Vendar pa se strinjava z Molkom glede 30. točke pravil SNPJ, namreč da je potrebno imeti tako točko v pravilih,- da se lahko opreš nanjo. Nekoč sem imel pred seboj pi-meno odločitev glavnega izvršnega odseka, v kateri je nagla«-tel principe jednote. Nasprotniki pa so vzHc temu hoteli izvajati predlog, ki je bil v nasprot-stvu z načeli naše jednote. Da bi imeli tako točko v pravilih, bi se imeli na kaj opirati. Zopet pozneje je bilo iz neke naselbine predloženo glavnemu odboru kršenje načel.' Glavni odbor je sprejel, toda če bi bili tam sitneži, bi ga prav lahko o-vrgli, ker take prepovedi ni v Dravijih. In tako je z našimi oublikacijami. Kar ni v pravi-ih, odloča glavni odbor po svd- 1 razsodnosti in previdnosti, tola dostikrat se zgodi, da ie previdnost razdvojena. Če pa bi bila taka točka v pravilih, potem se jo mora upoštevati. Ko so nasprotniki demokracije čitali besedo "ameriška" v Mol ko ve m amendmentu 36, točke pravil SNPJ, jim je kar ;apo zaprla. Ako bi priporočal »nako revizijo 36. točke kateri izmed nasprotnikov, bi jo prav isti, ki so sedaj proti, podpirali i obema rokama! sadnemu J Pašičevi ulici na četrto nad-' stropje ameriškega konzulata." .Vidite, rojaki, kako prav pride včasi ameriška demokracija! Ti. Clevelandčan je bil jzobra-žen v Jugoslaviji in Paveličev ustaš ga je hotel skalpirati, toda njegove ume noge, poleg tega pa ameriška demokracija, sta ga rešili, da ima vse lase na glavi, če nima pleše, kot jo ima vaš dopisnik. Ne ozirajte se na tisto pesem namreč da 'ameriški časopisi in kapitalisti izrabljajo demokracijo. Mi vemo. da jo, toda tudi vemo, da delavci velikokrat izrabljajo delavske principe, prav tako bratje krše razne točke pravil. Prav tako vemo, da se nekateri stari člani pritožujejo, ker piso upoštevene njihove pritožbe, ki bi po mnenju mnogih morale biti. In naša jednota ni kapitalistična, temveč delavska. Avtor, k* je pred nas predložil revizijo 36. točke pravil, bi bil J. julija 30 let urednik. Kakšno je njegovo plačilo? Govorice se širijo o njegovi trmi, nihče pa ga ne vpraša, kaj bo jedel. Takšna so narodna plačila! Frank Barbič. O DOMU ZA STARE ČLANE IN DRUGEM Milwaukee. Wis. — Koliko je med nami še članov, ki se spominjamo dogodka, namreč ko smo imeli pred 30 leti splošno glasovanje, ali naj jednota postavi dom za stare člane ali prične izdajati list dnevnik. Takrat smo bili še mladi in smo mislili, da je za dom še dovolj časa, zato smo glasovali za list. Da smo tedaj storili veliko napako, smo se pričeli zavedati šele pozneje. Če bi glasovali za dom, bi ga danes imeli, dnevnik pa bi dobili nekaj let pozneje in tako bi imeli oboje. Kako velika bi bila privlačnost za jednoto in korist za stare Člane, ako bi imeli dom z veliko kmetijo, kot je bilo takrat zasnovano! O t em smo precej Mole prišlo je, naj ne bi Wavljali pred približne>121 le »dali "ameriška" in ostane le n Prepričan sem, če, bi bile rt* in ™ • «> kradle 1 * mJT J" prii,° * bmuZiZ1* 40 * dodali "ameriška 'demokracija," kajti demokracija ni ameriška ne angleška ne poljska, ampak je mednarodna n Titova Jugoslavija jo rabi v istih, če so ti pravilno pretiska-ii v naše revolucionarne liste. Tam večkrat ponavljajo besedo 'demokracija." Torej kar je dobro za gos, naj bo še za gosja-'ia in tako ostane kozb cela in volk sit. Če pride pozneje do vprašanja, kaj je demokracija, bomo pa poklicali na pomoč Civil Liberties Union iz New Yorka, da nam raztolmači demokracijo, ki je starejša kot mi in bo še živela, ko ne bo ne nas in ne kraljev z diktatorji vred. Mi smo člani CLU, da brani našo demokracijo. Torej predlagam, da se ne sprejme v 36. točko pravil -ameriška"! Ali potrebtriem podporo? Črta naj se tudi sledeče besedilo: "Uredništvo in drugi člani lahko priporočajo politične kandidate v Prosveti ob volitvsh le tedaj, kadar to dovoli glavni odbor." Oglašanje političnega kandidata ni dovoljeno v oglasu, ki bi bil plačan. Dovoljeno pa mi je, da ga zastonj priporočam in prav tako ga sme priporočati urednik, če tako dovoli glavni odbor. Naši Clevelandčani bodo prišli s svojimi demokrati ter kolektali za "delavske" prijatelje, lz drugih naselbin bodo priporočali svoje "delavske prijater Ije," sod rug Brfewn bo zahteval pravico oglaševanje "eselpistov" in tako bo nastals velika konfu-sijs ter udrihanje po drugih delavskih kandidatih, kajti tudi republikanci bodo "delsvski." Pred lags m črtanje omenjenegs besedila. Kdo podpira? Ostalo priporočam, da se sprejme in za-eno predlagam v tem smislu. Kdo podpira? Če Je moi "brother" Alesh s tem zadovoljen In enako avtor 36 točke pravil, potem ie kom oromls izvršen vršila 5. maja, Na dnevnem redu bo volitev delegata za 13, redno konvencijo, zato je potrebno, da sle vsi navzoči!

