Lietuva -- June 08, 1906The Twenty Second Convention of the Lithuanian Alliance of America
The Lithuanian Alliance of America decided to establish a Lithuanian colony for old people. To find a suitable place, the following committee was elected; F. Golubickas, P. V. Birstonas, P. Lazauskas, J. Tareila, and A. Melninkaitis. They should find a suitable place, and describe it. The members of the Lithuanian Alliance of America will then vote for approval or rejection.
A protest resolution was brought against the Chicago Lithuanian clergy for their warning and threatening the excommunication of their parishioners for taking part in the parade and for attending the convention's sessions.
The convention set aside fifty dollars for the best written Lithuanian poem and composition. It donated fifty dollars for a monument to the deceased J. Paukstis, who was the first initiator to organize the Lithuanian Alliance of America. It 2pays five dollars per month to the writer, Vistalis.
The national cents (the national cents are paid, one cent a year by every member to the national affairs fund) were distributed as follows: $210 for the writer, Vistalis; $100 to the students fund; $100 to the Lithuanian old people's home and colony, which are to be bought; and the balance of $344.42 to the revolutionary movement in Lithuania. The Alliance will lend five thousand dollars without interest to the Lithuanian colony, if such a place is bought.
The twenty second convention of the Lithuanian Alliance of America will be held in Cleveland, Chio.
The twenty first Lithuanian convention was closed at 7:30 P.M., May 31, 1906., Chicago, Illinois. J. Jlgaudas, reporter.

Dziennik Zwiazkowy -- December 02, 1911Welfare Work
The showing of moving pictures at the parish hall of St. Adalbert's, 16th and South Paulina Streets, has met with great success. The committee has obtained excellent pictures, and the hall is packed at almost every performance. The pictures are shown every Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday afternoon and evenings, and the proceeds go to help the poor of this parish. This is a very good cause and the Poles of St. Adalbert's parish and vicinity should support these performances. A special committee, which investigates every needy family, is in charge of the proceeds.

Denni Hlasatel -- November 20, 1912The Slet in Thalia Theatre
There are certain things which make such a deep impression that they can never be forgotten.....
Many of us have read and heard about the Slet (Sokol Mass Convention) in Prague and have pictured the magnificent scenes which our more fortunate people could see in reality. But probably none of us would really believe what we heard until we saw the motion pictures of the Slet shown in the Thalia Theater.....
