nRowNsvILLE's gala day OF the

I'D visit Of President Ortiz Rubio
early in october keeps growing
in fete importance.
It is now expected that Governor
Dan Moody will be present for the
ieSeasion. Governor Moody has sig
Ifiiied his intentions Of being in San
Antonio to meet the French filters
and then coming on to Brownsville
TO meet the visiting president of
Mexico.
President Rubio is expected in
Reynosa Oct. s and in Brownsville
Oct. Z or shortly thereafter.
BETTING the occasion our own
nation viii have at least a repre-
sentative Of President Hoover TO
meet the President OF Mexico. Why
could not President Hoover him
self come to meet the highest
official of a neighboring nation? II
would also be his last chance TO Wis
II Texas as a Republican state.
THE maze Of circulars has started
again in Harlingen. One trou-
bic with these circulars Is that
4 they wind through 81 many things,
In an attempt TO blame so many
persons, or organizations, for so
many things. that 1t takes a Phila-
celphia lawyer - figure out what
il is all about, unless lives in
Harlingen and is close to the stu
alton. From what can be gathered
those muchly stirred up over the
situation seem TO be limited almost
entirely to those directly behind
the printing Of the circulars.
THE Jewish new year begins to-
night. In celebration Of this
great day in Jewish history ap-
propriate ceremonies will be held
in Brownsville and all over the
United States.
They celebrate the year 5.69l or
the time elapsed since they were de-
lvered by Moses from the house Of
bondage in the land of Egypt. Not
only is the Jewish race n of the
most remarkable in history in hav-
ing kept its identity through all
manner of persecution and while
being scattered over the face OF the
globe, but civilization is indebted TO
IL for the Christian religion.
VThe holiday is observed from sun
ST today until sunset tomorrow. One
feature OF the service Is the sounding
Of the Shofar, or the rams horn.
The Jews are a proud race, and
rightly so.
III. yes-we said We would answer
the question about the Oldest
public building and what II is
noted for. This building is the I'm
aculate Conception church founded
in 1856 and is noted for its gothic
architecture. Built out OF brick
manufactured in Brownsville. 1t
stands as a monument almost of
perfection in style.
TO 20 on with our daily squibs of
knowledge about Brownsville,
here is another well worth arm
ing yourself with against questions
OF strangers.
DO you know that Boca Chica
bathing beach is considered the best
beach for surf bathing on the Gulf
of Mexico. and that it Is n of the
few beaches on the mainland Of the
gulf coast? incidentally il Is con-
nected by a hard surface road which
goes down TO the water.
MINATED Annie says that if a
III little knowledge about Browns
vile is a dangerous thing she is
a walking plague.
She wants to know how business
can continually be on an uphill
grade in a Valley.
MONDAY morning has arrived and
no deaths are reported as a re-
suit Of automobile accidents.
Now let's see If we cannot keep 1t
that way.
TO-DAY the day and night are of
equal length. but to some people
the nights seem shorter. even
th&t OF December p, judging from
tho time they 80 to work.
