo že poročano, dne 18. februarja do smrti ustrelil svojo ženo in malega sinčka.
Obravnava je bila zelo kratka, ker so Lajkoviča zdravniki spoznali slaboumnim. Njegova zagovornika sta zahtevala, naj zadeva pride pred poroto in naj ista razsodi, je li Laj-kovich zdrav ali ne. Sodnik E. W. Crosby pa tega ni dovolil, temveč je odredil, da se Lajkoviča pošlje v državni zavod v Madison, Wis., za na-dalnje opazovanje njegovega zdravstvenega stanja.

Dorothy Cerkvenik Frances, Doma sem iz Spokane, Wash., Chapic ^nna, Klemene Hel* in od tam do tukaj je velika daljava, tako da nobeden mojih sorodnikov ne premore, da bi me prišel obiskat. Tako bom moral od žalosti in dolgočasja, popolnoma pozabljen od vsega sveta tukaj umreti."
In res, čez par dni je ubogi mož izdihnil svojo blago dušo. Iz tega lahko verjamete, da je obiskovanje bolnikov pravo zdravilo za bolnika, boljše, kot ga more predpisati najslavnejši zdravnik. Saj nas sama sv. katoliška Cerkev uči v lepi molitvici sedmerih de! usmiljenja: bolnike obiskovati.
Za obiskovanjem pa pridejo darila. Vsako, najsibo še tako malo darilce, katerega dobi bolnik, posebno kadar se nahaja v bolnišnici, je tako milo in čudodelno, da bolnik misli, da je najsrečnejši človek na svetu, čeprav, je radi svojega trpljenja vsega pomi-

West Pullman, Chicago, 111.
— West Pullman je mala slovenska naselbina pa je že dala našemu narodu duhovnika Rev. M. J. Hiti-ja in zdravnika dr. Janc-a. Lepo število Slovencev ima svoje domove, katero okolico krasijo krasni drevoredi in drugi nasadi. Da-si mali po številu in zadnji izmed naseljencev, tudi tukaj Slovenci prednjačijo drugim narodom v marsičem, kar je gotovo v čast našemu narodu v splošno.

Cleveland, O.—Now that St. Christine's Society, No. 219, has passed the quota set for it in the KSKJ Golden Booster Membership Campaign, George Kaliope, manager, paused to comment on the success of his society.
"I wish to extend my appreciation and thanks to the members of St. Christine's Society
Joliet, 111.—Interest in the KSKJ Golden Booster Campaign is increasing from day to day. In last week's issue of Glasilo it was reported that 64 societies are participating in the current drive for new members. This week, I am happy to report, the active society list has been augmented to 73 societies, all at work in recruiting new members.
During the month of May, 200 new juvenile members were admitted, representing 73,564 points and $172,050.00 in new insurance written.
Last week's drive was marked by the splendid showing of Brother Frank Erzen, campaign manager of St. Joseph's No. 169, Cleveland, O., and Brother Anton Kordan, veteran for the splendid co-operation in active secretary and campaign manager of St. Lawrence's Society, No. 63 of Cleveland. Twenty-four members were signed up by St. Joseph's and 21 by St. Lawrence's.
Brother Frank Erzen and Anton Kordan are deserving of the highest praise and compliments. Thanks is also due to all campaign managers, society officials and members who are co-operating in this membership drive.
Continued application of the present interest and effort will surely result in success!
Hoping that the remaining societies will join in this wonderful work, I am,
With fraternal regards, JOSEPH ZALAR, Supreme Secretary.

MEETING NOTICE
Chardon, O. — The next meeting of St. Anthony De Padua Society, No. 251, will be held June 13, at 8. p. m. in the regular place. All members are urged, to attend.
THE YOUNGSTER SAID "GA-GAf
Editor's Note: The following is a fictitious story.
"Find out what the youngsters think about the KSKJ juvenile department!" That's the order this reporter received before he went on a scouting tour of Cleveland.
Since most of the members were in schools, the scribe concentrated his search for a preschool age member. He didn't have to search very long until he found a bouncing baby boy aged 2 crawling on the floor while playing with blocks. His mother permitted an interview, and here it is:
1.	Do you know that your father and mother enrolled you in the KSKJ because it is one of the best unions of its kind?
"Ga-ga,!" There was no hesitation about the response. (Gaga, if you will consult an authoritative baby-talk dictionary, you will learn, means "Yes.")
2.	Your dues paid by your parents, you understand, are a saving and a protection to the family?
"Ga-ga!"
3. Do you hope some day to play baseball or basketball with your lodge team?
At this point the youngster picked up a block and in "Lefty" Grove fashion threw a combination curve upshoot that hit the reporter square in the eye. The answer, of course, was "Ga-ga." No doubt about that. A round of laughter and up-shooting arms—such fun, and what an arm! The mother said' acorns
KSK.J
Marches on
Toard its second score of attainment! Last week marked the 20th anniversary since the inception of the juvenile department, and we look back upon a past of successes which have given KSKJ fame and endeared it in the hearts of its upholders. We cannot but hope that the succeeding years will prove as gratifying so that we may continue to cherish the ideals of the KAKJ.
From the report showing booster points, Ohio is holding the top-notch position in KSK J's colossal drive for expansion.
The rise to this position was spectacular considering that at the beginning of the race two weeks ago they were fourth, and at the present time are leading the campaign with ten thousand points.
Societes No. 169 and No. 63 ably supported their state in retaining the banner of victory this week. True to tradition, Ohio has always been proud of the fact that they have, because of their aggressiveness, never taken a minor role in the affairs staged by KSKJ.
All this does not mean that the campaign success is assured, there are still six months to go to victory, and unless all entrants actively participate, we cannot hope to enroll the quota which would mean victory in this Golden Campaign.
Smaller societies need not be disheartened and lose interest by feeling that in comparison with the bigger societies their possibilities are limited. Lincoln's chances were limited, but "mighty oaks from little grow" was aptly ap-

COMPILED BY JOSEPH Z ALAR Supreme Sicratiry
Prior to the XII. con ven- From the above letter it is
tion held August 1914 in Milwaukee there was much discussion and a host of proposals that the KSKJ organize
a Children's Department.
It was the wish of many members and delegates that a department be instituted into which children would be admitted. As the proposed department was intended for children only it was proposed that the new branch be called the Children's Department. Later when the plan was adopted and approved the department was named Juvenile Department.
The proposal that a department be organized for the children was noteworthy and commendable.
The proposed new department into which only children would be admitted was seen as a step forward in the progress of the Union. Not only would it be a favorable move for the organization as a whole, but it would also give parents an opportunity for protection and needed benefit in times of emergency.
The idea was wonderful, but there was the question of the legality of organizing such a department, and whether or not the State Insurance Department would approve the organization. One of the prime questions, which incidentally retarded organization, was whether the Insurance Department would permit acceptance of members under the age of 16 years. It was the latter questions that required solution before earnest work could be atempted.
Under the above conditions I wrote tO the State Insurance Department in Springfield, 111., July 20, 1914. In the
evident that the superintendent of the Insurance Department rejected the proposal to organize a children's department and also notified that if such a resolution would be adopted at the convention it would not be approved by the

Insurance Department, such rejection being forced because the insurance law did not permit acceptance of members under the age of 16 years.
Taking into consideration the wish of the membership and the opinion of the state insurance department, I included the following explanation in my report to the delegates at the Twelfth Convention :

The information received from the Insurance Department prompted me to advise in my report at the XII. convention that all action on the proposed organization of a children's department be dropped.
The suggestion and proposal for a children's department consequently fell into a dormant stage. However, since
I noticed from the number of proposals made by various societies and members who were convinced that a children's department in our Union would mean great progress, I renewed my request for more information from the Insurance Department. Again I was informed by the Insurance Superintendent that it was not legal to admit children into the Union.

