RAZNO IZ AMERIKE IN INOZEMSTVA PREDSEDNIKOV GOVOR Predsednik Roosevelt je na irečer 4. marca, to je na četrto obletnico svoje prve inavguracije, nastopil z izredno bojevi-j tim govorom za reorganizacijo vrhovnega sodišča in za nadaljevanje newdealskih aktivnosti. Omenjenega večera se je vršil slavnostni banket v proslavo, smage demokratske stranke, tola predsednikov govor pri tej priliki je bil bolj namenjen na- j rodu v splošnem kot zbranim gostom. Po predsednikovem mnenju je reorganizacija vrhovnega sodišča neobhodno potrebna, če hočeta kongres in administracija izvesti reforme, ki so bile narodu obljubljene pred volitvami. Dosedaj je konservativna večina vrhovnega sodišča ovrgla večino kongresnih sklepov, ki so se tikali splošnega ljudskega blagostanja. Predsednik je poudaril, da je treba delati zdaj, ker povodnji, prašni viharji, štrajki, brezposelnost, pomanjkanje in druge neprilike ne čakajo, ampak zahtevajo takojšne aktivnosti. Sarkastično je omenil, da divje reke in prašni viharji se ne menijo za določbe ustave in tudi ne za državne meje. Voditeljem demokratske stranke pa je predsednik posebej poklical v spomin, da naj ne pričakujejo, da bodo čez štiri ; leta spet praznovali zmago, če;' ne bodo izpolnjene obljube, ki" so bile pred zadnjimi volitvami i i dane narodu. VELIK USPEH UNIJE Podpis pogodbe med Carne-gie-Illinois Steel Corporation in j med reprezentanti Lewisovega ( odbora za industrijsko organi- , zacijo smatrajo delavski krogi , za največjo zmago v zgodovini ameriškega delavskega gibanja. Druge jeklarske kompanije, ki zaposlujejo okrog 350,000 delavcev, so istočasno zvišale plače in skrajšale delovni teden na 40 ur. Boj za priznanje unije v i jeklarski industriji se je vršili dolga leta in jeklarske družbe' so se vedno trdovratno ustavljale. Vsled tega je pretekli teden! izvojevana unijska zmaga prišla za javnost skoro nepričakovano. John L. LeWis pa se je z omenjeno jeklarsko družbo že več časa pogajal za priznanje, unije in je končno uspel VSE SE IZPREMINJA Veliki finančniki, ki so bili do; nedavnega skoro dosledno pro-; ti organiziranju delavstva, počasi spregledujejo. Te dni sta dva finančna magnata, ki sta v ozki zvezi z Morganovimi interesi, izjavila, da bo v bližnji bo-dočnost;- pretežna večina ameriških delavcev organizirana v industrijskih unijah Lewisovega sistema. Priznala sta tudi, da je John L. Lewis danes V veliko večji meri voditelj ameriškega delavstva kakor William Green. Zastopniki Lewisovega odbora za industrijalno organizacijo in zastopniki General Electric kompanije se bodo 15. marca pričeli pogajati za priznanje u-nije in glede drugih delavskih i zahtev. i Pogodba med United Mine > | Workers in premogovnimi druž-. bami bo najbrž brez štrajka ob-- novljena in delavci upajo dobiti znatne ugodnosti. i Dalje na 4. str.) ODMEVI IZ RODNIH KRAJEV REDKI STOTAKI Samo dva stotaka je videl v svojem življenju in drugi je bil —ponarejen. Pred banjaluškim sodiščem je bil obtožen kmet Avdo Kalaba zaradi razpečavanja ponarejenega denarja. Z revnim kmetom se je grdo poigralo muhasto naključje. Lani v jeseni, ko je na planini pasel ovce, je našel denarnico, v kateri je bil bankovec za 100 din. To je bil drugi stotak, ki ga je Avdo videl v svojem življenju. Denarnico je moral izgubiti kak turist ali pa kak tihotapec in Avdo se sploh ni trudil, da bi iskal lastnika. Bankovec je kot kak zaklad dolgo hranil doma, pred tedni pa je prišel ž njim v neko trgovino. Trgovec je denar vzel, a takoj poklical orožnike, ki so presenečenega in prestrašenega kmeta zaprli. Pred sodiščem so mu povedali, da je obdolžen razpečavanja ponarejenega denarja. Avdo je sodnikom povedal, da on pač ne more ločiti pravih bankovcev od ponarejenih, ker je videl v svojem življenju samo dva stotaka. Verjeli so mu in , ga izpustili. SVOJEVRSTNI EKSPORT Izvoz žab, polžev in pijavk. Po dobro uspelem izvozu polžev : iz Medmurja in Prekmurja v , inozemstvo se zdaj pripravlja . izvoz žab. Kakor polže, bodo tu-• di žabe izvažali večinoma v Francijo. Doslej so tja izvažali \ že žabe iz Dalmacije, največ iz ) okolice Metkoviča. Ker so med-l murski kmetje spoznali koristi velike izvozne akcije in so pri j izvozu polžev precej zaslužili, so se z veliko vnemo lotili novo iz-e vozne akcije. Žabe morajo žive uloviti in jih žive prinesti na postaje, kjer se zbira to eksport-no blago. Tam žabe ubijejo in j jim odsekajo krake. Ostanki se j preparirajo za hrano perutnine. I V Medmurju in Prekmurju pa ^ bodo lovili tudi pijavke, katere bodo tudi izvažali v inozemstvo. VISOKA STAROST V vasi Živinici blizu Tuzle je umrl v starosti 103 let Ibrahim j aga Topučič. Pokojni je bil naj-t starejši Bosanec in poznala ga je vsa Bosna in Hercegovina, ^ ker je mnogo potoval in ker ni 1 zamudil nobene konjske dirke. r [ Topučič je bil premožen gospo- 1 g dar. Kupčeval je tudi s konji 1 jj in ni zamudil nobenega večjega L sejma. Čvrst in veder je bil do 1 svoje smrti. Istega dne, ko je ' umrl, je bil zjutraj še v vaški * kavarni, kjer je pil črno kavo in se z drugimi gosti razgovar-jal o lokalni politiki. Ko se je * vrnil domov, je spet naročil, naj ' mu skuhajo kavo. Ko so mu ka- 1 vo prinesli, je sedel na svoji ( preprogi in žena je mislila, da 5 dremlje. Šele čez nekaj časa so J 'opazili, da je mrtev. Starec sc je * po zapovedi svoje vere vse svoje ' življenje izogibal alkoholnih pi- 1 jač, popil pa je vsak dan mno- * go črnih kav in pokadil preko 100 cigaret. Oženjen je bil 24- 1 krat in imel je celo trumo o-trok,. Živijo še zadnje tri njegove žene in 38 otrok poleg mnogoštevilnih vnukov in pravnukov.

VSAK PO SVOJE Kdor je vajen jesti v restavracijah, ve, da, je španska ome-leta jajčji pečen jak, kateremu je primešanih toliko različnih dišav, začimb in drugih predmetov, da je težko spoznati temeljno sestavimo jedi. Nekaj sličnega je španska civilna vojna, v kateri je toliko tujih primesi, da, bi je ne mogli imenovati špansko vojno, če se ne bi vršila na španskem. »H »h 3|s Popolnoma brez opozicije tudi sedanja Rooseveltova administracija ne bo. To se je pokazalo takoj pri prvem administracijskem predlogu, ki je bil sprejet v novem kongresu. Za predlog so bili namreč oddani 404 glasovi, proti pa eden. :jc * Sedeči štrajki so postali nekaj običajnega v tej deželi. Is-totako je postalo običajno, da policija preganja sedeče štraj-karje z bombami solzavicami. Čudno pri tem pa je, da sedeči štrajkarji dosedaj še niso prišli na idejo plinskih mask. »It s*: V legislaturi države Missouri jfe bil vložen predlog, katerega namen je postavno preprečiti pomlajevanje mul. Sleparski mešetarji namreč prodajajo stare mule za mlade, ko so jim prej opilili zobe in pobarvali dlako ter jih tako pretvorili v L nekake flaperice svojega rodu. .

Tako vsaj trdi dr. Frederick Til-ney, ki je priznana avtoriteta z ozirom na razvoj človeških mo-žgan. Po njegovem mnenju so se človeški možgani tekom milijonov let razvili komaj do ene četrtine. Ce je ta trditev resnična, kar je zelo verjetno, je naša povprečna pamet še tako rekoč v plenicah, zato ni čudno, če ga tako lomimo. Cez par milijonov let bomo pametnejši. * ne * V mesto Syracuse, N.