Naslov na vsa, kar ima stik s listomt PROSVETA 2657-59 So. Lawndale Ave,, Chicago 23, Illlnola "Za pouk in kratek čas' Vremena niso samo meglena, kot pravi br. Molek na drugem mestu, marveč so mršava—za "scagat", Toda ne radi kakšnih zmešnjav pri Prosveti, ki se drži svojih starih tradicionalno delavtkih smernic, marveč vsled tega, ker so nekateri (socialisti) pozabili, kaj so kdaj učili io propagirali. Sedanji urednik Prosvete se ne bo nič opravičeval zg svoje proti-vojno stališče. Na eni strani sovraži vojno iz dna duše in jo smatra za največji kolektivni barbarizem človeštva, na drugi strani se je pa vsaj toliko naučil iz življenja, da ne naseda na lepe, toda prazne fraze in obljube, katerih se poslužujejo visoki državniki, da lažje poženejo mase v klavnico. Tudi v zadnji vojni je bilo tako. Na eni strani so visoki politiki in njih trobentači zagotavljali očete in matere, da njih sinovi ne bodo poslani na bojne poljane, na drugi strani so pa z vso ailo in na vse machiavelske načine vlekli deželo v vojno, ne da bi imeli kakšne konstruktivne politične načrte za poraz fašizma, za sanacijo Evrope na demokratični federalni podlagi in brez vsakega načrta za svetovni mir. Vse to se danes bridko maščuje nad Ameriko in vsem svetom, še veliko bolj pa bi se maščevalo, da ni Hitler napravil svoje usodne zmote in napadel Rusije. Ako bi ne bil napravil te kardinalne zablode, kdo more reči, da bi danes ne bil gospodar vse Evrope in tudi Ameriki diktiral mir? Drvenje v skoraj siguren poraz gotovo ni bila nobena modrost ali dalekovidnost. Da ni prišlo do tega in do popolne nemške zmage, je predvsem zasluga Hitlerjeve megalomanije, ker je napadel Rusijo, svojo posili "prijateljico". Šele tedaj je sedanji urednik spremenil svoje stališče glede vojne, kajti z napadom na Rusijo je prišel prvi žarek upanja za poraz Hitlerja In oslšča. Toda nikomur se ni takrat sanjalo, da bodo potrebni tako gfgantični napori s strani vseh treh velesil za poraz Hitlerja. Če bi Roosevelt takrat imel kakšen konstruktiven program za evropsko federacijo in demokratičen ter pravičen mir po vojni, bi danes ne bilo tega trenja med veliko trojico in angel miru bi se vfcselejše spreletaval med narodi. Ampak kdo se je takrat brigal za tako prozaične stvari kot je formuliranje in propagiranje polUjfitiih mirovnih pogojev kot pogoj za ameriški vstop v, vojno? Nihče! Intervencionisti na desni in levi sir slepo drveli za predsednikom in pomagali potiskati deželo v vojno, izolacionistl na desni in levi pa so prav tako slepo nasprotovali temu, kar je moralo neizbežno priti. Slepota na obeh straneh. (Pisec teh vrstic lahko reče, da ni bil udarjen s to slepoto, toda njegove besede niso štele.) Da v zadnji vojni ni prišlo do fašizma v tej deželi—do potepta-nja civilnih svobodščin za druge kot za 120,000 Japoncev na za padni obali—je vzrok v tem, ker vlada ni imela te potrebe. In imela je ni, ker je nu dan Pearl Harborja izginila vsaka opozicija proti vojni in dežela je bila strnjena tako solidno kot še nikdar prej. Če bi ne bilo tega stupidnega napada na Pearl Harbor s strani Japoncev, marveč bi bila napadalka Amerika, na katero mož nost se je vlada tudi pripravljala, kakor je pred senatnim odsekom za preiskavo Pearl Harborja razkril bivši državni tajnik Hull, tedaj bi bila drugačna pesem. V tem primeru bi bila dežela ostala več ali manj razklana in v koncentracijskih taboriščih bi se bili poleg Japoncev znašli tudi