CLEVELAND, Ohio =
Right now all interested men,
bers of CFU Lodge 859 are
awaiting the evening
of October 10, when the lodge
will observe it's 10th Anniver-
sary. This is not too long a
period of time, but sufficient
ly long enough to pave the
way for a lively gathering of
friends and boosters.
An important offshoot
of such an event is the pub
lication of a souvenir book
let that will treasure all a
chievements of the past
and thereby make itself
worthy OF being preserved
for the future.
Already a detailed story of
the lodges fortunes in the
struggle for recognition has
been compiled. Other phases
of lodge activity will be ade-
quately portrayed.
In order to finance a pro-
ject of this sort, congratula-

tory ads are needed; the more
the better. Most members as
signed to this work have con-
tributed beyond expectation.
However, there still remains
a backlog of promises await
ing fulfillment.
The deadline for ads will be
the date of the next lodge
meeting, September Is. Please
try to cooperate as much as
possible to make the anniver-
sary celebration success to
be long remembered.
Our next important an
nOuncement is that the Du-
quesne University Tambu-
ritzans will present their
annual cOlorful concert at
the Music Hall on Sunday,
February 9, at 800 pm.
We would appreciate any
cooperation from other or.
CARNATIONS and lodges in re-
framing from scheduling con
flicting events.

Society Seeks Greater Support In Dominion
East Chicago Singers
Begin RehearsaIs For
0peretta In Croatian

EAST CHICAGO, Ind. -
The Croatian Singing Society
"Sloga" will once again pro-
duce an operetta in Croatian.
The one being considered for
production is the Chocolate
Soldier.
The officers and members
of "Sloga" are in an active
campaign for additional men,
bers, former and new. Anyone
of Slavic descent interested
in singing and performing in
the operetta is urged to come
to rehearsal on Monday, Sep
tember 16, 800 pm, in the
Croatian Home, 4033 Main
St., Indiana Harbor.
If unable to attend on
that date, call President
Matt Rivich, East Chicago
5698-R, after 500 p.m., or
Secretary Mrs. Nicholas
Zafran, Westmore 1880,
at any time.
You do not have to be an
accomplished singer; love OF
music and a desire to sing are
the only requirements.
"Sloga" is under the capa.
BILE direction of Mr.. Charles
Stephans of Chicago, who also
directs 3 other choruses: Gro.
atian Chorus H arm on y"
Serbian Chorus "Branco Ra
datovich" and Lithuanian
Chorus "Pirmyn", all of Chi
cago, Ill.
Many of you readers ne
doubt remember "Sloga's'
rendition of the operetta 1.-THE
Merry Widow" in May ant
October of 1856. Those of yo,
who did not see it have nj
doubt heard about it at on
time or another. "Sloga" il
the only Croatian Singing So
ciety to produce a full length
operetta in the Croatian Ian
guage.
People, take pride in Gro
atian culture and send you
children and grandchildren t.
"Sloga". Don't forget to com
yourselves, as age is not limi
ted.

message to the Canadian
membership, that this years
campaign in their honor was
extended to October 31st, that
the prizes have been in
creased, and, if they continue
their good work, our Cana
dian members will have con-
tributed just as greatly to-
wards the current years cam
paign, if not more, as did our
membership in the United

Supreme President
Heartening Response

Heartenlng response
At our suggestion, the lod-
ges of Southern Ontario, and
those from Montreal, Quebec,
each selected a special COM
mitteee to make arrange
ments to welcome the visitors
should the campaign tour
take place.
We in the Supreme Office
were heartened at the readl-
ness Of our lodges to cooper
ate in the work. Only two
lodges reported that although
they were willing to partici-
pate in the proceedings, they
would not be able to send
their representatives to the
committee meetings because
of the great distance.
After it had been decided
not to proceed with plans for
a tour, the thought occurred
! to us that there was a posi-
| bility of holding a Fraternal
| (CFU) Day in Southern On
tario, whereupon we contac-
ted our lodges in that area of
Canada.
The majority of the lod-
ges replied that they are in
favor of the idea, but sug-
gested that it was too late
to make the necessary ar
rangements for this year.
Still others wrote, as did
Brother Stanko Spehar, Sec.
retary of Lodge 954, that the
members discussed the mat.
ter at their August meeting
and came to the conclusion
that Fraternal Day celebra'
ton could not be held in this
season because Of the short
time left for preparation anc
advertising in our newspa
pers."
eve would suggest" sale
Brother Spehar, "that all thu
lodges represented in the spc
cial committee, be notified t(
make formal decision at theil
meetings during December
and January, for holding
Croatian Fraternal Union Day
in Canada, and that the lod
ges start work immediately
Time To Start: Now!
We are grateful to all o
our lodges which have writ
ten in similar vein, and ar
especially thankful to th'
members Of Lodge 954 il
Hamilton, who supported ou
suggestion for a Croatial

ada.

, Ontario to discuss this sub
, ject at their annual meet
ings, and elect a working
committee. This committee

ticularly in those centers
where a number Of lodges Of
the Croatian Fraternal Union
exist, there is a prevailing
custom of celebrating regular
annual Croatian Fraternal
Union Days.
From year to year, these
celebrations are becoming
of greater and greater sig
nificance to the Society and
its progress and growth.
In sections where the laws
permit, there is keen compe-
tition for the queen of the
day; raffles are held, and at
tractive and valuable prizes
distributed to the lucky win
ners, the queen is crowned,
and, in general, our members
from near and far spend the
entire day in pleasant amuse,
ment, recreation and talk.
On that day, members ano
friends who have not met ir
a year or more renew friend
ships. There is always an op'
portunity to hear an address
by some member of the SUI
preme administration attend
ing the Fraternal Day celebra'
ton at the expense of the
Society.
5000 Members Strong
In Canada, the Croatiar
Fraternal Union boasts some
nine thousand members.
Inasmuch as the cities anc
towns are at greater distan
ces from one another there
than here in the States, max
ing it difficult to hold thes'
celebrations in the same man
ner as they are held here, still
we believe there is a possibili
ty Of arranging a very sue
cessful Croatian Fraterna
Union Day in Canada, prefer
ably in Southern Ontario
where IA of our lodges ar
located.