Voz- (Dalje na 4. str.) DOHODNINSKI DAVEK Do 15. marca 1937 in ne kasneje morajo sledeče osebe vložiti dohodninske prijave (income tax returns) pri federalni davčni oblasti -(District Collect- , ors of Internal Revenue): Vsak posameznik, ki je 1. 1936 1 imel čistega dohodka $1,000 ali več, ako je samec ali samica ozi- ! roma, ako je poročen, pa ne živi skupaj z ženo oziroma možem. Vsak posameznik, ki je imel čistega dohodka za leto $2500 ali več, ako je poročen in živi skupaj z drugo zakonsko polovico. Vsak posameznik, ki je tekom leta imel sirovega dohodka $5000 ali več, neglede na to, koliko znaša čisti dohodek. Posamezne prijave za čiste dohodke, ki ne presegajo $5000, večinoma zaslužene s plačami ali mezdami, se napravljajo na mali tiskovni Form 1040A, v dvopi-su. Za dohodke, izvirajoče iz posla, profesije, nepremičnin itd., je treba rabiti večjo tiskovino Form 1040. Samska ali pa poročena oseba, ne živeča skupaj z drugo zakonsko polovico, ima pravico do osebne oprostitve (personal exemption) $1000. Kdor živi z ženo oziroma možem, je upravičen do odbitka $2500. Ista oprostitev velja tudi za “družinske poglavarje” (head of a family), namreč osebe, ki dejanski vzdržujejo v eni domačiji eno ali več oseb ožjega sorodstva. Poleg osebnih oprostitev sme davkoplačevalec odbiti po $400 za vsako osebo, ki je manj kot 18 let stara ali drugače nesposobna za zaslužek in ki je v glavnem odvisna od davkoplačevalca za svoje vzdrževanje. Ne sme se pa odbiti za ženo oziroma moža. Ako je davkoplačevalec prispeval za verske, dobrodelne ali prosvetne svrhe, smejo se odbiti ti darovi, treba pa je navesti ime teh organizacij, v nekaterih slučajih smejo se odbiti tudi o-\ bresti, plačane za osebne dolge. Ko se izračuna davčni znesek, | sme se odbiti 10'}( čistega do-' hodka, v kolikor je bil ta zaslužen. Ako čisti dohodek ne znaša ( več kot $3000, se vse smatra kot “zasluženi čisti dohodek.” Treba je prijaviti plače, mez-- de, provizije, obresti na bančnih j vlogah, zadolžnicah, bondih itd. Kdor skuša oslepariti vlado s ’ tem, da zamolčuje dohodke in odbija neupravičeno, je podvr-žen strogim kaznim. Tu navajamo nekoliko prime- ■ rov, kako se izračuna davek na | manjših dohodkih: Samec, ki nima nikakih odvis- ■ nih ožjih sorodnikov, je 1. 1936 zaslužil $1300. Prejel je obresti ■ na hranilni vlogi v znesku $50. Skupni dohodek je bil torej $1350. Odbije lO1/, kot kredit za “zasluženi dphodek,” torej $135. Osebna oprostitev znaša $1000. $1350 manj $1135 je $215, za; kateri znesek mora plačati 4 od-sto. Njegov dohodninski davek bo torej $8.60. Poročena oseba, ki ima dva nedoletna otroka, je 1. 1936 zaslužila vsega skupaj $3000. Po odbitku 10% za zaslužek preb-stane $2700. Osebna oprostitev znaša $2500 in on je nadalje i upravičen do odbitka $400 za j vsakega otroka. Odbiti sme to- • rej $3600 in torej ne dolguje ■ nikakega davka. Mora pa ven- • darle vložiti prijavo, ker je nje-, I gov dohodek znašal več kot ■ $2500. (Dalje na 4. str.) STRAH RREZ PODLAGE j Mnogi ljudje imjajo strah ali bojazen pred gotovimi predme- i ti ali situacijami, ne da bi imeli i pravi vzrok za to. Dr. David < Mitchell, znani newyorski psiho- c logist, ki je študifal take poja- c ve, trdi, da se 16 procentov ljudi boji teme, drugih 16 procen- ; tov se boji bliska in groma, 12 , procentov ljudi ima strah pred ) vodo in utopljenjefn, 4 procente ( ljudi pa se boji višin. Znanstveniki sodijo, da je o-troku prirojena samo dveh vrst > bojazen. Vsak otrok se boji ne- < nadnega krika, ropota, poka ali '■ treska, in vsak .otrok se boji padca, če čuti ali sodi, da se mu opora izpodmika. Vse druge bojazni pa izhajajo! iz kakih dogodkov v otroških letih, iz stra-šenja itd. Znanstveniki pravijo taki bojazni fobija (phobia). Zanimivo je čitati kake bojazni imajo razni* znameniti ali 1 sploh bolj znani ljudje. Filmska igralka Greta Garbo, na primer, se boji ljudskih množic; njena bojazen se znanstveno imenuje ochlophobia. Francoski pesnik Beudelaire se je bal biti sam. To je bila autophobia. • Igralka Joan Crawford ima dveh vrst bojazen. Boji se teme in višin. Na hodniku pred njeno sobo mora ponoči vedno goreti, luč. Dalje neče potovati v aero-planih in sobe v hotelu neče vzeti višje kot v sedmem nadstropju. Jean Harlow |e boji odprtih prostorov. Pesnik in pisatelj Billy Rose se boji zaprtih an ozkih prostorov. Vsled tega ima velikanski urad prav v zgornjem nadstropju newyorškega nebotičnika. Mnogi ljudje se boje biti sami v mali sobici, nekateri se boje, da se pod posteljami skrivajo roparji, nekateri se boje psov ali maček, nekateri imajo pretiran strah pred nesnažnostjo in bacili itd. Malo je ljudi, ki bi ne imeli kake bojazni ali mržnje do gotovih predmetov ali situacij. Pri nekaterih je ta bojazen lahka in komaj občutena, pri drugih pa težka, da zahteva svojevrstnega zdravljenja. Ljudje, pri katerih je ta ali ona “pho-1 bia” resno razvita, dostikrat res trpijo, dasi se sami zavedajo, da je njihova bojazen brezpredmetna in nesmiselna. Znanstveniki so dali takim nesmiselnim bojaznim in strahovom čudna in skoro strahotna imena. Tako je strah pred: bliskanjem astrapophobia; strah pred gromom je keraunophobia; strah pred mačkami ailuropho-bia; strah pred kačami ophidiophobia; bojazen iti preko mosta je gephyrophobia; strah, da bi človek ne bil živ pokopan, je taphophobia; bojazen biti trinajsti pri mizi je triskaidekapho-bia; strah pred delom pa je er-gasiophobia. Tega zadnjega strahu je menda kolikor toliko v vsakemu izmed nas! NAZAJ K NARAVI Človek je prav tako produkt narave kot je divja praprot v gozdu, le da se je s svojo tako zvano civilizacijo materi naravi bolj ali manj oddaljil. Posebno so se naravi odtujili prebivalci velikih mest, ki pa zato tudi plačujejo s svojim zdravjem in drugače. Resnica je vsekakor, da je skoro v vsakem, tudi najbolj mestnem človeku ostalo neka; 1: hrepenenja po vrnitvi k naravi. To se izraža v tem, da po-‘ i sebno v poletnem času ljudje si-Mijo v prosto naravo, v parke ’ gozdove, na farme ter na obrež-(Dalje na 4. str.) 0 KLOGO LAŽNIVCEV V Burlingtonu, Wisconsin, so pred leti ustanovili “Klub laž- t nivcev”, ki si je pridobil že sve- t tovni sloves. Iz Zedinjenih dr- p žav, Canade in drugih delov sve-, 1» ta pošiljajo temu klubu najraz- l ličnejše laži, to je izmišljotine, v Cim bolj gorostasna je izmišljo- c tina, tem več velja. Ob koncu t vsakega leta je tekma za pr- p venstvo lažnivcev zaključena in, \ kdor se je najbolj “pokadil”, do- 1 bi zlato medaljo in za eno leto naslov največjega lažnika. Lan- t sko leto je bilo Klubu lažnivcev k poslanih nad 6000 prispevkov, i Neka ameriška revija je nedav- t no priobčila vrsto najbolj zani- ] mivih. Izmed njih so v nasled- c njem nekateri v prostem prevo- j du podani tudi čitateljem Nove { Dobe. ' i Na jugu večkrat razsajajo 1 ! tornadi, ki si včasih poleg obi-! čajnega razdejanja privoščijo * tudi kakšno praktično šalo. Ta- ! ko zabavo si je privoščil torna- ^ do, ki je na zadnji božični dan ‘ divjal preko Alabame, če bi smeli verjeti Mrs. C. B. For-man. Vihar je namreč razvoz- , I ljal novo božično kravato Jur ija Poddlewotterja v Attalli in jo odnesel v sosedni county, kjer jo je lepo obesil okoli vratu Ju- ^ rijevemu bratrancu Elmerju, ‘ kateremu je bil pozabil poslati božično darilo. ( Earl F. Kemp, ameriški vojak v Ft. Assiniboine, Montana, pripoveduje, da je tam tako mr-* zlo, da vsako leto okrog 1. januarja odleti v južne kraje kukavica iz stotnikove kukavičje ure. Naravne sile v Sagadahoc countyju v državi Maine, ne poznajo nikake prave mere. Leta 1880 je skoro neprestano deže-1; valo in bilo je toliko vode, da so otrokom, ki so skakali in brozgah po vodi okoli, zrasle plavalne kožice med prsti na nogah, kakor racam. Tako vsaj pripoveduje C. F: Thompson iz Richmonda, Me. Spomladi je včasi tako hud veter, da prevrača sveže zorane brazde na njivah nazaj na prejšnja mesta. Pa tudi v jeseni imajo tam včasi tako hud veter, da na farmi Thompsonovega strica trga zrela jabolka z jablan in jih s tako silo meče na streho skednja, da je treba samo pod strešni žleb podstaviti sod, v katerega se nateče sladki jabolčnik. V North Carolini imajo po izjavi J. R. Millerja včasih tako gosto meglo, da če farmer poseka drevo, isto ne more pasti na tla, dokler se megla ne razkadi. ; Včasih pa je megla tako gosta, da ko se dvigne, odnese posekano drevo s seboj v višave. Farmer Albert Holtz živi v Canadi na kraju, kjer se zbirajo divje Vace in gosi. Lansko leto je posejal veliko njivo s pšenico in gorčico skupaj. Ko je pridelek dozorel, ga je pustil na njivi, in obilno deževje je kmalu ] izpremenilo pšenično in gorčično zrnje v velikanski gorčični | obliž ali mustard plaster. Ta obliž je bil tako močan, da je 1 pritegnil nase vse divje race in (! gosi v tisti okolici in jih držal, , da so jih lovci poljubno pobira-L li. S pristojbino, katero so lovci plačali farmerju za ta privi-t legij, si je mož zgradil novo hišo in kupil nov avtomobil. ; Spick Lyman iz Maringuina - Louisiana, piše, da voda reke - Atchafalaye teče tako neznan-i sko hitro, da odnaša s seboj ce lo sence, ki jih mečejo na vode ob reki rastoča drevesa. c B m iiiHiiiiiHiiiiiiiiiimiimiiimmmiiiiiimHiiii]iiiiimmiiii<>iiiimiii>iinm>iiiii^ m MLADINSKI ODDELEK - JUVENILE DEPARTMENT S RIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllIllIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllUIIIllllIlllllIllllllllllllIIUIIHIIIIIIIIIllllllIinillllllllllllllflK; A Day For Dolls in Japan The Run-Away Rabbit SULTAN IN ŠOLARCEK Nekega dne se je sprehajal iAog<$| sultan Mustafa po carigrajskih uli^| pregovoriti, zaukaže, naj prineso S®.| Ko je bilo za sto udarcev vse I1' I pravljeno, pa prične deček: “Vis0 • car, zaukaži, da dobim jaz en uda^ | a ostalih devetdesetdevet pa naj | bi tisti, ki čuva tvoja vrata, kei' | ni hotel pustiti .v palačo, dokle;' ^ nisem obljubil, da si razdeliva1 j ve, ki jih dobim od tebe.

