That Is what Mrs. Wilna Kincaid, instructor at Medford high school, said Wednesday night in describing the Mexican and his interesting country to the south at the second of a series of "armchair cruises" at the Girls Community clubhouse. Mrs. Kincaid has spent two summers in Mexico and found the Mexican to be a friendly and gracious Individual, not only to strangers but to his neighbor. A country one fourth the area I of the United States with a population of 19,000,000, 80 per cent of this number are Indian and reside in high plateau re gions. Many Mexicans carry guns because they are proud of their highly bedecked holsters; they hold siesta after their luncheon hours, and visit with friends, and stores remain open later In the evening to compen sate for lost time. They are ro mantic through love of music and arts. Homes of the Mexican are constructed to suit the climate, the mud house being used In the warm belt, the stone house in the cold high plateau region and the thatched hut in the low lands. Of the 28 states Into which Mexico Is divided, each has its own national dance. Its music, art and language which causes lack of complete unity between the states. The country has had to fight domination of the church, land owners, dictators and the out side world and Mrs. Kincaid pointed out that at present the country Is undergoing a social revolution. The speaker told of Interest ing side trips taken to small villages and towns where she found lovely hand woven mater ials, silversmiths, pottery mak ers, basket weavers and many hand tooled articles. The Mexi can in many parte of the coun try still relies on himself to carry his burden and many an Interesting sight was to see the gay -clad Mexican carrying heavy burdens by baskets sus pended by a strap from his fore head. The patient, plodding bur ro still holds his place in Mexi can mode of transportation. Flowers were abundant and Inexpensive. Mrs. Kincaid pur chased many orchids for a small sum. Particularly noticeable is the Increase of Spanish in the Amer ican schools with radios spon soring Spanish programs. April 14 will ba Pan-American day and dedicated to the purpose of bringing about goodwill and Inter-American security and understanding, Mrs. Kincaid said. Many colorful Mexican arti cles were shown by Mrs. Kin caid among them straw figures, carved mahogany box. gourd pitchers and wall placques, pot tery bright with hand-drawn designs, serapes, silver Jewelry, colored glassware and other Items.
