REV. CLAUDE OKORN, O. F. M.:
OUR NEEDS
SUNDAYS: Lord God, we thank you for the Sunday meal together for the bread and for the love we share. Grant that we may use the strength we gain here to be more present to the needs of those who come to us for help. A more effective leaven in our daily world.
Mindful of those who die in hunger let us never waste what you have so generously provided for us.
MONDAY:	(prayer of the worker):	Let us pray
for a week of work well-done, satisfying, supporting. Let us pray for all who work in our city, our nation, our world. For those in factories and laboratories, in schools and hospitals, for those who work in offices and streets and homes and for those who lie in our gutters and those who reach to us for alms. Make us creative workers, purposeful. Teach us too, to sweat over our task and to share all we earn and all we become through our work just as your Son Jesus did.
TUESDAY: (husband’s morning prayer): I am alive, Lord, and I am grateful. For the strength for my family, the every morning-fresh-again newness, I thank you for the strong legs of my running child, for the probing mind of the boy in high school, for the “rich-world” my wife is to me—how can I thank you enough? You know how precious life is. You are life and way and all besides. Be everything to us so that we can, like you be alive, for all who come to us looking for meaning and hope and help.
POST CONVENTION CAMPAIGN
Hurry — Hurry — Hurry! How many of you members have given it a thought and started campaigning to win this free trip to Washington in August? You better get on the ball as the time is getting short and before you know it the deadline will be here. It is well worth working for!

MIDWEST BOWLING TOURNAMENT THIS MONTH!
No. 2. Chicago III. Bowling News.
The Chicago S. W. U. bowling league is suffering from our mid-winter cold waves (Tuesdays always seem to be the coldest days of the week), but it certainly isn’t suffering from lack ol competition.
As of Jan. 19th, St. Paul Federal maintained its lead with a record of 44 wins and 22 losses. Zefran Funeral Home managed to cut the lead to 2% games with 41% wins and 24% losses. Reliance Federal was in third with 39 wins and 27 losses.
Marquette Service Station, with 38% wins and 27% losses, moved up to fourth. John F. Cuneo , with 36 wins and 20 losses, fell to fifth.
Dorothy Maes took over the lead in high individual handicap game with a 258. All other handicap leaders remained the same.
There were many high individual series during January, but my pick for “star” of the month is Agnes Marrazzo, who bowled 476—98 pins over her 126 average. Agnes celebrated her 65th birthday this month. She was one of the original bowlers in our league. Sharing the spotlight was Geneva Niedzielko, who shot 499, which was 100 pins over her 133 average.
Other high series during January:
E.	Kroschel, 529; S. Melissa, 523; S. Gorka, 522 and 506; A. Vucko, 513: A. Persa, 506 and 505; E. Statkus, 503; L. Hasek, 500.
Railroad pick-ups for the month: M. Persa, 5-8-10; C. Wrezzes, 4-5-7; J. Ovnik, 5-7 and 3-7-10; A. Persa, 3-7-10; L. Putzell, S. Gorka, S. Melissa, 3-10; A. Hozzian, 2-5-7 and 5-7; M. Lear. 6-7.
I	sure hope it’s a little warmer when we get together next month.

ACTIVITIES
No. 12, Milwaukee, Wis. Hope you all had a Happy New Year! Among your New Year’s Resolutions, I hope you included trying to be at some of our meetings, at least, as well as the social events.
January’s meeting was not too well-attended but at least we were able to go on with the election of officers which was postponed in December because we felt there weren’t enough to really make a good election. All officers were unanimously re-elected except for the Vice-President, Ann Meier, who declined because her mother’s illness takes too much of her time. In her place we will have her twin sister, Jo Wilhelm. The former auditors also wished to be replaced so Ann Meier consented to be one along with Stavia Dobersek. The meeting date stays the same except that we are leaving out the June
No. 20, Joliet, III’., Bowling news.
We would like to congratulate the Northwest Recreation Club on their Twenty Fifth Anniversary. The Northwest Rec Club has been one of our sponsors for a number of years. Good luck to all the members.
All the girls would like to send get-well wishes to Mr. Edward Kobe, Mrs. Jenny Skul and Rose Krowiak. Mr. Kobe has been in the hospitatl for several weeks; his wife Ann is one of our faithful bowlers. Mrs. Skul was also hospitalized. She is the mother of Jenny Lou Skul, one of our new bowlers this year. Rose Krowiak was in the hospital for surgery; she is the Capt. of Northwest Recreation team. Hurry and get well.
We had one change in our team standings last month. Fred C. Dames was in last place and Shep’s Service Station second last. Well, this montli Fred C. Dames moved out of the basement, winning 8 out of 12 games. Nice work, girls! Now we have to give Shep’s a little moral support.
January was Mary Lou Bluth’s big month, she joined our “500 Club” with a 503 series — high game of 181. (I guess the bowling lessons her mother, Bernie Bluth, gave her are starting to pay off.) Marge Waj-chert had a 509 and Gen Klainsek 509 and 519.
We had some nice high games rolled in January. Mary Mihelich rolled 188, Marge Wajchert 208, Jo Mlakar 196. Vickie Bernickas 188, Mary Rudman 182, Mary Lou Bluth 181 and Agnes Verbiscer 187.
Splits picked up by Kay Sukle 1-2-4-10, Ann Sternisha 5-8-10. Ann Kobe and Dorothy Horvat 5-7.
Remember the S. W. U. Bowling Tournament at Raynor Bowl. Everyone is welcome. Instead of watching the Pros on T. V. stop in at Raynor Bowl and watch them on March 27th and 28th. (These are the S. W. U. Pros.) See you there.
Gen Klainsek
meeting to give all members the whole summer for vacations and other plans.
Remember, we always have a short social with games and lunch following each meeting and usually, we have a few prizes. The January meeting had no games because of the extra business, bat we all enjoyed some coffee, cake, and ham sandwiches — all donated by Stavia in remembrance of her mother Mrs. Gostechnik who passed away in November of 1961. We all enjoyed the lunch and had some time discussing the holidays and recent gossip. Try to join us for the next one as we will have a few future social dates to decide on, as well as the trip to Washington in August. Resevations will have to be made not later than
June for that affair. Let’s have a good representation.
The entertainment committee is also planning a miscellaneous card party on Sunday, March 21 at the Lily Club on 22nd and National at 2 p. m. Tickets were to ready for that event in February. We always have the book, “From Slovenia to America,” the commemorative stamps of Marija Pomagaj and cookbooks for sale, so contact your president, Mrs. Plesko or myself and we’re always ready for more new members. Juniors are welcome, too. and transfers from Junior to Adult classes. Mrs. Plesko started the new year out by getting three new members, a mother and two grown daughters, all “B” members. Congratulations and we welcome Mrs. Josephine Mursec, Ljudmila Mursec and Sylvia Hojnacki into our group. We need more to replace the faithful “older” members who have gone to their lasting homes. Sincerely,
Mary Dezman, Secy.
No. 26, Pittsburgh, Pa. — The attendance of our December meeting was excellent and our Christmas party a success. We all agreed to make a Christmas donation to the church and also a donation to the Slovenian Radio program. Frances Kunic was chosen for the Mother of the Year. She is one of our auditors. Our next meeting will be March 16th. We will discuss our luncheon and card party to be held on May 18th.
Attention all members who are interested in going to Washington, D.
C.	in August for the dedication of the Slovenian Chapel. Now you pay $20.00, till March 31	1971
(those who pay after April 1, the fee is $23.00) for what is called the Dedication Activities Package.
Our sympathy to Mary Antloger on the death of her husband.