nasprotniki vojne, kajti vlada bi ne trpelo opozicije To je "logistika" vsake totalne vojne. Ampak Molek računa morda le na dobre" duše na visokih vladnih pozicijah, ne na razmere! Sveta naffnost! ... , V šolo naivnosti spada tudi Molkova "definicija" ameriške de mokracije—to namreč, ako se zanjo ne skriva kaj drugega. Ne koč Je nekdo dejal: "Patriotism is the last refuge of every scoundrel." Znano vsekakor je, da z zastavo radi mahajo oni, ki jim zmanjka argumenta In hočejo na ta način nekoga ugnati v kozj tog. Zdi se nam, da tudi br. Molek vihti zastavo v ta iiumen. On se sicer ne zateka k ameriški zastavi, marveč k ameriški demo kraciji. Ta izraz, ako se rabi kot splošno označbo ameriške kapitalistične civilizacije, je na mestu; prav tako je na mestu, ako se rabi kot pojm skupne sume ameriških demokratičnih tradicij, ki sp velike lepe in dinamične In katere je Proaveta vedno zagovarjala In čislala kot največje vrednote, kakor jih tudi danes in jih bo v bodoče. Ampak izraz "ameriška demokracija" služi mnogim za povsem druge namene. Tipičen "free enterpriser" razume pod to besedo —ameriški kapitalizem, profitarski mate m. V ustih »toprocentneža pomeni ta izraz—blgotatvo, v ustih južnih burboncev politično dominacijo "belega" človeka. Izgled«, da bi s pomočjo teh par be sed tudi br. Molek iz nas rad napravil nekakšne stoprocentneže ki naj se ne brigamo za dogodke v starem kraju, marveč jih za mrzimo do kosti, posebno pa njih ljudski*,, (Klnosno—"kooomuni stično" vlado. če Je br Krapenc na omenjenem sestanku omenil, "naj ima bodoča Jugoalavija tako obliko vlade kot je anicrt&ka." ni to nobe na voda na Molkov mlin, kajti s tem je mudil-republiko. In to vladno obliko a^ m v Jugoslaviji tudi priborili oni, na katere br. Molek sipi je žveplo in ogenj.

To obletnico bodo gotovo impozantno praznovali tudi naši bratje in sestre v starem kraju. Morda jo bodo praznovali 9. maja, ko e bila osvobojena Ljubljana— najbrže pa na isti dan kot mi, kajti nedelja je najbolj primerna za take proslave. Kako so lani praznovali osyobojenje Ljub-jane, smo lahko videli na filmu istega imena, ki je prišel iz starega kraja. Čikaški Slovenci imamo zadnja leta vsaj eno ali dve priredbi na leto za pomoč staremu kraju. Do zdaj smo zbirali v re-ifni sklad in zbrali precej čedno vsoto, kajti vse priredbe so bile uspešne. Prepričani smo, da bo tudi ta priredba 12. maja uspešna, kajti ves preostanek bo Šel v sklad za zgradnjo otroške bolnišnice v Sloveniji. Priredba bo torej v zelo plemenit namen, za katerega se rad odzove vsak ro-ak ali rojakinja. Prvo obletnico osvobojenja starega kraja bomo praznovali primernim programom. Nekaj pevskih točk bo podal moški zbor France Prešeren, ki je imel zadnjo nedeljo uspešen koncert, v solospevih pa bo nastopila mrs. Louise Kelemenič iz Garyja, katere nismo slišali v Chicagu že več let, dasi je izborna pevka. Nekaj privlačnega bo zopet po--dal mladinski krožek SNPJ, ki poseduje dobre talente in izbor-no vodstvo. Glavni govornik bo Etbin Kristan, ki je kljub svoji visoki starosti po duhu in v govorništvu še vedno poln mlade-niškega ognja. Velika možnost e, da bomo slišali tudi Nado fCraigherjevo in dr. Neubauerja iz starega kraja. Oba zastopnika Jugoslovanskega rdečega kri« ža imata ob koncu prihodnjega tedna priti v Chicago, in če se to zgodi—ako načrti ne unesejo bosta oba posetila našo priredbo. . Drugo nedeljo v maju se torej vsi čikaški in okoliški