I'm OUR
v ALLIE

BROWNSVILLE will hold giant
celebration tomorrow.
SO will McAllen.
one celebration will attract from
the east end Of the Yalley.
The other from the west end.
Perhaps they will exchange
great many spectators.
The fact Of the matter is, there
are more people in the Valley than
one Fourth of July celebration can
handle.
And two are not too many. Each
will have plenty Of attractions. And
each should draw hea lily.
Brownsville has an additional
event. the dedication Of the new
helf million dollar international
bridge of the Gateway Bridge COM
pany.
In which celebration Matamotos
joins. since Matamoros is as much
interested as Brownsville in this
new structure.
ANYWAY. there will be plenty Of
action in the Valley on the Fourth
of July.
And no reason for anyone to stay
a home.
The coast, with its fishing and
bathing. will draw its pro rata Of
holiday crowds.
The bullfight at Reynosa will
prove another attraction.
There will be something doing
somewhere in the Valley almost
every minute OF the day.
It's to be a great day-s memor-
able day.
Get into the middle Of it and cele-
brate.

somewhere near the North Pole.
Raold Amundsen, the explorer, who
went to Mobiles rescue, was him
self lost in the ice fields.
The mercury up there is eonsid-
erably below the zero mark.
Down here il is hustling UP
around 90 every day.
Even so. who wants to be Mobile
or Amundsen?
THE TEXAS Fruit Growers Ex-
change, guided BY John II. Shary,
believes firmly in the future Of the
citrus industry in the Valley.
Its initial plant, at Sharyland, has
been developed to the point where
he exchange believes IL can look
" new fields to conquer.
come time ago a site was pur-
tised at San Benito, in anticipa-
tiow they are planning for cree
srtof a packing plant there to cost

Ament. etc.

THE SAN JUAN SENTINEL has
developed a sort az creed for San
Juan. IL is crammed with good
sense. Just listen to this and pom
der:
"San Juan probably will never be
as large as New York. As a manu-
featuring center there are cities that
always will surpass il AS a plea
sure resort for tired business men
IL may not appeal. Nevertheless,
there is one field in which San Juan
can. and should. he supreme.
There are living in San Juan
some 1900 persons. Trey have