Get well wishes are extended to all our sick members.
Anne Fran kovic, Secretary
No. 32, Euclid, Ohio. — Our Decem-her meeting Christmas party was attended with a tremendous attendance and most gratifying to our president. It was beautiful. The meeting was short. As we reviewed the by-laws we decided to continue with them as in the past years — it saves space, too. Dear members of Br. 32, this is one important change. When you are sick and hospitalized, please have someone notify an officer within 3 months oT the illness so you can get your benefit. Please cooperate, won’t you?
We had election of officers for 1971: President Mary Bostian; Vice-Presi-

No. 33, Duluth, Minn. The Duluth branch of the Slovenian Women’s Union, met on January Cth. It was a cold night to be out, but it was so nice to see so many of our members come to the meeting in spite of the cold weather. Many issues were discussed and settled, which at this time of the year are important.
To those members who were not present it is time for dues again. Help our secretary-treasurer and try to pay a few months ahead. And if you are behind be sure to get caught up, so she can get her books straight for the year.
The program for Feb. 3rd was to be very interesting and concern the different flags of our country and their origin. This was to be presented by Mr. Jerome Blazevic and some of the Scouts from Troop 13. The younger members ol the branch served the lunch that evening.
Activity for our junior members was held later in January in the form of bowling and lunch. Lots of fun. We are getting good participation with the junior members from Branch No. 33.
Would like to greet our shut-ins and those on the sick list. Our wishes are with you, and we look forward to the warmer months when some of you will be able to attend the meetings again.
Our meeting closed with prayer. Cards and games were then played for the rest of the evening, which everyone enjoyed.
PESSIMIST — If it wasn’t for the optimist, the pessimist would never know how happy he wasn’t.

MARIE PRISLAND:
CAPSULES
The cover of our ZARJA this month features a pictorial description of how it’s printed. It’s a very interesting study.
Corinne Novak Leskovar is the editor of our magazine since 1952. As a young woman of 25 she accepted the responsibilities from her mother, who had been the editor for the previous 19 years.
Corinne attended Colorado State University at Boulder majoring in English Literature.
All of us are aware that Corinne is a fine editor trying her best to portray the soul and the heart of Zveza activities in written form. Beside this work she with her husband, Ludwig, have conducted a Slovenian radio hour for the last 20 years. We can imagine how much work and preparation this takes. Every year the Radio Hour presents a program which attracts hundreds of people. When a Slovenian group or an individual of note comes to Chicago, Corinne is ready to take over. When the Chicago-Slovenians are called upon to be represented, such as at their yearly Christmas festival. Corinne is there to give a helping hand. The nicest thing about her is, that she does everything almost perfectly, a virtue not possessed by many.
Corinne writes the Minutes of our National Board meetings. She is respectfull and helpful at all times.
Besides doing all this work she also is a wonderful mother, raising her two children in traditional Slovenian manner. Her 14 year old daughter Miriam can prepare the nicest dinner, and her 12 year old son Tonček sets the table and then prays in Slovenian before the
meal. This brings lo my mind the statement made by the Illinois Congresman Roman Pucinski, who said: “If all the mothers and lathers would bring up their children the .way the Slovenian parents do, we would not have any juvenile delinquencies.”
In the Memorial book, issued in Cleveland in 1935 at the opening of the Yugoslav Cultural Garden, little Corinne wrote into my book:
To Mrs. Prisland:
God made the flowers and the showers,
God made the skies of blue;
God made the stars that shine at night.
He made the sunshine too.
And then, to do the job up right,
He made good friends like you!

The women’s liberation movement sometimes takes unexpected turns.
For instance, there is the decision of a Superior Court judge in the state of Connecticut in a divorce case. The judge granted a divorce to the husband on the grounds of misconduct by his wife and also awarded him the custody of the couple’s two chlidren. But what really hurts is the court’s order under which the wife is ordered to pay her former husband $25 a week in child support.

A hearty THANK YOU to the Committee which conducted the First Slovenian Cotillion Debutante Ball that was held May 23rd in Cleveland last year for donating its proceeds of $250.00 into the Scholarship Fund. We sincerely hope that the Cleveland-Euclid members will continue with this kind of entertainment which brought enjoyment to a thousand people attending the Ball, and was a great publicity benefiting our organization.
No. 34, Soudan, Minn. After an interval of two months—we had no meeting in December—a very good turnout of members showed up at the first meeting of the year in 1971. With Mrs. John Pahula presiding, the first order of business was election of officers and all present officers were unanimously re-elected and they are:	Mrs. John Pahula, president;
Mrs. William Vollendorf, vice president; Mrs. Mary Pahula, secretary-treasurer; Mrs. Dominick Tekautz sr., recording secretary; Mrs. Frank Planton sr., Mrs. John Zavodnick and Mrs. Joseph Gornick, trustees and Mrs. Anthony F. Yapel, reporter.
Mrs. Mary Pahula then gave the financial report and members discussed several money making projects, which were tabled for the next meeting when a project will be decided on.
Mrs. John Pahula read a letter from the Slovenian Chapel Committee informing the members of the forthcoming dedication of the Slovenian Chapel in the Basilica in Washington, D. C. which is to be held on August 15, 1971. Anyone interested in attending the dedication may obtain information and brochures from the secretary, Mrs. Mary Pahula. Information can be had through our DAWN Magazine also.
A social hour followed the bus-
iness meeting with prizes going to Mrs. Louise Chiabotti and Mrs. John Zavodnik in “500” and to Mrs. Joseph Mesojedec and Mrs. Frederick Myre in “Cootie”. The atendance prize furnished by Mrs. Ramon Berg was awarded to Mrs. Dominick Tekautz.
Mrs. Tekautz and Mrs. Ernest Johnson, hostesses, served a tasty luncheon at the conclusion of the evening's activities.
Hostesses for February were Mrs. Joseph Jamnick and Mrs. William Lilya. Mrs. John Bobence will provide the attendance prize.
A NEW YEAR—and a new beginning. Let us try our best to get a new member for SWU—and to pro mote the activities of SWU—it is a great feeling to know that we are helping to preserve our SLOVENIAN heritage.
Mrs. Anthony F. (Barbara) Yapel,

No. 40 Lorain, Ohio. This is an invitation and a reminder to all members to attend our meetings on the second Wednesday of every month. Although we do not make any world shaking news, these meetings provide a good chance to visit.
At the December meeting, forty members toasted each other through the courtesy of Rose Cerne and then sat down to a delicious roast beef
dinner with all the trimmings, including “štrukle”. Angela Kozjan prepared the roast beef. Anne Bob-rowski made the štrukle, Albina Ueh-lien and Angelina Vojtko brought salads. All the officers as well as many other members provided the baked goods.
A constant joy and inspiration to us all are our octogenarians. Most of them attend our meetings regularly, and all of the following were at tile December dinner-meeting:	Mrs.
Mary Plečnik who is 90, Mrs. Frances Tomazic who is 89, Mrs. Agnes Jančar of 30th St., who is 82, Mrs. Mary Jere who is 83, Mrs. Mary Vranich, Mrs. Mary Mlach, and our president, Mrs. Agnes Jancar who are all 80. God bless you all!
Officers elected for the coming year are: Agnes Jancar, president; Albina Uehlien, vice-president, Angela Kozjan, secretary; Mary Klinar, Treasurer; Stephanie Polutnik, Recording Secretary. The auditors are Mary Kurjan, president and Agnes Celik and Rose Kragely. Mary Jere is parliamentarian. Stephanie Polutnik was chosen Mother of the Year.
During this past year, our monthly attendance has been improving. We hope this trend continues. Members in need of transportation should call any of the officers and arrangements will be made. Stephanie Polutnik
No. 42, Maple Heights, Ohio. —
The New Year brought new joys to many of our members: Angela Perlto has become a great grandmother for the very first time and Mary Yemee proudly adds another grandchild to her list. Congratlations, ladies, to you and your families.
Antonia Kastelic’s son, Lou (husband of (Yours Truly) ha been named State Superintendent of Banks — an appointment that makes us all very proud and happy. Soon we will be moving from the fair city of Cleveland to take on this new venture in Columbus.
The wintery, cold January days did not bother Theresa Simonič a bit — she spent three delightful weeks in sunny California visiting a friend and touring many interesting cities and places.
Before closing, we wish Frances Legan a very Happy Birthday and also a Happy Name’s Day to all the Josephines who will celebrate St. Joseph’s Day on March 19th.