Slovenci zberimo v dvorani SNPJ in skupno proslavimo osvobojenje starega kraja, kjer zdaj z enako energijo in elanom grade novo Jugoslavijo kot so se skozi štiri leta borili za svobodo in oveko-večili v svoji nesmrtni borbi. Pi <»gram se prične ob treh popoldne in vabljeni ste vsi. Odbor. ske naselbine sicer zaostajajo za drugimi, vendar pa bodo morale vse prispevati svoj delež, če ne bodo hotele, da bodo nosile pečat slabega imena. V Sloveniji imajo danes samo 12 bolnišnic, kar je zelo malo v primeri s prebivalstvom, ki je posebno sedaj, po strahotnem štiriletnem trpljenju, zelo podvrženo fizičnim in mentalnim boleznim. Potrebno je, da čim prej zberemo določeno vsoto za zgradnjo otroške bolnišnice! Tudi v Chicagu smo na delu za staro domovino. V nedeljo, 12. maja, pa se bo vršila velika prireditev v dvorani SNPJ, katere čisti dobiček bo oddan v fond za otroško bolnišnico. Imeli bomo lep popoldanski program, zvečer pa ples in prosto zabavo. Na programu bodo nastopili pevski zbor Prešeren, mladinski krožek SNPJ, pevka Louise Ahčin - Kelemenič iz Garyja, Ind., kot govornik pa Etbin Kristan, predsednik orgsnizacije SANS. Priredbeni odbor bo skušal tudi dobiti Nado Kraigherjevo, katera še ni nobenkrat nastopila med čikaškimi Slovenci. Torej, Člkažani, v nedeljo, 12. maja, se gotovo vidimo na priredbi čikaških podružnic SAN-Sa. Pomnite, da boste s svojo navzočnostjo pomagali trpečemu slovenskemu narodu v stari domovini.

Chicago. 111. — V dobi med prvo in drugo svetovno vojno je bil naš narod v Zedinjenih državah precej indiferenten do stare domovine, mnogi naši rojaki niao imeli skoro nobenih vezi svojimi sorodniki in ljubezen do rodne grude je tlela le globoko v notranjosti. Za to raz merje med rojaki iz novega in starega sveta je bilo mnogo vzrokov, ki jih ne bom tu opisoval. Toda danes je temu drugače.

Pojdimo vsi na delo in prispevajmo po svojih močeh. Vsak dolar je dobrodošel! Otroška bolnišnica bo priča bodočim generacijam, da niso ameriški Slovenci pozabili svojih bratov in sester v najkritičnejši uri. Prispevke lahko izročite spodaj podpisanemu. Zaeno vljudno vabim članstvo društva Jan Hus 321 SNPJ, da rs Št. 100 SNPJ priredi majsko veselico dne 18. maja v prostorih na 10413 S. Michigan ave., 'u Toivo IThaytr Stiisrt G. I Tucker William C..

Pa. — Pozivam člane društva 101 SNPJ, da se v polnem številu udeležite prihodnje seje dne ft. maja ob pol dveh popoldne. Skltp društva je, kdor se ne udrl«-ii, se b*) * njim postopalo po pravilih. Izvzeti Euclid, O.—Članstvo društva Cvetoči Noble št. 450 SNPJ jc vljudno vabljeno, da se v polnem številu udeleži prihodnje seje 12. maja v Slovenskem društvenem domu na Recher ave. Seja je važna za slehernega člana, kateremu sta društvo in jednota količkaj pri srcu, ker volili bomo delegatu za 13. redno konvencijo. V aprilu je naše društvo izgubilo dva člana. Dne 12. aprila je umrla Anna Mencin v starosti 72 let. Bila je rahlega zdravja že veliko let. Dne 10. aprila pa je umrl Anton ŽnidaršiČ v starosti 54 let. Obema časten spomin! Mary Dpdlc, tajnics. vprašanje za razmišuevanje Najbrže ne bi škodilo, če bi imeli nekoliko razprave pred bližajočo se konvencijo glede vprašanja, kako članstvo—posebno po večjih mestih in naselbinah—poučiti do boljše zavesti plačevanja mesečnih prispevkov in če se to ne doseže, kaj potem? Resnica je, da se člani vedno manj zanimajo za društvene seje, posebno drugih narodnosti, katere smo pridobili