PAGE 6 MAY 29, 1937 (Cont’d. from preceding page) Hungary awaits for better days. National and religious tolerance have always been characteristic for Hungary and her foreign policy leads to the spreading and strengthening of peace. All the efforts of her government are di­rected towards peace and even the attainment of her just na­tional aspirations are to be achieved by peaceful means. In so far as peace in the land is concerned, there is nothing more to be wished for, so the Preparatory Committee is direct­ing its efforts to make the Con­gress a success in all other ways tas well. Here first of all come the problems of accommodation, lodging, catering, communica­tions etc. One realizes with what thoroughness and conscientious­ness the Prepartory Committee is working when one thinks that, though the Congress will only take place in over a year’s time, the Committee is already working on the solution of the accomoda­tion problem. The Statistical Department of the Municipality of Budapest has put its resources at the disposal of the Committee and has started on the 15th of April to make a census of all rooms available in Budapest. New hotels are also being built and Budapest will be able to offer all guests the maximum of comfort. The Committee tackled this prob­lem thus early, so as to be able to devote all its energies later to the solution of minor problems. Budapest can be reached by air, rail, river and road. Ship­ping lines run direct steamers to Budapest from as far as Regens­burg. The journey by boat from Vienna takes half a day, and is especially liked by tourists for the wonderful view of illuminated Budapest obtained on arrival. By rail Budapest can be reached from any European metropolis within a very short time, as it lies in the centre of Eastern and Central European traffic. First class highways offer a comfort­able route for motorcar and mo­­torcoach, the main London-Con­­stantinople transcontinental high­way running through Budapest; but the main roads to Rome, Prague, Warsaw etc, are also ex­cellent. Budapest is one of the main landing places of the inter­national airways. Thus Buda­pest is already now preparing to receive its guests coming here for the Eucharistic Congress. Even such seemingly unimpor­tant questions as those of new garages, filling stations, public comfort stations etc., are being studied by the Committee, for though Budapest is fully equipped with all these, new arrangements% •will have to be made for the great throngs expected! WHENEVER YOU MAY BE IN NEED (After your certificate is three years old) WE OFFER YOU OUR NON. FORFEITURE OPTIONS CASH SURRENDER OR LOAN VALUES PAID-UP OR EXTENDED TERM INSURANCE TJerhorniyokJgpja A SOLEMN MESSAGE Though the great flow of blood of the World War has ended, yet it did not end that valley of mourning wherin millions of people are en­during the duties of life; so the battlefield was only still­ed of the roaring of the can­non, and the cracking of the guns and the moans of the dying. The battle remained; the battle goes on. Certain groups which have the ad­vantage of centuries past of power and the masses of people whose power are as yet unmeasured, fight a bloodthirsty battle. The Verhovay Fraternal Insurance Association is carrying on its own battle for the past half century on a collective basis with fruit­ful results, so from this end­less struggle will grow up a new social life, — you take no risks, nor can you lose. The foundation of the Ver­hovay Fraternal Insurance Association is safe and solid and no one will chance the confidence who will shelter themselves under the Ver­hovay banner. The people dwelling in mining towns also 'fight for an existence and they are al­most overcome with worry about their future, possible illness or misfortunes that are likely to occur in life. My message to you is, do away with worry, find re­fuge in the arms of the Ver­hovay Fraternal' Insurance Association where the fra­ternity of brotherhood will share their worries in cases of sickness, maiming or death. Those whom we can greet as members can be as­sured that a helping hand will always be ready at the bed of the sick and the brotherly love of the Ver­hovay will dry the rolling tears of the orphaned and the widowed. With joy we await all those who desire to join us, — and in the name of the Verhovay Fraternal Insur­ance Association, I welcome you. JOSEPH DARAGO Supreme President “Let’s Go Snoopin on Verhovay Ave.” No, my dears, I’m not trying to sing, “Let’s go s'llimmin’ on Park Avenue.” I’m just initiating a new column. j I’ve been spying on cer­tain people and I’ve dis­covered many things. Here are some of them. We had a party about three weeks ago and you ought to see the musical kisses the local lads pass out. They can play any tune on your lips from a rhumba to a tender love song. One of our Verhovay members (and incidentally a cousin of mine) Mr. Jo­seph Sepack, is rallying from an operation. We are sin­cerely hoping for your speedy recovery, Joe. Another Verhovay mem­ber has been in the hospital. He answers to the name of. Mr. Joe Skabo. They took him to the hospital for a little “butchering,” but he came through, like a regular trouper. You can’t keep a good man down. By the way, Joe, how’s