CIGAN BI BIL RAD KUM Živel je reven kipar. Imel je polno , hišo dece pa malo zaslužka. Ko se mu je rodil deseti sin, ni nihče od sosedov r hotel kumovati revnemu kipurčku. - To je zvedel mlad cigan. Rad bi bil , ,kum. Sel je h kiparju, a doma je do-, bil samo njegovo ženo. Prišel se je ; ponujati za turna; do večera se je i-kiparjeva žena otresala neljubega ku-, ,ma, a vsiljivca ni mogla odgnati. Pod večer se je s semnja vrnil ki-' par. Ustrašil se je cigan njegovega v, prihoda in ker ni mogel ven, se je ,, skril v kiparjevo delavnico ter se pomešal med bronaste kipe. *. Zena je pošepetala kiparju, kako in kaj. Mož je molčal, vzel železno pa-i lico, odšel v temnačno delavnico in ; sam pri sebi mrmral: ' “Dobil sem naročilo od samega go-i spocla dekana. Jutri zjutraj mu moram poslati velik kip. Biti pa mora dobro vlit ..." < Tako je kipar govoril in po redu “tolkel s palico po bronastih kipih, da .. bi izbral najlepši glas. Ko je prišel , do cigana, ga je krepko oplazil. Cigan "je pogoltnil bolečino: ne duha ne slu---ha o bronu... Obrnil se je kipar k ženi in zavpil v kuhinjo: : “žena, ta vlitek se mi je pa pone- srečil. Brž zakuri v peči, da ga prestopim in prelijem v čistejši in glas-.'iiejši bron!" j.ega se je cigan seveda močno prestrašil. Prekobalil se je čez kiparja in '•'na vrat na nos izginil skozi dveri v "•črno noč. Bežal je in kričal: ' “I-Iaril si me, haril. ne boš me v kotlu paril!" ............ Tako se je kipar ostresel nadležnega ciganovega kumstva. — 2. CIGAN IN GOSPOSKI OBED Prišel je cigan h gospodu in dejal. ; '“Gospod, koliko cenite zlato bučo, veliko ko konjska glava?" m. Gospod je mislil, da ima cigan tolikšno kepo zlata. Prijazno je posadil Dolgana za mizo ter ga nasitil in napojil z najslejšim «a»ce»n. Poypj je ..’vprašal cigana: "Kje imaš zlat p, J*u-' 'čor c Cigan se je pa začudil: “Hoj, gospod, [■.jaz je nimam! Le vedeti sem hotel, ko-;.liko je vredna.” S Gospoda je pograbila huda jeza in ‘“plosnil je cigana po licu. Pa je poskočil cigan: “Hoj. gospod, ::vi ne znate šamariti! • Vam bom jaz •■pokazal! ” In-lop! po gospodu. Nato ">je izginil. C, Ko je prišel cigan v taborišče, se je Oz obema rokama objemal za siti tre-■ buh. To je opazil njegov brat in ga '.vprašal: Kje si bil, moj črni brat?” S*. Povedal je siti cigan lačnemu, kje je 'gosposko obedoval in pil. '! "Kaj si pil?” “Zganjarico!" ' “Kaj si jel?” “Vsega, kar sem poželel!” -'» Kolcnilo se je lačnemu ciganu po gosposkem obedu. Tako drugi dan se (,je odpravil h gospodu, da bi še on ' ’’gosposko obedoval. *' Ali komaj je prestopil prag gospodove hiše, že je priskočil gospod ter pri-"čel kričati: "Hej, ciganče, včeraj si "'dejal, da ne znam šamariti! čakaj, boš videl, da sem se že naučil!” In vso posodo, kar je bilo" na mizi, je zmetal v prestrašenega cigana. — Tako je cigan plačal grehe svojega “brata. — 3.

Sc, tisti dan Je cigana ponovno srečal. Lepše ko prvič ga je mislil pozdraviti, ko je del: ^Pozdravljen, brate!” Cigan pa mu je prijazno odzdravil: "Pozdravljen, gospodine!” MARCU *' March derives its name from Mars, the god of war. Mars was originally, according to the Greeks, the god of 'storm or hurricane, but this side ol 'ills power was soon overlooked in hie rule over warfare. He was a fierce and terrible god, taking pleasure in slaughter and massacre. Strife was usually 'by his side, and his steps were attended by dread and alarm. On the other hand we are told by, old myths that at times he loved quiet and calm, and itfter' the battle he would repair to the side of Aphrodite, the goddess of love, and this association to indicate the quiet and calm that usually follows the turmoil of war. The Romans considered themselves the actual descendants of Mars, believing him to be the father of Romulus and Remus, the founders of Rome. The attributes of Mars were a spear and a torch; the animals chosen as his symbols were the dog and vulture, the constant visitants of the battlefield. But Finally He Got Very Brave And Came Up Close To Sally. Weeks afterwards when Thanksgiving and Christmas and New Year’s Day were long past, Sally and Beth and their father went out for a Sunday afternoon walk. They went past the village and out into the real country. Suddenly, as they were walking along, Sally exclaimed, “There’s a bunny that looks exactly like Jump-away only he’s bigger!” Beta looked where Sally pointed and she too exclaimed, “why it is; Jump-away! I’m sure it is, only he's grown up bigger 'en ever!” The girls left the road and ran into the field where the rabbit was. He didn’t run from them, he just stood still and watched carefully as they came nearer and nearer, as though he would like to be friendly, but he'd have to be sure first what they meant to do. Then, when the girls were almost up to him. what do you suppose he did? He stood straight up on his hind legs like his little mistresses had taught him to do! “Look father! Look!" shouted both girls, “It’s Jump-away! See him?” It took quite a little coaxing to get Jump-away to come near enough to touch, but finally he got very brave and came up close to Sally. She gathered him up in her arms and carried him home and there he stayed, happy and content with his mates. Sally and Beth often wondered just how he got away and why he went, but that wise little rabbit tells no tales on himself. But whatever was his reason for going away, it’s very evident that he is glad the girls found him and brought him back. Perhaps that’s because ho has such good mistresses who never once forget his food and fresh water. Mano G. BORI TIHI Bori tihi, bori tožni s snegom si srebrijo veje, mrzel veter čez poljane v lice borom se zasmeje.

It comes on the third day of March, according to our reckoning, and is called O Hina Sama. It would seem a strange custom indeed to our girls but they could not help enjoying it, for the most wonderful of dolls are on parade and the queerest of things are eaten in honor of the occasion. Sometimes in February, each year, doll's fairs and bazaars open in all the cities and villages in the Flowery First, she places the Emperor and the Empress, arrayed in gorgeous brocades, in a commanding position above the other dolls. The mannikin Emperor carries two swords and the tiny Empress has her eyebrows shaved off and replaced by inked lines. Below them she places three beautifully dressed dolls known as the "maids of honor,” and near them are tiny vases of flowers and a miniature bottle of wine. These are to be served to Their Majesties, figuratively of course, whenever they desire them. Below the maids, at the right and Kingdom. And on the stalls of the 1 vendors are displayed the most fasci- t nating dolls you ever saw, complete \ wardrobes for them, tiny sets of dishes t and miniature furniture. e Always, there are dolls dressed to i represent the Emperor and the Em- l press, with their court attendants, at t prices ranging from about one dollar t to two hundred, according to the purse c of the prospective buyer. And every t doll fits into a beautiful white wood box as snugly as you please, to keep it from breaking. On the morning of the great festi- * val, the little Japanese girl is up as early as you are on Christmas morn- i ing, to arrange her dolls, in order of their rank, on the "high seat of hon-or” which is a dias to be found in 1 every homo of any pretensions in 1 Japan.

