Cardinal Stritch Prince Among Men

The new Cardinal acknow-
lodged this honor as a tribute
"to the zeal of my clergy, to
the deep faith of my people"
Difficult Man To Know
1t is hard to know any man
really well. 1t is even more
difficult to know someone
we'll who has achieved po-
sition of eminence.
But to really know Cardi-
nal Stritch, as most of those
who have been associated
with him have discovered, is
almost impossible. This, des-
pite his child-like simplicity
of spirit and a gracious
friendly manner that quickly
puts at ease the most self
conscious.
But he is deceptively simple
in that the depths are impen-
etrable and, after years Of
i knowing him, you might not
know him better than you did
at the first meeting.
His deep humility and kind
ness, however, are obvious to
anyone. Basically a shy man,
he is particularly at ease with
children and frequently will
halt a procession to visit with
a delighted child.
Sometimes when he
walks in his neighborhood
- the long daily walks he
used to love are still anOth-
er casualty of his increas-
ingly hard schedule - he
is charmed by street chill
dren who run up and call
out Hi Cardinalv'
"How are you today?" he
will inquire. OK, they shout
as they dance around him.

Mass Meetings

\ Though the Society never fails to keep
\up with the times, the Croatian Frater
nal Union still espouses certain 'old fash
oned practices" of constructive nature.
The most important of these are Mem
bership Campaign Mass Meetings, public
gatherings devoted to the discussion, in
simple language, Of it's adult and juvenile
life insurance certificates, it's sick benefit
and disability plans of protection, and other
facets Of the organization which should con-
Germ every member.
Years ago such Mass Meetings generally
played to "SRO" houses wherever they
were staged in the United States or Canada
We know. We addressed few on both sides
of the border in our time and enjoyed every
single one of them.
Why not, then, revive this "old fashion
ed practice" on large scale?
THERE ARE many reasons why Mem
bership Campaign Mass Meetings should
be held this year in every American and
Canadian locale with real recruiting po-
tential.

understand insurance than at gathering
addressed by 'officials from the Socety's
Home Office at Pittsburgh or other officers
of the Croatian Fraternal Union located
elsewhere in America?
For another doesn't it stand to reason
that Mass Meeting is the logical place to
pose questions regarding any phase of the
Society and have them answered?
Where but at a Mass Meeting can you
go into the organization at large?
At a Lodge Meeting, to some extent,
But rarely with the satisfaction that comes
with participating in Mass Meeting de-
voted to EVERY aspect of the Society.
Why not, then, Membership Campaign
