the days September 18th and 10th,

therefore that the Mexicans love
these two holidays, which represent
so much to them. On the night Of

can be seen thousands Of Indians
vending their way TO the city,
bringing with them large supplies

evidence Of the great fertility and
richness of the soil. Il is one Of