And then if the girl’s father is wealthy enough to afford it, there are placed around them any number of court ladies and gentlemen dolls in full court dress. But always, no matter how poor the parents may be, there are the dolls representing the Emperor and the Empress. By the side of the dolls are set forth the tiny dishes and miniature furniture for the supposed use of the dolls. There are miniature bowis of soup and rice, tea steepers and chop sticks. The guests themselves eat rice-cakes, nio-chi, which is a kind of sweetmeat, and drink a thick, syrupy wine permitted the children only on this occasion. Ivan. V'uk-Staro'gorski: ' ZVITI CIGAN V našo vas, ki je v Prlekiji, so prišli nekoč cigani. Postavili so šotore kar na travniku, zakurili ogenj in pripravljali večerjo. Zakaj bližal se je večer. Ko smo otroci gledali tiste šotore, brkate cigane in ciganke, ki so metale karte in prerokovale bodočnost, je rekel moj dedek, sedeč ob podstenji naše hiše: "No. otroci, ali bi radi vedeli, kako .-.o cigani zviti ljudje?" Seveda smo brž posedli okrog dedka in kričali: "Dedek, dragi dedek, povej nam, povej!" "No le pridni bo;iite in me poslušajte. Povedal vam bom zgodbo o ciganu Janušu in kako je opeharil bo-■atega kmeta.” Potegnil je iz vivčka gost oblak dima in začel: — Živel je nekoč cigan. Bil je srednje velik. Nerati je delal vsakdanja dela, ali rad je jedel dobre jedi. Bilo mu je ime, kakor sem že rekel, Januš. Vdinjal se je pri kmetu Krašovcu v Sovjaku. Ko je stopil pred kmeta, je rekel: "Gospodar in kmet, glej, lačen sem , in uboga ciganska para sem. A'i močne roke imam. Hočeš te roke?" Kmet Hrušovec je pogledal roke in cigana ter odgovoril: "Roke bi že vzel, roke, a tebe. ciga-; na, bi ne vzel rad.” Cigan Januš pa je naredil grenek obraz, kakor znajo to samo cigani, in je rekel: "O, če bi mogel, dal bi ti sunilo roke. Zakaj one bi delale, jaz bi pa počival. Tako pa, glej, so one priraščene k meni in jih ne morem • odtrgati. Bulo vzemi, gospodar in kmet, tudi mc- ■ ne. da boš imel roke.” Kmet Hrušovec je nekoliko pomisli. In ker je potreboval hlapca, je rekel : “Naj bo, ci.van Januš.* ali kakor li je že ime, l:er ni drugače. Vzamem , tvoje roke, ker se te držijo. Ali. moral , boš tudi ti delat i i .njimi." f "Bom," je odgovoril cigan Januš, f "zakaj rad delam in kolikor mi peč 5 dopuščajo roke, ki se me držijo.” 1 In tako se je zgodilo, da je clpan ■ Januš slušil pri kmetu I-Irušovcu. Fri-/ den je bil in kmet je bil zadovoljen z - njim. Svojim sosedom je večkrat re-r kel: ! "Nobenemu ciganu ne bi, verjel, da 1 rad dela. No ta moj Januš pa je dela-s ven. Prav zadovoljen sem z njim.” In vsi so mu pritrjeyali, rekoč: : "Najdejo se tudi izjeme, kakor po- j vsod. In zakaj bi naj ne bil cigan Ja- ■ nuš izjema med cigani.” Nekoč je naročil gospodar in kme! • Hruškovee svojtmu hlapcu ciganu Ja ! nušu: "Hej, Januš, nekaj imam za tebe." "Kaj takega, oča Hrušoveč?" "Poznaš kmeta Lančeka v Strigov-skl grapi?" “Kaj bi ga ne poznal. Tisti, ki, prai šičke kupuje.” “Da, tisti. Imam namreč prašička.’ Nosi mu ga in prodaj.” Cigan Januš je pokimal z glavo: “Dobro.” Kmet Hrušovec mu je naložil prašička v vrečo. "Ko mu ga oddaš,” je naročil kmet. mu izroči moj pozdrav in Lo pismo. V pismu mu pišem, koliko mi naj plača za prašička.” Hlapec, cigan Januš, Je šel. Pot je š'a skozi 'gozd. In ko je tako ko: a kal .;kozi gozd z vrečo, v kateri je bil prašiček, obešeno preko rame in je prašiček mrjavkal, je rekel sam pri sebi: “Daleč je tista štrigovska grapa. In zakaj bi nosil prašička tako daleč, ko pa imam tudi pismo, v katerem stoji napisano, da je prašiček. Zato bo gotovo bolje, če ga jaz pojem. Tako st prihranim težko breme." Rekel je In ker je bila takšna njegova ciganska narava, je odložil prašička, ga zaklal, zakuril ogenj in ga spekel. Ko ga je spekel in snedel, je šel dalje. Prišel je h kmetu Lančeku v štrigovsko grapo. "Kaj pa prinašaš," je vprašal Lanček Januša. Januš mu je izročil pismo. Kmet Lanček je vzel pismo in čila 1. "Kje pa imaš prašička?" “Kaj ni v tem papirju,” se je čudil civ’.an Januš. “Gospodar in kmet Hrušovec mi Je izročil in rekel: “Nesi tega prašička kmetu Lančeku v Štrigovsko grapo.” Vzel sem in šel, in glej, izročil sem ti. Zdelo se mi je res, da je to pismo za prašička nekoliko prelahko. Ker sem pa močan, poglej moje roke in ker so prašički različno težki, sem rekel: "Ne razglabljaj, Januš, kar ni tvoje delo, nego stori, kakor ti je naročeno." Kmet Lanček je videl, da je cifean Januš zvit dečko. Potuhtal je in ker je bil sam vesel človek, je rekel: “Dober hlapec si, Januš, a še boljši cigan. Odpočij se pri nas. Kateri iz naju dveh bo sanjal nocoj najlepše sanje, ta dobi pečenega zajca, ki ga ima kmetica, moja žena.” Cigan Januš je pogledal in rekel: "Hvaležen ti bom, kmet Lanček, za tvojo gostoljubnost, ki je tudi češče-na pri nas ciganih. Ce smem vprašati, povej mi, ali že imaš zajca,-ki mi ga obljubljaš?” “To te pa naj ne skrbi, cigan Januš. Saj še ne veš, če boš imel lepše ■sanje ti ali jaz?! Zakaj potem/ že hočeš vedeti, če ima moja žena zajca?" "Ne zameri,” je rekel Januš. “Mi ci-■’■•aifl si ne delamo upov na nekaj, kar še ni gotovo. In če bom vedel, da ima tvo, a žena že zajca, bom skušal z večjim veseljem lepše sanjati kot ti.” Kmet se je nasmejal in rekel: "O. poznam vas, cigane. Premeteni ■■'te, bejinbogme. No, da boš lažje sanjal, ti povem: Zajec je že pečen in leži v peči. Zato le mirno spi.” Cigan je pokimal z glavo, češ, da je zadovoljen in šli so spat. Ko so vsi He climbed out of the car to show them. Of course, the girls didn’t wait, i They stepped up on the running board I and peeped into the back, and there1; they saw—not a thing but a half < bushel basket of freshly cut grass! I They were so disappointed they could I not help but show it, and that made Unile Tom laugh. ; “Don’t you like grass for a pres- I ent?” he asked teasingly, “well, all i right the” I'll take it back." "No you don't, Uncle Tom,” replied i Sally, who hud noticed the twinkle in . her uncle’s eye and who suspected i that more than mere fresh grass was in the basket. “We’ll take your grass' -and whatever else you have too,” < she added. "All right then, young lady,” said her uncle, “seeing you want it so badly—look!” Very carefully he lifted the basket out of the car and set it on the ground. Then, very carefully and tenderly he laid aside the top layers of sfrass and showed the girls what lay underneath. “Oh!” exe'aimed Beth happily, “are they for us?” “Can we touch them and hold them and have them for our own?” asked Sally. Uncle Tom nodded yes, so Sally reached out her hand and picked up the tiniest, softest, gayest little rabbit she had ever seen. He looked exactly like a tiny bit of fur and until you saw his pink nose you never in the world would suspect that he was really truly alive. Beth picked up another little rabbit and snuggled him close up under her chin. "I’m going to have this one fo,’ mine,” she announced, “ ’cause I love him so much.” “And this one is mine,” said Sally. “And what will you do with the other one?” asked Uncle Tom, for still another lay in the bottom of the basket. . “We’li have him for both of us,” j-.ug^ested Sally. “That’s a good idea," said Uncle Tenu "but I must be going now. Better leave them in the basket though, till, you get their old rabbit house fixed over. They like to sleep in that Sally and Beth lived in a pretty town some miles away from a big eity. They very much enjoyed the ields and woods and all the out-of-i ioor things they could see and do. Of i course, that meant they had animal j pets. In their own big back yard their iather had built for them a row of 1 houses that the girls’ animal friends eould live in, and everybody in the 1 family called it "Friendly Row." There was a comfortable room for the Scotty > pup, who was the girls’ very best friend; a tidy little home where Mrs. Tabby, the big motherly, gray cat could peep out in the yard if she > wished, though usually she wished to stay nearer people; three houses for 1 the chickens, and a row of small houses for rabbits. And each animal 'aad his or her own little yard in front of each house, where he could play and enjoy the sunshine in peace and quiet without being bothered by • any other creatures. 1 The rabbit houses had been vacant • i for a long time, ever since big brother Jim started to college. Of course, he eame home for vacations, but, much to the girls’ surprise he didn’t seem to find rabbits as interesting as before. Anybody who has a big college brother knows just how queer they are. So the rabbit houses stayed neglected and lonely till last summer—and that’s when this story truly begins. One morning Sally and Beth were weeding their gardens in the back yard when they heard a loud “honk! honk!” out in front. “That’s Uncle Tom’s machine!” exe'aimed Sally, as she hastily brushed the dirt off her hands, “let’s run tell him to come and see our gardens." "Let’s,” agreed Beth, enthusiastical-1 ly. And she too brushed the dirt off her hands, and both girls hurried " around to the front yard. "No,” said Uncle Tom, replying to their Invitation. "I can't stop even to ; look at fine gardens just now. I’ve got to fly along. But I thought maybe you’d like to see what I have in the e back of the car here." 1 soft grass. It was in a pile of it on ; our front lawn that I found them this i morning, so I know they like grass.” Uncle Tom had no more than driven away before the girls began work I on the rabbit house. They cleaned it till it shone; they made a bed of • grass for each rabbit; and they fixed ’ a cup of water and a dinner of let- > tuce and carrots from their own gar-: den. Then, when father had come : home and had seen the new pets and r had approved the changes in the rab-t bit houses, the rabbits were taken out . of the basket and put in their new t home. ; They seemed to like their home and 3 new mistresses very much for they [' ate and grew just as comfortably as 1 well behaved rabbits should. And as 1 they grew bigger they ran around the i little yard the girls’ father fenced off 3 for them and learned to do several ; tricks the girls taught them. Sally 'f named her rabbit Hippity-hop, Beth named her’s Lippity-lop, and the one t which belonged to both, they called r Jump-away because he was so very e shy and modest. o But .one thing Jump-away could do > better than the other two was a cer-:. tain trick the girls taught him. He r wouldn't come close to anybody, and 0 he wouldn’t run and show off the d pretty hippity-hop step that rabbits s have and which the girls loved to watch but he was the first of the e three to learn to stand up on his hind It legs when the girls asked him to and ! as a result he got a big reward of lettuce for being so obliging and willing. One afternoon in the very late fall, :1 only two rabbits were in the rabbit 1 yard—Jump-away was nowhere to be found.

