Life of Renitn Iuarez.

Very seldom are such days pre-
scented in the histories of the peo-
pie, as that inscribed in the Next
can calendar. the 21st day of March,
1906, marks the birthday of Benito
Juarez, probably the greatest man
ever produced by the Aztec race,
born in Guelatao, a small village
in the state of Oaxaca.
During his infancy both of hi.
parents died. leaving him destitute
and without an education. He wa
then compelled by necessity TO worl
for a living. This he did by work
ing as a shepherd on the plains o
Oaxaca. But this boy was not des
tined to be a shepherd all his life
When he was a youth he was takel
by a priest to be educated to the
Brownsville herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1910-current, 1912-03-30

factory manner by Daniel Saenz,
completed the program. The last
number was especially we'll prepared.
Raymond Dickens was asked to re
