Execration of Judas
Marks Mexican Easter
Easter throughout Mexico ’s cele
brated by the hanging of Judas. For
two weeks before the end of Lent the
shopa display hundreds of quaint fig
ures ranging In size and prtce from a
little toy a couple of Inches long and
costing only 1 cent to an eight-foot
Image of the arch betrayer marked at
823. All are made Hllke, being con
structed, with a light wooden frame
work and pnpler mache head with a
brightly painted complexion and
bristling mop of coarse hair of rav
eled rope-yarn dyed black. Sometimes
Judas has a flowing beard, sometimes
only fierce mustaches, but he is al
ways made us repulsive as ¡»ossible,
cross-eyed and beetle-browed, with
huge outstanding ears and leering Ups.
On the very small Judases the hirsute
adornments are merely painted, but
what cun he expected for only a cent?
Judas Is always clothed in pupei gar
ments of many colors, green predom
inating. though why that particular
hue should be associated with the
crime of the ages is a mystery as great
as the custom Itself. The more expen
sive Judai dolls are filled with fire
works that explode and make a great
racket wh -n the match Is applied to
the ettigy.
Others are stuffed with
candy, nut these are only hung in pri
vate grounds where the purchaser and
his friends can enjoy the sweets while
watching Judas burn.
Though the hated figure is destroyed
In different ways it is always first
hung with appropriate maledictions
and Insults, and left to dangle in the
breeze until nightfall, when It is either
set fire to where It hangs, if it Is pos
sible to do so without endangering
property, or cut down and thrown on
huge bonfires kindled for the purpose.
Sometimes Judas is drugged through
the streets by a rope attended by a
singing, shouting mob of men and
boys until nothing is left of the
grotesque manikin but. a few scraps
of torn paper. All day long, while It
hangs from clothes lines, balconies,
street signs, hitching posts or trees,
Judas is stoned by every passing man,
woman and child. Many broken win
dows are the result, hut nobody com
plains, because It is the proper thing
to do. A Mexican would as soon for
get to go to mass on Good Friday as
to pass a Judas without pelting It
with sticks, stones, chunks of mild, tin
missile
cans, empty bottles or
nearest to his hand.

Vigorous Easter Dance
There are many old-time English
country dances more weird and won
derful than the jazz.
The coconut dancers of Rossendala,
in Lancashire, celebrate the. anniver
sary according to ancient custom by
a dance the like of which Is to b«
seen nowhere else on earth.
They caper, they prance, they twist
round and round like whirling der
vishes. and perform many other star
tling evolutions. Their costumes, too,
are unique. They wear floral turbans,
kilts; whtte'ktock Ings, and
