William Saroyan Play
Dealing With Saloons

Cleveland, Ohio - One of
the oldest of the American in
stitutions is the Cafe" more
familiarly known as the sa-
loon.
The village bar was always
"a popular resort, with plenty
of social activity. Those who
frequent the saloon could be
anyone from the president of
a responsible business to a
laborer in a steel mill.
Because of the varied back
ground of both the individ-
uals who patronize saloons
and their activities, William
Saroyan has seen fit to write
"The Time of Your Life, a
Pulitzer Prize comedy, for
which the setting is a San
Francisco waterfront cafe.
To enjoy all the rich hu-
NOR and understanding of the
play, the zumberaks of Lodge
$50 have made a reservation
for Sunday, February 26, at
the Euclid-77th branch of the
Playhouse. To make reserva-
tons, call PR 1898 from
500 AM to 500 PM, and la
ter PR. 1-7698.
Tickets will be available at
the lodge meeting Friday,
February 10, or sooner if
requested.

them in Skopje, and taught
them several of the songs and
dances which have been per-
formed by the Duquesne
group in the last few years.
Critics Go Overheard
Latest word from our ira
yelling Tammies is that the
Yugoslav National Folk Bal
let concert was thrilling, col
orful and fast moving. They
heartily recommend to all our
people that they attend when
the troupe performs in Pitts
burgh on February 18th.
And the Tammies' opin-
ions seem to concur with
the New York critics, who
used every superlative in
the book to describe the
show.
There are beautiful songs
and dances from Dalmatia,
Posavina, Slavonia, as well as
Serbia, and, of course, Mace
donia, the home of the
troupe's members. The cos
tunes alone will take your
breath away.
Get Tickets At Once
Tickets for the Pittsburgh
performance are still avail
able at the Baltz Agency,
downtown Pittsburgh, AT l.
2196, or through the Du-
quesne Tamburitzans' Office,
AT 1-3498.

Between Zadar and Split
lies Sibenik, an old town
with narrow, twisting, pre-
cipitous streets, situated on
the slopes of a hill which
widens like an amphithe-
atre along the shore of the
bay into which the Krka
stream flows.
The pride of this town with
it's old churches, palaces, and
shadowed yards with beauti-
full stone wells, is the Cathe-
dral of st. Jacob, a master
piece of the early Kenais-
sance.
The building was started in
1431 with a roof and a lofty
dome of large stone slabs,
which can only be seen on Sy-
rian churches. The human
heads in stone around the
outer edge of the apse are
very interesting. They repre-
sent men and women of alt
ages and ranks, and some of
them are portraits of con-
temporaries.
Costumes Are Beautiful
An interesting excursion
along the road brings you to
the famous waterfalls of the
Krka near Skradin.
A longer excursion = by,
road or rail - leads to the
little town of Knin,, where
national costumes and GUS
toms are authentically, pre-
served.
The port of Sibenik is
faced by the island of Zla-
rim and opposite to it's en-
trance lies the little seaside
resort of the same name.
The lovely old national cos
tunes of the women of Zlarin
are renowned. The men of
Zlarin fish for coral and
sponges in the warm waters
around the island.

Dear Mr.. Brkich:
During his recent visit to
Great Falls, V. l. Mandich,
Pres. of the Croatian Frater-
nal Union, made a most fa-
vorable impression, not only
with our "Croatian Brother
hood" lodge members, but all
with whom he came in con-
tact. It is unfortunate that
we did not meet this Am
bassador of Charm" much
sooner his winning ways
would have brought us into
the fold long age.
Mr.. Mandich, in my esti-
nation, is one of the most
intelligent and cultured Slavs