No. 43, Milwaukee, Wis. First, let me thank all the members for all the get-well cards that I received during my illnes, and also to Father Claude Okorn for the hospital and home visits. I do have a lot to report and hope that space will permit.
The officers for 1971 are Anne Konc-zal, president; Josephine Kolar, vice-president; Rose Kraemer, secretary and treasurer; Vickie Sporis, recording secretary and sunshine girl (who does a great job in remembering birthdays), Josephine Verbick and
Christine Rebemisek auditors, Ceil Groth sergent-at-arms. Anna Konc-zal was chosen mother of the year. The meetingdate has been changed (please remember this) to the first Thursday evening of each month at
7	p. m. at the Lily Club at 2220 W. National Ave., except the month of July and August, no meetings. The change was due to an interference with other organization meetings and members wishing to spend Sundays with their husbands and families. We are hoping that the change will bring more members to our meetings. The special assessment of 50tf per member for postage and other expense remains and also the 150 death assessment per members. In 1970 our branch was very fortunate by not having any deaths. Any member who is hospitalized is entitled to a $2.00 cash gift, and if you know of anyone who is in the hospital, please inform me.
At this time, I am sorry to announce that we have had several sick members, some are recovering, others still are on the sick list. Sophie Bevsek was at the Elm Brook Memorial Hospital, Shirley Schulta was hospitalized, Marge Zefran was hospitalized with a bad back injury. Agnes Podriznik was at the St. Joseph’s Hospital, Celia Vachetz was at Trinity Memorial Hospital for several weeks, Amalia Fritzel had surgery at St. Luke’s Hospital, Anna Srnovrsnik had fallen and taken to the hospital for several days. All the members are now at home, so remember them with a get-well card or a visit. To all other sick members and
the above a speedy recovery. To our nursing home members, Anna Srnovrsnik, Anna Preloznik and Jennie Prah our warmest thoughts and best wishes.
A warm welcome to 2 new members, namely Anica Winkler and Jamie Frangesh.
Congratulations for Mr. and Mrs. Eddie and Elsie Gallun on their 2 granddaughters, both born in December and Mr. and Mrs. John and Sophie Rifely.
On February 5th Mr. ai\d Mrs. Valentine Kolar celebrated their fiOth Wedding Anniversary. Josephine is a charter member and has been active in the branch. Both are retired and their favorite pastime is playing cards. They are the proud parents of
2	sons .Edward who is married to Audrey and they have one daughter and Roman who is married to Patricia. Happy Golden Anniversary to Mr. and Mrs. Valentine and Josephine IColar, and many, many more happy and memorable years together.
Belated birthday greetings to the following January and February celebrants: Patricia Veselka, Mary Mu-sich, Amalie Fritzel, Patricia Bengsch, Agnes Bachun, Mary Kiel, Mary Tratnik, Shirley Schulta, Mary Wuky and Barbara Scott, to our February celebrants, Marie Hudaj, Rose Kraemer, Frances Widemsek, Olga Zovic, Ronald Tratnik, Mary Piacen-tine, Anna Yeray, Maria Rozina, Tll-lie Slatinselc, Donalyn Walsh, Anica Winkler, Mary Plahuta, Katherine Osep, Mary Ann Scott, Anna Srnovrsnik.
ON TllE COVER . . .
A PICTURE STORY ABOUT YOUR ZARJA
Each month, ZARJA comes into your homes as a welcome visitor. Thinking it might be of interest to you, our members, to know a little more about it, the feature this month is a picture story about ZARJA, as it is prepared, printed, and mailed.
After your numerous writeups, stories, reports and official material is read over, typed and prepared by the Editor, the Benedictine Press workers take over. As the cover pictures indicate, the cycle is repeated each and every month. And, as one can imagine, each process is directly or indirectly supervised by the Editor.
All the material to be printed is first set on the linotype machine by Brother Valerian, a veteran operator who is seen here with Brother Peter the machinist who keeps everything in good working order. The typesetting in both languages, reading of proofs and making of corrections takes approximately 8 working days.
The next operation is handled by Louis Muzelak who has worked for ZARJA the entire 30 plus years it has been printed in Chicago. Louis takes all the type, sets it in pages according to the Editor’s master pasteup copy, runs the proofs and puts in the corrected lines. It Is his knowhow that produces the good looking pages in ZAUJA.
Pages into “forms” go down to the pressroom for printing on the big press by Carl Damm and each form takes a day to print. If ZARJA is on 16 pages, there are two 8 page forms plus covers, total three printing
days. If ZARJA is larger, another day per form is
necessary.
ZARJA goes into the folder under the supervision of Brother Rafael and comes out ready for “gathering” or assembling by Mrs. Elizabeth Kanka and Mrs. Frances Burkhardt. Here again, the process takes time depending on the number of sections.
After it is folded and gathered, the stitching machine gets to work with John Novogorodski in charge. Each copy is “stitched” or stapled together and trimmed by the big cutters.
Members, your names and addresses are kept on small metal plates in the mailing room that are then fed into the addressograph machine and printed on your copy of ZARJA. John again takes charge of this operation and also keeps the plates in order making changes of addresses and cancellations according to the lists compiled in the Home Office.
The finishing and	addressing	of ZAP.JA	is	approxi-
mately a five day job, and takes lots of physical energy.
Then, off goes ZARJA to the main Chicago post office facility in the mail sacks that will eventually come to your city and your	home.
From the time the first sheet of ZARJA enters the printing shop until it goes out completed, almost three weeks has elapsed.	If you live	far from	our	mailing
area, it will take another week for postal delivery. At the Home Office and Editorial Office not a day goes by that ZARJA is forgotten or left unattended. The daily mail brings your reports, questions, suggestions and changes and far in advance, plans and preparations must be made for future issues. When you read your ZARJA, enjoy it and love it. It’s the work or many people who put their time	and energy and loyal	dedication
into every issue.	EDITOR

As I receive many contributions to our Scholarshap Fund in memory of Mrs. Josephine Železnikar, I think of this sweet, petite, gentle woman as I remember her at. the Convention in Washington, D. C. On every occasion when there was a group of our women singing, she was there happily participating with her lovely voice. She and Mrs. Emma Planinšek harmonized beautifully. If the song had seven verses they knew all the words of each verse.
However, my fondest memory of Josephine is her standing at the podium, her head barely visible for she was so short, directing the entire Convention assemblage for a final song before closing with: Češčena se Marja— ko pride zadnja ura, Marija prid’ po nas.” I can’t help but feel that she was comforted by the love of the Blessed Virgin Mary during her final hours.
Godbys, HERMINE

Fanika Humar, Secretary
No. 67, Bessemer, Pa. — Summer activities are over and we have once again started our meetings. Still the second Sunday of the month.
In November the ladies chartered a bus and went to the Blue Crytsal Inn in Greenville, Pa. to have their Christmas Dinner; they all had a good time. After dinner they stayed and danced.
In December we held our Christmas Party and gift exchange, each lady brought their favorite dish. Also e-lection of officers was held. The same faces will be around for another year. We wish a lot more members would attend; we know a lot more could be accomplished. Please ladies look at your dues book and see if you are paid up.
At our December the ladies talked of attending the dedication of the Chapel in Washington, D. C. on Aug. 15th. We have our bus, now all we need is to fill it up. So, ladies any of you interested in going must place a $10.00 deposit down by March. See Mildred Hulina for details.
Best wishes and greetings go out to all our members in hospitals, home and in nursing homes. We wish Mrs. Frances Djubic good health and hope she is getting along fine. Best wishes also to Kathy Novad who was in the hospital and is recuperating at home.
I also send a personal Thank You to the ladies for being so nice to me at the passing of my Mother in December. I will miss her very much. May she rest in peace!
Birthday greetings to all our celebrants and good health to our shut-in’s. “May God Bless you all”.

