FLOCK To PADRE
Citrate Distributes Aims
Every Saturday After
noon; Piteous Scenes.
BY EDMOND Z. BEHR.

This is story about poor people
. not ordinarily poor people, but so poor
that one real meal day is a bright
spot in their lives. Also. it is about
a man who is spending his days help
ing those adults and children Of
poverty.
II one viii visit Juarez any Satur-
day afternoon between and o'clock,
one can see the people and the man.
The man is Father Jose Marquee curate
of the Guadalupe mission in Juarez
The people are the destitute men, wo-
men and children Of the neishboring
Mexican town. as well as hundreds who
come up from the interior.
The Outstretehed Hands.
Is there any thrill in the sight Of a
ragged. little Mexican girl holding out
her claw-hke hand 10 padre Marquee
for loaf Of bread2 Is there anything
interesting in a blind, White-haired
man grasping to his bosom a second
hand "camisa" that the priest has just
handed him. Is there anything
.'newsy" in a wrinkled crone mutter-
ing blessings TO "Dios." as she is given
a small sack of beans?
That's what occurs every weekend
at the cathedral in JuareZ, when
Father Marquee distributes aims TO the
poor of his congregation The poor
We have always with you" might have
been written for this very scene that
takes place every Saturday in the Mex
lean town across the Rio Grande.
To this oldest OF worshiping places
along the border come the destitute
Of Juarez every Saturday and Father
Marquee gives them food and clothing
and the blessing OF God What they
give the priest in return is mex
pressible-

the old days before the wars, the con-

The churchgOers are mostly moor. so
they look 10 the pastor for aid AND
they get all he can possibly give them

About all the little country Of

win, nothing to fight for must be
forced into war. No one can pity
a nation that wants to fight even
if she gets good threshing but to
compel small nations to go to war
against their will is disgrace to
any civilization. Practically all the
great powers of Europe are guilty
and the crime should rest heavily up
ON their heads,
