for this year, the Board ap-'
pealed to the entire member
ship for a unified concentra-
ton of efforts, so as most
properly and effectively to
discharge our obligations to-
wards our pioneers, who sixty
years ago laid the keystone
of this magnificent institution
of Croatians and other Slavs

to make this Membership
Campaign the most success
full ever.
The Croatian Fraternal
Union is responsible for nur-
turing the growth of many
youth activities and has al
ways lent a helping hand
when a kolo or a tamburitza
group emerged into existence.
It is gratifying indeed to
note the organization of ma
ny kolo groups throughout
the country, but we fear that
the interest in our tamburit-
"a music is slowly diminish
ing.
Matt Gouze, Rudolph Germ
kovich and many others have
gone all out in an effort to
maintain and promote fur
ther interest in the musical
culture of the land Of our an
cestors. But, they alone can
not accomplish what needs to
be done.
Tamburitza Music Tops
We feel that in this Goth
Anniversary year, the C.F.U.
leaders in Pittsburgh, with
the cooperation of the Lodges
and Nests, should arouse
more interest in the tambur-
itza. Let's get our youth back
into the fold through the most
popular medium known to
them, and that is music.
In the United States and
Canada we have many idle
and capable tamburitza teach
ers. How about putting their
talents to good use by having
them tour the country and
endeavoring to organize tam
buritza groups in the various
localities? Progress in this
venture would be slow, but
patience would be it's own re.
ward in the long run.
There are many things we
can do to make this a big
year. Let's make this the
year in which we bind the
bonds of fraternalism ever
closer as we personify that
great motto, "All for OYle and
One for ALL"

Quadrennial Convention n
September Of 1851 and be-
came effective as of January
1, 1852. Since that time, some
$4,000 members have seen
fit to change from the Old to
the New Plan and enjoy the
added protection it affords.
While the number recorded
as having made the change is
heartwarming, if not salts
factory, we nonetheless must
point out that there remain
some 10000 members who
continue to carry the Old
Plan in the face of our many
appeals to apply for the New
Plan for their own future
good, i'm spite of the fact that
no medical examination is
involved.
These appeals will definite
ly cease after June 80, 1854,
for the Supreme Board ruled
last September that no men,
Der past 35 years of age on
that date will be permitted to
change from the Old to the
New Plan without undergoing
a medical examination.
Nor will members past SO
years of age on June 80, 1854,
be permitted to transfer to
the New Plan. Even a medical
examination will not suffice
in their case.

SIXTIETH ANNIVERSARY CAMPAIGN TO
PUBL|C|ZE SOCIETY IN NUMEROUS WAYS

|ENOOO VV7IO -
million dollars insurance in
honor of the Sixtieth Anniver-
sary of the CrOatian Frater-
nal Union.
At first glance, these fig
ures loom large, but believing
in the conscientiousness of
our membership and knowing
their love and respect towards
the Society, and their pride
of membership, we are conf
dent of eventual success in
this great task.
Prizes Are Attractive
During the Campaign last
year, the builders of our So
ciety enrolled five thousand
new members, with close to
five million dollars insurance.
During the Jubilee, Cam
paign of this year, we can and
must increase these figures.
That will truly be the best
kind of gift to our celebrant
in honor of it's humble begin
nings sixty long years ago in
Old Allegheny.
In the last issue of the Ia
jednicar, both the Croatian
and English Editors brought
a schedule of prizes offered in
this years Jubilee Campaign,
as we'll as the conditions for
achieving the Special Award,
in addition to the cash awards,
namely, the earning of $50
Points during the Campaign,
emitting the contestant to
travel to the Ninth COnven-
ton of the CFU in Philadel-
phia, in 1855, as Honorary
Delegate, at the expense Of
the Society, and in addition,
being entitled to three per
diems at the Convention at
the rate payable to the regu-
lar Delegates.
It is not necessary to call
upon our regular workers TO
take part in this Campaign,
for we know that all who
showed such a good standing
in our previous Campaigns
will fall in line Immediately.
But it is proper and necessary
to urge all of our members to
join with our old, tried and
true builders a joint effort to
lift up our Croatian Fraternal
Union to even greater and
enviable heights, all for the
welfare Of it's membership and
the honor of our people here
and abroad.
Appeal To Every Lodge
We especially call upon our
Lodges which will this year
be celebrating not only the
Sixtieth Anniversary of the
CFU, but perhaps an Anniver-
sary Of the Lodge, to make a
pledge at the very start of the
Campaign, that their Lodge
will be increased by a certain
number of new members, to
honor the Lodge Anniversary
land that of the Society.
Let them take example in
the achievements of the Off
GERS and membership of
Lodge III in Los Angeles,
California, who early last
year gave q pledge to enroll
60 new members during the
year in honor of the Goth An
niversary of the Lodge, and
which pledge they SO honor
ably fulfilled.
BY decision of the Supreme
Board of last September, the
Executive Officers and Off
cials comprise the 1854 Cam
paign Committee. Our work
