Campbell Meeting To
Be Held Third Sunday
In Deference To School
CAMPBELL. Ohio This
u to inform the entire mem
bership of CFU Lodge 185
that the regular monthly
meeting for February will be
held on the third Sunday,
February 15, instead of the
regular second Sunday.
The postponement was
compulsory due to the fact
that the CFU Training School
will be held in Youngstown's
Croatian Home on Saturday
and Sunday, February 7 and
8, and all lodge officers are
requested to attend.
It would be pleasing and
gratifying to see all our
younger members, male and
female, hi attendance at
tills school which wiH be
conducted by bro. Joseph
Bella, CFU Supreme Secre
tary, and bro. Michael Gm
sha, Junior Order Director.
These two Executive Board
members will explain the dif

the Croatian Fraternal Union
has to offer our members
also all other benefits that
cannot be bought anywhere,
but which we receive, free of
charge, simply because we are
members of the CFU.
From these schools we hope
to find a certain number of
men and women who would
be willing to act as our Field
men. They would act as rep
resentatives of the Croatian
Fraternal Union among the
non-members and explain to
them and acquaint them with
all the benefits that the CFU
is giving its members.
This plan of conducting
schools and training inter
ested people to become
Fleldmen was adopted at
tiie last convention in Phil
adelphia and is now being
carried oat as ordered by
that body.
All Lodge 185 members are
asked to take note of the post
ponement of the meeting and
to act accordingly.

pletely and so painstakingly
covered in several articles in
this paper during the month
of October.
Each year thousands of
Americans, of every national
origin, see. enjoy, and acclaim
these young artists.
It is sufficient to say that