v zadnjih kampanjah in tako tudi vedno manj za plačevanje mesečnih prispevkov. Brez dvoma so mnogi med omenjenimi računali, ko so prišli v društvo ter organizacijo, da se bo že društvo potrudilo, ko pride čas za plačanje mesečnih prispevkov, da jih opozori ali pride kdo pobrati ases-ment. Koder se ni zgodilo ne eno ali drugo, tak član ni plačal asesmenta in posledica je bila črtanje. To dejstvo je ugotovljeno na podlagi zaiu-sljivih informacij, katere smo prejeli od društev, koder je bilo večje število Črtanih, v Nihče pa ne ntare pričakovati od naših tajnikov, da bodo hodili od hiše do hiše in pobirali sleherni mesec asesment od članov, ali jih vedno opozarjali, ker tako delo more vršiti samo oni, čigar plača je tako visoka, da se tak posel smatra za življenski poklic. Kot na primer zastopniki velikih komercialnih zavarovalninskih družb. Naši tajniki pa morajo vršiti poleg svojega rednega dela v tovarni, rudniku itd. še tajniške posle v času, ko so potrebni počitka, vsled česar se ne more od njih pričakovati ali zahtevati ne-kai nemogočega. Čeravno je način našega poslovšnja—plačevanje mesečnih prispevkov lokalnemu tajniku—najbolj v skladu in soglasju s principi bratske podporne organizacije, moramo radi ali neradi priznati, da to načelo polagoma, toda v splošnem med našimi podpornimi organizacijami peša. Mlajše generacije in posebno še tujci vidijo malo ali nič razlike med kooperativno bratsko podporno organizacijo in privatno zavarovalninsko družbo. Vsa tu vzgojena ameriška živelj je tako prepojena z materialističnim individualiz-mom, ko ne bo več tajnikov priseljencev, ker smrt jim ne prizanaša, ne bo nikogar ali zelo malo onih, ki bi kaj storili s stališča idealizma, kot delajo oni. Vsled tega je potrebno, da se na to pripravljamo ie sedaj, če tudi stvar še ni opasna, ker boljše je biti pripravljen, kot da nas čaH dohiti nepripravljene. Treba je misliti ali razpravljati, če bi ne bilo umestno, uko bi konvencija dala pravico izvršnemu ali glavnemu odboru, da bi v slučaju potrebe in koristi za jednoto imel pravico določiti posebno odškodnino tajniku ali tajnikom v krajih, koder bi razmere zahtevale več akcije v že omenjenem oziru. Ožji načrt bi lahko v to svrho izdelal izvršni odsek in odločtl potrebno odškodnino. Dasi sem osebno naklonjen sedanjemu sistemu našega poslovanja v društvih, oziroma pri plačevanju asesmenta, sem za gotove spremembe, ker vidim, da bodočnost ne obeta nič posebnega v tem oziru, izvzemši če bi prišle splošne socislne spremembe v tej deželi, za kar je pa malo upanja. Ako se članstvu vidi ta sugestija prerana za našo jednoto, je gotovo, da se tega vprašanja ne bo nI-lilo v ospredje na konvenciji; ako je potreba že tu, na kar bodo najlažje odgovorili tajniki, potem je dobro, da se prej pomenimo. a a a ' Bratje in sestre! Pred vami so baš sedaj tudi prošnje za otroško bolnišnico v Sloveniji, v katerih je opisan položaj naših bratov in sester v stari domovini in katerim ni potreba kaj posebnega dodajati. Znano nam Je vse, kaj Je jugoslovansko in slovensko ljudstvo doprineslo v času zadnje vojne, in če hočemo ohraniti bodočo generacijo, potem moramo pomagati finančno kolikor je v naših močeh, da se ta humanitarna institucija čimprej postavi, Kličejo in prosijo nas starši nedolžnih sirot, prosijo nas tudi bolni otročlčl sami, da jim priskočimo na ppmoč in Jim tako pomagamo do povrnitve zdravja, od katerega je odvisna vsa njihova bodočnost.

