She introduced a group of
our mothers, dressed in ma
tional costume, who sang a
medley of Croatian songs
with accordion accompani-
ment by Rose Dubrovich. One
song, ia Sam Baba Ljuta,"
was the hit Of the evening.
While the girls sang the

vorite Recipes" is once more
available.
Our cook book contains
priced recipes composed by
women Of various nationali-
ties. A ajority of the reci-
pes cannot be found in any
other book, due to the fact
that they have been devel-
oped from the hand of flour,
pinch Of salt" methods Of our
mothers and grandmothers.
Hands of flour were
measured into accurate
cups of flour and thus our
recipes were completed for
publication.
Among our recipes are di-
rections for making sarma,
goulash, Lenten dishes, stru-
dels, cookies, simplified nut
rolls, salads, and even Gro
attain blood sausage.
We would like to thank

chased our book.
Through the ads and
write-ups in the Zajedni-

reached different parts of
the world, including the
United States. Cana da,
Germany and recently Bue-
nos Aires.
Requests for it were so nu-
mcrous that the book is now
in its fourth printing.
The school children and
the members of the P.T.A.
are very grateful to all Of
you. The sale of these books
has enabled us to buy clothes
for the Altar Boys, maps,
charts, books, encyclopedias
for the class rooms, a Baptis-
imal Fountain for our new
church and playground equip
ment.
Our goal now is to aid our
school Building Fund and

Exclude Modern Traffic

Exclude Modern Traffic
There is no town in Europe
which has retained it's medic
val appearance to such a de-
gree as Dubrovnik.
On the top Of it's broad
and well-preserved ramparts
not inferior in beauty to
those of Carcassonne and Av-
ignon, a walk can be taken
around the whole town.
The town is entered
through two gates which
exclude all modern traffic.
The material wealth, the
highly developed under
standing for the beautiful
and the refined artistic
taste of the inhabitants of
DubrOvnik made the town,
under the hands of famous
masters, a true treasury of
works of art, of which
there are too many to be
enumerated.
The most characteristic ar
chitecture of Du brovnik k
comes to full expression as
the many palaces, in the
Church of st. Blase, the pa
tron of the town, in the ca
thedral, the Franciscan and
Dominican monasteries, the
palace Soonza, and the beau
tiful princely palace in Re-
naissance style.
Really Two Dubrovniks
The medieval town is a
lovely setting for musical and
folklore festivals, which take
place here every year.
Through the festivals and
the gay life Of the town, the
cafes under the arcades of
the ancient port, another Du-
brovnik breathes - the town
of sunny beaches, entertain
ments, and recreation, which
is situated outside the gates
of the town.
Amid the abundant SOU
thern vegetation are beach
es and promenades, and in
gardens with palm-fringed
paths stand villas and hO-
tells which are the best in
Dalmatia.
Dubrovnik, with it's agree
able climate, attracts thou
sands of tourists all the year
long.
The heat of summer is
made endurable by fresh
breezes which come from the
open sea unchecked by any
island, and the winter, with
an average temperature of
TO- G., is even milder than the
winter of Naples.

