Title: "Borda gives to God."
Description: Text transcribed from caption: ‘BORDA GIVES TO GOD’ #C-1347 TASCO, Mexico [sic] -- Few churches in the world have been founded under more unusual circumstances than this magnificent edifice here which was completed in 1757. The man who built it was a French miner, Joseph le Borde, called by the Mexicans Jose de la Borda. The story is that one day la Borda, downcast over a streak of bad luck, was on his way to Mexico City when his mule’s hoof sank into the ground and stuck there. Borda dismounted and examined the ground. There he discovered evidence of a vein of silver, from which he was to amass a huge fortune. The incident restored his faith and he decided to erect a church dedicated to San Sebastian and Santa Prisca; hence the Mexican saying, “God gives to Borda, Borda gives to God.” The mines discovered by Borda still produce vast quantities of silver. Tasco itself has been declared a national monument by the Mexican Government and building construction is not permitted unless approved by the national art commission.

For several years a movement has been under way to supplant Saint Nicholas, the jolly bewhiskered Santy Claus beloved by children of every land, with a flamboyant, befeathered Indian. Quetzalcoatl may have served very well to brighten little Aztec hearts centuries ago, but Santy Claus is the guy, according to these eleven little Mexican students.

Title: “Indian” Jews sing in Synagogue.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: #908 “INDIAN” JEWS SING IN SYNAGOGUE A group of members of the congregation of “Indian” Jews located on the outskirts of Mexico City sing to the accompaniment of a pedal-organ. The men have their heads covered, as the Mosaic law requires. Orthodox Judaism does not permit the use of any musical instruments within the synagogue, but Mexico’s Indian Jews have probably not heard of this.