No. 72, Pullman, III. — The following members were elected to office at our December meeting:	Angela
Arko, President; Wilma Zagar, Secretary and Treasurer; Margaret Vrhovnik, Recording Secretary, Stephanie Sheehy, Auditor, and Wilma Zagar, Reporter.
We wish to thank Mrs. Mary Klun, out outgoing president for her many years of service. She has been a fine president and we are sorry to see her give up the gavel. But we welcome our new president Angela Arko and look forward to working with her in the future.
Our December meeting was held at the home of Margaret Vrhovnik in South Holland, and it was a lovely Christmas Party, in addition to the meeting. We thank Margaret for her gracious hospitality.
Mrs. Zadnik had a fall and broke her hip. She is in St. Francis Hospital in Blue Island. I know a visit
—	if you are able to make it — or a card, would be greatly appreciated.
Mrs. Levstik is still in the Colonial Manor Nursing Home, 339 9th St., La Grange, 111. I am sure she would be glad to hear from you too. We have quite a number of sick members right now. To all of you — please know that our good wishes and prayers are with you always.
Our next meeting will be on Sunday March 14t.h at Mrs. Arko’s home. Hope to see you there.
Wilma Zagar, Reporter
P. S. I just heard that Mrs. Zadnik is now home from the hospital.
No. 73. Warrensville, Heights, O.
Congratulations are in order to Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Travnik (Frances Sukovich), having celebrated their 40th Wedding Annversary February 4th. Mrs. Travnik is a longtime member of the Slovenian Women’s Union. Mr. Travnik is a member of the City of Warrensville Heights, Ohio Fire Department. Their son Joseph, Jr. was to be married February 20, 1971. He had been in the United States Army and had served time overseas and in Vietnam. He was the recipient of a “Purple Heart”. All the members of Branch No. 73 offer our congratulations, and wish them good health and many more years of happiness.
Miss Molly Danicic of Warrensville Heights, retired from Western Union Telegraph after 46 years of faithful service. She was an Accountant Supervisor at the time of her retirement December 31st 1970. Her length of service with one company is e-nough to denote her conscientiousness to her employer and also her employer’s faith and trust in Molly not only as an employee but as a person. After a good rest, and taking care of various things that one has to neglect while working, we all hope to see Molly regularly at our meetings. We all hope she has a long and contented retirement.
The calendar of events for Branch No. 73 for the coming year 1971 are as follow:
April 18—35th Anniversary Mass at St. Jude’s church.
April 22—Annual Card Party at St. Francis of Assissi Hall, located next to St. Jude’s church.
May 3—Mother’s Day Pot Luck Dinner
June—Mystery Trip
July and August—No meeting
August 15—Washington, D. C., trip September 13—Cook out October—Birthday celebration month —Dinner out November—(no plans as yet) December 6—Christmas Party and Pot Luck Dinner Catherine Papez, a member who is connected with the Health Spa located in Maple Hgts., presented us with compliiinentary tickets for one night’s free admission, so instead of our regular monthly meeting, all the members are to meet at the Spa where those who desire to, or those without physical handicaps preventing them, can indulge in all the Spa has to offer in exercises, mechanical therapy, swimming, etc. After this session, all those participants as well as on-lookers, will converge in one of the nearby restaurants for a snack. The members participating will be hungry from their work out, and the onlookers will have worked up an appetite just watching — so look out calories — here we come!
It is with deep regret at this time, and also with great personal sympathy, I find ih necessary to report the sudden death of one Michael Adamovich, the seventeen year old sou of one of our members. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Adamovich (Betty), and the second oldest of five boys. A Rosary was said at the Otto J. Vales Funeral Home on Sunday, January 3rd, with a large turn-out of our members participating. We were led in prayer by Rev. Fr. Ralph Zetzl, O. F. M. who also conducted the Funeral Mass on January 4th at St. Jude’s church. The thoughts and prayers of all our members shall continue for everlasting peace for the deceased as well as the family.
Since we only just heard about the death last August of John Godfrey Sr., father of John Godfrey and father-in-law of our member Dorothy, we are at this time sending our belated sympathy to the family.
Our best wishes for a speedy recovery to "Jo Jo” Valich after minor surgery at Lake County Memorial Hospital.
Be sure to keep the date of April 18th in mind, also on your personal calendar, as being our 35th Anniversary Mass at 9 a. m. at St. Jude's church. After this Mass and receiving Communion in a group, we shall all retire to one of the nearby restaurants for breakfast. We are
all hoping that many of our members who are unable to atend our regular monthly meetings will be able to join us for this Anniversary Mass.
Better late than never, but many thanks to Ann Fike, our vice president, lor the time and effort she put in making very attractive favors for our combination Christmas Party and Pot Luck Dinner. These favors were not only practical since they were “Tu-Tu balls of nylon net in the traditional red and green colors, but also had a candy cane attached to same to wet the sweet tooth.
We all hope that the ravages of winter cold and its effects skips not only members of the Union everywhere, but everyone.
Mildred D. Roberts, Sec’y.
No. 77, N. S. Pittsburgh, Pa. —
As I sit and write this article, it is January and we are in the midst of a terrible cold wave. Hopefully, in March as you read this article the weather will have improved.
We are looking forward to our first meeting in 1971. It will be held on the second Wednesday, April 14th at 8 p. m. at our regular location, which is St. Mary’s Lyceum on the corner of Nash and Pressley Sts.
We will have a meeting concerning our Anniversary Party to be held in May. Following the meeting we will enjoy playing our favorite Penny Game.
At this time all the officers and our families wish to extend to all our members and their families a joyous and Blessed Easter wishes.
Don’t forget to circle April 14t.h on your calendar, so that we will be sure to see you then.
Betty Ann Murphey, President
No. 85, Depue, III. — A large crowd of relatives and friends attended the 50th Wedding Anniversity of Mr. and Mrs. Anton Jermene on Jan. 10th with a Mass in their honor celebrated at St. Mary’s church at 10 a. m. by Father Edward Bawiec.
The former Mary Sterle and Anton Jermene were married Jan. 9, 1921 at St. Roch’s church, LaSalle, 111. Attendants were Mr. and Mrs. John Yuvan, Sr. of Depue, Mrs. Angela Rokavic of Berwyn, 111. and the late John Sterle of Joliet, 111.
Mr. and Mrs. Jermene have lived In Pepue all their married life. They are the parents of three children: Mary, at home, Edward of Peru, 111 and Mrs. John (Ann) Debord of Princeton, 111. They have 5 grandchildren.
An open house, hosted by their children, was held at the Slovenian Dom from 2 p.m. till 5 p. m. (I was told the celebration lasted long after 5 p. m.) We wish them many more years together. They are a couple who have faithfully lived up to the vows taken 50 years ago. My husband Vincent, was the chauffer for the Wedding party on their Wedding Day.
I was unable to attend the celebration due to a bad cold (which I sincerely regretted). When Vince came home, he said it was a good thing I hadn't attended as the guests were given buttons which had these words printed on them: “kiss me. I’m Slovenian” and I would have been a “cold germ carrier!” He also said that the crowd was so large, I wouldn’t have been able to get in. (I wonder if he was trying to tell me I should go on a diet again!)
Deepest sympathy is extended to the Anton Tomazin family, Chicago, on the passing of Anton (husband of the former Mary Papish). Mrs. Tomazin was my neighbor in Granville, 111. when I was a little girl (which was quite a few years ago.) May he rest in peace!
The weather has turned cold, but I hope at our next meeting a few more will turn out.