Before be-8 1 wish to thank all who were MLADINSKI DOPISI Contributions From Our Junior Members to responsible for my award which I received for the poem appearing in the December issue of Nova Doba. I fully realize my tardiness in thanking you all, but like the old saying “better late than never.” At this time I also wish to thank Justine Korent for her lovely letter and Little Stan for his encouragement to continue to write. EVERYTHING POR THE BEST Harry and Agnes Bently are good friend« of ours. Dad works with Harry and when he decided to quit and throw in with an uncle of hers, we were sorry to see him go. He’d never met this uncle who was a big shot out in what we Broadway rubes call vaguely “the West,” but they had swapped letters and Agnes was sure this was Harry’s chance of a lifetime. We went to Grand Central with them and saw them off on a Chicago'express. A week later when we all had plenty of time to miss him, for he’s a shark with figures, he walked in sheepishly and asked the Jdoss if he could hang up his hat again. That was a year ago, and it wasn’t until the other day that Harry referred to that quick round trip. I said, “We sure are glad you came back, Harry, but we all thought you were sewed up for life with—what was the name of that outfit?” “Hoosier Tool and Tackle Company. Agnes’ uncle is the vice-president, general manager and biggest stockholder— but-er-er we just didn’t hit it off together.” He grinned. “I admit I did get off to a bad start, but he didn’t have to keep on making sarcastic wise cracks and introducing me to everybody as his absent-minded nephew. I stood it for three days, then I told him where to go.” Harry chuckled. He said, “There’s "a yarn connected with it. Sort of shows you the importance of the first impression, for bear in mind I never saw the old boy until, well, I’ll begin on the train, going out." “Our car,” said Harry, “was about in the middle of the train. I told Agnes I was going up to the club smoker just for one cigar; but it so .happened I got talking with, some of the lads and it went into time. “Now I’m no more absent-minded than the next fellow, but I will admit I often act upon impulse. Well, the first I knew, the train was slowing down and pulling into a station. Then I realized how long I’d been gone, and it struck me as a good idea to bring Agnes some kind of a peace offering. "So I hopped up and put my cap on. I always, wear a cap on train trips. I was in the vestibule when the train stopped, and asked the brakeman how long we had. He said, five minutes. Just enough time to pick up a nice box of chocolates and get back aboard. “I shot into the station, bought a big box that came to two sixty, and gave the girl the only money I had on me, a five-dollar bill. She was fresh out of chance and I had to wait. I heard the ‘Board! All Aboard!’ call as she came back, and shoving the change into my pocket I sprinted to the platform. “The train was pulling out. I ran for the steps of the car White Cloud, where Agnes and I had our section. The train was picking up speed real fast, and just as I made up to brag for the handles I saw the darned thing was going so fast that I would have burned my hands, granting I could have hung on. “The rear car zipped past me, but I kept on running, hoping somebody aboard would see me and signal the conductor to slow down. “But no. I was pretty well pooched, for I’m too stout for a long sprint. Sc I decided to go back to the station. (To be continued) Albena Nosee No. 132, SSCU STRABANE, PA Dear Editor: This is the letter which I planned to write about a year ago. But better late than never. I am a freshman at Canonsburg high school and a member of locjge No. 149. Mr. Terbovec, editor-manager of Nova Doba may remember me as the girl he encouraged to write for the juvenile section some six or seven years ago. I will tell you about the moving pictures shown in our school about two months ago. The movies showed the Olympics which were held in Germany last summer. Included also were the pictures of athletes arriving and the Olympic village itself, which was specially constructed for the event. Each group of athletes had their quarters arranged in their native style. Pictured also was the arrival of the Olympics torch. Jesse Owens in a workout was very interesting, and the track meets very impressive. The movies also showed the diving exhibitions with the American team leading the field. Gymnasts appeared to be going through their paces very rapidly. However, the most welconie of all objects on the screen was the picture of the American flag floating over the Olympic altar. This signified the fact that the Americans ranked first, second or third in some contest. The American flag appeared in this position quite often, and was generously applauded. These pictures were taken by a track coach of a Pittsburgh University. Helen Zagar Pittsburgh, Pa. — Dragi g. urednik:— To je moj prvi dopis v slovenskem Jeziku, zato mi gre bolj težko. Velika noč je že za vogalom, katera nam prinese pisanih pirhov in sladkih potic. Za njo pa pride zeleni Jurij in z njim vesela pomlad. Vse, mlado in staro na pomlad oživi. To pomlad bomo pri 'naši Jednoti i-meli kampanjo za pridobivanje novih članov v mladinski oddelek. Upam, da bo kampanja uspešna in nam pridobi mnogo novih članov. Kdor bo pridobil zadosti novih članov v odločenem času, bo šel kot delegat ali delegatinja v krasno Minnesoto. 0 izredno varčnih Škotih je mnogo pripovedk. Naj še jaz navedem eno kratko, ki se mi dopade: “Škotu se je škoda zdelo izdati denar za izkušenega delavca, ki bi mu popravil puščajočo streho. Zlezel je torej sam na streho, toda izgubil je ravnotežje in z glavo navzdol letel na dvorišče. Ko je letel mimo okna, je zavpil: Alice, danes pa r»alo manj skuhaj, ne bom več z vami obedoval!” K sklepu pozdravljam vse mladinske dopisnike in dopisovalke, pa tudi vas, g. urednik! Mary Zugell (13 let) društvo št. 26 JSKJ. SAIJDA, COLO. Dear Editor: This is my first letter to the Nova Doba. I have finished my eight grades of school and am fourteen years old. It is windy in this section and very little snow. I always read the letters written by other juvenile members. I like them and hope that I will be able to write to the Nova Doba every month. 1 live on a farm about four miles from town. Dad keeps me busy with his work. In conclusion I send my best regards to all the members and to you Mr. Editor. JoeTancik (Age: 14) No. 78, SSCU. GILBERT, MINN. Dear Editor: This is my first letter to the Nova Doba. I have been reading other contributing letters for a long time, and now I too started to write for Nova Doba. The weather here is very warm with the temperature between thirty and forty degrees above zero. The snow is melting away quite fast and the roads are very slippery. Let’s hope the ice will be either covered soon or done away with so as to avoid accidents. I like school very much this year. Of all my subjects I like swimming and cooking best. As Easter is nearing I want to send my best wishes for a happy Easter to all members of the juvenile department. Mary Kozel (Age: 12) No. 20, SSCU. ELY, MINN. Dear Editor: This is my first letter to the Nova Doba. I am going to be eleven years old in March and am attending the fifth grade. My teacher’s name is Miss Staxine. I like to go to school and jump in the snow. We have lots of fun playing around. Santa Claus gave me lots of things for Christmas. In school I received many Valentines including one from my teacher. I like to read the letters and poems in the Nova Doba. Here is a poem I am submitting: BARBARA FRETCHIE Up from the meadows rich with corn, Clear in the cool September morn; The clustered spires of Frederick stand, • Green-walled by the hills of Maryland. Round about them orchards swayed, Apple and peach threes fruited deep. Pair as the garden up above appeared To the eyes of the femished rebel horde On that pleasant morn of early fall When Lee marched over the mountain walls. Mary Zupin (Age: 10) No. 1, SSCU many delegates of the last convention will try to win a place again. Personally, I am also going to try to win a place as a full fledged delegate. Well, the old sun was shining today making many people happy. I think that summer is marching this way already. Thanks to “Vicky” Kumse who sent me a beautiful valentine. The valentine spirit isn’t what it used to be. I remember the happy days I enjoyed during Valentine season while in the lower grades. Then it was celebrated with a nice party and ended by passing out the valentines. But now let’s look ahead when the scent of Easter bunnies and Easter eggs will fill the air. It’s a lot of fun coloring and putting pictures on Easter eggs. And now to change the subject, let’s laugh at this joke. If you heard this one before, laugh anyhow for it will do you more good than harm. Sonny: Mother, look at this green snake. Mother: Leave it alone. It might be as bad as a ripe one. I wish to thank the Editor and other officials Who made it possible for me to receive the one dollar check for my article that appeared in the January issue of the juvenile section of Nova Doba. Well, the basketball season is over, and by reading Little Stan’s article you found out who the winners are of the SSCU tournament. Many people attended the games. So “Vicky” Kumse thinks I’m going to be a Little Albert, eh? It might be so, but the name will be different. What name would you suggest. The history of Ely written by Justine Korent was interesting. Although I know about it I enjoyed reading it. Albina Nosse’s story is also interesting to read. Now it’s time to say goodbye and good luck to all.

Dear Editor: , This is my first letter to the Nova Doba. I am nine years old and in the fourth grade. My teacher's name is Miss Lindberg. I like to go to school and play in the school yard. We had a play for Valentine’s Day and the boys and girls derived a great deal of pleasure from the play. I have two sisters and a baby brother. Here is a poem I am enclosing: MR. NOBODY I know a funny little man As quiet as a mouse. He does the mischief that is done In everybody’s house. No one ever sees his face, And yet we all agree That every plate we break Was cracked by Mr. Nobody. Jennie Zupin (Age: 9) No. 1, SSCU CORNWALL, PA. Dear Editor: This is my second letter to the Nova Doba. I was very glad to see my story in the paper. Spring is coming sAon, and with it comes to my mind the following poem. I hope you will like it. A BIRD Come, little bird with a yellow bill, Come, sit upon the window sill. And if you are good to me, I’ll make a nest for you in the tree. And every morning when I get up, I won’t forget to spread the crumbs of bread. And when you are finished eating, You will soon roll yourself In a little heap and fall asleep.