On the basis of opinion expressed by so many soieties, I presented to the Supreme Board in session January 14, 1916, a proposal and suggestion that a children's department be organized. The proposal, included in the, minutes of the meeting, was published in the Glasilo January 26, 1916, No. 3 and reads:
"Supreme Secretary reports that he proposed the organization of a children's 'department in an official notice published in No. 39 of the official organ. He informs that the official notice has resulted in a response from 30 subsidiary societies favoring the proposal. The Supreme Secretary proposes that the Supreme Board consider the wish of the membership and take steps so that a children's department be organized at the earliest possible time, such department to give parents the opportunity to insure their children at reasonable rates."

In issue No. 7 of the Glasilo, published February 23, 1916, an editorial from the pen of Ivan Zupan, editor, included the following:
AGITATE FOR THE ORGANIZATION OF A CHILDREN'S DEPARTMENT
Almost two months have the Supreme regular semi-annual meeting adopted an important proposal relative to the organization of children's department in our Union. The proposal was commented and discussed prior to the meeting in communications to the official organ.
To date 31 societies have accepted the proposal for the organization of a children's department. They are societies Nos. 63, 23, 74, 123, 88, 2, 5, 21, 1, 103, 29, 153, 50, 136, 79, 59, 43, 75, 78, 49, 60, 120, 38, 47, 154, 115, 83, 126, 53, 95 and 132. There remain 100 societies that have not as yet voiced their opinion. The number of societies for the proposal compose one-fourth of the number of societies representing a membership of 3884, as of December 31, 1915.
It is strange that such a large number of societies have not as yet voiced their opinion, for or against the proposal. It would be proper that the Supreme Office, or the official organ for notification.
opinion from all the societies in order that the proposal may be solved.
According to the proposal adopted by the Supreme Board at its January meeting, the proposed children's department is to take form when 300 candidates file application for admission. The age of the candidate is to be between 1 and 16 years. The monthly assessments for each child, regardless of age, is to be 15 cents, registration fee 50 cents, and motruary benefit or insurance $100.00 at time of death of child. The child need not submit to a physical examination. Mortuary benefit, in the event of death, would be payable to the parents of a child who was a member for three months or more. When the child would attain the age of 16 years, he would be accepted into the Adult Department without paying initiation fee. The Union would keep a set of books for the proposed department, and all funds and business of the department would be segregated from the Union proper. Such an arrangement is

Frank Opek*
On the 20th anniversary of the Juvenile Department I am duty bound to congratulate my colleague the Supreme Secretary, Mr. Joseph Žalar for the work ne accomplished twenty years ago in the interest of the welfare of the Union.
Just as the pioneers deemed it necessary tg organize the people of Slovenian nationality in this country, so did , our Brother Supreme Secretary sense the need for organizing youth under the banner of the KSKJ. The work in organizing was difficult and was hindered by opposition from various sources, yet Brother Zalar continued undaunted and the Juvenile Department was organized June 1, 1916. For this, Brother Zalar is entitled to the highest commendation.
The importance of the Juvenile Department is known to every member. It is also known that without the Juvenile Department the Union could not progress.
I congratulate all parents who have their children enrolled in the Juvenile Department, for they know that they and their children are benefitting by this important branch. The Juvenile Department is the preparatory branch from which the Adult Department receives its new members. All our progress is guaged by the progress of the Juvenile Department.
The KSKJ Golden Booster Campaign is now in full swing under the capable guidance of active bosters. Without a doubt these boosters will continue until their respective quotas are attained.	. #
At this time I appeal to all subordinate society officials and the membership at large to co-operate in the current campaign for new juvenile members. The more children we will enroll in the Juvenile Department, the stronger will the KSKJ be, for the future of the Union is in its youth.

The Department at present in on a sound basis. The officials of the Union who organized it, however, wish to carry the branch to greater heights, and that by means of the current KSKJ Golden Booster Campaign.
Co-operation and hard work made the Juvenile Department a reality; brought it to its present standard, and will bring it to the goal set by the leaders.
Campaign managers! The KSKJ has marched! It is marching now! It must continue to March! — And it will, if you lead the parade!

exists among our modern intelligent peoples a very unintelligent tendency to look upon a large family as an oddity and to label their producers z". slightly unbalanced. Being a member of such an oddity, I' have had quite an opportunity of observing the furor it causes. Chief among my memories of childhood days is that of being lined up with the rest of the children for the benefit of some curious visitor, usually a dir-tant relative or solicitous church worker. We would then listen patiently to a speech something like this:
"My, my! Six girls and one boy. Be careful you don't spoil him (this with playful wag of the finger). My, what a joy and comfort they must be to their mothers. Such a happy family." About this time one of us would wiggle an ear or sneeze loudly. Thereupon followed an avalanche of advice as to the objections—intellectual, moral, physical, and spiritual—to such a large family. With a self-satisfied smile the visitor would depart, privately believing our home to be a cross between a foreign settlfement-house and the Methodist orphanage. I know they pictured Mother eternally scrubbing the floor or pushing a strand of graying hair from her brow while she stirred the cornmeal mush for her brood of thoughtless young ones. They must have, else why would they have given Mother all the left-over at church suppers, saying, "Take it home to the children," evidently considering us just a starving mass of humanity with
noses. And they were seemingly intelligent people who & connected large families with slovenly, haphazard ways.
In spite of all ftiis unpleasantness from the "rabble," we led fairly respectable and certainly happy lives. None of U3 could be mistaken for Garbo, even at a distance (except perhaps for the feet), but there is among us. We all experienced not a knock-knee or a cross-eye chicken-pox and measles, but there has never been any glaring evidence of insanity or mental deficiency. Many and dire were the results predicted for us—"In such a large family naturally there come some mental or physical defects somewhere"—and the like.
One of the compensations of such an existence is the fun we have together. Not being overly wealthy, we provided our own entertainment most of the time. We fashioned a curtain on one side of our kitchen and enacted such stories as "Robin Hood," "Moses in the Bul^ rushes," "The Christmas Story" and even the "Good Samaritan." I dofi't know, maybe it's something about my face, but
I always had the misfortune of being the sheep in the manger scene and the donkey for the good Samaritan.
We always had enough participants for any game, enough pupils to play school, or enough children to play house. How well I remember being the fountain of youth holding aloft a sieve through which my younger sister poured imaginary water. The unpleasant (Continued on pase 0)
The enlargement of this week's Glasilo is intended to mark the 20th anniversary of the Juvenile Department. It is fitting that members pause to reflect and take stock of this important branch of *he Union.
Twenty years ago, the department was nothing more than an experiment proposed and supported by members to whom the KSKJ was a vital interest.
Today the department functions on a scientific basis with a membership of 11,388 assets of $168,372.38 and a solvency rating of 273.51%.
On this anniversary occasion the good men and women, fathers and mothers who-twenty years ago organized the Juvenile Department and in subsequent years withstood the discomfitures of rearing the Union's "baby," may now look back with satisfaction at their wonderful work. Not only can they look to the past and marvel
the present status of the Department, but they can also look to the future in anticipation of greater success.
At this time it is fitting to congratulate one who played the dominant role in the organization of the Juvenile Department. He is Supreme Secretary Joseph Žalar, who in his 28 years of service to the Union, set up a monument which he and the KSKJ membership can cherish with pride.
The young men and women of today will do well to pause in reflection that their parents were concerned about their future and the future of the Union a full twenty years ago. These same young men and women, on the threshhold of assuming responsibilities, can reciprocate by appreciating the work of their parents, by considering the Union as a part of their legacy, and by enlisting their efforts in seeing to it that their children will also benefit by the work the KSKJ pioneers of the Juvenile Department.
LONG LIVE KSKJ!

