Our Society today ranks a

Recruiters At Work
The hour of parting came
all too soon. as we had to
travel to Indianapolis, Indi-
ana, to attend the Indiana
Fraternal Congress, a good
259 miles away.
Once more my sincerest
thanks to the committee for
the lovely corsage presented
to me, to the ladies through
whose diligent efforts a deli
cious supper was served, and
to all who contributed to my
very enjoyable stay in St.
Louis.
A fine historic city, a fine
Croatian colony. AS a mem
bership campaigner, I was
most pleased to note, too, that
even during the celebration
two Of our members also had
the campaign uppermost in
their minds.
Brother Walter Grbcich,
Secretary of Lodge 167
handed us a $4,000 20 Year
Endowment m e m b e rship
application in the Junior
Order, and Brother John
Narancich, Secretary Of
Lodge so, had five member
ship applications.
The membership campaign
closes December 31st, but
there is still time to bring in
new members.
It is my sincerest hope that
this successful undertaking is
just a beginning for more eff
forts through the Central
Committee of the CFU Lod-
ges in st. Louis.
We are all members of a
great fraternal society and it
is good to have many lodges,
yet there are times when in
unified efforts a larger group
working together for the best
interest of the Croatian Fra
ternal Union can accomplish
more. :
St. Louis has proven that it
can be re-activated, and no
doubt the members will con-
tinue to work in the spirit of
fraternalism so that our
mighty organization will pros
per throughout the United
States and Canada.

the harbor was well sheltered
and it looked like the kind of
landing place they were seek

Bring her alongside that
rock" said Captain Miles
Standish.
The tiny boat, it's mast split
in three places, turned it's side
to the grey December sea and
drifted up against the great
boulder. The intrepid Standish
stepped over the gunwhale
and planted his foot on the
New England granite.
The boulder was - Ply

For the Pilgrims, it was
"the end of the beginning"
Behind lay persecution, exile,
and the momentous decision
to seek religious freedom in
the uncharted New World.
Ahead lay hardship, death,
and Immortality.
Mayflower Compact
It was four days before
Christmas when Standish and
his small group of men went
ashore at Plymouth.
They returned to the May
flower, anchored off Pro-
vincetown, with the good
news that a site for the new
settlement had been found.
On December 26th, 1920,
the Mayflower, Drawing high
wintry winds, made a sue
cessful passage into Plymouth
Harbor.
The Mayflower had set
out for America on Septem-
Der 16, 1920, with 1O2 pas
sengers. On November 19,
land was sighted.
A few days later the Pill
grims met in the cabin of the
ship and drew up the famous
"Mayflower Compact, estab-
fishing themselves as a civic
body under a government of
law.

uments in mankind's search

GARY, Ina. - Inc CenCrdl
Committee of st. Louis LODI
ges, composed of Lodges 40,
so, 157 and 167, sponsored a
Program and Dance Sunday,
October 25th, in honor of the
65th Anniversary of the Gro
attain Fraternal Union of
America.
1t was indeed an unexpec-
ted pleasure to be the guest
of honor and speaker on this
occasion, as for quite some
time it has been my desire to
visit the historic city of ST..
Louis - which is the gate
way on the. Mississippi River
to the South.
The month of October is
a particularly pleasant time
of the year to drive through
Illinois and Indiana, as Mo-
ther Nature provides a We
ry colorful countryside.
But Saturday morning, Oc-
tober "a, proved to be a rainy,
dreary day, and as my travel
ing companion, sister Kathe-
rine Mrzljak, and | started
out the drive south did not
look promising; however, as
we approached st. Louis the
sun came through the clouds
and was the first of many
welcome gestures extended to
us during our stay in the city.
We Meet Old Friends
Upon arriving at the Stat
ler Hotel we were most plea
sanity surprised with a tel
ephone message waiting for
us from brother Robert Po-
tocnjak and his lovely wife
and we already had letters
from our members Philip and
Olga Yakir and Anton Vlat-
kovich, all extending their
hospitality.
In addition, since we are
members of the "Preradovic"
Singing Society, we were also
acquainted with the singers
of "Vila" Singing Society who
also extended their hospita-
Iity, of which we are appreci-
alive and thank brother Nick
Iadrich.
Sunday morning we a
woke to a very pleasant
surprise - a basket of
fruit from the hotel man.