No. 86, Nashwauk, Minn. — We held our regular meeting on Tuesday, January 2Gtli at 5:30 p. m. with 17 members present. Following the business session, we, the members, a-long with 7 guests, enjoyed a delicious turkey dinner with all the trimmings. This was our belated Christmas Party. The dinner was prepared and served by our President Mary Zakrajšek, with the assistance of some of the members Most of the members pitched in with the clean-up job after the dinner. A social hour followed with prizes in cards going to Rose Papatola, high in Canasta and Christine Meyer, low. Anna Bolf won high in Bridge and Ida Menard, low. It was a bitterly cold night so we appreciated the effort the ladies made in coming out.

Br. 89, Oglesby, III. Our January meeting was fairly well-attended. We had old business to take care of following a no meeting at the December Christmas Party. Election of officers was held and the installation was read by Mrs. Josephine Argu-bright. The books were edited and found in srdce. The charter was draped and prayers were read for the late Mrs. Sophie Papesh. Sympathy is extended to her family. The bowlers have some candy left for sale and they are making long range plans for the next tournament.
Anyone knowing of a sick member plaese call the sunshine chairman Mrs. Frances Meglich. This will be my last report, the new reporter will be Mrs. Caroline Dawson. Thanks to all who helped with the news and to those who took the time to read it.
Mary Kernz, Reporter
No. 95, So. Chicago, III. When the holidays are over perhaps many of you found yourselves surrounded by some free time and wanting to get away from it all! Try to attetnd one of our meetings which are relaxing and very informal and enjoy a bit of a chit-chat with some of your friends which you have not seen in a long time! Try it some times!
There was no meeting in January and nothing to report, but I do want to wish a very happy and blessed birthday to the following who are celebrating in March: Catherine Al-firevich, Manda Dosen, Helen Golich, Ann Granich, Elaine Grankowski, Cecelia Isek, Mary Jurlto, Lucy Kopilash, Rose Nowak, Ann Pave, Ann Pearson, Rose Marie Perpich, Catherine Placzkowski, Helen Repaich, Dorothy Sleczka, Viola Spitz, Eva Starcevich, Josephine Zadro, Marie Zeffiro, Helen Mazar, Rose Marie Budesetich, Kathleen Rose Quinn( Sister M. Adriene), Mary Childs, Shirely Duich, Catherine Ann Hanson and Virginia D. Pilarski.
Get-well wishes to all of our members who are ailing. Hoping to see all of you at our April 7th meeting.
Congratulations and best wishes to Lillian Mary Grepo and Michael William Carnahan who were united in Holy Marriage recently at the Newman Catholic Student Center of Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona. The bride is the daughter of Matilda Grepo, 10543 Ave. M.
In conclusion, our members join me to express prayerful sympathy at the passing of Josephine Železnikar, former National Treasurer. To me she will be a great loss to our Slovenian Women’s Union as her good judgment and wisdom will be sorely missed. My foremost recollection at this moment that she was a quiet, modest woman conscious of her responsibilities and to depreciate her own charms and abilities. Her genial personality and the generous instincts of this fine woman will be missed not only by the National Officers but by everbody in the organization. To Josephine’s family and relatives we express condolences on our mutual loss. In the prayers of our Slovenian Women’s Union Josephine’s deeds and her memory will ever live.	Mildred James

MARIE PRISLAND:
Ameriški reveži
Newjorslti župan se je silno razjezil, ko mu je bilo sporočeno, da je mestna dobrodelna organizacija nastanila brezdomsko mater in njene štiri otroke v največjem hotelu mesta, v Waldorf-Astoria. Najnižja enosobna najemnina za eno noč v tem hotelu stane 70 dolarjev.
“Welfare” predstavniki so se opravičevali, da je družina bila izgnana iz prejšnega hotela, kjer je rent znašal le 1G6 dolarjev na teden za stanovanje z dvema sobama.
Hotel je potreboval sobi za turistč, zato se je družina morala seliti in dragega prostora ni bilo. Žena je rekla, da je svetovala naj bi jim dali dve sobi pri njeni prijateljici, kjer bi najemnina znašala le 100 dolarjev tedensko. Organizacija tega ni dovolila, tako se je družina znašla v najbolj luksuznem hotelu New Yorka. Otrokom se je tam kar dopadlo, ker so upali, da bodo videli hollywoodske zvezde.
Jugoslavija
V	najbolj razvitih predelih Slovenije dosega osebni letni dohodek približno 3,000 dolarjev, v pokrajini Kosovo v Srbiji pa komaj 50 dolarjev letno.
V	nekaterih predelih Hrvatske oblasti vspodbujajo ženske, da bi večkrat rodile, ker imajo več umrlih kot rojenih. Ženske-matere bi naj od vlade prejele večji otroški dodatek, daljši porodniški dopust če so zaposljene, ter večje možnosti za stanovanje.
Za časa obiska ameriškega predsednika v Jugoslaviji so v Ijubljani študentje raznašali proti-ameriške letake, češ, da je predsednik Nixon imperialistični kralj. Študentje so mladi in ne pomislijo, da bi Jugoslavija danes ne bila to kar je brez ameriške pomoči.
Ko se leta kopičijo.
Ameriška zdravnica piše o starosti:
“Rada bi povedala svoje mnenje o starosti, ki se je mnogo ljudi boji in brani. Videla sem sto in sto žensk, ki se starosti niso mogle privaditi, kar me je zelo pretreslo. Zame je doba po 60-tim letom najlepša in najdragocenejša.
S	starostjo se ni mogoče uspešno bojevati. Ljubezni in spoštovanje otrok si ni mogoče pridobiti s tem, da jim rečeš, da si star.
Mi vsi se staramo, zato nam bodi prvi nauk: Sprijaznimo se s tem! Bojevati se s staranjem je pogubna igra, vedro in pametno se vdati staranju pa blesteča zmaga.
Starost prinaša vse polno tegob, ki k starosti spadajo kot sivi lasje. Pridejo bolečine v hrbtu, v kolenih večkrat škriplje, vid in sluh pričneta padati in pozabljiv je.
Vse take bolečine pa niso stvari, s katerimi bi se morali vedno ukvarjati in nanje misliti kot to počno nekateri ljudje. Človek se mora sprijazniti s tem. Glavnega toka življenja ne smemo zajeziti z vednim pritoževanjem nad malimi malenkostmi, lcl Jih starost prinese.
Ko starejši človek gre v pokoj je važno za njegovo zdravje in dolgo življenje, da ima prijeten dom. Ženski je mnogo lažje iti v pokoj kot moškemu. Ženska je namreč gospodinja in to tudi ostane. Kadar odide v pokoj moški, se zanj prične novo življenje. Dokler je v službi se žene za uspehi, da ga nobena druga stvar ne zanima. Po upokojitvi pa nima več svojega navadnega dela in če si ni znal ustvariti nekaj zaposlitve ali kak
“hobby”’, ga upokojitev čisto stre, ker se nima kam zateči. Prične se vidno starati in misli na smrt.
Po upokojitvi se večkrat zgodi, da zakon na novo zaživi. Mož in žena se včasih še le v poznih letih najdeta ter se v tihih letih starosti zavedata, kaj pomeni tovarištvo, kaj medsebojna ljubezen.
Starost pa je žalostna doba za zakonce, ki se ne razumeta, vendar žena vseeno najde delo in zanimanje pri svojih vnukih, medtem ko je mož večkrat zapuščen in potisnjen vstran in včasih celo nezaželjen pri domačih.
Večkrat se postarana zakonca preselita k sinu ali hčerki, kar ni dobro. Dve gospodinji v eni liiši je nesreča za obe. Mož, ki je bil gospodar vso svoje življenje se bo pri sinu ali hčerki znašel odvisnega, kar bo zanj velika težava in postal bo siten. Star človek se veliko boljše počuti v svojem domu, čeprav skromnem, kjer je samostojen ,kot pa v najlepši hiši, kjer bi se moral ravnati po želji drugih ljudi.
Duševne in telesne neprilike se pokažejo pri enem človeku prej kot pri drugem in tudi slabšajo se pri enem človeku prej kot pri drugem. Star človek si mora prizadevati, da goji mlad duh, da se ne zanemari, temveč obdrži pogled v svet, zaradi katerega se veseli novega dne, ko bo videl prijatelje, cvetlice, ptičke, orumenelo listje ali novo zapadel sneg.
Starost je doba, ko mora človek biti nežen in spokojen. Mladostni boji so za njim, ravno tako pa tudi trenutki velikega veselja in zmage. Ostajajo mu le spomini na preteklost in pa modrost, ki jo lahko prinesejo le starejše leta.”
Molitev
Na televiziji sem slišala sledečo večerno molitev:
Ljubi Bog, bodi zahvaljen za današnji dan. Ni bil ravno najboljši, lahko bi pa bil še veliko slabši. Glava me je bolela, srce je nemirno poskakovalo — pa vse sem prestal.
V	križu me je trikrat zbodlo, po kostech mi je trgalo, v kolenih je škripalo — a samo, da sem še živ.
Slabo vidim, dobro ne slišim — pokoncu sem pa še vseeno. Težko hodim, s težavo se pripognem — drugače sem pa še kar alrijt.
Jesti ne smem vsega — pijem pa še vedno lahko, zlasti kako dobro vino.
Zvečer moram zobe ven djati in vzeti kak prašek, da lažje zaspim — a lepo se vležem v svojo gorko, mehko posteljo in sem popolnoma neodvisen od vsega sveta.
Moje ženka je sicer mala pokora, kor je večkrat sitna
—	a kako dolg čas bi bil brez nje! Srečen sem, da jo imam, da nisem sam na svetu!
Torej, ljubi Bog, če že ne more biti boljše z menoj, vsaj slabše naj ne bo. — Amen.

