"Come and be gay with us"

Not everything was like a dark sky for people during world war two. Men, women, and children would distract themselves by following the tradition that they use to do back home. Mexicans for example would follow their tradition of charros. Mexicans would dress like charros (horseman) and ride horses in charreadas. During the world war two the common world for being happy was “gay.” The charros celebrations would inspire people to make postcards of a mexicans life,the slogan of the early years,”come and be gay with us”, spirit of a joyous mood.