In comparison with pre-
vious campaigns, tn i S

so far as concerns enroll
ment of new members, and
especially the amount of

only a very small percentag
of them registered desire t
take the tour, it was though
best not to have the tour.

What Committee Wants
; Judging from reports ema
mating from Northern Cali
fornia, the Conference end o1
this gathering promises to de-
sert the run-of-mine patterr
which has been the HALLMARK
of such undertakings in thu
past.
1t is the desire of the Com
mittee that bros. Grasha ant
Badovinac each devote l.
minutes to talks covering tn
more important business pha
ses of the CFU, following
which the rally would b.
turned over TO an educationa

The Committee would al
so have the speakers stress
the Importance of recruit

! plain the ins and outs of

| There is also the hope o
the Committee that stressin!
the need of activating JUNO

That bros. Grasha and Ba

foregone conclusion in tn
minds Of the Society's Cam
paign Committee at Pitts

What the Northern Cal

to avoid is seeing a "CF'

leave Sept. 81 only to "coe

This has been the rule G
thumb in all too many sue

Some Rhyme and Reason For The Employment Of Field Men
The Cost Of GU Campaigns
Administration Fund

Administration Fund
We know that all the oper-
ating expenses of the Society
are paid out of the Admins
tration Fund.
What all, in addition to
these first-year contributions
of every new member, is paid
into the Administration Fund,
we will not discuss here, for
it would take us far astray
of the subject which we have
chosen for this article.
Our semi-annual and an
nual reports show that,
even after payment of all
awards to our proposers, a
considerable amount comes
into the Administration
Fund from the first-year
contributions of new men,
bers. In 1856, after pay
ment of all awards, the
Administration Fund bal
ance was boosted by the
tidy sum of Ss9,OoO.oO.
l truly can find no way, can
find no words, how better to
prove that the Croatian Fra
ternal Union is not spending
one single cent out of its
treasury, and, therefore, is
not spending any of the mem
bership's funds on campaigns,
but is, rather, spending mon
ey contributed by its new
members = for which many

bers.
If we did not have these
Johns, Matthews, Marys, etc.
we would not be paying a
wards, nor would we be re-
ceiving a goodly portion Of
the first-year contributions OF
new members into the Admin
istration Fund.
Method Of Operation
Will our members continue
to discuss at their meetings
and through articles in the
Zajednicar, how huge sums o.
the Society's money are being
spent on our campaigns, how
the awards are too high, etc.
1 do not know how many
of our members will read
this, and how many will
| give it some thought, but if
by some happy chance it
would be read at least by
those who complain ire
quently, l feel certain that
these complaints would
cease.

would not have many if j

explain who paid the expen-
ses of all of our campaigns
held to date, and how. And
then I will bring my thoughts
in connection with our future
work, how we can not only
prevent a loss in membership,
but increase it from year to
year.
l will use the simplest form
for doing this, namely, relate
the experiences of one of our
builders. Let us say his name
is John.
Our John got busy and OBJ
tanned an applicant for men,
bership, 25 years of age. John
succeeded in selling him a
81 900 Endowment at Age 85
Certificate, which means that
this member will pay his dues
regularly each month, and if
he reaches age IS, he can re-
ceive his one thousand dollars
in cash.
There are other options
from which he may choose,
but we will not 60 into that
for the time being.
This young man, 25
years of age, will pay
$2O.88 per year for this in
| surance. So, during the
first year of his member
ship, he will pay $2O.8S to
the Society, and our John
will be paid an award of
$1,000.
The entire first years con.
tributions of the new mem,
Der go into the Administra'
ton Fund, which means that
our good member John, ir
addition to receiving $1,000
succeeded in strengthening
our Administration Fund by
$1O.sS.
If the applicant for mem
bership were older, say 40 OF
so years of age, John woulc
still receive an award of only
$1,000, but the Administra
ton Fund would be the reel
pient of much more than $40.
For example, if the new
member were so years of age
he would pay $48.84 per year
and John would receive $40
w lille the Administration
Fund would get $38.84.
The Older The More $$
Should our John enroll
new member Is years of ag'
on the 20 Pay Ordinary En-
dowment at age IS plan
which means that the new
member would pay dues fol
20 years only, and upol
: reaching age IS would receive
the face value of his certifi
! cate in cash, the same as wa!
the case in the first example.
); This member would pa,
1886 per year for his insur
. ance, and our John would re
ceive an award in the amour
of $1,000, and will hav'
strengthened the Administra
tion Fund by $21.36.
Here, too, the older the
applicant, the greater the
amount coming into the
Administration Fund, al
though our John, regard
less Of the applicants age,
receives the same award,
$1,000.
Let us assume that oul
John also enrolls a 25-yeal
old member on the "20 Yeal
Endowment" plan. This mem
Der would pay $51.00 annual
ly, of which our builder, John
would receive $500, while
the Administration Fun
would get $500.
This same procedure hold!