Award Winners. The trip is
to be made next August.
The unique beauties of the
Dalmatian countryside, the
natural riches of the country,
it's mild and healthy climate,
lush Mediterranean vegeta-
ton and great quantity of
cultural and historical mon
uments; it's great contribu-
ton to the Yugoslav struggle
for liberation during the Sec
ond world war; it's good
transport, wide network of
hotels and tourist facilities;
and it's rapid development; all
this contributes to present
Dalmatia as the country with
a glorious past and a bright
future.
All the steamers Of the Ri
Split-Dubrovnik ex-
press lines call on beautiful
Zadar. Once the capital of
Dalmatia, it was in Roman
times the flourishing town of
Jadera.
The port itself contains
the town gate and a part of
the medieval Notifications
of the past, and in the town
many interesting monuments
are to be found.
In addition to the relics
of Roman times there is
the Archaeological Museum
in the former church of st
Donate 10Th century,, one
of the oldest medieval
buildings of Da I'm a t la,
which stands on the site of
the former Roman forum.
The most interesting object
in the ancient church of st.
Simeon is the wrought-silver
coffin with the relics of this
saint, the patron of Zadar.
The old guard-house with
the clock now houses a collec-
ton of national costumes.
The town has a theatre, a pic
ture, gallery and two large
libraries. The bathing places
with beaches lie just outside
the town.
All places of interest both
inland and on the neighboring
islands can be reached by bus
or steamer.
Cathedral Of st. Jacob
The medieval residence of
the Croatian kings and seat
of the bishops was Min (the
Roman Aenona), now a small
place.
In the Novigrad Bay, which
is especially rich in fish, lies
the little town of Novigrad,
with an ancient tower of the
18th century.
In the calm seaside resort
Of Biograd ma moru, east of
Zadar, only ruins witness it's
former magnitude.
Behind Zadar, in the green
plain "Ravni Kotar," is the
great settlement of Benkovac,
in whose neighborhood there
are several medieval towns
and ruins of the Roman town.

Permission to use this

Not only is it an ad-

that the Statue of Liberty

we must believe in the face of the facts -
the inactive status quo of the Kansas City
of today, not to mention yesterday.
Who would argue otherwise?
X
We do not wish to lecture our members
in Kansas City. Far from it.
Certainly we cannot call to task here
those "Old Timers who were toilng for
their Society many years before we arrived
on it's official scene in 1910.
We cannot deny these aged members
their right to retirement from the CrOa-
tan FraternaI Unions active ranks in the
United States and Canada. The record
shows that they earned that right, and
earned it the hard way.
But those who should have followed in
their footsteps are different.
Here is room for criticism.
Here are those who either could not or
would not take up where the community's
"Old Timers" left off those who would
rather sit on their hands than lift them in
behalf of the Society.
If the shoe fits, wear it.
X
Perhaps some sound advice is now in
order 1t may be of some help.
Our Kansas City Lodges have Central
Committee of long standing, one Of the fin
est in years gone by and once an activity
model" of national renown.
The Committee will next meet on
Monday, February 20, in the Slovenian
Home to elect officers for the year and
discuss the Croatian Fraternal Unions
1856 Membership Campaign Drive.
May we suggest that people be elected
to the posts mad enough at the English
Editor of the Zajednicar to become active
and make him "eat crow in time?
1t would be pleasure to do so on these
pages = if we find it savory.
One more, final reminder.
Kansas City was represented by five
Delegates at the Croatian Fraternal Unions
9th National Quadrennial Convention, held
September 1926, 1855, in Philadelphia.
They are Stephen Sachen, Lodge 35;
Ivan Grisnik, Lodge 314; Ignac Modrcin,
Lodge $50; Anton Cop, Lodge sos; and
Mike w. HOtujac, Lodge 734. All are to
serve in that capacity until the 1889
Convention in Detroit
All five are also members Of the Kansas
City Central Committee and should be
among the first to "reacquaint' their COM
munity with the Society as a whole.
We found them to be true Fraternalists
during the 1855 Convention.
They are still Fraternalists
AS such, we ask them to help return
Kansas City to an active status