XIII. tj«.ni' ; 101f NO. 10 DVA MILIJONA Dandanes govorimo o milijonih kakor so naši predniki govorili o stotakih. Vendar je milijon tako ogromno število, da si to komaj predstavljamo. Ako bi kdo imel milijon dolarjev v- bankovcih po en dolar in bi jih hotel lastnoročno prešteti, dalo bi mu to dobrih deset dni dela po dvanajst ur na dan. In pri tem bi moral biti dober, nezmotljiv števec. Seveda, milijondolarske ali večje vsote se navadno ne štejejo in izplačujejo v bankovcih po en dolar. V take svrhe se rabijo bankovci ali vrednostni papirji višje vrednosti. Največkrat pa se take vsote plačujejo s čeki in se denar sploh ne prenaša sem in tja. Banke potem preskrbijo, da se denar kreditira pravemu lastniku in da se ba-lanca denarja prenese iz ene v drugo banko, kjer je to potreba. Slovenci smo prilično majhen narod. Računa se, da nas je vseh skupaj okrog dva milijona. Od teh jih je približno en milijon v Jugoslaviji, okrog pol milijona v Ita-^ liji, okrog četrt milijona v Zedinjenih državah, ostali pa' so raztreseni po raznih državah na vseh kontinentih tega planeta. Menda je ni države na svetu, kjer ne bi našli vsaj enega Slovenca. Premoženje J. S. K. Jednote znaša nad dva milijona dolarjev, to je toliko, da bi lahko vsakega Slovenca na svetu obdarovali z enim dolarjem. To premoženje lastuje naša Jednota, ki je skupina, katera šteje nekaj nad 20,-000 članov v obeh oddelkih. Vse to premoženje so skupaj spravili člani JSKJ potom malih mesečnih prispevkov. Za tako malo skupino je to vsekakor lep uspeh. Razume se, da je največji del vsote dveh milijonov dolarjev v smrtninskem skladu. Dotični sklad se ne sme rabiti v nikake druge svrhe kakor v izplačilo smrtnin. Državne postave so v tem oziru stroge in neizprosne, kar je popolnoma pravilno. Le na ta način je mogoče garantirati vsakemu posameznemu članu, da bodo dediči po njegovi smrti dobili, kar je obljubljeno v pravilih in certifikatu. V prejšnjih časih, ko državne postave v takih ozirih niso bile tako stroge, se je zgodilo, da je ta ali ona podporna organizacija propadla. Dediči tistih članov, ki so “dovolj zgodaj” pomrli, so dobili, kar jim je šlo, stoteri ali tisočeri drugi člani oziroma njihovi dediči pa so ostali na cedilu. Člani so morda svoje prispevke vestno in točno plačevali dolga leta, končno so se pa za vse tisto obrisali, kot pravimo. Danes se tega ni bati. Državni zavarovalninski de-partmenti zahtevajo, da mora biti organizacija stopro-centno solventna. Eksperti preračunajo solventnost organizacije na podlagi zbrane rezerve, na podlagi obresti, ki jih ta rezerva prinaša, na podlagi asesmentov, na podlagi članske umrljivosti in na podlagi povprečne starosti članov. Ako eksperti pronajdejo, da je organizacija stoprocentno solventna, pomeni to, da je v normalnih razmerah vsak član siguren, da je vsota, za katero je zavarovan, gotova in varna, in da bo izplačana, kadar pride čas za to, ne da bi bilo zaradi tega treba dvigniti smrt-ninski asesment. Solventnost J. S. K. Jednote znaša nad sto procentov, kar pomeni, da je organizacija na trdni in zanesljivi finančni oziroma gospodarski podlagi. Poročila, ki jih sestavljajo državni pregledovalci in ki so od časa do časa priobčevana v našem glasilu, potrjujejo solventnost Jednote in sploh njeno odlično gospodarsko stanje. Bratje in sestre, gori nkvedena dejstva naj vam služijo za argumente, kadar agitirate ža nove člane. K temu še lahko dodate vestnost in točnost v glavnem uradu, nestrankarsko stališče Jednote in njenega glasila in splošen ugled, ki ga uživa organizacija med rojaki, pa boste lahko izpodbili vse ugovore morebitnih nasprotnikov ali omahljivcev. Ni treba nič pretiravati, samo resnico povejte o J. S. K. Jednoti! Nikoli tudi ne skušajte agitirati za našo Jednoto s tem, da bi črnili, obrekovali ali omalovaževali druge organizacije. Vse obstoječe organizacije so na svoj način, potrebne in bodo še potrebne za dogleden čas. Vse imajo svoje vrline in svoje odličnosti. Predstavite prospektivnim novim članom vrline naše organizacije, vse drugo pa prepustite njihovi razsodnosti. Komur sistem kake druge slovenske organizacije bolj ugaja kot sistem naše Jednote/ naj pristopi k drugi. To je vseeno bolje, kakor da bi se zavaroval pri kaki tuji, neznani organizaciji ali pa pri nobeni. Mi moramo in hočemo biti gentleineni. Hvalimo pvo- VSAK PO SVOJE (Nadaljevanje s 1. strani) nik je vse priznal, kot olajševalno okolščino pa je navedel, da je on sam ženin, poleg njega pa je nevesta, spremljevalca da sta drug in družica in da se prvo imenovana hočeta poročiti. Mirovni sodnik je olajševalne okol-ščine upošteval ter je ženina in nevesto brez odlašanja poročil. Kazen za kršitev prometnih predpisov je odpustil, ker je menda sodil, da sta ženin in nevesta dobila dovolj veliko, življenjsko kazen. * * * Selitev spada med največje pokore modernega časa. Kadar je človek nekje nastanjen, pogreša sto reči, ko se pa seli, je vsega preveč. Ne vem, kakšna je španska civilna vojna, toda zdi se mi, da mora biti na gotov način podobna povprečni selitvi. To posebno z ozirom na razdejanje in puščobo, katero pusti na starem prostoru, in na idealno zmešnjavo, katero povzroči na novem mestu. V začetku te'ga meseca smo selili opremo in arhive Nove Dobe v nove prostore in bilo je čudovito. Skoro kot takrat, ko se je Haile Selassie selil iz Addis Ababe. Samo brez marel! Za prevoz pisarniške opreme je bil najet unijski prevažalec in je obljubil priti določenega dne in ob določeni uri. Dva dni prej pa se je nenadoma pojavila nevarnost sedečega štrajka pre-važalcev in treba je bilo izvršiti prevoz v poznih popoldanskih in nočnih urah, predno napoči u-sodna ura štrajka. Vse se je srečno izvršilo, kljub temu, da je bila selitev na neki način podobna selitvi civilistov iz Madrida. Tu sicer niso pretile bombe, ampak štrajk, ki se je točno po napovedanih paragrafih pričel. Nova Doba mu je svojo selitvijo ušla za las. Pri tem sem se spomnil napovedi svetovne vojne in poročil v časopisih, kako so državljani nevtralnih držav, bivajoči v državah vojnega stanja, dirkali proti domačim wig-wamom, da udidejo eksploziji. Zavedam se, da je današnja vsebina te kolone zmešana in hazardno skupaj zmetana kot sračje gnezdo, toda če bi cenjeni čitatelji videli v kakšnem neredu sem jo pisal, bi mi ne le o-prostili, ampak celo prisodili kakšno medaljo ali zaslužni križec. Nered v slavnem uredništvu oa bi primerjali španski revoluciji. V ta idealni uredniški nered pa se je oni dan pr ismejala lepa deklica s prav tako lepo košarico svežih cvetlic. Glavno vlogo so igrale rdeče in rožnate ciklame, okrasek pa so tvorile zlato-rumene južne akacije. V cvetju pa se je skrivala kartica s sledečim besedilom: “S tem šopkom vam pošiljamo želje za veliko dobrih idej za članke in druge dobre spise v ugled lista. Številno priznanj in pohvalnih pisem. Nič napak v korekturah. Sami tipkani dopisi brez napak. Vsem članom in naročnikom lastne domove, da ne bo sprememb v adresarju. Mnogo zdravih let za dosego vsega tega!—Ivan Zupan in družina.” Sobrat, kolega in prijatelj Zupan pozna težkoče in neprilike urednikov in upravnikov naših glasil, zato so njegove želje prav gotovo prišle iz srca. Da bi le kaj zalegle oziroma da bi se vsaj deloma vresničile! Nisem navdušen niti za poslovilne večere niti za surprise parties, ljubim pa cvetlice in pravo prijateljstvo. Z Mr. Zupanom, urednikom Glasila KS KJ, sva bila vrsto let soseda in ves čas res dobra prijatelja. Zdaj naji loči daljava poldrugega mestnega bloka. Toda prijateljstvo ne pozna niti krajevnih niti časovnih razdalj. Prijateljstvo bo žarelo in cvetlice bodo cvetele dokler bo kaj življenja na tem planetu. Ko pa ne bo več prijateljstva in cvetja na svetu, tudi ne bo vredno več živeti. And that’s that! Pa, da se vrnemo k preselitvi. V poslopju, kjer je Nova Doba zdaj nastanjena, imamo poleg tiskarne tudi hranilnico, enega zavarovalninskega agenta, dva zobozdravnika, enega zdravnika| in eno bolniško strežnico, da u-rednikov treh različnih listov niti ne omenjam. Do poštne postaje, do S. N. Doma in do restavracije je uredniku nekoliko bližje kot je bilo prej, do državne prodajalne rakije in likerjev pa malo dalje. To zadnje se bo pa že potrpelo. Hroščeva sezona je na vsaka štiri leta, sezona gotovih kobi-j lic na vsakih 17 let in sončne1 pege se pojavijo na vsakih 11 let. Znanstveniki pravijo, da sončne pege povzročijo veliko aktivnost na zemlji. Zadnja selitev Nove Dobe je bila pred enajstimi leti, torej se ravnamo po soncu in sončnih pegah. Sonce pa je voditelj in življenje nas vseh. A. J. T. RAZNO IZ AMERIKE IN INOZEMSTVA (Nadaljevanje s 1. strani) ZAKLJUČNI TERMIN Predsednik Roosevelt je v svojem govoru pretekli teden napravil konec govoricam, da misli kandidirati še za tretji predsedniški termin. Ižjavil je, da je njegova največja ambicija izročiti predsedniške posle 20. januarja 1941 svojeVnu nasledniku,, kdorkoli že bo, ob največjem blagostanju ameriškega nr-^a. Vse delo njegovega druge f. termina bo posvečeno materialnemu in moralnemu dvigu dežele na najvišjo stopnjo, ki je mogoča. Dosedaj še noben ameriški predsednik ni služil več ko dva zaporedna termina, dasi ustava kaj takega ne prepoveduje. Toda ker prvi predsednik George Washington ni maral služiti več kot dva termina, se te navade držijo tudi njegovi nasledniki. VARNEJŠE LETANJE Številne letalske nesreče zadnjega časa, ki so zahtevale par ducatov človeških žrtev, so zbudile v deželi precejšno razburjenje. Zvezni kongres vsled tega hiti z načrti za postave strožjega nadzorstva letalskih družb. Poroča se tudi, da so inženirji zvezne obrežne straže izgotovili za aeroplane nov aparat, ki bo omogočil pilotom, da se bodo lahko spoznali kje so, v vsakem j vremenu. VRNJENA PROSTOST Pred šestnajstimi, leti je Terrence Cannon, takrat 12-letni fant, ušel iz državne poboljše-valnice v Londonu, Ohio, kamor je bil poslan zaradi nekega i zločina. Pred par tedni so ga slučajno našli v Pittsburghu* kjer je bil pod drugim imenom zaposlen kot preddelavec v jeklarni. Odveden je bil nazaj v državo Ohio, da odsluži še dolgovano kazen.