Mož je bil poklican pred sodnika, ker je ukradel pe-telina. Z njim je šel na sodišče sinček, ki bi naj bil za pričo.
Sodnik: “Fantek, zdaj boš zasilšan kot priča. Tvoj očka je obdolžen, da je ukradel pri sosedu črnega petelina, noče pa tega priznati. Ali ti kaj veš o tem?”
Sinček: “Nič mi ni znamo kako perje je petelin imel, ker ga je mama spekla brez perja.”
Veliki dan—Blagoslovitev slovenske kapele v Washingtonu, D. C 15. avgusta, 1971
Naš veliki praznik — blagoslovitev Slovenske kapele Marije Pomagaj — se nam kar hitro bliža. Zdaj je že čas, da se pričnemo pripravljati za ta veliki dan. Kdor se namerava udeležiti te redke slavnosti, naj pošlje svojo prijavo za rezervacijo hotela in drugo pravočasno. Ne odlašajte do zadnjega dne. Vse rezervacije za hotel in “package deal” pošljite naravnost v Washington na sledeči naslov:
Slovenian Chapel Dedication Committee, % Richard
Terselic, P. O. Box 6295, Washington, D. C. 20015
Park Sheraton hotel, ki lahko sprejme pod streho 3,000 oseb je v zelo lepem kraju. Cena sobam je: za 1 osebe $18.00; za 2 osebi $24.00 in za 3 osebe $27.00; otroci v spremstvu staršev so prosti. “Package deal” je $20.00 za osebo, če si to naročite pred 1. aprilom, pozneje pa bo $2'3.00.
Za teh $20.00 ali $23.00 boste dobili: 1.) vstopnico za banket, ki bo v soboto večer; 2.) ogled z busom po Washington; 3.) spominsko knjigo in znak (badge); 4.) prevoz z busom iz	hotela v	cerkev Brezmadežne	k blagosloviti in nazaj	v hotel.
Za potovanje od doma v Washington in nazaj domov pa se organizirajte po naelbinah in uredite tako, da boste v petek 13. avgusta popolden v Washingtonu!
Za Cleveland, Ohio in okolico bodo busi pobrali potnike na štirih krajih in sicer: West Park, Newburgh, St. Clair okolica	in na E.	185	St. za Euclid in okolico.
Cena za bus iz	Clevelanda v	Washington in	nazaj bo
$17.25 za osebo. Za rezervacijo na busu se obrnite na zatsopnika, kateri vam je najbližji. Za naslove teh prebelite poročilo gl. predsednice. To velja za Cleveland, Ohio in okolico.
Zelo razveseljivo in priporočljivo bi bilo, če bi vse naše državne predsednice in uradnice naših podružnic pričela akcijo za rezervacijo med članicami in prijatelji v svoji okolici. V resnici potrebujemo sodelovanje in pomoč vseh. Več podrobnosti bo poročanih še prihodnji mesec. Zasledujte poročila tudi v Ameriški Domovini in Amerikanskem Slovencu.
Na veselo svidenje pri Mariji Fomagaj v Washingtonu!