The idea to organize juvenile units within our Society was adopted st the 1937 convention and the first units were formed , the following year. In the very first year more than a dozen units were orgsnized. Then came the war years and the progress of our units wss retarded because many of our young leaders were either in the armed forces or working long hours in war plsnts. But now the war is over snd our young people are back home, msny of them eager and willing to resume their fraternal activities. 9 Realizing, as we should, that our juvenile units are an important feature of our Society'! lodge system, it is necessary that we give more sttention to this, our newest institution. It is our duty to help maintsin, organize and expand the work of these units. We sll know thst our Juvenile Circles can become vital pillars of the SNPJ. There is no sound argument against their existence; on the contrary, every argument substantiates the fact that they have a very prominent place in our fraternalism. The relation of the juvenile units to our Society has been manifested repeatedly in a number of instances. We can say that those lodges and federations which have tried and succeeded in forming and maintaining a juvenile unit, have fully grasped their importance. . * * * THOSE ACTIVE LODGES and federations that are sponsoring circle activities have shown that the ties between the lodge and circle have bgcproe genuinely strong as a result Moreover, they have shown that the youngsters are willing and eager to cooperate. The main requirement of a lodge in this undertaking is to furnish capable leadership and to maintain an active and friendly interast in the venture. Through Juvenile Circles the youngsters not only learn the true meaning of our Society's mission, but they also actively participate in the many lodge sponsored programs, thereby making such events • living thing. The benefits so derived by the Society are shared by the children. All this and much more can be achieved through active juvenile circles. But are we doing our full duty in this respect? Are we forming drcles in sufficient number in proportion to the number of our lodges operating within the jurisdiction of the SNPJ? The ?&-odd actve circles now on the roster as against more than 000 lodges prove that we are not performing our work in the juvenile field as we should. Right now is the time to begin organizing new circles. We must revive the dormant circles as well as form new ones where none exist, and in this work our English speaking lodges can be of especially great service. * * * THERE IS NO GETTING AWAY FROM the fact that children the world over like entertainment, to which they are entitled to the fullest extent under proper guidance. Of course, toe much cannot be expected of them at first, but gradually the purpose of tl^&r organisation can be stressed. Simple, wholesome food is needed for the building up of their bodies; likewise, simplicity should be the keynote In building up their formative minde. Meetings and socials, sthletic activities snd educational programs along progressive cultural lines should be the msin features. To be sure, care should be taken ln not promising them something we cannot fulfill. Let's not forget that they feel that they are responding voluntarily and that they will resent any forceful obligation. A form of self-discipline should be cultivated for the purpose of obtaining good results. The spproachtng Mother's Day observsnce Is one of the best opportunities to bring the juveniles together by srrsnging suitable programs under the banner of the SNPJ. Our English speaking lodges are in position to influence the juveniles more than the elder members primarily because of their closer interests as well as becauae of language ties. There is no better way to interest the young people In lodge affairs than an sctive Juvenile Circle. Therefore, let's begin now! We will ftnd the children responsive to the programs sponsored and promoted especially for them! city southpaw chsmpionship, Tony Obluck finished 6th in s field of 81.

Mr. Louis PekoL now deceased, who was st that time Sec'y of Lodge 47, first eslled s group of young peonle together in the upper hall of the old Dom, and helped them to get orgsnized into a lodge of their own. He met with them, not just once but several times, and only when they were strong enough to go on their own did he lesve them. Some of these young people were from Lodge 47, some from Lodge 184, and a few had not belonged to any lodge until this time. The charter members as listed on the charter dated March 20, 1826, were as follows: Johsnns Aubel, Joe G. Brinocar. Amelia Church, Leo Dollar, Albina Furlick, Amelia Furlick, Edmund Gorsek, Stanley Gorsek, John Kersr, Katherine Kla-sinz, Ella Lah, Frank Patia, James Pstia, Rose Push, Alfred Spangen-burg and Mary Spangenburg. Some of these people hsve transferred to other lodges, some have left the SNPJ, and one member, Katherine Klasinsc Copi, h a 4, rejoined during the present membership campaign. Four members only remsinod in the lodge all twenty years, nsmely, John Kerar, Amelia Furlick Gray, Albina Furlich Hammitl, and Joe G. Brinocar. The officers chosen to guide this new lodge thru its first year were: President, Jsmes Patia, who served until September of the same ysar when he left Springfield to attend Teacher's College st Racine, Wis.; Vice President, Joe O. Brinocar. who took over the president's office in Sept.; Fin. Sec'y, Amelia Church; Rec. Sec'y, Amelia Furlick. The next year a treasurer and an auditing committee were added. About six months after the lodge was organised a membership campaign was held. The Lincolnite lodge grew steadily for several years. Many good times were had by these young people and many activities were enjoyed. At one time the Links had a softball team which boasted 20 players. There was also a basketball team that even went out of town for games. There was also a girls' bowling team at one time, which needs re-reviving. Som« of the happiest times thst were enjoyed by these young people, we sre told, were the times when the Links made trips to visit the affairs of other lodges. Probably the most outstanding of these waa the time a truckload of them went to visit the Pioneers snd attend their picnic in Chicago. Another memorable occasion waa when a smaller group made a trip to St. Louis and visited the Spirits. Things were going slong fine for this new lodge, fourth among the Bng. Speaking lodges of the SNPJ (only the Pioneers of Chicago. Young Americans of Detroit, and Comrades of Cleveland preceded us In organizing) until the depression struck. It hit our lodge hard as it did almost every other one in the Society. In s few years the membership dropped to about half of what it wss st it« pesk. For several years things looked i pretty dark. Only a few members were attending the meetings, and the treasury was almost nil. How-ever, in the last few yoars the Lincolnite lodge hss msde many gain«.