brother Robert Potocnjak
for introducing us to the
hotel management which
made our stay very plea

We then hurried to St. Jo-
seph Church for Mass, fol-
lowing which we had the plea
sure of meeting the pastor of
the Church and a number of
parishioners who are also
members of the Croatian Fra
ternal Union, and in the hall
we found some members of
the arrangements committee
already working.
Here we were greeted by
brothers John Narancich and
Imbro Robich, whom we had
seen just a few weeks previ-
ously during the CFU Con-
vention in Detroit.

Younger Set Out
To Learn Folklore

Gary Member Asks
For Helping Hand
PITTSBURGH, Pa. - We
received a letter recently from
Miss Mary De1nik of Shafter
California, which as she
states is about 20 miles from
the city Of Delano, the site OF
C.F.U. Lodge 73O.
She wrote to Steve Pavich
the president Of said lodge
and had an appointment to
see him. They met and she
found out that the younger
set is interested in getting
their children to learn Yugo-
slavian songs, dances, skits,
etc.
Mary Dernik wrote, 81
used to do some singing, just
a little folk dancing and some
skits that our Catholic school
put on when I was a little
girl and feel that I can easily
get back on the track.
She goes on to ask for
Information or leads to OBJ
tanning Croatian songs,
folk dances, films, readers
and skits which we sup
piled in material or as to
source thereof.
Quoting her further, "We
need something that will give
the young ones an interest in
the land Of their ancestors
and their customs. The young
ones, no doubt, will 60 along
in learning; but how much
more pleasant it will be if they
can be given a readiness
session instead of blindly
plunging them into some.

Still quoting her, II teach

first and second graders -
my! how the little ones are
eating it up. After seeing
how these children learn, it
gave me the incentive to do
something about our Yugo-
slavian children who have
a start from already hearing
the language at home. The
group in Delano is interested
and I am willing to 60 along
to learn and then pass it on"
Mary Dernik, as we
found from the Home Of
flee records, is q member
of Gary, Indiana, Lodge
727. As to when she emil
grated to California, we
know not her but for this
bit of first correspondence.
She seems very enthusiastic
which can go a long way. I'm
doubtedly she is a welcome
addition and impetus. May
she in behalf of C.F.U. acti-
vity and Croatian culture
have the full support from the
Lodge 730 members in Del
ano, California.
The few lines here devoted
to her attempts in that direc-
ton are but a fair compliment
due to Mary Dernik.

Speech Was Bilingual
The master of ceremonies
was Robert Potocnjak Of the
so-called younger genera
ton, who executed his duties
so admirably that the mem
bership can be happy to have
such a fine fraternalist in
their ranks, one who will car
ry on our fine traditions.
Following the welcome ad-
dress by brother Matt Anto-
Mich, President of the Central
Committee, a fine concert of
Croatian songs was presented
by "Vila" Singing Society of
Hrvatski Sokol Dalmacija,
under the direction of Ivan
Lusicic.
The singers, and the Ko-
10 dancers led by Anna Lu-
sicic, all dressed in Croa-
tian national dress, were
given a hearty applause by
the audience.
Following the introduction
Of all the lodge presidents and
secretaries, the writer was in

Yakir, former member of the
CFU High Trial Board and
for years an active member of
Lodge so, who in his speech
reminisced back to the 7th
and 9Th Conventions of the
CFU.
We thank brother Yakir
for his complimentary intro
duction. It was indeed a
pleasure to be once again with
our fraternalists Philip and
Olga Yakir whom we had the
pleasure of meeting at several
Conventions of the CFU.
A Memorable Affair
AS the honored guest and
speaker Of the day, my speech