(Reprinted by request from. Our Page, Feb. 16, 1932). Is there a KSKJ Booster club in your town? Is there any ambitious movement toward organizing one? Ask yourself these questions and try to face the facts.
If' you are in a KSKJ locality where the Kay Jay spirit is gaining momentum rapidly, you are fortunate! We can classify you in a category that is going to taste and relish the delights of real fraternal and social good-fellowship. We can wager that you are going to experience many blissful and happy moments, enjoy many more delightful associations, and meet genuine, wholesome and cleancut Slovenian boys and girls before another year passes on.
If you are in the less fortunate group, where the Kay Jay spirit is still in a dormant and apathetic state, you can blame yourself! All you need to start the ball rolling is this: A little spunk, a bit of initiative, and an ounce of ambition. Don't be a deadhead ! Wake up your lodge, show them you mean business!

about it. Watch how everyone will co-operate with you and appreciate your efforts. It's the real thing! .
"The Supreme Board of the KSKJ is ready to sponsor any progressive movement that may be inaugurated for the interest and improvement of j our KSKJ youth." Isn't thatj announcement sufficient indi- J cation that our Supreme Board and the KSKJ membership are willing to endow us with their wholehearted support? Doesn't it mean that we, of the younger generation have finally received official recognition? How are we going to avail ourselves of this opportunity? Are we going to stifle a yawn, and lethargically sit back and twiddle our thumbs? No sir! We are going to joi$ this Kay Jay Booster campaign, work hard and then relish the fruits of our labors.
Do you know that this Kay Jay booster club idea is tried and true! It has undergone its transitional period and has emerged as a successful experiment. In the course of the past few years, it was subjected to very close KSKJ scrutiny, and it has proven itself as a logical means toward injecting new life and' new hope into our great union.
Many of us have been wondering when the newly organized Athletic Board would begin to function, and no doubt, we have had our misgivings. But in truth, if we pondered a bit more deeply, we would have discovered what a gigantic task confronts this executive group. We would have discerned how uterly futile it would be tc exploit a comparatively undeveloped field and expect satisfactory results in a short space of time. We must real-

ize that it cannot do creditable work where there is no definite field of operation. The future lies, in systematic organization. We, of the younger generation who form the nucleus of that program must organize ourselves into respective athletic groups, and create ample opportunity for the board to fulfill its duties.
The gist of what the Kay Jay program really proposes is this: We are desirous to have each KSKJ locality represented by at least one booster club unit, and where-ever possible to include all KSKJ lodges in the immediate vicinity. We have no doubt that it would promote a better fraternal and social spirit among our lodges, and also hasten and simplify the introduction of competitive sports in our Jednota. We are petitioning the co-operation of everyone, for it is for our own mutual benefit.
Is your booster club's name on the honor roll? The movement is on, are you with us? If so, then we can burst fortfi in true Kay Jay style and say O'Kay KSKJ!

Every family in a civilized nation has the custom of extending congratulations and well-wishes to the members of the family on occasions of birthdays and other accomplishments. How happy the mother is when she sees the merriment in the family circle and accepts congratulations and gifts from her children on her birthday. Indeed, it is an' impressive sight, this manifestation of appreciation to a mother on the part of the children.
On this occasion of the twentieth anniversary of the Juvnile Department we may compare a happy family to the KSKJ. — Our Mother, the KSKJ, knew from day to day, that she was growing older, and that the principles of the Union could not be realized without the Juvenile Department. It was the Juvenile Department that came to her aid and offered her consolation for the past twenty years.
Not one of us would not rejoice with the KSKJ today while appraising its great work and its aim for permanent progress!
The Juvenile Department came to the Union's aid twenty years ago with intentions of helping and of giving the organization new blood and new life. What an important move in the history of the organization!
Every one of us must willingly or with reservation admit that we are indebted to our celebrant — the Juvenile Department — for the progress made by the KSKJ. It is a progress , made by an organization distributing untold benefits in the i fraternal field and attaining a reputable status — nearly four ! million dollars in assets, a solvency of 117.64% and a member-| ship cf 35,000.
At the outset of any venture there is much opposition and ' hardship. Such was also the case when the Juvenile Department was organized. However, we may be consoled that we had men whose convictions overpowered the opposition and whose foresight saw in the Juvenile Department the seed of progress. Those convictions are confirmed today.
We may be happy today in our reminiscence when tfe see in glowing terms the benefits dispensed by the Juvenile Department and its aid to the Union in climbing to heights in the fraternal field.
Among the jubilant today, Supreme Secretary Brother Joseph Zalar may be joyous, for it was he who defied opposition, held firmly to convictions and persevered in his effort to organize the Department. Congratulations, Brother Zalar. You may be proud of your work!
Tc the members who aided Brother Zalar we can show our appreciation by uniting in effort to co-operate in the current jubilee campaign. Let our motto be: "Twenty-thousand members for the 20th anniversary!"
Long live the KSKJ! Long live the Juvenile Department and may it continue to progress so that it will always be the pride of the Slovenian nationality in America.

UMBRELLAS AND RAIN
Mary Jerman
By Frances Jancer
Andrew Pembrooke and his wife Nancy lived on the outskirts of Washburn, a small town in midwestern Illinois. They were a thriving and well-to-do family, but never showed their superiority to others, in fact lived as any other commonplace individual did.
As a family, they, along with their five children, got along with the rest of the neighbors remarkably well, despite the fact that Mrs. Nancy Pem-brcoke was known as a shrew. This fact did not affect the neighbors as much as it did Andrew, himself. She dominated her husband as none of the other neighbors did theirs, and Andrew meekly stood by taking it all in. She loved to torment him about his deficiencies, if he had any, if he didn't he was made the butt of every happening in the household.
On this particular morning the sun had come beautifully
from behind the heavy clouds which had ominously portended rain in torrents. The black clouds had hovered over the city for so many hours that all had thought it was going to be a wet day.
"Andrew Pembrooke," began Nancy, as usual, "How many times have I told you to get our umbrellas repaired. You know that every one of them are unfit to use in a downpour."
"Nancy, dear," murmured Andrew, "I always forget. I have meant to take them with me time and again."
"Forget!" groaned Nancy. "As long as I can remember you have always forgotten. I forgot this and I forgot that—"
Andrew hid his face behind the morning newspaper in an attempt to drown the sermon, which he knew was, inevitably, coming. He made up his mind to take them down this morn-

.HISTORY OF JUVENILE DEPARTMENT
CAMPAIGN MANAGER SOCIETY NO. 69
(Oonttimwl from pact 2) tion m did England recently. Passports are issued in a few cases only.
This year can be considered as one of the most important in the history of our Union, if the proposal to organize a children's department is carried out. With the institution of such a department our Union would have a healthy stock of youth to form a group of prospective members for the Adult Department. Brothers and sisters, we must not miss this, opportunity! The plans for the organization r.r: commendable. Let us unite in this move so that by July 1 of this year the proposed department can start functioning.
Taking as an example what can be done with a children's department, let us consider that the 12,300 members represent about 2000 families. The average number of children in a family, let us say, is three. With all these children enrolled in the new department, 6000 children would be insured the first year. Though the average may be altefed by cases where there are no children in the family, it would be enhanced by cases where there are 6, 8 and more children in the family.
It is said that our members have their children in-
his own organisation, primarily because of the benefit to himself and to his own organization.
Societies who have to date favored the move for the organization of a children's department are urged to canvas
the members at the monthly meetings and compile th3 number of prospective child members so that the new department can start functioning by July 1 of this year. The parents are requested to give the names of the children they intend to insure to the secretary who in turn will forward the list to the Supreme Secretary.
Up to this point in the preparations there was no manifest opposition to the proposed new department. Friends of the new plan acepted ..he proposal of the Supreme Board with enthusiasm. Subsidiary societies in session at monthly meetings favored the move and made plans to cooperate with the Board.
As every other commendable move has its friends and enemies, so did the organization of a children's department in our Union meet with opposition. While discussion was focused mainly in the columns of the official organ, opponents of the plan were sedate t with the belief that the propo-sured with other insurance saj wouid remain in the ether-companies and pay a fairly reaim and never take high assessment rate and have|form However, as plans prog-claim to mortuary benefit ressed> and the new depart-