nous blue Grotto' on the
island of Bisevo.
Greeks Had Name For 1t
Further south there rises
out of the sea the medieval
little stone-built town of Kor-
cula, famed for it's beauty
and grace.
The calm town with it's
steep streets, often changing
into a flight of steps, has a
beautiful cathedral contain
ing many art treasures.
In the old port, below for
tifications of the town, the
picturesque knightly fol k
dance, the Moreska, is per-
formed every year on the
29th of July. 1t represents a
battle against the Moors and
derives from the 18th CEN
tury.
Opposite Korcula and sepa-
rated from it by a channel
lies the Peljesac peninsula
with the picturesque little
town of Orebic.
To the south of Hvar lies
the rocky island of Wis with
fertile valleys, orchards,
and renowned vineyards.
The ancient Greeks called
it Issa and the first geo.
graphers mention it.
The largest settlement is
the town of Wis, above which
rise Oh rocky cliffs ancient
English and Austrian for
tresses.
Near the island two sea
battles took place: In 1911
between French ships and the
victorious squadron, and in
1866 between the Austrian
and Italian navies, the latter
of which lost the fight.
Pearl OF The Adriatic
Of all the beautiful Dalma-
tan towns, Dubrovnik, the
pearl of the Adriatic Sea-" is
the most exquisite.
1t is not only one of the
finest medieval towns in Eu-
rope but-like Venice-it is
unique in the whole world.
Those who have seen its
beauty will never forget it.
Dubrovnik, to be visited
August 2O-21-22 by the CFU
Group Party, is first men,
toned in history in the year
S67 as an imperial city of
Byzantium.
The town remained under
Byzantine rule until 1905,
when it acknowledged the
sovereignty of Venice after
the decay of the Byzantine
Empire.
Breaking the power of
Venice OH the Adriatic
shore in 1858, the Croa-
tian-Hungarian King Lud-
wig l assumed protection
over Dubrovnik. This was
the period of the highest
prosperity of the autono-
nous Republic of Dubrov-
mix.
Many commercial connec-
tions were concluded and the
town speedily developed and
enriched itself. It's authority
extended as far as the mouth
Of the Neretva and the Boka
Kotorska and it's fine mercan-
tile marine sailed all over the
Mediterranean Sea.
Large palaces and other
edifices were built, and po-
etry, literature and other arts

ing full advantage of this pri-
vilege, and so lost $50, to
which they were entitled. The
question here does not merely
involve $50 which the Su-
preme Office sends to the
nest for payment of the
child's dues.
But there is also involved
the award, which the Jun
ior Order pays to the pro-
poser of the young child,
which amounts to SIS per
one thousand dollars of in
surance on the 2O-Year En-
dOwment plan and Educa-
tiOnal Endowment at Age
18, and S12 per thousand of
insurance under a 20 Pay
ment certificate.
Therefore, if the child is
insured, let us say, under a
20 Payment certificate for
one thousand dollars, then
the parent, as proposer, re-
ceives a prize Of $12, which
brings the total to $32, or a
sufficient amount to pay the
monthly dues for IS full
months for one thousand dol
lars of insurance.
Paid S16,94O In 1855
In 1865, the Sick Benefit
Department paid out the
handsome sum Of S16,940.00
in maternity awards for S49
new babies.
In the current year, this
amount will be increased by
one-third, if the parents en-
roll their child with a perma-
nent certificate in the Society
within 90 days after birth.
The sum Of SO for each
child will be paid to the moth
er who is insured for sick
benefits, regardless of Whe-
ther or not the baby is en-
rolled in the Junior Order
and the remaining $40 will be
paid to the nest for payment
Of dues, as above described.
If the child is enrolled i'm
the Junior Order under a
Term certificate only, for
which dues of 25 cents
monthly are payable until
age 18, then the mother
will receive $40 as materni-
ty award, but will lose the
remaining $50, TO which
she would otherwise be
entitled.
With this explanation,
wish to point out to oul
young parents how the Gro,
attain Fraternal Union helps
them to insure their children
for larger amounts, SO that
when their children reach age
20, they will receive from
their parents a gift in cash, il

The young man replied: Il

earnings, | repay my debt,

make investment for the
future,
The Emperor, taken a
back by what he had
heard, for he did not think
his peasants were so well
off, asked how that were
possible.
The peasants reply was
s'By repayment Of a debt, J
mean that | am supporting
my parents who raised me

investment for the future,
mean that | am rearing my

Of this tale, | would like
to refer to that portion which
makes mention of investment
in the future.
Our members, parents,
can make no safer invest
ment for their own and
their children's future,
than by enrolling their
children in the Junior Or

nal Union, not only under
the Term to Age 18 plan,
which terminates at age
18, but also with one of the
permanent types of certifi-

in lieu of sick benefits durin

award was in the amount o

raised the award to $40 fo

In 1865, on recommends
tion by brother John Ovca

convention adopted, the fo1
lowing change:
Female members insured
for sick benefits at least 3

tied to $4,000 for each

amount shall be credited
towards assessments on
any certificate issued by
the Junior Order except
Term certificates, provided
the child is enrolled i'm the
Junior Order within 80
days after birth. The sum
of $1,000 shall be paid to