P. Klaude Okorn, O. F. M.:
OBSOJANJE DRUGIH
Nekega kitajskega državnika, ko je bil na obisku v Združenih državah Amerike, so vprašali:	Kaj mu je
prav posebej padlo v oči, ko se je nahajal tukaj?” Njegov odgovor je bil nenavaden in smešen. Njegov odgovor je bil:	“Njihove	poševne	oči”	Zanimivo.	Vse
zavisi od tega kdo opazuje koga in kako.
Neki možakar se je pritoževal: “Danes ne moreš nikomur več zaupat. Ravno včeraj, ko sem kupoval dnevni časopis, mi je stari možakar pri izmenjavi denarja, dal tudi ponarejen kvoter.” Prijatelj, ki mu je to zgodbo pripovedoval, mu je rekel, da bi rad videl, da mu pokaže tisti ponarejeni kvoter. Nezadovoljnež se je začel izgovarjati, da ga nima več. Pravil je kako ga je porabil včeraj, ko je kupoval cigarete. Kako smo ljudje čudni. Pritožujemo se na drugimi, delamo pa isto sami.
Pritoževanje lahko rečemo, da je splošna bolezen. Na žalost. Nekateri ljudje celo mislijo, da so pametni ker se znajo pritoževati. Nobena reč jim ni všeč. Godrn-njajo nad oblastjo, nad policijo, nad svojimi predpostavljenimi, nad učitelji, nad duhovniki, nad društvenim odborniki, nad vsem in vsakim, ima kaj za reči. Le premagovanje samega sebe bo zadržalo neljubeznive opazke in večinoma neopravičene opazke.
Nihče ni popolen. Prizadevamo si, da v dobrem napredujemo. Vendar se zdi, da tako hitro najdemo napake na drugih. Ni nam všeč njihova hoja, njihovo govorjenje, njihov način oblačenja, kako vozijo avtomobil, kako se obnašajo njihovi otroci. Vse nam je povod za zabavljanje. Grehe ljudi raztegnemo na dolgo in široko. Kadar nas tozadevno jezik srbi pomislimo na Jezusovo zadržanje. Pripeljali so grešnico, ki so jo zalotili v prešuštvu. Takole je rekel:	“Kdor	je	brez
greha, naj prvi vrže kamen nanjo.” Ko so to slišali so začeli odhajati, najprej starejši. Nihče ni vrgel niti enega kamna. Kakšen nauk. Pomislimo tudi mi.
DOPISI
Št. 2, Chicago, lil. — Kot nova poročevalka za drugo podružnico prav lepo pozdravljam vse članice SŽZ po širni Ameriki.. Tako majhno število vas poznam, pa upam, da se v bližnji bodočnosti srečamo in si podamo roke.
Na decembrskem sestanku, ki je bil povezan s prijazno božičnico smo izvolile sledeči novi odbor:	Mary
Muller,	predsednica;	Nežka Gaber,
podpredsednica; Fanika Humar, tajnica; Liz Zetran,	blagajničarka;
Corinne	Leskovar,	zapisnikarca;
Mitzi ICrapenc, Jennie Puhek in Lil Putzell,	nadzornice;	Luba Troha,
vratarica in Anna Zorko, kuharica. Določile smo tudi, da bomo imele redne mesečne sestanke in sicer vsak drugi četrtek v mescu. Postavile smo si cilj, da bi ti sestanki bili skrbno pripravljeni, s pestrimi programi, da tako pritegnemo novih članic in damo novega življenja naši organizaciji.
Z našo novo predsednico, Mamie, ki je polna idej in z njenim sposobnim odborom bomo ta cilj gotovo dosegle.
Kako delavne in polne organizacijskega duha so naše odbornice in nekatere članice se je že pokazalo pri božičnici za naše najmlajše. Obisk je bil lep, darila zelo primerno izbrana, razpoloženje domače, da so bili veseli vsi — starši in otroci. Hvala vsem, ki ste pomagale.
Tudi načrti za obisk Washingtona ob priliki blagoslovitve slovenske kapelice lepo napredujejo. Izredno pomemben spominski dan bo to za vse Slovence. Da bi se ga udeležili številni naši rojaki, da pokažejo ponos na svoje poreklo in se zahvalijo in priporočajo Mariji, naši nebeški Materi! Prav lep pozdrav vsem.
Krista Arko
Št. 10, Cleveland, Ohio. — Ko boste brale ta dopis bo že leto 1971 v tretjem mesecu. Želim, da bi leto zdrave in srečne preživele. Bog vas blagoslovi.

Sophie Magajna, zapisnikarica

Št. 14, Euclid, Ohio — Kako hitro gre čas; komaj so minili božični prazniki in se pripravljamo že za veliko noč. Postni čas je kratek, zato si naložimo nekaj pokore, to naj bo pri jedi, da se malo vzdržimo in tudi pri drugih stvareh, da si zaslužimo zveličanje svojih duš.

Št. 30, Aurora. 111. Uredništvo ima gotovo mnogo potrpežljivosti ker jaz nadlegujem z dopisi že nad 42 let, kar je dolga doba v življenju človeka. Veliko je bilo sprememb ali eno je ostalo po starem in to je prijaznost, in zvestoba članic Zveze. Od časa do časa dobim pohvalna pisma od članic, ki rade berejo novice iz Aurore.
V	januarju sem pa dobila kartico s 17 podpisi od članic št. 2, katero mi je poslala Mrs. Zibert. Oh, kako sem si želela biti med vami na seji. Toda moja usoda je, da nimam svojega človeka, ki bi me kam popeljal. Nahajam se v domu za ostarele, kjer lepo skrbijo za nas in obiski so tudi dobrodošli. Imamo lep dom v Au-rori. Večkrat imamo tudi prireditve, oziroma koncerte za zabavo.
Prav lepe pozdrave, Mrs. Zibert in vsem članicam Zveze!
Frances Kranjc, Jenning Terrace, Aurora, 111.
Št. 41, Cleveland, Ohio. V Clevelandu imamo mrzlo vreme in precej snega. Slabo vreme je bilo gotovo vzrok za maloštevilno udeležbo na zadnjih sejah. Upamo, da bo kmalu lepše in se boste udeležile.
Naša zvesta nadzornica Anna Videnšek in isto predsednica Mary Debevec sta bolni in se zdravita na svojih domovih. Isto tudi sestra Rose Kovačič, sestra Rose Strumbel boleha že par let in ne more nikamor. Prosim vse tiste, ki stanujete v bližini, da bi jo obiskale. Vsem bolnim želimo, da bi kmalu okrevale.
Za vedno smo se poslovile od sester Julie Wojnovich in Angele Maček. Bili sta vestni članici in ju bomo pogrešale. Naj blagi pokojni sladko snivati v naročju matere zemlje. Naj jima sveti večna luč!
V	Januarju in Febrauarju so naše zveste članice prispevale $38.50 v ročno blagajno. Imena so bila poročana na seji. Vsem najlepša hvala!
Po seji v januarju nas JE POGOSTILA za svoj rojstni dan sestra Ančka Skok. Želimo ji še mnogo zdravih obletnic ter najlepša hvala za pogostitev.
Pridite v lepem številu na prihodnjo sejo. Skušajmo dobiti kaj novih članic. Prisrčne pozdrave.
Ella Starin, tajnica
Dne 23. marca bo praznovala svoj rojstni dan amrljlva tajnica št. 41, Mrs. Ella Starin, 17814 Dillewood Road, Cleveland 44119. Želimo, da bi ji ljubi Bog podelil še mnogo zdravih let!	C.	L.