We have on hand a certificate issued by a known insurance company. The certificate is issued for a child four years of age. After the certificate is in force for three
ment began to take on form, the objectors voiced their opinions, including their belief that a children's department was not necessary, and that the move was "Joe Zalar's invention" to increase the size of
months, the limited claim is the organization and thereby $20; between 3 and 6 moths, be entitled to a larger salary. $26; between 6 and 9 months,
The number of objectors, however, was small. Their objections were groundless, and consequently were not considered. Preparations were continued and followed by the official announcement in issue No. 12 of Glasilo, published March 29, 1916:
"There has been much discussion and opinion expressed on the proposed organization of a children's department in our Union. From all directions pleas for the organization of such a department
$28; between 9 months and 1 year, $28; between 1 and 6 years, $28; between 6 and 15 years, $56; 15 to 20 years, $84; after the 20th birthday, $112. The assessment for the above amoufits is 10 cents a week, totaling $5.20 per year. For example, if a child was 15 years insured as above dies, the certificate holder receives $56. If the child was entered when he was four, the payments in the 11 years amounted to $57.20, or $1.20 more than was paid.
The plan for our children's have been presented to the
department calls for equal assessment for each member, regardless of age; 15 cents per moth, totaling $1.80 for a year; $29.80 for 11 years, a saving of $27.40 on assessments, and a claim of $100.00 mortuary benefit upon the death of a child, after the child has been a member for three months. Isn't the plan worthwhile?
It is hoped that every house manager or head of the family who is a member of the KSKJ will rather support
Supreme Board. The Supreme Board, in session January of this year, after careful deliberation decided that such a department be organized at the earliest possible time. I consider it my duty to inform members who are interested in the movement with the following suggestion and explanation :
Cards were sent by the Supreme Office to all subsidiary societies of the KSKJ. These cards are to be considered as applications for admission.
WILL READ FIRST MASS
rev, fathers frank and joseph smerke
Joseph Gornik
One side of the card is to be filled by the parents according to directions. Though children will not be obliged to submit to a physical examination, officers of -the subsidiary society are urged to follow the directions listed on the application card. The statements of the parents are to be authenticated by the signature of the father and mother of the child. The signatures, as well as the statement of health, is to be approved by the society officials. The society secretary is to affix his signature on the place desig nated.
The children's department will start functioning when 300 children are enrolled.
Children between the ages of 1 and 16 years whose parents are members of the K. S. K. J. will be admitted. •
The registration or initiation fee shall be 50 cents for one child. The monthly assessment shall be 15 cents.
A 10 cent fee for the dues book will be charged to each member. ^. •.« r
The mortuary benefit for a child shall be $100.00.
In addition to the registra-, tion fee, the assessment for the month in which the member is admitted, is due at time of admittance.
Assessments shall be payable before the 24th day of the month, payment to be made to the society secretary, all such collections to be forwarded to the supreme secretary before the last day in the month.
Children whose assessment is not paid before the 24th day of the month shall be expelled. With expulsion the child loses all rights to insurance. There is no suspension in the children's department. Re-in-statement following expulsion may be made only after the society board confirms the health of the child and recom-rftends admission. In all such cases all assessments from the time of expulsion to the time of re-instatement must be paid.
The children's department is not linked with the insurance plan of the Adult Department. In the event that the mortuary fund of the children's department is not large enough to meet the claims on hand, a special assessment shall be levied.
No child who has not been a member for three months (90 days) is entitled to mortuary benefit.
In the event of death of a child-member notification must be served to the society secretary. The secretary in turn notifies the president of the society and another representative and all three attest proof of death. When the do--iety board is satisfied with he proof of death, It is to notify the supreme office, making statement of proof and
that the child was a member of\the children's department. The society board is to include with its notification the death certificate attested by a physician or the coroner, undertaker, and if possible by the priest who officiated at the burial rites. The assessment book and all other relevant papers requested by the supreme office must be forwarded at that time.
Upon attaining the age of 16 years a member of the children's department shall enroll in the Adult Department of the KSKJ, and at the same time be entitled to all privileges, rights and duties outlined in the By-laws of the organization.
The mortuary benefit is payable only to the child's father or mother; in the case of an orphan, to the legal guardian; in the latter case proof that the guardian is the legal guardian appointed by the court must be presented.
The above in essence forms the regulations for the new department. As noted a big responsibility is placed on the officials of the subsidiary societies. The Supreme Board places its trust in the subsidiary officials. I am convinced that after the department will be well established, the additional work now at hand will be compensated with the satisfaction of knowing that the KSKJ has made a step forward.
The Rev. Anton Berk, member of KSKJ, commented with an article in the March 9 issue of Sloga. The Rev. Father emphasizes the importance of a children's department in the Union. The future of the KSKJ lies in the supply of recruits, says the Father, and the children's department will guarantee the supply.
In my first article relative to the children's department published last year, I emphasized that we can no longer depend on immigration for new members. To compensate for the loss of this source of membership, we must turn to
CAMPAIGN MANAGER SOCIETY NO. 79
another field—that of recruiting children. We need young blood in the organization if we want our organization to be long-lived.
I am certain that many fathers and mothers have children insured with an insurance company. Assessments are high, and they do not know what amount will be paid in the event of death of the son or daughter, due to the various types of laws and regulations governing them. If such organizations can find funds to pay high-salaried men, why can't our organization that has funds to aid widows and orphans support a children's department? Very easily! Every father and mother who will have his child enrolled in the children's department will know how much is being paid, to whom, and what benefit will be derived.
Payments of assessments can easily be made at the same time that the father or mother make payment of their own ! assessments. This arrangement of having the entire fam-lily enrolled as members of the KSKJ will gradually lead the Union to be a topic of discussion in the family.circle. This will acquaint the child with the organization at an early date and will make him look forward to the day when he will be eligible to join the Adult Department. With this plan we will be assured of many young members, the progress of the Union and the adherence to its Catholic principles, as well as a pride in our national heritage when many of us will no longer be living.
To action, brothers and sisters! The time is opportune! The sooner you enroll your children, the sooner will the children's department take actual form.
The above suggestion and plan is recommended to all subsidiary officers, and they arc requested to abide to the suggestions in recruiting new members. When the number of candidates will be 300, official notice will be made in the Glasilo. All fees, assessments and applications are to be sent to the Supreme Office.
Society officials are requested to retain all fees and collections, until request for the same is made by the Supreme Office.
You have my wish for God's blessing in this latest venture. Fraternally yours,
JOSEPH ZALAR, - Supreme Secretary. Joliet, 111., Marcn 23, 1916.
Following the above another official announcement was published in the' April 19, XUIS issue of Glasilo.
The supreme secretary no-t'ficd the members the procedure to be followed in enrolling new members. The rules and regulations published in the March 29, 1916 issue of the off.cial organ Glasilo are to be followed. In addition society secretaries were not i make any collections until no-
Ignatius Trunkle Sr.
tified by the Supreme Office.
The notice emphasized anew the importance of a children'* department, and the benefit to be derived by the parents and the Union. Above all, parents would know what, to whom and for what they are paying assessments for their children.
Not only will the children be insured in the KSKJ, but membership will mean that 'the parents have shown the ; right road to their children, the notice includes. Children will be inspired with the fraternal spirit at an early age. Parents should avail themselves of the opportunity, and in future years they will hear their children say, "My dear parents enrolled me as a child in thq children's department of the KSKJ for the purpose of encouraging me to follow its principles. Since my parents followed the motto, "All for Faith, Home and Country," I, too, intend to follow in their footsteps and continue the noble work they started."
In an appeal to the membership at large the supreme secretary pointed out the benefits of the KSKJ in the April 119, 1916 issue of Glasilo. In j addition to benefits derived by members in the Adult Department, the announcement included the following:
"The Union intends to insure children between the ages of 1 and 16 years, for the |small monthly assessment of 15 cents, entitling the parents to $100.00 mortuary benefit in the event of the death of the child. Application cards have been sent to all subsidiary societies, and as soon as 300 candidates file application, the children's department will be inaugurated."
"What else can we wish for? Where can one find a better organization than the KSKJ to insure oneself and his children? Do not miss this opportunity! Let us not put off till tomorrow what we can do today!"	i
In the meantime so many applications were received for membership in the children's department by the Supreme Office that it was assured that the department would start
Joeeph M. Sesek
functioning June 1. Confirmation of the belief was published in an official announcement May 17, 1916.
In response to the announcements a sufficient number of candidates were enrolled and the children's department became a reality. Official announcement of the institution of the children's department was made May 19, 1916, and* secretaries were instructed to collect assessments. The department took on life!
By June 21, 1916, twenty-one days after the institution of the hildren's department, the Supreme Secretary's announcement stated that 1100 children had been enrolled. The response was remarkable, a creditable showing on the part of parents and the subsidiary officials.
All members enrolled June 1916 were considered the charter members of the department, the total being 1313 from 65 societies. The collection for the first month, June 1916, was $963.20.
The children's department was organized June 1, 1916. It was founded and based on the opinion of the Hon. Rufus M. Potts. However, under the arrangements the department was considered as a social unit cf the organization.
It was not un.il October 17, 1916 that the State Insurance Department ruled that fraternal orgr.nks uiom were permitted to a'«.nit children as members of the Union. Up to that time r c z ? ri m e ndations were repeatedly made by officials of the Illinois Fraternal Congress and the National Fraternal Congress.

