The accompanying photo

Frank Rovison, erstwhile Sec

and the boys played for this
affair too and added the fl

shall long be remembered.
This ensemble is ever ready
to lend it's contribution to
our undertakings, be what
they may.
We the undersigned are
now, as ever, proud Of our
affiliation with this, the lar

State, numbering over $50
members.
1t is this ever active spi-
rit of our BuffalOnians that
has kept Lodge 557 grow

mountable obstacles. 1t is
this esprit de corps that
makes Lodge 557 an exam
pie of fraternalism in acl'

incidentally, Lodge 557 will
host the 22nd Annual C.F.U.

Tournament in 1856. Bro.

that these zealots of frater-

becomes standard operating
procedure when it can be uti-
lized to promote a lodge af-
fair.
Such was the case of the
January 20 barbecue, the
third in a series of this sea-
sons epicurean attractions.
The mercury hovered just
above the zero mark and the
icy blasts, typical of the lake
country, made any venture
outside a challenge. Nothing
daunted, our Bison City Ia
jednicari artfully erected a
tent and built their fire.
Our informant, George
Rok, puts it aptly when he
says: believe me, with a
raw wind it was rough. We
had a tent and once the fire
was started, well then it
was different. 1t sure at
tracted a lot of people"
Amongst t h e spectators
was a reporter from the city's
big morning newspaper who
had this to say: = "The pa
triotic fervor of the Croatian
Club members was matched
only by their appetite last
night when they installed
their new officers at the club
house, 226 Condor Ave-.
The Weather Be Hanged
"The occasion called for
barbecued lamb, an. age-old
custom in the Croatian coun-
tryside. What the dinner
lacked in the elegance of the
escoffier tradition, it made up
in folklore interest.
"Three husky m e m b e S
were selected to preside over
the proceedings. Starting at
noon, they hauled in four
lambs, totaling 14O pounds
and planned the outdoor fire.
"Snow or no snow, the
barbecue session had to 60
on. The trio built a huge
fire of cherry wood under
q canvas tent and tied the
lambs to the spit.
"By the time the meat was
half roasted, the aroma had
attracted half of the neigh
borhood.
"Around Z, after six and
one half hours of roasting,
the lamb was done to a turn.
The meat was carried to a
table for the carving. Then
someone gave the signal and,
in a mad rush, the members
plowed their way to the tent
with their plates.
Heading the stampede
were the new officers, Char
les Blazina, president; Sam
Alberti, vice-president; Ste.
lphen MARITIME, secretary; 10.
seph Morog, treasurer; and
Robert Grasha, recording sec.

Pittsburgh, Pa. - Once again, it is our
distinct privilege and pleasure to announce
the presentation of the 1854 Bonus Awards
to our Lodge Secretaries who were fortu-
nate to maintain their membership intact
during the year of 1854
We know that this is very good news
for those who are to share i'm this years
bonus melon, and to those who were un-
able to replace their losses in 1854, may
we suggest that little more effort be eX-
pended in 1855, which may prove fruitful
to you when the 1855 bonus awards are
announced next year.
AS you know, in order to qualify for
bonus award, each Lodge Secretary must
replace all membership losses incurred dur
ing the year. All gains in membership shown
during the year shall merit Special Award
of S1OO for each such addition.
How Bonus Awards Are Determined
To familiarize our Secretaries with the
transactions which affect the membership
count as far as the Bonus Award is con-
cerned, we are herewith bringing such infor-
nation for your perusal:
GAINS: Enrolment of new members;
Junior Order transfers; any member who
was terminated in 1853 and reinstated into
active status in 1854; Members who had
matured certificates prior to 1854 and did
not pay any funds of the Union, and were
placed on active status in 1854 by the pay
ment of Union Funds of 50 cents monthly.
LOSSES: Deaths; Suspensions; With
drawals; Cash Surrenders; Expulsions;
Reserve expirations; and Matured Certi-
ficates during 1854, if such members were
also removed from the payment of Union
Funds of 80 cents monthly.
Lodges which gained members by trans
fer from another Lodge will not receive cre-
dit for such gains as far as the Bonus is

About 90 businessmen, half

they claim were retroactive. ~
The source said negotiators

The final talks were cordial with
