IN THE parlance of the street, what

in the life of Croatian Section Editor Of
the Zaiednicar bro. Philip Vukelich could
not happen to a nicer guy.
For on that day the Western Pennsylva-

And Why Not?

THE SOCIETY'S United Lodges of Cleve-
land. Ohio, have long dreamed of one
day owning picnic grounds, and other faci-
crowds which turn out for the groups an
nual "Fraternal Day" fetes.
This dream has become even more vivid
IN recent years - or since the United Lod-
ges hit upon the idea of sponsoring Popu-
larity Queen Contest in conjunction with
their "Fraternal Day" celebrations and
reaping therefrom whirlwind of dollars
to work with in the future.
Still, there are some in Cleveland who
can't see the United Lodges as owners of
their own outing grounds, club rooms, rec
reational facilities, and the like.
And why not?
Others have done it in the past with
far less cash in the TILL

. The CFU's Western PENNSYLVANIA
United Lodges came into their own grounds
several years ago on the strength of the
income from their annual "Fraternal Day.
fiestas and Popularity Queen Contests.
True, these grounds and facilities -
known as the Croatian Center = are not as
yet "out of hook" But they will be as sure
as tomorrow is Thursday, May %, 1858
Or take the Croatian Singing Society
'Strossmayer' of Youngstown, Ohio, as
another excellent example of what can be
done when people realize that where there's
a will, there's way.
BY no means financially independent as
an organization, the members of this choral
group will on June 20, 1858, formally open
their own picnic grounds . to be known
as the "Croatian Center Strossmayer' and
dedicated, in the words of the members, ITO
all the Croatian people,
Why not, then, the near future dawning
of such day in Cleveland, Ohio?
No one can convince us that our men,
bers in Cleveland aren't up to undertaking
the purchase of picnic grounds of their
oWn that it just isn't in them
We know better than that

Ignorance No Excuse
Some system to determine
w h a t the trainees learn
should be devised, coupled
with a QUESTIONABLE, at the
onset, Of what the proposed
trainee already knows.
1t would aid the instructors
as to what material to cover
and what portions require
special emphasis and hand
ling.
Probably the most impor'
tant segment of the whole
program is how to induce the
younger members to take the
training.
Often their reluctance to
assume responsibility in a
Lodge is directly proper
tional to their ignorance,
not necessarily admitted, of
the C.F.U.
Training would give then
confidence to assume duties
that would, in all probability
stimulate the interest of ma
ny to become really active
members.
Rules of Procedure
Coupled with the factua.
presentation, it is of equal
Importance that the trainees
be taught how to use their
knowledge.
Techniques Of selling, pub

methods should be incorpor

And, for this time last

We don't mean to imply
that we should strive to make
all trainees expert parlimen

should have at least a ru-
dimentary knowledge of

How To Do 1t
One of the best ways to
select a physician is to locate
a good hospital In your town.
Ask it to give you the names
of several doctors on its staff.
For this you telephone the
Office of the medical director
or the superintendent. An
accredited hospital chooses its
staff most carefully.
Another way to choose a
doctor is to write or tele-
phone your county medical
society and ask for the names
of physicians.
A competent family physi-
clan will know when you need
a specialist. or may suggest
one for your peace of mind.
He also will help you locate
one.

All of fashion is a passing

Here How
To Pick
A Doctor
BY JOSEPHINE BOWMAN

Register and Tribune Syndicate
In a recent Public Affairs
Pamphlet, your Family's
HEALTH" Stella B. Apple
baum, health educator and
writer says, Much needed
loss of life and health can
be avoided if we devote at
least as much attention to
the upkeep of health as we
do to our cars and homes"
In this publication Miss
Applebaum m axes many
practical suggestions con-
corning the welfare and
safety Of the family.
There is nothing more i'm
portant than the selection of
your family physician. Yet
many women give more
thought to the selection of
a piece of furniture. I think
many folks just do not know
how to go about selecting a
physician.
Warnings
The following are some Of
the warnings in this par
ticular Public Affairs Pamph-
let.
/. Don't wait until illness
strikes to find your doctor.
2. Don't pick a doctor just
because he is nearby, or the
one your neighbor Or friend
Swears by.
3. Don't ask the poSt.nan
or your neighborhood drug
gist to recommend one and
don't select one yourself at
random from a telephone
directory.
4. Don't choose Doctor x
because you have heard that
his fee is high and therefore
he must be good, or Doctor
Y because his fee is low and
you will save money.
5. Finally, DON'T pick the
doctor with the winning per-