"What Brother Zalar and the members accomplished twenty years ago now bears the stamp of success, but it :'s a success that marches on.*'
ft* m f. omn
Today the KSKJ, known as the Mother of our people, celebrates in a formal way one of its many achievements — the attainment of twenty years of beneficial service through its child, the Juvenile Department.
The rearing of a child, as every mother knows, entails many hardships and worries, but sacrifice is willingly made when the results bring with them compensation in satisfaction.
It is with satisfaction that the KSKJ,*its officers and members can look back to the path of success traversed by the Juvenile Department. Today the hardships and obstacles met in its growing years may be minimized by the status of the Department.
The organization of the Department was not an easy matter. It was realized only by true fraternal co-operation guided by men and women to whom the KSKJ was and iS an ideal. To one in particular, Supreme Secretary, Brother Joseph Zalar, the KSKJ is greatly indebted for his untiring efforts in organizing the Department. The good fathers and mothers who realized the benefit of a Juvenile Department to themselves, their children and the Union, congratulations and commendations are also extended.
% A twentieth anniversary is only a time for recollection. — What Brother Zalar and the members accomplished twenty years ago now bears the stamp of success, but it is a success that marches on. In humble aknowledgement I offer my congratulations, congratulations that will be offered by future generations that arc destined to profit by this wonderful work.

ing, before the next rainfall.
So, after his breakfast, he proceeded to collect all the umbrellas in the house, eight in all, and took them to old Sol Hanlon on his way to the shop that morning.
Old Sol was very short of business that year, but he didn't care to have the townsfolk know about it. So when Andrew Pembrooke came in he failed to show that he was glad to get the business, instead made believe that he had a lot to do.
"Mr. Pembrooke, what you mean," growled old Sol, "bringing me so much work all at one time? I no be able to get done till next week. Lots of work."
"That's perfectly all right," answered Mr. Pembrooke. "The only thing is get them repaired so that my wife will not have to tell me about them again."
"Thank you, Mr. Pembrooke," returned old SoL "I will fix them all right. You call for them Monday evening. All right?"
Content that part of his mission was completed, Andrew led his steps to the shop where he spent eight hours of every day, earning the bread and butter for his household.
On the other hand, Nancy-had made up her mind that she was going to do something about the umbrellas that had been laying around for such a long time. After Andrew had

John Kucic
left for his work she decided to collect the rain protectors to take them to the repair shop. In this way she could gloat over the fact that she was the thoughtful one. Search as she might, but no umbrellas could be found. Determined to let it go until the next rainfall when they would be in big demand, Nancy let the incident pass, something she didn't do very often. •
Monday proved to be a Jonah day for Andrew Pembrooke. Although the black clouds were hovering early in the morning, it did not begin to rain until Andrew was well on his way to work, before the bus stopped in front of his shop. Before getting off he absent-mindedly reached for the umbrella in the seat beside him, but to be taken aback by the lady companion to the umbrella, with,
"I beg your pardon, sir. But this is my umbrella." j
After due apologies, Pembrooke, somewhat chagrined^ got off the bus.
A Jonah day it surely was. Everything seemed to go wrong for him and he could hardly wait until quitting time, when he would run over' to old Sol's for the umbrellas and go home to his wife in his glory—his glory for having been able to remember.
Upon getting on the Washburn bus, who should he find glaring at him but his lady friend of the morning episode. Looking at the eight umbrellas under his arm she remarked.
"You have had a good day, sir."
But that wasn't all. When Andrew arrived home with the nuch abused umbrellas he was met by his wife, who looked at lim with a hostile expression.
"Andrew!" she shrieked, "you don't mean that you went and bought some new umbrellas?"
"Why, no, honey," answered Andrew. "These are the old ones I had repaired."
"For pity sakes," fumed Vancy. - "I couldn't find the old so I went and bought a 'ew new ones, being as it rained today. Why didn't you say something?"

To prove this wasn't just an accident we have each resolved to present the world with at least six young hopefuls apiece, mong whom we hope to see— well, if not a president, at least an ambassador.

By Frances Janccr
The 20th anniversary of the juvenile department of our KSKJ makes one think of the KSKJ, yesterdays, days, and no doubt all the bright and promising tomorrows.
Whether we gaze through youthful eyes at a future whose vistas seem to stretch out gloriously before us, or whether looking through the eyes of age, our condition, wherever dispersed, calls forth a battle, a battle to fight for the maintenance and future of the KSKJ.
How they call, and call, and call. The juvenile campaign and its active boosters are calling for the young seed of our great future. What then shall they emblazon upon the banner that shall be carried on into a next generation by our juveniles?
One little seed may hold within its tiny compass the loveliness of a lily—the stigmata of the KSKJ in one little juvenile—but both need to burst and grow, burgeon and bloom. To teach the juveniles to lead themselves away from self and to comradeship—fra-ternalism—that is to be the policy of the present-day boosters.
"B/ their fruits ye shall know them." The habit of thinking that an organization derives its character from the people who are a part of it, makes one think, more or less, of the tremendous influence the character of our members and officers will have on our juveniles twenty years from now, when they shall be ready to hold the reins of the organization.
Grant that, as friends of our youth, the strong citadel, our KSKJ, which has been built upon high aims by our forefathers, shall always stand as a shining example of those who founded this organization for our safeguard and inspiration

—that it may be passed on to our juveniles with the impression firmly implanted in their minds, that they are to honor, cherish and promote fraternal-ism as did their predecessors. That they should always keep the KSKJ fraternal banner waving on high, and be able with clear conscience to pass into the hands of the third generation that same fraternal spirit, untarnished, as it was handed to them.

