12 pp., 50 cents U.S. in the United States, 1 Mexican peso in Mexico and Central and South America.

The volume numbering of the journal (year 12, no. 6, is February 1929) can not reflect the start of this journal since Mora's Luz y Verdad branch of the EMECU was only started in June 1923. Perhaps the numbering was meant to indicate that this was intended to be a successor to Mora's earlier journal, La Ofrenda, begun in Laredo in 1917 or 1918. The journal was the organ of Luz y Verdad, Catedra No, 7 of Joaquin Trincado's Escuela Magnetico-Espiritual de la Comuna Universal. The journal boasted, in words copied by the 1931 EMECU journal Luz y Ciencia in San Antonio, that it was the cheapest journal in Mexico and the U.S., with the largest circulation -- a phrase that may indicate something about the circulation of Texan Spanish-language spiritualist journals. On the EMECU and Trincado, see the note under Balanza. The journal contained excerpts from Trincado's writings and advertisements for his published works.
