MEXICANS OF FL PASO
 TO OBSERVE EASTER

FL PASO, Tex, April IA (by Asso- ciated Press(-Mexican residents of El Paso give Holy Week and Easter re- ligious observances a touch of Latin solemnity. Thousands of Mexican refugees and residents of El Paso at tend the American churches here on Easter Sunday and participate in the daily services incident to Holy Week. They are made welcome by the Am erican attendants and frequently take leading part in the observances. This is true both on the north side where the American churchgoers are in the majority and on the south side where the population is almost entire ly Mexican.
 Starting with Ash Wednesday, the Mexicans observe strictly all of the feast days of the Roman Catholic church through Holy Week and in- cluding Easter. The mantila, and its cheaper counterpart the roboso, is worn by the Mexican women while at- tending church and these hooded women give the church services an additional touch of picturesque solem- nifty. Many of the churches on the American side of the Rio Grande te which Mexicans attend have Spanish priests in Ell Paso churches speak Spanish and conduct at least part of the church service in this language for the benefit of those who do not understand English.

PEACE TO RESTORE

while passenger carsfhave the call

of even the most sanguine manufac-
turers Of six months ago." says G. c.
Frey, of the Kissel Motor Car Com
pany., with the signing OF the peace
treaty a general trade revival will be
on in full swing and you will see
possibly not to such an extent as pas
senger cars now, but they will reach a
sales record that will not only cause
manufacturersto keep their factories
going night and day, but motor truck
purchasers may have to place their
orders way in advance for delivery
within a reasonable time.
"In fact this increase in motor
truck demands has made itself felt
during the last two months, not only
in the suburban and agricultural
sections, but in the city here, indi-
eating that industry is going ahead

meet all demands.
at must not be forgotten that we
have, particularly in the last two
years, had to put every available
truck in the United States into use
to meet the increased demands which
the times demanded. At that time a
twenty-four-hour-d schedule was
common. The shortage Of labor was
felt in the garages and service sta
tions, affecting the care of trucks