Enclosed find ruling relative to Whole - Family Protection, which is self - explanatory.
Please forward me marked copy of your official organ containing an account of this ruling when issued. The National Fraternal Congress will submit a plan to be uniformly followed in granting this protection.
Kindly aknowledge receipt. Yours very respectfully,
RUFUS M. POTTS, Insurance Superintendent.
some time the National Fraternal Congress has been agitating the question of whole - family insurance,especially since the| industrial life insurance companies began writing group insurance.
"A committee of the fraternal beneficiary organizations operating in Illinois was appointed to formulate plans upon which minors are to be accepted as members. Tfhis committee will report at a meeting to be held November 16. The national Fraternal Congress has submitted to a subcommittee of the national convention of Insurance commissioners the draft off a tentative bill granting fraternal orders the right to issue whole-family insurance."
The article just quoted appeared in the news columns of the Chicago Herald, Wednesday, October 18, 1916. It is a simple account of one of the most successful fraternal meetings ever held in any State. The Illinois fraternalists were out in full force. The meeting was held at the Hotel Sherman, a place already famous and historic in the annals of the fraternal societies.
The entire fraternal system is indebted to the Insurance Superintendent of Illinois for this great forward step in extending and enlarging this system's scope of activity and usefulness. In making his new ruling, Mr. Potts not only had to reverse the rule that has up to the present time prevailed in the Insurance Department of Illinois relative to the minimum age of entrants into fraternal societies, but he had to gO far into a new field and establish a ruling which other States seem reluctant or hesitant to adopt. To do this in the face of present conditions required intelligence and courage of the highest order. That Superintendent Potts is abudantly endowed with these high qualities has been demonstrated on more than one occasion. The people of the great State of Illinois are fortunate in having such a man as supervisor of their insurance affairs. The Governor of the State is to be highly commended in making the choice of such a man for Insurance Superintendent. Few men are fortunate enough to be endowed with the rare good judgement to pick men well fitted for the exercise of public duties.
It will be a matter of interest to all fraternal managers and the members of the societies to know exactly what the new ruling is. We therefore, incorpo-

STATE OF ILLINOIS INSURANCE DEPARTMENT SPRINGFIELD, ILLINOIS. RULING
In the matter of the hearing upon the question of the right of fraternal societies licensed and authorized to do business in the State of Illinois to grant whole family protection.
The Supreme Court of the State of Illinois, in the case of Chicago Mutual Life Indemnity Association et al. vs. Hunt, Attorney General, 127 111., 257, had before it every substantial J question and objection urged against the acceptance of minors bv mutual benefit societies, and . liscussecf and passed upon each i question, holding that such be-i neficiary societies may accept ; minors as members and grant n3urance thereto, making no distinction between the right of beneficial membership of minors and that of adults, and that the acceptance of such minors was not in violation of the statute, or the policy of the laws of this State, in relation to such matters.
We received the notice from the Hon. Rufus M. Potts with joy, for it was a decision that permitted us to accept. children as members of the Union. With the decision the Insurance Superintendent had shown that he was a man of foresight and that his aim was to aid the progress of frater nal organizations.
In a short time 1700 members were enrolled indicating that the membership was in favor of the children's department. The department following the decision of the Insurance Department was no longer an independent branch of the Union, but it was a subsi diary unit.
Rules arid regulations for the children's departments were, proposed at the National Insurance Commissioners Convention held Dec. 13, 1916 in New York. The body proposed the age limit, assessment rate, and that applicants be examined before admittance. These proposals were then adopted by the various State Insurance Departments by direction of the legislatures. At that time the name "children's" was changed to "juv enile" department.
With the passage of laws regulating the juvenile departments came a change in the Union's new department. It will be remembered that our juvenile department functioned according to the rules set by the KSKJ board. In order to conform with the laws, I made several proposals at the Jan. 21, 1920 meeting of the Supreme Board. That our juvenile department will meet the requirements each applicant must be examined by a physician, the assessment rate must be based on the "Standard Industrial Mortality Table, or The English Life Table No. 6, mortuary benefits must be based on the age of the child. (See table, this issue, Slovenian Section, Page 5.V
According to the benefit rate in force at that time the payments were too high in some cases, in others too low. The regulations also called for annual statement ^nd a valuation report. As action wa# requested at an early date by the Insurance Department, the Supreme Board was asked to vote on the proposals. With the permission of President Jerman, the actuar was contacted and the necessary ta-
.The Slovenians are one of the smallest nationalistic groups in Europe. Slightly over one million in number, they constitute about one-tenth of the population of Jugoslavia and are one of the three main groups comprising it, the other two* being the Serbs and * the Croats.

thusiastic authorities will youch for this. There is a world of grandeur in its Julian Alps, its snow-capped Karavankas, their sides all covered with verdant forests most carefully preserved. Slovenia's many deep, crystal clear dreamy lakes, sunny valleys sprinkled with quaint lovely villages, countless little white churches perched on many hilltops, all serve to make up a positively perfect canvas of co-ordinate beauty. Slovenia is as one well-kept park. Flowers everywhere. Its wealth is not in the lavishness of the world, but in the sublime euphony of nature. It is a land of striking contrasts, old in history and legend, yet so long shut away from travelers that its beauties are fresh and new, uncontamlnated by commercialism and unspoiled by familiarity.

who fell in love with the hospitable Slovenians and their country. He gave them all possible liberties and considerations. He encouraged and helped them. For the first time the Slovenians had free rein to develop their culture. Schools and other centers of education and culture were built. Under the kindly guiding hand of Marmont, Slovenia flourished and was happy.
This state of affairs was not destined to remain for long, a mere forty years; for in 1847 the Slovenians again fell under the control of the Austrians and continued to remain Austrian subjects until after the World War. The Slovenians then became a part of the kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, now known as the kingdom of Jugoslavia. And for the first time they actually had some say in their government.
hardy race possessing a high standard of self-respect, taking pride in doing even little things well.