Očetje z velikimi družinami bodo imeli prednost pri zaposlenju in deležni bodo višjih plač. Za ženitev sposobni samci bodo višje obdavčeni.

Nekateri si za-morejo privoščiti take izlete po nekaj tednov ali mesecev, drugi le po nekaj dni ali ur. Komaj nastopijo prvi pred-pomladni dnevi, se v povprečnem človeškem srcu že zbudi hrepenenje po izletu v naravo. Izlete v naravo včasih ljudje nadomestijo s tem, da opravljajo kakšna mala dela na vrtu, če ga imajo. Med to delo spada v tem času posebno sajenje in presajanje dreves, grmičev in večletnih cvetlic. Slovenci imajo radi lepe vrtove pri stanovanjih; to, se zdi, jim je v krvi. Z vrtnarstvom pa imajo seveda različne uspehe, ki se ravnajo po znanju, financah in drugih razmerah. V vsakem večjem kraju te dežele imamo drevesnice in vrtnarije, kjer je mogoče kupiti različne rastline, ki uspevajo v do-tičnem kraju. Če pa finance ne dopuščajo nakupa rastlin od vrtnarjev, si včasih lahko pomagamo z divjimi rastlinami. Drevesa za senco lahko morda dobimo v okoliških gozdovih. Istotako je mogoče v gozdovih in na poljih dobiti razne večletne cvetlice, ki so na svoj način prav tako lepe kot one, ki jih prodajajo vrtnarji, poleg tega pa manj razvajene. Pomniti moramo, da so vse vrtne rastline potomke divjih rastlin, samo deloma izboljšane ali pa prene-šene iz drugih krajev. Mnoge rastline, ki jih pri nas gojimo na vrtovih, rastejo v drugih krajih divje. Nam se zde lepše od domačih divjih rastlin le zato, ker so bolj nenavadne. Kljub temu je gotovo in dokazano, da se zamorejo urediti prav lepi domači vrtovi samo z divjimi cvetlicami, ki .rastejo v dotičnem kraju. Treba jim je le dati nekaj pogojev, ki jih imajo v divjini in jih prostoru primemo posaditi.'

Arrowheads and Rangers started the game slowly, playing ! cautious defensive ball, with the Rangers taking the upper hand I in the first period, leading 7 to! 1. Play opens up a bit in the I second period as Petrie, Arrowhead forward, leads a d r i v e j which enables his team to score ! 6 points, at the same time, holding the Rangers to 3, but they were still behind at halftime 101 to 7. Rangers solved the Arrow-head defense in the third period, and counted with regularity to lead 21 to 9 going into the final i session. Both teams resorted to defensive work in the final peri-I od, as the Rangers came out with 1 a 23 to 12 win. Marolt, six foot four inch Ranger center set the-scoring pace with 8 points. Golobich, forward and Zgonc, guard were runners-up with four points apiece. For the Arrowheads, ; young Petrie, with 7 points was | high scorer. Gophers—Chisholm In the most exciting game of jthe tournament, from the fans’ I standpoint, Chisholm defeated the Cophers by a 24 to 21 score in a fast game. The crowd wras in j a frenzy as they watched the j Gophers rally after a dismal . i third period to come within three ! points of the winVrs. (May was even as the Gophers ■ took a 4 to 3 lead at the end of 1 the first period. Chisholm came > up to lead 11 to 10 at halftime. Led by I.

Rangers—Chisholm The best offensive of the tournament was featured in the Rangers driving 38 to 14 win over the Chisholm to cop first prize money. You have read just how the Rangers did it, so Little Stan will continue with the balance of the tourney news. Midway between the third and fourth periods, Little Stan announced that Anton Zbasnik, supreme secretary of the SSCU, would award the prizes, and deliver a special message of importance to the large group present, especially to ’the juveniles.

You will notice that the prizes offered are bigger than last year and they offer a real incentive to participate in the tourney. Let me inform you that this year we were fortunate in securing a very beautiful selection of medals and charms, and I feel sure that anyone winning one will be proud to wear it. Now is the time to start shaping together your teams. If any members desire to roll off their singles and doubles on Saturday, April 10, let me know and arrangements will be made to accommodate you. I hope to have quite a few singles and doubles rolled off on Saturday, as we did last year so that Sunday will not be too overcrowded. From the present outlook it is apparent that the record-breaking turnout of last year will be surpassed. Keep your eye on Nova Doba for more news which will be forthcoming in all future editions as more developments arise. Let’s see which lodge will be the most distant from Pittsburgh to be represented. This news will be published as the entry blanks roll in. We’re hoping to have the girls from Gowanda with us again, and how about bringing the boys along?

This will be in the nature of a private party | where prizes also shall be awarded the winners. Now let’s see all the members present and participate in the fun. After lent a special announcement will be made. This is intended to be a surprise. Until then let’s be sure to attend the March 19th meeting and party. Margaret Grahek, Recording Sec’; Gophers Win City Championship Ely, Minn. — With only five seconds to play, Frank Preshi-ren, forward, lending a story book finishing touch, caged a brilliant one-hand pivot shot, which enabled the Gophers of Lodge No. 2 to defeat and upset a strong Italion team 12 to 10 in the final game of the City championship tournament staged at Ely March 1 and 2. The tournament began the day after the completion of the state SSCU tournament. Three SSCU teams played off for city titular honors. They included the Rangers, SSCU champs; Gophers, and Hawkeyes. Even after the gruelling two-day SSCU tournament, the Gophers continued their winning ways to cop the city title. The game started off slowly as both teams played cautious defensive ball. The Gophers took a 5 to 4 lead at the end of the first period. Glavan brothers started the Gopher scoring. Italions came back in the second period to lead 7 to 6 at halftime. Each team was able to score a mere free throw in the third period, as both teams tightened up their defensive lines. Then the Frank Merriwell finish—45 seconds of play remaining. The Italions took time out to plan a scoring play which would enable them to break the 10-all deadlock and make them city champs. A tip-off play failed to materialize. Preshiren recovered the ball for the Gophers, dribbled down the side court, and with five seconds left to play, uncorked a twisting one-hand pivot shot which gave the Gophers the winning points. Little Stan was covering a meeting of the city fathers that night, and was unable to attend the final game. Immediately after the game however, Doc Zgonc gave Stan the welcome news. Kuzma, captain turned up a few minutes later, and reminded Little Stan of a promise! Little Stan had almost forgotten! Several months ago, he had promised the Gophers a steak dinner if they would win the city championship. He had felt fairly safe then! But, he had almost forgotten the promise. Now it was quite a turn around, and Little Stan was caught with his trousers half way down! The boys congregated in Little Stan’s shop, awaiting his arrival from the city council meeting Congratulations were in order, the steaks were ordered, and the boys enjoyed a nice feed. Little Stan would not be a piker! He came through! All it cost him was $4.50, and it was worth every penny of it! So there! A new expression, popular among the Gopher players “I love me!” Heh, Heh! Back to the basketball court. In the preliminaries of the city championship, Italions defeated the Rangers 32 to 20; and the Gophers defeated the Hawkeyes 27 to 21. Winners met in the finals and you know the results. Members of the Gophers Champs are Frank “Merriwell,” Preshiren, .and Frank Glavan, forwards; John Glavan, center; John Perko, Tony Kuzma (captain) and John Pechek, guards. Their pictures will appear in a coming issue of Nova Doba, along with a picture of Ranger SSCU state champs. Look for it! Well, so much for this time, but Little Stan will be with you next week with a startling an nouncement for everyone! Stan Pechavar No. 2 SSCU. Stan is ducking from any possible irate fans. Heh, Heh! Complete results of the tour ney are as follows: First Round Rangers 23, Arrowheads 12; Chisholm 24, Gophers, 21; Hawkeyes 33, Gilbert 16. Semi-Final Chisholm—Bye; Rangers 28, Hawkeyes 19.

Attend March 16 Meeting Rangers Win State SSCU Championship (Continued from page 5) I hope to see many of you youngsters in lodge teams playing under the banner of the SSCU!” A great cheer, as the audience left the huge gymnasium, and the curtain was pulled over the most successful cage event in years. Immediately plans for the next tournament were verbally started. Celebration After the game, the scene shifted to the National Home, where players participated in a victory get-together in gala style. Frankie Smoltz played accordion numbers on Peppy Lou Kotzians accordion. Midnight, Adjournment, everybody homeward bound. A grand conclusion to the annual event. SSCU AU-State Team Just for the fun of it, Little Stan and John Somrock, Jr., both newsmen, who cover the waterfront, collaborated to pick out an SSCU all-state team.