the “Bar­barian?” (Don’t worry — I won’t tell on you). Did your mother ask you any questions, Mr. Gombos, when she found that lip­stick-stained hanky in your coat pocket? (Don’t worry readers. I’m not guilty. The girls at the party did the dirty work). One of our newest mem­bers, Mr. Michael Hornick, was a fullback in football during his highschool days. Mike sure was a great star. He won several varsity let­ters and had offers from various colleges, vieing for his services. Mike gradu­ated from New Brighton High School in 1935. (So did your new scooper). You know, we New Brighton Hi graduates are all pretty -smart! What say, keeds, aren’t we? Gosh. I bet I’ll get a good “beating-up” at the next meeting for some of the things I’ve written: but, if 1 do, it will be worth it. If I’m able to write (after the next meeting), I may at­tempt another column. So until then, so long, folks! 1 shall be glad to receive letters, suggestions, etc., from you all. From ‘‘Ye ole Scooper, Vestrocy.” Address all com­munications to Miss Helen Vestrocy, 1509 Fifth Street, New Brighton, Pa. PAYMENT OF INTEREST Those of our members, having a loan on their poli­cies, are requested to pay their interest on same. If someone is financially un­able to comply with this re­quest by paying the interest in one lump sum, they can avail themselves of the con­cession offered by our As­sociation, that is, paying the interest in installments. For instance, if someone has a loan of $200.00 on their po­licy, the interest and hand­ling charge on this is $8.10. If they cannot pay this a­­mount in full, at one time, they should pay about sixty­­five or seventy cents per month and at the end of the year, in this manner, their interest is paid in full. Past, Present and F uturistic Alexander E. Thomas, our District Organizer, blew himself to a new wagon, a 1937 Buick Coupe. He said, that if any ladies visit Cleve­land, they will receive his undivided attention. I hope, that if that will be the case, he will remember me too and not keep all the ladies for himself. Helen Veres at a nite club, with a boy friend. I was there also, — alone! Betty Pal just love's flow­ers. She wears a carnation on one shoulder and a for­­get-me-not on the other. Mr. Besenyei, local attorney, member of the West Side Branch, was seen at a local banquet. I went to a Gypsy Wedding dance at the Ver­hovay Hall and was I disap­pointed. There was no mar­riage booth. Beautiful girls aplenty all around me with no good excuse at hand, for kissing them. Alexander Tokey of Br. 14, bakes potatoes and speck every S u n d a y morning. Haven’t seen the Duchess for a long time. I wonder where she is? Read the letter of Supreme President Joseph Darago. With an appeal of that na­ture, I am sure everyone will at least double their efforts. With such an array of celebrities present, we do not wonder that the anniver­sary dance of Branch 395 of McKeesport, Pa., was such an outstanding success. Do­n’t take this wrong. I wish they could have been it our anniversary dance last Jan­uary. Some people have all the luck. Sh! We had about five hundred people at our dance. Here’s to the early recov­ery of Casimer Boros of Branch 429. Congratula­tions to Eddie Gall. Zoltán Vincent should follow in his footsteps. What say, girls? Use that old sox appeal. Congratulations to John Bucky Horvath of Scranton, Pa. You know we Hor­vaths must stick together. What say Bucky? I fell asleep reading the minutes of the last meeting of the Board of Directors. Pawdon me. Thanks to the girls of the Home Office for their kind consideration, which I re­ceive for my column. I am glad to hear from my friends. Thanks Helen Gay­­dos. Remember? Every­thing must go in the paper. Mr. Torda of Branch 14 is to be married, he may be by the time this is printed, anyhow', I wish both of them happiness. Sometime ago, three of us went to see Gizella Merk, relative to some lodge af­fair. Her mother would not allow us in. I’ll bet wre must have looked like a bunch of tramps. She talked to us through the door. I take a trimming in chess almost every time I play. You should have seen Margaret Sanders in her new Spring coat. A sort of yellowish material, with a very bushy white fur collar. She w'as a knockout. Miss Betty Toth sure had a wonderful program out­lined for the Summer. We are going on a hike, some­time in May. Just heard that one of the girls was jilted. I w'onder what happened to the pros­pective bridegroom? ? Sh. . . Paul Bolesic just loves to w'alk out at Euclid Beach. He has worn a path from the roller rink to the dance hall. Yes! I was with him. Saw' Helen Bosway out there. Wonder what be­came of Julia Male. Ethel Kolosvary became a mem­ber of the Verhovay at the last meeting of the Branch. John Bosway, Sr. resign­ed as Manager of the Verho­vay Home. A young man. Louis Cser is taking Mr. Bosw'ay’s place. Mr. Kali of Branch 14 will go to Europe for a vacation in the near future. Mrs. Matusz’s daughter will begin taking dancing lessons. She needs them, and so do I. Well here is my swan song. Don’t forget to write, don’t pull your punches, the girls here in Cleveland don’t. Any new's items or infor­mation, please send to me, c/o Verhovay Home, 8637 Buckeye Rd., Cleveland, O. Joseph J.