The Slovenians have lived under varied foreign aggression and have tasted much of the dregs of wars. From the very beginning they fell under the domination of the neighboring Hungarian chieftains. In 750 the land was conquered by the Bavarians, who held sway until the nintK century, when the country was overrun by a large host of wild, nomadic Bulgarians. These, however, were driven out by the Germans in 955. In 962 Slovenian provinces were declared a part of the newly formed Holy Roman State of Germany. Then followed three centuries of turbulent times when one king after another ruled. Finally the German lords elected Rudolph of Hapsburg as king. Following almost a century of comparative peace, the country was conquered by Napoleon Bonaparte and the Slovenian province was turned over to Marshal Marmont, a personal friend of Napoleon. Marmont was a generous, kindly soul
thirds of the Slovenians became a part of Jugoslavia, the others fell under Italy. . Years of foreign oppression and aggression has not taken away the Slovenians' distinct Slav characteristics and Slav individuality. They retained two outstanding characteristics, their language and their culture.
The language has undergone but little change. Their culture is essentially the same, with some slight outside influences. The Slovenians were originally pagans, but were converted en masse to Christianity by Saints Cyril and Methodius in the 10th century. The greatest majority have remained Roman Catholics ever since. Refinement and individuality is charmingly seen in their art, and what is the most outstanding example of these inherent virtues is the magnificence of their folk songs, their literature and their poetry. Singing comes natural to them. They are a happy people, laughing or singing most of their troubles away with songs. These songs are tender and' merry, never war-like.
The chief industry of Slove-
peasant. A family possessing \ *2ff acres or more of tillable land is considered rich. Of the some 150,000 peasant families the majority only own on the average of from one to five ' acres of land fit for cultivation. They must perforce make use | of every inch of this land to merely eke out a meager existence.
Culture goes hand in hand with agriculture in Slovenia. The Slovenians are prolific readers. In Slovenia the publishers need but announce., a publicatitn, there is no need for advertising. Nearly everyone, teacher, priest, peasant, merchant, student buys books or subscribes to book clubs. There are dozens of book clubs among them with members ranging from two thousand to forty thousand. There are alsc a number of juvenile book clubs. One of these distributes over 100,000 books ' yearly among the country's 21,000 school children. .
The Slovenians cannot boast of mighty kings and noble warriors or outstanding heroes. Their forte is literature. They can with'pride produce poets, prose writers, musicians, painters, architects and other men of letters that rank with the best in the world. Slovenia has given birth to a remarkably large number of gifted men. As far back as 1500 they had an outstanding musician in Petar Gallus (Petelin), a prolific composer of church music. Many Slovenians are prominently mentioned in various Encyclopedias. There is the famous mathematician, Vega. The philologists, Miklošič and Kopitar. Composers, Rihar, Sattner, Hribat, Hladnik, Benjamin and Gustav Ipavec. Of the modern composers, the better known are Emil Adamič, Anton Lajovic, Stanko Premrl, Franc Kimovec, Alojzij Mav and Matija Tome.
Tomislav Križman in graphic arts ranks with the foremost in all Europe. Whilst Josip Plečnik is a world renowned exponent of architecture, along with Max Fabian, another Sloven-
ian.
In the lists of modern artists you invariably will meet the following names: Bukovec, Grohar, Vidovic and Jama. Among the poets and writers there are: Prešeren, Gregorčič, Zupančič, Jurčič, Tavčar, Cankar, Finžgar and many others. The works of these and others are comparable to and would do credit to the works of any other nation, large or small. They are the foundation of Slovenian culture. Quite a number of the best works have been translated into other languages. Unfortunately, not many of them have, however, been translated into English.
The Slovenians are a hardy race. They are not as much concerned with abstract cosmic

nia is agriculture. Living really Problems as most of their Slav
presents an economic problem. There is a scarcit yof big industries to take up the surplus population and what industry there is, is mainly foreign-owned (chiefly French and English). Thfere is also a scarcity of soil when you consider that about three-fourths million Slovenians are peasants and that more than half of its geographic surface is either mountainous or hilly and only suitable for forestry or vineyards. It simmer^ down to the fact that only about seven acres of tillable soil befalls on each

the death benefits ranging from $25 to $1000, depending on the age of the member.
To children who joined the Adult Department upon attaining the age of 16 years, the Union paid a sum from the accrued reserve. Starting with March 1, 1934, the reserve payments to transfer members were graded. (See Slovenian Section, Page 5.)
At present the Union pays to transfer members (Juvenile to Adult Department) who insure themselves for more than $500 mortuary benefit, $2.00 for physical examination, in addition to the rešene. An additional award is paid to every intra - department transfer carrying more than $500 insurance.
In the twenty years of the Juvenile Department's existence 28J000 children were admitted. Many thousands of the number were transfered to the Adult Department. Deaths in the department numbered 444. Mortuary benefits paid by the Union amounted to $94J007J00.
The Juvenile Department was organized with 1313 members. The assets of the de-partment June 1916 were $963.20. Today the membership total is 11,388 with assets of $168,372.38. The department has a solvency rating of 273.51%.
Due to the financial status of the Juvenile Department the Supreme Board ruled that assessments in that department be suspended for the months of June and July (1936). A similar suspension was effeted August, September and October of 1933.
The organization of the Juvenile Department entailed a greht deal of work and presented many obstacles. Opposition was tense and distracted the goal of the supporters. However, today a« we have the 20-year old department, one of the prides of the Union, we forget all the encumbrances, toil and disappointments of the past.
We look with great pride and satisfaction at the amount of benefit given to the Union and parents by the Juvenile Department throughout the past 20 years.
May our Juvenile Department thrive! May it live long! May it continue to be our pride!

Chicago, 111.—Refusing to put any credence in the almost axiomatic saying that the St. Stephen nine "could blast all southpaw hurlers off the mound," St. Michaels, in ihe Midwest league opener, adroitly decided to pit against the locals a Mr. Jacobs, who twirled from the port side. As a result of their experiment, the boys from South Chicago on May 31 happily rode heme with a 8'to 3 victory under their belt.
Too much must not be said of the pitching skill of Mr. Jacobs, however, for the local boys, by contributing seven errors, greatly aided the cause of the enemy. Perhaps it was because the Windy City lads were unaccustomed to playing cn a strange field, or were merely suffering from excess nervousness that they contented themselves for the greater part of the game to juggling the ball. Whatever the reason, when the fracas was over the locals shuffled off the field, bowed in defeat.
The first hint of what was in store came in the seco"nd' inning. Henry Basco previously retired in orderly fashion the first four players. Then Zienn-ski singled to center, but Šinkovec let the ball dribble through his legs. By the time he retrieved the elusive pili, the hitter had scampered home with the first run. Then in succession followed a series of hits and a sacrifice intermingled with more ball juggling by the j locals. When the scuffle was over three runs were across the plate.

Must have strong overhand arm.
Must be active and quick, but not necessarily on feet.
Must be skillful with glove.
Must develbp shift of feet and body.
Must develop fake throws.
Mental Requirements Must be good thinker, with good memory.
Must be game and aggressive, yet cheerful.
Must acquire thorough knowledge of infield play. He is to direct almost all defensive play by team-mates.
Must call bases to which in-fielders are to throw, loudly and quickly. In order to do this, he must know fielding and throwing ability of each of his team-mates.
Must know each of his pitchers' ability.
know when pitcher is
Must know when to have pitcher bear down. ; Must learn weakness of hitter.
Must be atert for hit and cr base-stealing signals of oppenents.
Must know when to throw to bases.
! Must arrange simple, well tconccalcd signals with pitcher.
Technique I Take a good squat position for giving signals, then a good position "or receiving.
Keep body in front of ball, but do. not move about unne-
cessarily. This bothers ihe pitcher.
Shifting is acquired only by constant practice while warming up.
Keep fingers and thumb of right hand partly closed to avoid broken fingers.
Make receiving and throwing a single motion.
It helps pitcher to have the catcher catch every pitched ball.
Do not walk into diamond after each pitch. Let pitcher have ball immediately with fair speed, above his waist.
In throwing to bases, get ball away quickly. Do not "cock" arm to throw.
Throw from regular position in infield practice. Throw accurately in practice as that encourages infield and discourages opponents. Throw about waist high to second base, about a foot toward first base side, especially if second baseman is covering.
Practice throwing with the mssk and protector on. You'll find that very different from throwing without equipment on.
Back up your infielders, no matter how tired you are, or
h'ow useless it seems. -
fielding Bunts
Pick up ball with both hands. Face first base and throw underhanded to first.
Bunts on first base line, throw high inside diamond to avoid hitting runner.
Tagging Men Take with both hands. Block runner, if possible. Don't peck at runners. Roll with him unless there is another play at some other base following.
Cut Off s Cut off throws when you have no chance to make play at plate.
Catching Foul Flies Relax.
Do not cramp under ball. It is very hard to catch ball coming straight down at you.