Probably the most important step that has been taken by our lodge is the sponsoring of a Juvenile Circle. Lately it haa been growing in numbers steadily and has become most important to our young folks. They aro interested in its activities and we will do well to keep them Interested, remembering alwavs that the juvenile members o( todav will be our adult members of the future. If we csn do as well in the next few years ss we have in the past several, then perhaps the next twenty years will show st lesst as much progress as the last twenty, perhaps more.

The admission, including tax charges, is 50 cents per person. A hearty invitation is extended to everyone to come and spend a few enjoyable hours at the Trailblazers* social. • • » This weekend three carloads of Trailblazers will motor to Milwaukee to participate in the SNPJ midwest Bowling Tournament at the Silver City Recreation. Two teams will represent the lodge in this sectional classic. The Trailblazers have done very little bowling during the past three or four years, and so are not optimistic about their chances of bringing home any of the "baoon" this time. Their slogan now ij "Build for tomorrow," and this 2 evidenced by the strong talk among the members to reorganize the old prewar league for the 1046-47 season. If that happens, and we are p/etty sure it will, you can be certain that the bowlers will improve with prkctice and be ready to give some of the better teams in the district a run for honors next year. • • • The delegate, who will be chosen to represent the Trailblazers at the 13th regular convention at Eveleth, Minn., next August, will be voted on at the June meeting. At the same time an alternate will be elected. This was the decision of the members at the April session. , .

A total of 47 teams « doubles and 112 singles have been entered, setting a new lecorTji • This tourney will be staged at the Silver City Recreation Alleys, 3730 W. National Ave., Milwaukee, Wis., this Friday, Saturday and Sunday, May 3-4-5. After much hard work the schedules were finally completed, copies pf which have been forwarded to team captains and lodge secretaries. It must be understood that the committee tried to arrange the schedule of the Midwest Tournament to the best of its ability and to satisfy everyone involved. As chairman of the tournament I would like to asir each and everyone to cooperate with MS by bowling when you are scheduled to do so. Anyone, who has ever conducted an affair such as this, knows what I am trying to express. An entire cooperation is necessary in order to assure a successful tournament. We want to thank each lodge for the wonderful cooperation they have given. The number of team entries exceeded our highest expectations. However, many of the entries were late and that is the reason for the delay in drawing up and submitting the schedules. We urge everyone who is bowling in this tournament to be on time. The tournament, if it is to run on schedule, depends entirely on the bowlers—so be at the alleys at least thirty minutes early to report your line-ups. Full csedit must be given to our little secretary from the Badgers for the way shs worWd on this tournament. It was s "must" ss far as she was concerned, and thus the reason for such a large entry (13 teams) from the Badgers (584), our neighbor lodge. Other lodge secretaries de- serve a vote of thanks (or theiJ splendid cooperation. However we were much disappointed in the nun ber of entries for the juvenile divl sion. We had counted on receivmi at least five or six entries, but oi* is all we got. We must cungrata late Perfect Circle 26 of Chicago being the lone entry, although i are sorry for the lack of competi tion which would make it mud more interesting for them. We remind you again that tfc tournament will begin Friday nigh at 7 o'clock, and will contua* through Sunday, May 5.' Three day are necessary for the event due t< the large number of entries. Thea too, don't forget that there will bi a dance held in conjunction with this affair. This will take place a the K & P hall, located at 19th an National, on Saturday evening, May 4. The music will be furnished by the Bevsek and company orchestra, so a real Slovenian gathering should be in the making. Everyone is invited. Oh, yes, th? famous Slovenin menu of klobase and potica will alio be served to your liking. There you are, folks, all you hav« to do is come around and make merry. It should be a grand affair. The committee has been hard at wort and we are sure you won't be du-uppointed. I wish to remind "Salty," that all this is being done by that "little city" up yonder, West Allis. So until tomorrow, 1 mwt say good luck and may the bed team win. ANTON KOSTANJEVEC JR. Chairman SNPJ Midwest Bowling Tournament. * Morning Stars * PITTSBURGH, PA —The coming summer months will bring out of hibernation a good many of our members that were kept out of circulation by ol' Man Winter. It's the wish of this writer, as well as of your respective lodge secretaries, to see more of you at the lodge meetings. Quit making excuses why you cant attend, as you should be past that stage. An active lodge depends upon its active membership, and that's where your cooperation comes in, in order to make every lodge activity a real success. Too many depend on too few, whereby the majority of the work ties up those few, and keeps them swsy from their owp work. Let's pitch in, and quit trying to go through life the easy way.

