ISLA MUJERES
HOSPlTABLE
Spanish Conquistadores
Landed First On
Strange Land
BY A c sTARR-HuNr

IL 0ACh 81 AAA-E1ON
MEXICO CITY, March 13-The
rfrst spot encountered By the Span
sh "conquistadores' on their way
TO the American mainland to ex-
plore the new world, was an island
IN the Caribbean of Quintana Roo,
the inaccessible jungle territory OF
tropical Mexico.
This island, called "Isla Muieres''
or "Wonen's Island" today is a
sunny strip Of waving cocoanut
palms along the beach OF silver
sand. 1t is q perfect setting for
a Treasure Island with its many
natural caves.
FsnaIe Idols Adored
When the Spanish conquerors
landed at Isla Mujeres they found
a Maya temple where female idols
were adored. Here they set I'D the
first cross in the New World, upon
the ruins Of the temple. These
ruins have been washed away for
years.
On Isla Mujeres there IS an am
bilious little school attended by
about so Of the islands $50 inhab-
itants. The school has three tea
cheers. AS most Mexican rural
schools. this one has a school gar
den. In the garden pink. white,
yellow and blue sea shells are used
by the children 10 mark off the
patches OF lettuce and beans. The
school also maintains an outdoor
theatre, where the children recite
poems. dance their native dances,
and sing their native songs.
Cordial
The inhabitants of Isla Mujeres
are cordial 70 visitors. Among the
island dwellers is q venerable old
gentleman who is always pleased
to welcome strangers, and invari-
ably finds an opportunity in the
conversation to tell them proudly
about his 43 children who live in
Payo Obispo. across the water on
the mainland
Once a month a ship touches the
island, coming from Progreso. in
Yucatan. Recently this ship left
a radio sending and receiving set
on the island, but so far not much
has been accomplished with its aid
In the way Of establishing communi-
cation with the outside world. There
is no post office on the island, and
there is no telegraph service.
One Of the mysteries Of the little
island is why it should be called
Women's Island. There is nothing
In sight except men. a few dogs. and
about fifty huts over which palm
trees wave.

1t is n thing 70 carr your own
way through college. but it is an
other to defray your college ex-
penses, and, in addition. support a
mother and six brothers and sis
ter.
That, however. is what Ingrid
Mattson. winsome little Iron River
girl, is doing. But Ingrid, who is
only 10 years old, is national junior
poultry champion. And it is her
unusual skill as a poultry raiser
that enables her TO shoulder the
burden she does.
Ingrid started her flock just nine
years ago. She had only Just one
old hen. She purchased a brood Of
% chicks which the hen mothered.
Today she has 200 chickens and her
income from eggs layed by the flock
foots her college bills and supports
her family here.
In her second year in the bust
ness. Ingrid had 30 chickens and