mighty home run wallop to break the tie. He was followed soon after by "Corky" Strubel who drove out another home run sock with a mate on board. The St. Joes were not to be denied for they broke out in the eighth for a two run flurry, and in the ninth Frank Ogrin of the Joes demonstrated that he also was capable of knocking homers.
Ed Kukic showed invincible form on the mound for the Florians, by striking out 16 Waukegan batsmen and allowing only 6 hits. Tony Opeka, starting pitcher for the Joes, showed that he is improving bs a hurler when he held the Florians at bay for seven innings. He was relieved by Petrovič. The Florians garnered a total of 14 hits off both moundsmen.
This coming Sunday the St. Florians will cross bats with their traditional rivals of the Westside, the St. Stephen Sports, in a game to be played at Calumet Park. This contest which will begin at 3 P. M. promises to be a very interesting one, since both ceams Ere groomed to perfect form.

"THE PITCHER" Physical Requirements
In choosing pitchers, big men#with long arms should be chosen to work on in preference to small men. A pitcher should have long, soft muscles rather than hard muscles. Any training that tends to harden the muscles should be counteracted by other exercises that tend to limber up the muscles.
Pitching requires great physical strength and endurance. It is necessary for the pitcher to train very carefully in order to have his legs j and body as well as his arm in shape. Pitchers who have not trained right usually tire he latter part of the game and are ineffective.
Small men usually are the best curve ball pitchers and develop faster than the large men. For that reason, many -ollege pitchers are small. 3mall men must remember that it will be necessary for them to be in even better condition than the large pitchers. Small men must always remember that they must have •	(Continued on Pse« •>

better control, field their PO-'continually. sition better, and use better He muat jearn to use his judgement than larger pitch-
ers. This means more careful attention to details. No small man should attempt to pitch at top speed all the way through. Small men should learn to pitch as few balls as possible and to use half speed balls often; and to take things easy when there is nobody on base. Otherwise, only the exceptional small man could go through nine innings.
All pitchers should have good eyes. This does not mean that a man who wears glasses can't be a good pitcher; but his vision ought to be accurate either with or without glasses at a distance of sixty feet.
Mental Requirements
Just as a man starting on the study of medicine must make up his mind that he is facing a very hard task and that he must give up many things, so a player who aspires to pitch must first get the idea that he has to hold the most important position in the game. In fact, it is the
body in his delivery in order to save his arm. This takes a lot of work. Only the old pitchers really ' develop good co-ordination between body and arm.
He must learn to take care of his arm. A sore arm is like any other sore. Rest is the best cure. This does not mean that a person should not throw when his arm is sore. But he should never throw hard enough to cause pain. Heat and rest are the best remedies. If the arm is dead the p\tcher should not force it. Better wait a day or two and then go.
A pitcher should be careful about warming up. Warm up slowly for about ten minutes except on exceptionally warm days. Then a player is ready to throw at top speed. He should begin curving slowly after his arm is thoroughly warmed up on fast balls. He should not throw the first curve ball hard. A pitcher should be careful to keep bundled up with sweaters, espe-
Brooklyn, N. Y.—The much advertised dance which was to be held cn Saturday evening, May 31, at St. Cyril's Auditorium for the benefit of fuither-ing the musical ambitions of Jerry Kporivsek, the church organist, is now a thing of the past.
The affair was a huge suc-coss, socially and financially. This ought to prove to Jerry that when it comes to having friends and. backers, he is not a; step-child.
The people came in such large numbers at 11 p. m. I started to wonder where Jerry was going to put them all and at the same time keep them satisfied.
The seven-piece orchestra was the tops» the accordion player was good, the crowd was very sociable and all in all the evening was very successful.

fensive end of the game. With this as a starter he is in the right frame of mind to convince himself that he has to stand anything and everything in the way of physical strain, excitement and abuse.
To begin with he should have an active mind. He must have a good memory, and he must acquire a keen knowledge of the general weakness of hitters. He must learn to solve the weakness of the individual hitters.
He must conduct himself as the leader. A pitcher who does not inspire confidence never gets as good support as one who does. He must remember that he must win. Only a pitcher of this type can bear down in the pinches and that is really the only time it is necessary to bear down.
He must never show the least temper; especially toward an infielder who has made an error. Errors are a part of the game. It is all right for a pitcher to express displeasure for an error of omission or lack of hustle, but never for an error in handling the ball.
A pitcher should never show that he is rattled. He should conduct himself in the pinches as if everything is going as usual; but at the same time, he must go much harder in the pinches without exactly showing that he is doing it.
Technique
After a pitcher is in good physical condition, the first thing he must acquire is good body balance on either foot. He must learn to come down in position to field his position. He must develop activity. This can only be done by fielding bunts and playing hand ball, The really great
away from the trainer if his arm is all right. Some pitchers get the habit and their arm is harmed by the work of the rubber.
A pitcher should learn to hold the ball in the same way for a curve ball, fast ball, and changes of pace. He should learn to deliver the ball in the same way so the smart hitters will not be able to out - guess him. Very few pitchers can do this and it takes hours of careful work. It is very hard to describe a method of throwing a curve ball and a fast ball. Usually a person can find an old pitcher who can show him this much better.
A pitcher, in order to be a pitcher, must have a fast ball. He can learn a curve ball and a change of pace. Especially must he learn a change of pace. Without this he is not a pitcher.
He must pitch in his natural manner, either overhand, underhand, or side arm. Very few people can pitch in two ways. Some pitchers are tempted to try all methods when they see a man successful in. overhand and another day a pitcher successful with an underhand ball. Find your natural way of pitching and stick- to it.
Most important of all for pitcher is control. Young pitchers spend hours and hours trying to learn certain kinds of curves or slow balls, and never seriously try for real control. A pitcher ought to try unceasingly to hit any spot with his fast ball and to do almost the same things with his curve ball. A change of pace is said to be essential to a pitcher, but it is worse than useless if a pitcher does not know where he is throwing it.

Dorothy Trobenter has been elected assistant leader in an election recently held among the girls. The Cadets were wise in their decision, because Dorothy has what it takes.
Our sincerest congratulations to Jennie Sulen and An-nabelle Kraus, two of the members of the Cadets, who graduated from St. Mary's June 7.

Brooklyn, N. Y.—It's a hard job trying to get in touch with one of the members, especially a few days prior to his getting married, but nine out of ten times if you'll look in the right place, meaning his sweetheart's home, you're apt to get him there.
Such was the expeiience the knights had trying to lccate Johnny Supancic, the young man in question, and if the search would have lasted a lit-.le longer the boys would have eventually asked the aid of the G-men and possibly several bloodhounds.
Well, he was at last located and invited to the Slovenian Dom on Tuesday evening where a bachelor party awaited him. About ten of the boys were on hand to greet Johnny
An enjoyable evening was had by all, as the beer was good and plentiful. The singing, while Jerry played the piano, was extra good and the final act of the evening, the presentation of a beautiful chromium electric coffee set as a wedding gift from the boys and presented to him by our financial secretary, Johnny Ribic, after a short but well worded speech which was climaxed by a short but from the heart speech rendered by the bridegroom.
All in all, it was an evening that will not be so easily forgotten by any of the members present.
Me for more and more bachelor parties. Hurry up, boys!