Javenile Circles of tin SNPJ 27 Official Proceedinsg Perfect Circle No. 26 April Meeting and Social CHICAGO.—Saturday, April 27, Perfect Circle had a short business meeting followed with a social hour. Dissensions concerning The Voice of Youth took place. Three of the younger boys have contributed to the magazine every month. Also many members from the older group have submitted articles every month. After viewing the winning Circle champs score, we felt that our -^ores weren't too bad. For most of us, bowling had been with us only for one month. We are planning to continue bowling next fall so that next year our scores can be even better than Uiey were this year. Eight of the older members are planning to participate in the Midwest Bowling Tournament scheduled for May 5, and let's hope that something good happens. A few of the Circle members participated in the Prešeren spring concert April 28. Mrs. Tichy, one of our Circle member's mother, contributed articles which she had from the Chicago World's Fair in 1934. Among the articles were small und large keys, pencils, pons, erasers, and mats of different sizes. These articles were given out by means of each person having a number. All in all, everyone got something, Rosemary Merhant brought balloons and bubble gum. These were distributed by ages numbering from 5 to 10. At this moment mouths were chewing vigorously and bul-loons were popping in the air. Since Joann Rak was 10 years old her mother planned a party for the members, serving lovely chocolate cup cakes and ice*cream. We sung her a happy birthday song and wished her good luck for her coming years. » Then we all did what we wanted to, such as ping pong, singing and playing the^iiano, and our favorite volleyball game with a balloon. The meeting seeped more like a joyous party than anything else. We would like to thank every one who contributed for enjoyment for each and everyone of us. GRACE ANN GERDANC.

Lisch Poklar Juvenile National Bowling Champiom During the tame weekend that the regular National Bowling Tournament of the SNPJ wa» staged at Cleveland, Ohio, approximately seventy-five juvenile bowlers vied for championship honors and trophies in their own class on hometown alleys in Strabane and Sharon. Pennsylvania . in Girard, Ohio and in Waukegan. and Chicago, Illinois. They had the time of their young Uvea shellacking the pins with amazing accuracy in the second annual SNPJ Juvenile Telegraphic Bowling Tournament. The resulla of all five local juvenile tournaments have been reported by their respective secretaries. From the official score sheets and other records received from them, we have drawn up a list of the 1940 championa and, also, the standinga of all thr teams and the leading bowlers in each of the individual events. In checking and comparing results we find that the moat spectacular performance in thia year's juvenile telegraphic tourney was given by the boys representing Circle 21 of Sharon, Pa. They blasted llvt maples in real championship style for thf grand total of 2479 on gamj* of 823-851-801, exactly 200 pins more than the next nearest team, to win the title ond trophy emblematic of the Boys' team championship of the SNPJ. Richard Robich. an chorman of the team and an all-round athlete, led the new champions to vtctoiy ind rseordbroak-ing score with s brilliant 597 series All five members of the team wen in great form and amazed the onlookers with their superlative bowling and lofty scores. Sharon SNPJ la mighty proud of them! The runners-up in the boys' class was Circle 19 of Strabane, Pj., whose first team defeated the Pioneer Jrs. Circle of Lodge 589. last year's champions, by the close »corn of 2275 io 2252. This was a thrilling duel all the way with the final outcome in doubt right on up to the very last frame. Circle No. 19 took the opening game 782 to 750, lost the recond 724 to 749, and came back to win the third and deciding contest 759 to 753. They were about as evenly matched as two teams could be and gave a great account of themselves. Tfu- outstanding bowlers here were Eddie Koctan. James Pod boy and Chester Kamin ski with the latter two bringing home all the ' bacon" In the Doubles, Mingles and All-Events and, also, a tie for high game honors. Young Kamimki shot 823 in the Singles and 1815 in All-Events, three pins higher than Richard Robich of Sharon, and shared the Doubles honors on a 1047 with Podboy. For teen-age boys, that's the topa in bowling! In the girls* division the "Dawn of Youth" Circle No. 7 defended their title successfully by again defeating a Waukegsn Jolly Juvenile Circle entry, but this yoar by the narrow margin of only 12 pins, 1848 to 1834* with Margsrst Maes*. Jeenette Tancek. Margaret Ksnlk and Mildred Orogorln starring for their reapective leans. The Waukegsn juveniles took the first two games by scores of 542 to 519 and 871 to 527, but fell down in the third and final contest 521 to 800, and so lost a good opportunity to win the 194«» championship trophy. The Doubles title was won by Mafv*ret Ksnlk and Mildred Orogorln of the Jollv Juvenile Circle with a combined score of 783, as compared with the 700 total rolled by the runners-up, Or see Ann Oevdsnc and Helen Cock, for Perfect Circle of Chicago . . .
