Fox hunting is now in full swing the
traditional season being. from November.
when crops are harvested, through March.
when the new growing season begins.
Area fox hunts seldom end fatally for
the fox, simply because there are too many
places for cunning Reynard to den up"
after he's tired of leading hounds and
hunters on a merry chase, Mr. HutchiSon
reports. But on just about every hunt, a
fox is scented, and we almost always have
an exciting chase" he says
In foxhunting England where the
chase is the national sport, small terriers
are used by many hunting clubs to dig out
foxes who hole up" in their dens. But in
America, it isn't considered sporting, Mr.
HutchiSon says
The Redland and other hunt clubs in
Maryland - Potomac, Howard County,
Goshen and Iron Bridge are carrying
on tradition that dates back more than
300 years in the Free State In fact the
-hrst reference to fox hunting in America
dates back to 1850, when Robert Brooke
came to Maryland from England in his own
ship with his family and servants and a
pack of hunting hounds. Mr. Brooke con-

national in scope, we are publishing to-
day on page 10 the names of all 10th Con-
vention Delegates under the heading of the

In our recapitulation on the same page
of the strength of the various delegations,
it is interesting to note that Pennsylvania S

Anniversary of the Croatian Fraterna

Judging from all reports and bearing
in mind that this is Convention year the

the largest crowd ever to tax it's facilities
before day is done Sunday, Aug %.
The Central Committee Of Chicago
Lodges represents one of the largest such
groupings within the framework of the Gro

Fifteen Lodges are represented in the
Committee: "Sveti Nikola" "a, Chicago;

Put them all together and you have a
large group of members - young and old
- who represent the hopes and aspirations
of the Croatian Fraternal Union 1t is to
them and their counterparts all over Amer
lea and Canada that the Society must look
for it's continued existence.
They may not agree on everything, but
they are fraternal brothers and sisters un-
der the skin. Which is all that matters.

GUS states for each and ev-
cry position.
The incumbents are accord
ed the right of being men,
bers of the Convention with
the permission to enter into
discussions, make motions
and run for office.
They do not however have
the right to vote. Under the
present bylaws they cannot
even seek position in the
leadership of the Convention,
for that is exclusively a dele
gates prerogative.
There is no doubt then that
You, the members, run this
organization. 1t is Yours in
every respect.
Radiant COuntenance
Our CFU is the product
of the concentrated efforts of
hundreds Of thousands of our
people, over a period of many
years, to develop a house of
brotherhood.
That house has been the
source of mutual help and
the motivating force for the
perpetuation of all that is
good and great in our price
less heritage.
In a word, it is the radiant
countenance that we as a
group present to the world!
It is the full bloom of all our
fraternal facets which could
reach such proportions only
in America.

the money or see him fired
by the bank. The young ar

and returned the money and
the teller was a happy man.
Banker Pleased Man
Naturally Via ho was
pleased with the order from
the San Francisco banker,
even though he didn't tell
the young artist what sort Of
a picture he wanted.
Giving deep thought to
what to paint for his state
side friend, Vlaho said to
himself "Why not a painting
Peasant woman carrying q
basket on her back
This would be sOme-
thing new for the banker,
although Vlaho himself had
seen these women practi-
cally every day carrying
grain and grass in these
baskets to the market for
little birds.
When he finished the
painting he took it to Prof.
Cabanel, as he always did,
and heard the famous tutor
say that he liked the work
very much. He then mailed
the painting to Mr.. Parrot,
who liked it as much as the
professor.
Mr.. Parrot later sent Vlaho
a sealed letter and instructed
him to take the painting to q
Mr.. and Mrs. Rathbone, who
were visiting Paris at the
time.
He paid the couple a visit
and showed them Mr.. Par
rot's letter. They received
him in a very cordial manner
and Immediately ordered two
portraits.

that in time. Just be a little
more careful and sincere and
everything will work out al
right"
Vlaho remembered what
the professor said and fol-
lowed his advice.
Several days later he COM
pleted a sketch of the head of
Apollo of Belvedere an d
showed it to Cabanel.
Said the professor: That's
good. Very good, very, very
good"
Young Bukovac's h e a d
spun with the compliment.
Support From States
Probably through the Lus-
tig family, who befriended
him during his visit to the
States, Vlaho's friends back
in San Francisco learned that
the young man was studying
art in Paris. They wanted to
help him.
Among the first who an
nounced he wanted to lend
Vlaho a helping hand was a
banker by the name Of Ii
burcio w. Parrot, who sent
him an order for one picture
and offered to pay 1000
francs for it.
Vlaho soon received the
check from the banker. He
then went to the bank and
cashed it. However, he did
not bother to answer Mr..
J Parrots letter at the same
time and a bit later the
banker mailed him q dupli-
cate Of the check, not
knowing that Vlaho had
already cashed the origi-
nal.
Not realizing that it was a
duplicate, Bukovac went to
the same bank and cashed the
second check. The teller did
not pay close attention to
what he was doing. So he
made 4 mistake.
When the mistake came to
light the teller told Vlaho

