KenOsha, Wise. - T h a t
much anticipated event, AM
ity's Annual Costume Party
is looming on the future no.
rizon. The date: Saturday,
October 29th - the place:
why, Burgers Hall, of course
- the time: round about 8
or thereafter. So why not
plan on joining us in this
frollicky occasion?
There'll be prizes for cos
tuning, so get your thinking
caps agoing. We've had many
clever costumes in the past
years and for some of you
old-timers, remember way
back when a certain quiet
sedate Amityite had all of us
fooled in a boisterous roll of
a gun-toting cowboy (Millie
Miller, no lessD - and the
time one of the gals donned a
flannel nightie and came
peeking round the bend of
the GA Home (initials CMK)
- and the time when the
man on the flying trapeze al
most lost his long white flan-
nels (Stella?)
Oh, there's been many a
festive time at these cos
tuned parties that have been
taking place ever since Amity
organized twenty-six lon 6
years ago! During the bread
line days, the parties were
called hard-time parties; Of
ten they were called masque-
rades, but for the past sew
eral years they've been enti-
tied Costume Parties.

the November general elec-
ton.
Gets $40 Of Total Vote
Bro. Latkovic went into the
Primary Election heavily fa-
vored to win the nomination,
but hardly anyone would
have wagered on his captur-
ing 500 of the vote in order
to be assured of automatic
election.
When the votes were all
in on election night, how
ever, the official count re-
vealed that bro. Latk0vic
had polled over $40 of the
total vote cast in his ward
for councilmanic candi-
dates and led all three of
his opponents by better
than two to one.
Wilson Latkovic is thus
assured of election to a sec.
ond term as Councilman tC

lands City Council and with
his election go the congratu.
lations and best wishes of al
our people in the city.
All This And Baby Too
The victory in the Primary
was sweet for Wilson, but il
came as a sort of anti-clima2
to another important event il
his life which occurred barely
two weeks before.
His wife, the former vi
Olet Fuchec, presented him
with a new baby boy. 1t is
their first child.
In fact it seems that Viii
sons private life is geared t.
his political life.
Two years ago, after h
first won election to the City
Council, he got married ano
now for his reelection pre-
sent he gets a brand new ba
by boy. So this should be th'
tip-off to Wilson-A new ba
by and reelection every tw'
years!
In all seriousness thougl
we are happy for both Wilson
and Violet and we know to
that the events of recen
weeks have brought grea
happiness to both.
Serious About Career
We met brother Latkovi
shortly after his reelection
and asked what plans h
might have for the next tw'
years and what course h
would follow in the Council.
His reply was that h
would continue to push &C
lively for development of Gle
veland's large lake-front are'
in anticipation of the nev
busine ess and prosperit,
which is expected to come t.
Cleveland after the st. Law
renee Seaway project is com
pleted four or five year
hence.
Bro. LatkOvic is interest
ed in new housing, too, and
is a member of City Coun-
cil's Development Commits
sion. His experience of the
past two years should
serve him and the citizens
of Cleveland in good stead
during the next two years.
We join with his man,
friends in extending SINGER
congratulations.

Presidents or Heads of duly
accredited colleges or univer-

Trust Fund at it's March,
1856, sessions and proceed to
make it's benefits available in
due time.
Depart From Tradition
The 81 Ninth Convention
Delegates also voted to retain
themselves "in power" be-
tween tn e Sc quadrennial
gatherings of the Society by
adopting Section Al of the
Revised Bylaws as prepared
for the Philadelphia conclave
by the Executive Board.
The new Bylaw will read:
each Delegate shall repre-
sent his lodge, or lodges
from the time his credentials
are approved by the Conven'
ton until such time when the
next regular Convention shall
convene. 1t is the duty of the
Delegate to vote according to
the wishes Of the lodge mem
bership which he represents
The 81 Delegates are
already carrying out their
duties i'm accord with this
new Bylaw by participant

Ninth Convention Salary Adjustments

Editors, Sports Director Given Lowest
Hike BY Salary And Per Diems Committee

Pittsburgh Pa. - AS expected, the raises voted the
various Officials stationed at the Home Office at Pittsburgh
by the Delegates to the Soceys 9th National Quadrennal
Convention have aroused storm of controversy
For the edification of members large here
the increases voted by the Delegates during their September
1926 1855 deliberations in the City of Philadelphia and
the present scale adopted four years ago:
ZajednicÌŒar = Fraternalist. [volume] (Allegheny, Pa.) 1894-current, 1955-10-19

1t would that the Convention Committee Sala-
res and Per Des did not hold high the worth of the
Editors of the Zadncar and the Director of Sports and
Education to the Croaan Fraterna Unions welfare when
that Committee arrived at the above salary adjustments and
recommended their adoption by the 9th Convention Del
egates
Certainly nothing else be construed when notes
that the Director of Sports and Education increased
salary by but $780, the Editors by $125 whereas
the soealed top official echeon merted increases
ming from 5000 to rather astronomical for us, $500
per month
