METH. CHURCH TO
SHOW SOUND film
SUNDAY EVENING

Sunday evening at 8 o'clock the
Methodist Church will present a
sound film entitled Down Mexico
Way"
Down Mexico Way is a true
story of an Individual, but 1t Is
much more than that. 1t is record
of a great movement of population
from Mexico to the United States
and the work of the Church among
these newcomers. In 1848, by the
terms Of the treaty of Guadalupe
Hidalgo made with Mexico, vast
area which we commonly refer to
as the Southwest came under the
control of the United States. At
that time there were many Spanish
speaking people in the territory,
and to this day the state of New
Mexico is distinctly bilingual
state. ough these Spanish
speaking folk have been United
States citizens for several genera
lions. Other old Spanish speaking
groups are to be found in Califor-
mia, Arizona and Texas
The story, however, is not of
these Older Spanish speak n g
groups but of more recent migra-
ton of Mexicans into the United
States which was tremendously
stimulated by our need of workers
during the first World War. At
that time every inducement was
given for Mexicans to come to the
States. Some came through the
regular immigration channels and
others came across the border I'M
announced There has been much
coming and going across the bor-
der but large numbers of these
Mexican immigrants have remain
ed in the States. Their children
born in the United States are citi-
zens by right of birth
The story of the picture is that
of boy in old Mexico who, after
his father is killed by bullet, comes
with his mother into the United
States. He lived, worked and grew
up in the lower Rio Grande Valley
of Texas. He was won to Christ by
the pastor of a Methodist Mexican
Church. He went away to q church
school, and later attended Holding
Institute, Ell Paso. Texas. He is
now a successful pastor of an i'm
portant Mexican Church in Texas.
The story is one of struggle and
achievement told in intimate detail.
