Thought  for  Today

“At the bottom of his shaft the Mexican Miner has a shrine of the Blessed Virgin, dressed usually in overall with a miner’s hat cocked over her head. Here, when he goes to work, he prays for a day free from accident; and before leaving, many a peon prays again, this time that the high-grade ore he has stolen and hidden about himself will not be discovered.” 

John van Steen 
Tolman in “Travel”
