El Paso, Texas.
Dominant in an area larger
than all of the United States
east of the Mississippi river, j
situated 3,767 feet above the sea
level, the only large city along
2,000 miles of Mexican border,
and the main gateway to Mexico,
El Paso. Texas, to quote from a
pamphlet, is "The most progressive
city in the State of
Texas and the largest city in the
'Rocky Mountain Southwest'
south of Denver, west of San j
Antonio or Fort Worth and east
of Los Angeles?a city of beauti- !
ful homes and magnificent busi-1
ness builbings, and of boundless!
business opportunities."
This is the city near which I
the Fort Mill and other soldiers
from South Carolina are en-,
camped, seven miles out of the
mesa, their camp being over!
4,000 feet above the sea level.
El Paso has a population of
70,000. and is the natural me-1
tropolis of the northern States
of Mexico, as of West Texas,
New Mexico and Arizona. The
pass by the El Paso route over
the Continental Divide, is the
lowest between the Isthmus of
Tehauntepec and the Artie Sea
(a distance of 4,700 miles) and
is open the year round and free
from storms. Four transcontinental
railroads cross the divide
at this point and a great many
overland automobile routes. |
Eight railroads centre in El 1
Paso. The primary resources of
El Paso include mining, agri-1
culture, livestock and timber: !

excellent and her trade relations
with an area of 1,000,()(?0 square
miles are dominant. The city
takes toll from the heavy tourist
travel across the continent and
into Mexico.
Orphan Work Day.
The custom has grown up of
having one day in the year set
aside as Orphan Work Day.
That means that all friends of
the orphans work on that day
and that whatever they make
little or much, they send to various
denominational orphanages.
More and more the custom has
spread until now it means a great
deal to the orphanages.
This year, September 30th is
orphan work day.
Whatever you make on that
day, if you are a Presbyterian,
should be sent to Thornwell Orphanage.
Clinton, S. C., for it is
the Presbyterian orphanage of
Georgia, Florida and South Carolina.
Many children, fatherless ,
and motherless, are there from
your State, and they are being
trained in hand, head and heart.
If it were not for Thornwell Orphanage
they would not get this
training.
Will you not, then, set yourself
to work on the 30th, and get \
others to work, and send that
day's income to your little brothers
and sisters, who must be
cared for, and whom you love
to help?
Remember the day, September
30th.
Cut this out and read it to the
members of your family.
