actual fighters.
This is true probably because the pres

other conflict of recent times. Nearly
every woman in northern Mexico has seen
warfare. shorn of its theatricaity be-
cause it entered the home and left death
and want. Many of these women have
left their homes rather than remain alone
and few of them have gone under fire
to get revenge.

Senorita Maria Sanchez, said to be a
wealthy Castilian, whose brother was
shot by federal irregulars. She gave up
the comforts of a luxurious home and
begged for permission to replace her
brother.
Mother Freed Son
A few months ago at Monclova a son
of Sonora Pmentala, of that city, had
been sentenced to be shot. The mother
got into the federal jail by stealth and
stabbing two of the guards, released her
boy. Both made their way to the consti
tutionalists army headquarters then at
Hermanas, 20 miles away.
In the federal ranks there is told the
story of the wife of an officer, who led
the constitutionalists into AN ambuscade
at Puerta Carmen and, though fired upon
by the maddened troops. galloped through
the lines to her husbands side.
When less than a month ago the fed
eral army of General Mass occupied the
constitutionalists' provisional capital at
Piedras Negras, on the American border
across from Eagle Pass, the "soldaderas'
played an important role in the blood
