Page 4 THE EIGHTH HUNGARIAN TRIBE October, 1983 Believe it or Not! Recently we received a new subscription not far from Ligonier, in their letter they said that they saw a copy of this magazine at the Hungarian Church of Reformation in Miami, Florida. These people had to travel thousand of miles to learn about something, which they should have been able to do in their local Hungarian Church or at the local Hungarian Club. The moral of the story is: if a,church or a club truly wants to promote the work of this magazine and the H.E.T.F. is able to do so — given an opportunity by their leadership. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR:— "Dear Mr. Chomos: I can’t find enough kind words to thank you for all you’ve done in promoting the Miss Magyar of Western Pennsylvania, 1983 Pageant. Your love of our Hungarian culture and your devotion in promoting it is truly apparent. The presentation in the Eighth Hungarian Tribe magazine was beautiful and really appreciate all you and your nephew did in making the pageant a success. I would be pleased if you would consider coming baek to judge next years pageant at the end of July 1984. Thank you very much, Debra Heyz, chairman McKeesport, Pennsylvania Dear Mr. Chomos: I always enjoy reading your nice publication The Hungarian Eighth Tribe. I must congratulate you and your staff for compiling a very interesting and highly educational publication. You might want to continue to mention to your readers the facilities offered by our offices in making Hungarian Forint Gift Checks available to those who want to send money to their friends and relatives in Hungary. As you know, these Gift Checks are sold at the lowest official rate Of exchange without extra charge, and they are encashable at all the offices of the Hungarian National Savings Bank, of which there are many hundreds all over Hungary. These Gift Checks are quite popular, and they can also be used by people who visit Hungary. Travelers can take them along, and by doing so they are protected against loss and they don’t have to worry about exchanging foreign currencies or taking Forints with them into Hungary. Also, I am taking the liberty of enclosing a check for $25.00 made out to the Hungarian Eighth Tribe Foundation, with my best wishes to continue the good work. Sincerely yours, Nicholas L.
