South Chi Lodqe
Banquet
Recent Merger Is
Big Step Forward

So. Chicago, iii. - The ma
jority of the Croatian Frater-
nal Union members of the
area are familiar with the
fact that "Sts. Peter and
Paul" Lodge 80 and "St. Jo-
seph" Lodge 200 recently
merged to form the new "St.
Joseph" Lodge 80. Lodge 200
was founded so years ago and
Lodge 80 is 20 years old.
In the month of June, at
the regular monthly meetings
and also at special meetings
the membership of both lod-
ges voted unanimously in fa-
vor Of the merger. They were
convinced that together we
would be stronger and more
capable of continuing our
work for the betterment of
our lodge, the Croatian Fra
ternal Union and the Croa-
tan people of our colony. At
the first meeting of the new
ly organized lodge, officers
were appointed to serve until
the end of this year.
At this time we wish to
give advance notice to the
lodges of So. Chicago that a
Banquet will be held to Gel
ebrate the merger and to
commemorate the so years
work of former lodge 200 and
the 20 years activity Of
Lodge 80.
The banquet will take place
on Sunday, September 30,
1856, at the Croatian Home,
beginning at 5 PM. We ask
all the lodges and organiza-
tions of the area to please re-
serve this day for us by not
planning any affair for that
day. Joseph Vucich, Pres.

Interest Is Widespread
Many are interested in who
will be the Queen. Will San
Pedro, whose candidates are
Mary Ann Mardesich, Millie
Medak and Asia Nizitich be
victorious?
Over in San Pedro are ma
ny Dalmatians, who are ex-
cellent fishmermen; will they
be the ones to catch the
Queen? Will North Holly
wood win, whose candidate is
Ann Martinovich?
Now to 60 to old Los
Angeles, where the candi-
dates are Katherine Match

there are many strong Her
cegovci, most of whom are

able to bid for the Queen?
In Montebello, where they
have many oil wells, the can
didate is Helen Elich. Will
they strike luck?

Hungary. Though they livedf
here in the blessed freedom
that is America they couldn't !
help but feel a kinship for
their less fortunate brethren
in the dual monarchy.
For that reason they lost
no opportunity to speak
out against that system
and to give financial help
to groups and individuals
who were bravely fighting
it. Convention after con-
vention vehemently de-
nounced the succession of
tyrants who ruled by ter
ror.
To cite but one example Of
this earnest, inherent devo-
ton to a cause, we can proud
ly point to the fact that be-
tween 19O2-19O4 fully 1920
of the assets of the NCS was
given to freedoms cause in
Europe. The even now i'm
pressive sum of $1,000 was
gifted so when the entire as
sets of the organization were
but $48,541.
Against Any Coercion
The Society has always
been and will continue to be
a powerful force for demo-
cracy's cause. Though 1t car
ries no political weight as
such, it is an entity of con-
siderable influence.
The background of its
pioneers and older men,
bers makes them particu-
larly antagonistict to all
forms of coercion. Its
younger element having
been reared i'm this great
country is equally dedica-
ted to the precepts Of de-
mOcracy. ~
Though the plight Of it's
brethern overseas was always
close to our fraternalist's s.
heart, his love and fidelity
for his adopted country was
even more pronounced. For
after all, it had welcomed
him with open arms when
even his native soil would not
or could not support him.
It gave him material rich
es unequalled in the history
Of mankind. It gave him a
new inner self too, for here
he was the equal of everyone
here his station in life was
his own to choose. Here the
dignity of man is of para
mount consideration.
In a word he loved this
land and all its blessings as
only he who had lived with
out them can.
This Is Americanism!
Our CFU can well be proud
Of it's record during Americas s
great emergencies.
During the last great uni
versal conflict more than one
tenth of it's members, 1857
to be exact, served in it's arm
ed forces and 308 made the
supreme sacrifice.

Enthusiastically by the lead
ership and the membership
at large that $4,OOO,0OO
worth were soda record

It is interesting to note also
that the organization still
holds close to half of its as
sets in government securities
which bring small increment.
There have been no attempts
to dump" these for much,

Thus in every respect our
members and the organiza-
ton as a whole have done
everything possible to show
their appreciation for their
general well being. Their fl

tries (U. S. and Canada) is
a matter of record--day by
day accomplishments without
superficial fanfare for SINGER
ity needs no publicity agent.
Shades Of Warld WarI
Another very important
function of the Society has
been it's role in establishing
the identity of our people.
1t must be remembered
that when they first began
coming here in large numbers
they were coming from Aus
a-Hungary. So, Willingly
and unwittingly they were
called Austrians. ~ se*T7
During World War 1, in
fact, the Canadian govern
ment began placing Austri-
ans i'm concentration camps.
Quite a few Croats ended
up I'm these. 1t took the
good offices of the CFU to
clarity the difference be-
tween Austrian and Croat
and secure their release.
Since the Croats have dis
appeared from the map as an
Independent nation way back
in the beginning of the 18th
century it is UNDERSTANDABLE
difficult for others to be fa-
miliar with our nationality.
Despite that difficulty our
CFU, by it's very presence
across the length and breadth
of a vast continent, has done
more than any other person
or thing to publicize the word
and meaning of Croatian. BY
that alone it has earned the
everlasting gratitude of us
all.
