him that she desired to have church built at

tuberculosis attacks it very rarely and
SO its milk is much better than cows

History says that about 1925 a band of Aztecs
was travelling through the Valley of Mexico.
For nearly six hundred years these people had
been wanderers on the face of the earth, and
during all those centuries they had been
searching for the promised land-a place to
build new home Their priests had taught
them that when they saw a royal eagle with a
snake in its taons aight upon a prickly pear
cactus. that would be a sign that there was the
place for them to build city. And as they
were wandering through this valley they be-
held royal eagle, perched upon a cactus,
holding serpent. This is the origin of the
Mexican national emblem OF today. Accord.
ingly they stopped. for they firmly believed
that their long journey was ended On an
island in Lake Texcoco they built city which
they called Tenochtitlan, and this is where the
City of Mexico now stands.
Considering the centuries that they had been
homeless, the reign of the Aztecs over this fair
land was short for In 1919 Cortez landed in
Mexico. Then began one of the most remark
able campaigns in all history. The great con-
querer commenced his famous march to the
Aztec capital, fighting battle after battle, and
defeating hordes of savages. On November
8, 1919, Cortez entered Tenochtitlan with his
little army and was welcomed by Montezuma
IT, The Spaniards collected great amount of
gold and other valuables which they were COM
PEELED to leave, for on July 1, 1920 they were
driven from the city. However, In August,
1921, they returned besieged the place, and on
the 18th they were again victorious; and the
reign Of the AZtecs came to an end forever.
But the great treasures that had been left be-
hind by the conquerors had disappeared.
Circumference, the last of the Montezumas, was
tortured with fire In an effort to make him
disclose the hiding place of the gold; but in
this Cortez failed, for the lips of the Aztec re-
NAMED sealed, and the location Of the treas
ure is mystery unto this day.

has been the site of the residences of the rul-

tees.
The Mexico City of former times was sur
rounded by Lake TeZcoco, the waters of which
we're alkaline and unfit for use. Therefore the
inhabitants were compelled to obtain their
water from springs, and it was carried to the
city by means of aqueducts. One of these ran
along the road to Chapultepec and terminated
at the fountain of Ell Salto del Agu, near Be-
lem prison.
Portions of this famous old waterway are
still standing and may be seen from the street
cars. 1t was constructed of bricks, laid in ce
ment and plastered with the same material. 1t
was very substantial and would have stood