Št. 47, Cleveland, Ohio. — V decembru smo bile vse dni zaposlene s pripravami za božično sezono. Božičnico smo praznovale dne 6. decembra skupno z gospodinskim klubom S. D.
D.	na Prince Avenue. Kosilo sta nam pripravili Anna Kresevic in Jennie Bartel. Na mizo so nam pridno nosile dobrote naša Predsednica Jennie Gerk, Stela Mahnich, Mary Taucher in Ann Christofek. Vsem, ki ste v enem ali drugem, oziru prožile pomoč, prav lepa hvala za dobro izvršeno delo. Obiskal nas je Miklauž, ki je člnicam mladinskega oddelka razdelil darove, slaščice, katerih so bile zelo vesele. Starejše članice smo si izmenjale božična darila. Gos-podinski klub ima odsek skrivnih sester in tudi to se je izvršilo v lepem redu. Prepevale smo božične pesmi. Spomnile smo se na one, ki so pred časom se veselile z nami ter odšle prerano in zapustile ta svet in sedaj uživanjo nebeško veselje.
Letna seje se je vršila 10. januarja v S. N. D. v Maple Hgts. Odslej se bodo tam vršile naše seje. Odbornice so vse ostale na svojih mestih. Za častno mater je bila izvoljena podpredsednica Mary Sholar. Bila je vedno aktivna. Druge vrline bomo opisale v majski Zarji.
Dne 17. junija bo poteklo 40 let odkar je bila podružnica ustanovljena. To obletnico bomo praznovale 20. junija skupino z materinsko proslave v SNDomu v Maple Hgts., bomo i-mele kosilo za članice in njihove družine. Dne 27. junija se bomo udeležile svete maše v cerkvi sv. Lovrenca, ki bo darovana za žive in umrle članice to bo ob 11:30 dopoldne. Podrobnosti bodo objavljene pozneje.
Naša blagajničarka Antonija Dolinar je dne 1C. januarja praznovala svoj 75 letni rojstni dan. Ona je v odboru že od ustanoviteve ter je žrtvovala veliko časa in dela za korist podružnice. V imenu članic ji izrekam zahvalo in voščilo za god in rojstni dan. Bog ji daj zdravje še mnogo let in veselja v krogu njenih dragih!
Blagajničarka sestra Jennie Praznik, je bila ponesrečena z avtom, ko je šla preko ceste jo je voznik podrl in dobila je poškodbe na glavi. Želimo ji, da se kmalu pozdravi. V sem našim bolnim članicam pošiljamo pozdrave, da bi jim Bog dal ljubo zdravje v tem letu!
Hvala Mary Culkar, ki je v lepih besedah opisala “Remembering a Beautiful Day” v januarski Zarji. Ona se res zanima za obstoj slovenskih tradicij in kulturnega življenja. Družino je lepo vzgojila da so vsi dobri pevci in spadajo v pevski zbor Triglav. Njena vnukinja Sharon se je poročila 19. decembra 1970. Starši so Mr. in Mrs. Frank Culkar. Ženin je sin Mr. in Mrs. Frank Loucka. četitke staršem ter obilo sreče novim zakoncema.

Št. 84, New York City, N. Y. —
V	letu 1970 smo imele več nesrečnih slučajev. Dve sta umrli in štiri smo iskale zdravje po bolnišnicah. Sestra Tomšič je padla po stopnicah in si zlomila obe roki. Ivanka Svete je bila v bolnici deset tednov in 17. decembra sem morala jaz na o-peracijo. Hvala Bogu in Mariji Pomagaj, da se je srečno izšlo. Dne 10. januarja sta me hčerka Betty in zet vzela na njun dom, kjer sem zdaj že štiri tedne. Hčerka me je prišla vsako popoldne obiskat, čeprav je bilo silno mrzlo vreme in ima tri otroke. Ravno tako je prišel sin Stanley in žena, stanujejo 50 milj iz mesta in isto sin Frank in žena, ki stanujejo 40 milj daljave. Vsem sem iz srca hvaležna za ljubeznivost in obiske, kateri so zahtevali mnogo časa, ko so prišli v bolnišnico me obiskati. Bog vam plačaj za veliko zanimanje zame, kar mi je mnogo pomagalo, da sem hitreje okrevala.
Dva tedna pred Božičem je kap zadela sestro Ani Kepič in ji onemogla eno stran. To bo vzelo precej časa preden bo zdrava, ter bo s palico hodila.
Bog daj vsem odslej ljubo zdravje in upamo, da se skupaj snidemo na seji 12. maja to bo na Woodward in Madison v Wintergarden. Do takrat bo gotovo lepo vreme.
Iskrena hvala vsem, ki so mi poslali voščilne kartice ter me večkrat poklicali po telefonu. Vsem skupaj prisrčna hvala!
Pozdrav vsem članicam naše dične organizacije! Angela Voje, pred.
Št. 64, Kansas City, Kansas. — V

Mašo zadušnico je opravil sin in pri obredih je bil navzoč prezv. nad-škol Ignacij Strekal in tudi več drugih duhovnikov. Peli so šolski otroci pod vodstvom častite sestre Loretta in prednice sestre Margaret. Lepo so vsi izkazali zadnjo čast zaslužni pokojni.

Obiskala bosta tudi sorodnike po hrvatski pokrajni. Želimo, da bi imela prijetno potovanje ter isto srečen povratek med nas.

JUNIOR’S PA QE
III BOYS AND GIRLS!
God, the Creator of heaven and earth, “made the fishes and other creatures that were to live in the water. He also made birds and other creatures that were to fly in the sky . . . and all the animals that were to live on the ground.”
God’s animals frequently play an important role in the sayings of the prophets and in the parables that. Jesus used to make his teaching plain to his hearers.
The very first animal one hears of in the Bible is the serpent through which the devil tempted Eve. In obedience to God’s command Noah built an ark and into it he loaded two of every living animal. And after forty days Noah sent a dove who after the third time did not return to the ark.
When God tested Abraham to see whether he loved his son Isaac more than he loved God, God provided a ram for the sacrifice.
As Jonas the prophet was inside the whale for three days, so Christ was in the tomb for three days.
In the New Testament the first animals of importance were the animals in the stable of Bethlehem, wherein Jesus was bom. There were also the flocks of the Christmas sheperds and the camels of the kings.
At Capharnaum, following the catch of fishes,Jesus said to Simon and Andrew, John and James and others, “I will make you fishers of men.” In one of His parables, Jesus said, “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for his sheep .... I lay down My life for My sheep.”
For the Passover Feast Jesus came to Jerusalem riding a donkey, about whom G. K. Chesterton wrote the following poem:
“When fishes flew and forests walked And figs grew upon thorn,
Some moment when the moon was blood,
Then surely I was born;
With monstrous head and sickening cry
And ears like errant wings,
The devil’s walking parody On all four-footed things.
The tattered outlaw of the earth Of ancient, crooked will;
Starve, scourge, deride me:
I am dumb,
I	keep my secret still.
Fools! For I also had my hour;
One far fierce hour and sweet; There was a shout about my years, And palms before my feet.”
And lastly, there was the cock who crows as Christ foretold:	Be-
fore a cock crows, you will deny Me three times.
One of David’s psalms sings of Gods care of all creatures: In wisdom you have wrought them all—the earth is full of your creatures.
Your friend, REGINA
WHY THE ROBINS BREAST IS RED
James Ryder Randall
The Saviour, bowed beneath His Cross, climbed up the dreary hill, And from the agonizing wreath ran many a crimson rill;
The cruel Roman thrust Him on with unrelenting hand,
Till, staggering slowly 'mid the
crowd, He fell upon the sand.
A little bird that warbled near, that memorable day,
Flitted around and strove to wrench one single thorn away;
The cruel spike impaled his breast, —and thus ’tis sweetly said, The robin has his silver vest incarnadined with red.
Ah, Jesu! Jesu! Son of man, my dolor and my sighs Reveal the lesson taught by this winged Ishmael (outcast) of the skies;
I,	in the palace of delight or cavern of despair.
Have plucked no thorns from Thy dear brow, but planted thousands there!

You can make this delightful toy for your favorite youngster from fabric scraps left over from your other cotton bag gifts. You’ll also need matching thread, balls of cosmetic cotton, and beans for filler.
Roll two cotton balls into a tight circle and cover with white fabric for the clown’s head. Draw facial features with crayon.
Cut pieces using solid color fabric for cap, hands, feet, and ruffle, with the body of two contrasting prints. Stitch together two fabric j)ieces for each hand and foot. This double thickness will give them extra body.
With right sides of the fabric together, stitch together print pieces at center seam of clown’s body. Place hands and feet in positions facing toward the center of the body. They will extend outward when fabric is turned. Stitch around outside edges, leaving top open for insertion of beans. Turn body inside out, fill with beans, and gather the top. Baste head to body. Attach neck ruffle and cap.
