Must Value Membership
BY Stephen F. Brltch, English Editor, zajednicar

Continuing, every Junior
Order Nest member transfer
ring to a Lodge during 1855
will be considered as a gain
for that Lodge when it's Bo-
nus status is reviewed.
Further, all members, be
they Adult or Junior, must
remain as active paying men,
bers of their respective LODI
ges and Nests at the time the
Croatian Fraternal Unions
Conservation Bonus Awards
are paid in March of 1856.
In other words, members
enrolled before December
31st must maintain their
membership faithfully thru
the months ahead. Failure
to do so will jeopardize the
Bonus standing of the
Lodge Secretary or Nest
Manager and eventually de-
priye them of an Award.
This particular rule is only
just, for without it there
would be no meaning behind
the Society's determination
to conserve it's membership
strength through the channel
of rewarding it's Secretaries
and Managers for their eff
forts in it's, and their, behalf.
In fact, this rule is the very
sum and substance of the
C.F.U. Conservation Plan.
OF Vital Importance
Our Secretaries and Mana
! gers must also bear in mind
that all members signed ir
these waning weeks of 1865
must be paying their Lodge
or Nest dues no later thar
December 25 if they are to be
considered in the Conserva'
ton Bonus Awards under dis.
cussion.
All applications for men,
bership received at the Su-
preme Office after Decem-
Der 25 must bear the nota-
ton "Dues Paid for Month
of December" to be consid-
cred. If no such notation
appears thereon, the appli-
cant will automatically be
processed for entry into the
: Society's ranks in January
of 1856, too late to count in
; any Bonus Award standing.
We cannot stress to
8 strongly the Importance o
this particular rule and mos
;. urgently request that ou
Secretaries and M a n a g e r
govern themselves according
,, ly when they enroll new appl
= cants before December 31s
THEIR DECEMBER DUE
MUST BE PAID!

to the Producer and AnnOun(
emonies on Sunday, Januar.
The regular Sunday morn
ing show will be dedicated to
the 10 years of successful
operation of the program and
the main Anniversary Cele-
bration will be held at the
Slovene Auditorium, 6417 St.
Clair Avenue.
From the responses
which the Woodworking 10
cal committee has received
to it's invitations it is rea-
sonably certain that in ad-
dition to the usual large
attendance of local fans,
there will be a very good
representation from listen
ers in the Northern Ohio
and the wide listening area
which includes portions of
Mi h ig an, Pennsylvania
and lower Canada.
A very special program has
been arranged for the 10th
birthday party of the Croa-
! tian Radio Hour and it will
mark not only the celebra-
tion of 10 years of continuous
broadcasting Croatian music,
but it will also be promoted
as a special tribute to the
Producer and Announcer
brother John Birek.
Made Great Sacrifices
The Croatian Radio Hour
had it's beginning with a IL
minute spot on old Station
WADC whose transmittel
and main studios were loca
ted in Akron, but which hac
a local Cleveland Studio ii
the old Telenews Theatre.
It was from this studio tha'
John Birek broadcast tht
first Croatian Radio program
on Sunday, January 6, 1916
The program was heard a
a very early morning hour
at 700 AM, but even so j
was able to attract a rathe,
wide listening audience. Tn
program later shifted to al
afternoon spot with a As min
ute show, but came back t.
the early morning hour whel
the Saturday program did no
prove too successful.
The project had it's ups
and downs and there was a
time when it was in the red
for almost a thousand dol
lars. But John Birek would
not give up the idea and
kept the program going at
great personal sacrifice in
order to keep the Croatian
: Radio hour alive.
The program was gradua
!. ly increased to the poir
4 where it is now heard for
solid hour and a half betwee
the hours of $3.50 and 1910
: AM and it has, without
; doubt, the largest listenin
audience of any Croatian prt
gram throughout the coul
try. The program is no

the Lodge or Nest, the break
down of which is listed in ta-
bles appearing elsewhere in
today's English Section.
Before reviewing, in brief,
the simple rules governing
these Lodge and Nest A
wards, we would like to re-
mind our Secretaries and
that they will be
paid for every new member
they sign before December
81 in accordance with the
Prize Payments which pre-
vailed during the course of
the Society's 1855 Member
ship Campaign honoring the
4Oth Anniversary of it's Jun
ior Order.
For example, those writ
ing $1,000 Junior Educa-
tionaI Endowment at Age
18 will merit a Cash Award
of SIS; 81, 900 Twenty Year
Endowment, Junior or Sen
ior, SIS; $1,000 Twenty
Pay Endowment Age S5,
Junior or Senior, $12;
$1,000 Endowment Age 65,
Senior, $40; $1,000 Endow-
ment Age IS, Senior, $40;
and so on.
In addition, the Junior Or.
der Department stands pre-
pared to pay $1.O0 for Junior
Term Insurance written and
another $1.00 for Prepaid
Junior membership business.
Since the Conservation Bo.
nus Award rules clearly state
that a Lodge or Nest mem
bership can be increased sole
ly through the medium Of
signing. new members, it is
imperative that our Secreta'
ries and Managers contact ev
cry prospect before Saturday
December 81, 1855.
Definition OF Losses
While most of our Lodge
Secretaries and Nest Mana
gers are acquainted with th'
simple rules governing wha
can indeed be a profitable
game for them, we believe
few last minute reminder
may help some of them reacl
their goal without undu
trouble.
In the case of a Lodge
every Secretary who manage
to increase his or her mem
bership over the figure 9
January 1, 1866, will merit
Special Prize of $1.00 fo
each such new addition. Mes

A WORD
TO THE WISE
BY Rouson
By MRS. FRANK COLBY

q. The word score" has
caused much speculation In my
class. How did it start?--Mrs.
IL. j.
A. Let US begin with the orig
inal JHiddle English word scor.
- NJ Gch cut on q stick" Cen
Ituries ago, when trading was
very elementary. buyers and sell
lers kept q record Of q transaction
Iby scoring (netching1 one edge
lot q piece Of wood. The notches
represented the number Of hides,
cattle or other goods sold or
TRADED. The stick was split
Ilengthwise so that the notches
lon each side corresponded ex-
lactly, the buyer taking one piece,
land the seller keeping the other.
Thus. no later dispute could
arise, for each party to the trans
action could prove his score cor
rect BY simply fitting the split
pieces together again.
Such q scored stick was also
called q tally. from the Latin
Italea, "a stick Of wood"
From the ancient practice Of
scoring tnotchingJ a tally
tstick) have come the modern
words score and tally in an their
Iflguratiye and extended mean
lings.
However. the fox hunters cry.
I''tallyhol" has a different, though
somewhat uncertain, origin. It
probably is the English form OF
the French taiaut, pronounced: |:
ta-ee-Ho. It Is the cry Of q
dog handler when he sights the
fox. The cry is intended to urge
lon the hounds.
@. What Is the explanation Of
the word quick" !" in the Biblical
phrase. "the quick and the
dead,?--M. d.
A. The word quick, which now
meas swift: prompt" originally
meant living"
q. What Is the origin OF the
expression weighed in the bal
|ance and found wanting" and
why "balance"?--M. M.
A. Balance is from the Latin
BLANK, having two scales or
|platters." The first device for
weighing was the familiar hang-

as the symbol OF Justice. The
