Here in Chicago we have a lodge organized on November 7th, 1907 called Tatians Slovak Jednota. This Society was organized for the prime purpose of having the Slovaks remain with their own organizations.

This is the only society that for dues of One Dollar a month, gives sick benefits for thirteen weeks at $5.00 a week and thirteen weeks at $2.50 per week; and for death benefits, for the first year it gives $100.00, second year $200.00, third year $400.00 and fifth year $500.00; after five years you receive $1,000.00

At the last meeting it was agreed upon by the high officers that beginning May 29th, 1911, they will give $200.00 the first year and $250.00 the second year, the rest will remain the same until 1912 when the convention will be held.