Pioneer Member Dies
ApriI 18Th In Warren
After Lengthy Illness

WARREN, Ohio - Croa-
tian Fraternal Union Lodge
1872 is sad to announce that
one of our old and faithful
pioneer members, bro. Mar
tin Scrbek, passed away on
April 18, 1859, after an ex-
tended illness.
Bro. Scrbek, who was re-
tired from the Mullins Man.
ufacturing Company, was
born November II, 1879, in
Shemovits, Yugoslavia, the
son of Mike and Mary Vinko-
vic Scrbek.
He came to the United
States in 1902 and married
the former Mary Horvat
August II, 1907.
Bro. Scrbek first became
affiliated with the CFU
when he joined Lodge 328
i'm DOnora, Pa, in 1907. He
also helped organize Hrvat-
ska Zajednica Lodge 1856 in
Donora in 1917 and held
the meetings in his home.
In our own Lodge 1872 he
had been very active until his
health failed him, serving al
treasurer, recording secreta-
ry, and auditor. In 1857 he al
so celebrated his Golden An
niversary as a CF'U member
and Lodge 1872 presented him
with a gift of $50.
While living in Titusville,
Pa, in 1913, he helped organ
ize Lodge 5O6 and in 1925 he
was elected Delegate to tho
CFU Convention.
A resident Of Warren for
81 years, he was also an hon.
orary member of USW Local

Bro. Scrbek is survived by
his wife, Mary; four daugh-
ters, Mrs. Martin Socak, Mrs.
George Stankich, Mrs. Steve
Bubon, and Mrs. Anthony
Ferderber; a son, Samuel
Scrbek; 20 grandchildren and
9 great-grandchildren.
A Requiem High Mass was
celebrated by Rev. A. Konar-
ski at the st. Joseph Church,
Tuesday, April 21, and burial
was at St. Joseph's Cemetery.
Fraternal services were
held at the cemetery by Lodge

WE DO NOT propose even

WE DO NOT propose even
w to suggest that our great
Union is perfect in every re-
spect for perfection is not of
this world. There are short
comings and faults and mis-
understandings, but the or
ganization is yours.
And, we can all feel free to
criticize. Sufficient construc-
tive criticism will bring it to
as near perfection as is hui
manly possible.
One of the organizations
most valuable functions and
services has been the truism
that it has given us an iden-
tity, a oneness which could
not have been possible other
wise.
1t is now almost three
quarters of a century since
our people began coming to
these shores. 1t is more
than a score of years since
that influx has practically
ceased.
1t isn't difficult, therefore,
to imagine what would have
happened to us as a group by
now. We would have been lost
in the melting pot without
having had the opportunity of
making our contributions to
the cultural pattern that is
America.
We would have been dilu-
Ted in the swift stream of So
cio-cultural currents which
can be channeled only by the
strength and unity that we
command as an entity of
10000 members.
Continental In Scope
AS we pointed out in pre-
vious chapters, even the name
of our nationality would ne
yer have been known here.
It has been the Croatian
Fraternal Union that has
publicized our nationality des-
pite the fact that an indie
pendent Croatia has not been
in existence for close to 900
years.
It has been our CFU which
has served as the vehicle for
the perpetuation of our proud
culture and for it's integration
into that cosmopolitan whole
which America is proud to
claim for it's own.
Our fraternal empire ex-
tends from the Atlantic to
the Pacific and from the
frigid regions of the Alas
kan and Canadian north
land to the tropical expanse
of the u. S.
One can travel from city tc
city and in practically every
one of these he can find a
fellow CF'U member, be wei.
coined with open arms.
The affinity which binds III
has no equal. There is hardly
an excl who cannot relate
at least one instance of meet
ing a fellow CF'U member ir
just about every corner Of
the globe. That common
membership was an immedi'
ate bond of close friendship.
Your Command Post
We've seen some old timer,
on their first visit to Pitts.
burgh and the C.F.U. head
quarters.
The light in their eyes re-
fleets the not-to-be-hiddeI
pride in membership for thil
is 1.-THE fountainhead d
that fraternalisIn which hal
motivated their entire lives
from the very first days d
their arrival in America.

She will arrange to have the