Folin, Member No. U, SSCU The whole future life of a child may depend on the care it receives during the first few weeks after it is born. After the doctor is gone and the newborn baby is tucked away warm in its basket, one of the first precautions is to be sure there is no bleeding from the cord. If there is bleeding, wash your hands and retie with a sterile strong string and if there are signs of inflammation around the navel, as shown by edness of the surrounding ikin, call the attending physi jian’s attention to it at once. Rupture at the navel is very common in infants. If, after the cord comes off, there is bulging at the navel when the baby cries apply strips of adhesive tape to keep the sides of the opening together; of course, this should be shown the mother, either by the physician or nurse so that she will learn how to do it herself. The strip should be removed about once a week for several months and during this time only sponge baths can be given for the tape will not stick if wet. Removal of the tape may easily be done and with the least amount of skin irritation by applying benzene. But remember that benzene is highly inflammable. The skin must be thoroughly dried before the tape is put on. The first bath is an event of importance to the baby. His skin is coated with cheesy substance which nature put there for protection. Since this material is difficult to remove without producing a skin injury the baby should first be anointed with either linseed oil or olive oil which has first been boiled and cooled. This softens the cheesy coating so that it may be removed with warm water and soap of the best quality. The first bath should not be given until 6 to 12 hours after birth. Don’t rub the skin with a coarse rag or you may start a severe skin irritation. The intense redness of the skin which one frequently sees is due to the grandmother’s scrubbing process as she attempts to get the baby really clean. Should this intense redness appear, discontinue the bath for several days and dust the baby with a reliable baby powder or with cornstarch, and change and1 cleanse the baby only after Drop Duckpin Series Gowanda, N. Y. — The next regular monthly meeting of Pathfinders will be held Tuesday, March 16, at 7:30 p. m. As there is much work to be done, we would like to have a record attendance. Keep this date open and be sure to attend. Both the January and February attendances were poor; so let’s make up for it by attending this all-important meeting. A new athletic supervisor must be elected to take the place of Henry Zuzek, resigned. Baseball will be brought up and discussed; also plans will be made to, send a group of bowlers to the SSCU bowling tournament in Cleveland on April 25. All those members interested in baseball, especially, are urged to be on hand so that the baseball team may get an early start. Different committees for the Pathfinders’ Sixth Anniversary Dance, which will be held on May 1, will be selected. The officers of the lodge want to make this dance bigger and better than ever; and to do it they must have the help of every member. If all the members pitch in, they are sure to attain their goal. And don’t forget, boys and girls, to bring in your new members as the contest is now under way. Let’s start this campaign with a bang and bring in many new members. Although sometime ago our editor gave us some dope on “Ernie,” we still are wondering why he doesn’t write. Is love really as bad as all that, “Ernie” ? Pathfinders wish to extend their deepest sympathy to Mr. and Mrs. Walter Strout in the death of Mr. Strout’s father, who passed away at Salamanca, N. Y. on Wednesday, March 3. Doris E. Sternisha Center, Pa. — The match game of March 5 ended with the SNPJ Comets winners over the SSCU Ramblers by about 50 pins. Final scores were 1566 to 1516. A return match game between Comets and Center Ramblers will be held on March 15 at Moose Hall, Universal, Pa. Just a reminder of our regular monthly meeting which will be held March 14. We want a perfect attendance. Don’t forget, members, the meeting is very important; come upstairs to take part in the discussions and leave the barroom rest until after the meeting. The Center Ramblers have a dance scheduled for April 10 in the Slovene Hall. Secure your tickets now. At this time we want to congratulate Mr. and Mrs. Ignatz Oblock who joined the circle of matrimony recently. The bride formerly was Miss Margaret Arendas, of Wall, Pa. Another member, Shine?

The eyes of the newborn infant require prompt attention by the physician or nurse. Much of infant blindness is due to infection received during birth. Many states require by law that directly after birth a 1% solution of silver nitrate be dropped into every baby’s eyes—a wise precaution. With Betsy Ross Cleveland, O. — Members of Betsy Ross lodge, No. 186, SSCU are requested to attend the regular monthly meeting Thursday, March 11, at the Slovene Workingmen’s Home. Something new —entirely different is in store for the members. So be sure to attend. “Patsy” Krall Editor’s note: Part of the foregoing article will appear in next week’s issue as lack of space prevents publication in its entirety. Blackout The reporter had been away from home for something like a week. Jle returned home one evening rather unexpectedly. He kissed his wife, and then pre pared to take a bath after his long journey. While waiting for the tub to fill, he came across his wife’s diary, which she had unknowingly left in the room. “Had a swell time while my husband was away,” he read. “Was out every night until five A. M., expect Saturday. Saturday I stayed home.” The husband stormed through the bedroom into the living room, where his wife was sitting. He pointed an accusing finger, first at the diary and then at his wife. “Look here,” he cried suspiciously. “What were you doing home on Saturday night?” Los Angeles Examiner C. Sunshine Hit New Three-Game High W. Guzik Collects 256 Game Cleveland, O. — Next Sunday, March 14th the Cleveland SSCU Bowling League will start its regular schedule at 1:00 p, m. sharp on the home alleys, and then go to the Clair-Doan alleys for match games with the Clairwoods of SDZ. Another important announcement for the SSCU keglers. On Sunday, March 21 the circuit will bowl a double header, the first series to start at 1:00 p, m. This arrangement will enable the bowlers to skip Easter Sunday kegling.

Posebno hrano je užival 36 dni in znaša- z. jo stroški 252 Din. Zaradi nesre-1 K če je moral njegov lastnik več- S" krat telefonirati in znašajo za- v radi tega stroški 100 Din. Ranjenega psa pa so morali tudi 21 dni obsevati in znaša to 630 Din. Za pranje obvez in plahti 2 so izdali 60 Din. Huda nesreča ■ je skrbnega gospodarja silno prestrašila, vzela mu je voljo za delo in vse to stane 500 Din. Ker so tudi ostali člani družine luksuznega • psička ravno tako ljtfbili in bili ravno tako prestrašeni zaradi njegove nesreči če, predstavljajo strah, skrb in i druge tegobe družine strošek 2000 Din. Pes pa je zaradi ra- - ne izgubil na svoji vrednosti in - je tO z brazgotino vred, ki ga bo vedno kazila, cenjeno na 1400 Din. Vrednost tega nesrečnega luksuznega psička je ogromna v primerjavi z vrednostjo revnih ljudi. Zagrebški reveži dobivajo v kuhinjah raznih dobrodel- I nih društev kosilo za 4 Din, brezdomci pa lahko prenočujejo v mestnem azilu za 4 Din. Če ra-(čunamo, da potroši revež zjutraj 2 Din za mleko in kruh, za večerjo pa 3 Din, vidimo, da mora izhajati na dan s 13 in ali ves mesec s 390 Din. So pa velike množice revežev, ki tega ne premorejo. Kako visoko stoji nad njimi luksuzni s psiček, ki 21 dni neguje svojo ■ rano za 630 Din. Samo za 250 i Din je ta psiček v 36 dneh po-, jedel več mesa in druge hrane, , kakor če bi bil zdrav. Za obveze i so porabili 12 plaht, 6 brisač in 13 krp. Reveži, ki prenočujejo v gozdnih nasadih na klopeh in stanujejo po kleteh, razpadajočih barakah in celo v kanalskih ceveh, vsega tega nimajo. Otroke teh revežev grizejo podgane in tudi psi so že marsikaterega reveža napadli in ogrizli. Nikdar se pa še ni zgodilo, da bi eden izmed njih zahteval za strah pred pasjim napadom zase 500 Din, za svojo družino pa 2000 Din. Še razne druge gorostasne primerjave bi se dale navesti, kratko in milo rečeno pa je pasja pravda v Zagrebu napravila na javnost zelo mučen vtis.

Popraskal se je za ušesom in se je predstavil, da je zasebni detektiv Mavricij Pikec, in se je opravičil, da so ga pač v zmoto i spravili prečudni glasovi, ki sem i z njimi spremljal svoje obuva-nje. Bil je jako vesel, da mu nisem zameril, pa sva kmalu postala prav dobra prijatelja. — Pri tej priliki lahko povem, kaj se je slavnemu Pikcu še primerilo oni dan. Zaupal mi je, da je prišel v Bent Jenž 'zaradi sejmskih ta-jtov. Ti sejmski tatovi'da so velika nadloga, za kmetsko prebivalstvo; pomešajo se v znečo, če ni gneče, jo nared e, v gneči pa s čudovito drznostjo izmikajo sejmarjem listnice in ravnajo tako 'spretno, da okradeni niti ne ve, ! kdaj je bil okraden. Za tatovi !pa nikakega sledu! Pa mi je razodel in pokazal gospod Pikec, kako zvito da ima ; reč sedaj napeljano. Iz zunanjega žepa na desni strani suknji-1 ča mu je kukala debela rdeča listnica. Toda ni bila debela od denarja, nego je bila nabasana z navadnim papirjem in ji jc i bil namen samo ta, da bo vaba za tatu. Tat jo bo videl, holaj! — lepo prijazno jo bo hotel iz-i mekniti, pa se bo lepo prijazne ujel. Kajti ne le da je listnica piškava in puhla, nego je tud ’ trdno prišita k suknjiču in V ! i hlačam. Kdor se bo le rahlo do J teknil listnice, ni vrag, da g£ - ne bi on, Pikec, koj čutil, pa bo - hop! z eno roko zgrabil tatu, : i drugo roko bo vzel piščalko - rrrriiii! in bosta prihitela orož z nika iri uklenila ujeto srako. Ta naklep se mi je zdel silno ; imeniten, vreden bistre buče, ki ; ga je zasnovala, in sem dejal, da bom koj prišel za njim na sejem, le okrepčati se moram še prej, napor z obuvanjem da me jc silno upehal. Sedel sem še v gostilniški sobi, kava z mlekom je bila že o-ž;v'la moje notranje počutje, pa jo ir. kuhinje tako zapeljivo dišal golaž, da sem si vrhu kave naročil še golaž — dober tek imrm, hvala Bogu! Tedaj se je pojavil, prijatelj Pikec, roko je tiščal ob desni bok, oziral se je po sobi, pa ko r;ie je uzrl, je s hitrim korakom pristopil k meni in je sedel j na mojo levo stran. Obračal je oči v strop, stokal je “oh!” in “jej!” in so se mu ponujale kletvice. Vprašal sem ga, kaj stoka in kolne, saj vendar nima trebuha in je obut. Pa mi je pokazal da mu je odrezan ves desni krajec suknje z žepom vred in še kos hlač! Zarohnel je in je>dejal, da imajo ti trikrat peklu zapisani tatje sedaj nožičke, i ostre kakor britev, in z njimi, i smuk! kar odrežejo svoj plen, ti falotje, in da je vesel, da ni imel 37 .................... 34531 37 .................... 34532 37 .................... 33731 37 .................... 33720 37 .................... 35603 37 .................... 34201 37 .................... 34191 37 .................... 33766 37 .................... 33726 37 .................... 34204 37 .................... 33277 45 .................... 33786 45 .................... 33383 53 .................... 37524 54 .................... 35503 55 .................... 33811 72 .................... 36674 88 .................... 33867 88 .................... 37535 103 .................... 34037 103 .................... 35415 103 .................... 34846 104 .................... 37622 158 .................... 35080 Skupaj--Total ......................
