GALA WEEKEND FOR "SL0GA" MEMBERS OF k0NESSEN

MONESSEN, Pa. - The
Croatian Social and Educa-
tional Society "Sloga" of this
community will commemorate
it's 4Oth Anniversary with a
two-day celebration on Satur-
day, Nov. End, and Sunday,
Nov. 3.
Shortly before the turn of
the. 10th Century, Monessen
was founded by men interest
ed in a mill site for the then
rapidly expanding steel in
dustry. Into the mill came a
number of Croats from the
Pittsburgh and vicinity indus
tries.
These early pioneers were
the founders of today's great
CFU Lodge 1874.
These early migrants, coup
led with the influx of Croa-
tian immigrants from Europe,
formed a Croatian Colony of
substantial numbers.
These migrants, bringing
with them their cultural
heritages and provincial
differences, formed their
Independent social, singing,
and tamburitza organiza-
tions.
These were s splin t e r e d
groups with animosity be-
tween them for nearly a de-
cade; however, within these
organizations were men who
had seen the fallacy of a peo-
pie being divided by cultural
activities and provincial pre-
JUDGES.
Division was not upgrad-
ing them in view of the COM
plex problems facing them in

Homo Completed In 1917

Unity "Sloga" was achieved
in 1916, assets merged, and
ground was broken for the
construction Of a sCroatian
Hall.
The home was completed
and dedicated in 1917, and is
even today, after 40 years,
considered one of the best
halls in the community and
among the top Croatian
Homes in the Nation.
In the four decades of it's
existence the CrOatian So
cial and Educational Soci-
ETY. has been the center of
Croatian social and cultur-
al activity in this area. In
it's home all activities of
Lodge 1874 take place.
Many of our younger gen
Grafton have learned to read
and write Croatian under the
tutelage Of it's educational
committees; others h ave
learned music in it's brass
bands, tamburitza and sing
ing groups.
It's dramatic clubs have
presented m any beautiful
plays and operettas at home
and in surrounding Croatian
communities.

Humanitarian Society
Economically it has paid
out thousands of dollars to its
members in sick benefits and
to heirs of it's deceased men,
bers.
In the mid-thirties, when
the great organizing drive of
the industrial workers began,
the organization and it's men,
bers were in the forefront of
the unionizing movement. 1t
permitted the free use of its
spacious hall for union acti-
vity when other organizations
were reluctant to do so, for
fear of reprisal by the steel
industry.

Lincoln Photo
Only a Copy
OF Retouch

CHICAGO. Nov. II (H9. =
Ralph Newman today put a
new descriptive label on an old
picture of Abraham Lincoln.
Mr.. Newman. a Lincoln COL
lector and scholar, last week
had said the photograph had
not been published before it
turned up a new book.
But today he said further
research has shown that it was
a copy of "a retouched old
photograph of the Civil War
President.
Mr.. Newman gave this &C
count of his new findings:
A photographer named Elijah
c. Middleton of Cincinnati
made pictures he called chro-
molithographs. They resembled
oil portraits.
In 1864 Mr.. Middleton pro-
duced one of Lincoln. 1t was
based on a photograph that un-
doubtedly had been made that
year by Mathew Brady. Mr.
Middleton. in retouching the
photo, retained most of the
facial characteristics, but made
some changes in the hairline.
collar, necktie and some of the
clothing.
Mr.. Newman said Lincoln
wrote to Mr.. Middleton De-
cember 30, 1864. and COM
mented that your picture is in
the main very good"
Mr. Newman said somebody
thereafter photographed the
Middleton print and prints
made from that negative look
a photograph of Lincoln which
differed from all known pho.
tographs of him.
Stefan Lorant, a New York
authority on Lincoln. yesterday
termed the photograph a re-
touched copy.
The photograph appears in
the book Indian Territory" by
