CONSTTTUTIONALIST ARMY
HEADQUARTERS, GOMEZ PALA-
CIo, April 4-While squads of Con-
stitutionalist soldiers are lining UP
Federal prisoners in patches and
shooting them to death in Torreon
to-day, General Villa is rushing with
large force of his best troops 10
deal a final and destroying blow to
the little army Of Government fight
ers with which General Refugio We
lasco fed from the battered town.
General Herrera notified headquac-
terS here early to- day that General
Villa had left shortly after midnight
for San Pedros de Las Colonias, after
receiving a message from General
Rosalio Hernandez that the cavalry
pursuing the shattered Federal forces
had surrounded them in the hills
south of that town.
General Hernandez stated that he
would XIII or capture all of Velasco's
men, but Villa is taking no chances
on junction of the Government re-
Inducements sent from Saltillo and
Monterey with Velasco's troops. I'M
mediately after receiving the report
from Hernandez, he ordered his
troops forward, leaving only enough
in Torreon to complete the grewsome
task of burning the dead there ana
executing the Federal prisoners.
FederaIs Flee in Panic.
Hernandez revealed himself as a
brilliant cavalry leader by oyertaking
and engaging the Federals within
twelve hours after they had fled from
Torreon. The straggers from Velas-
cos army were hunted down like
prairie dogs and late on Thursday
Hernandez overlook the main body.
After d short but bloody fight. in
which the Federals lost 100 in killed
and 1913 prisoners the F'ederals fed
in complete disorder, leaving their ar
tiilery and stores Of food.
The actual strength Of the army
that fed from Torreon is not vet
known, but Is understood to number
between 5000 and 1000 men, and in
cludes the best fighters that General
Velasco had, and Genera Villa is re-
solved that it shall not be permitted
to reach Saltillo where it would
greatly strengthen the Federal gar
rison that he will have to smash be-
fore he can march on Mexico City.

heals and restores.
There is the youth who thought
lessly today is sowing wild OATS
not knowing that his midnight
orgies, his vagrant liasons, his gay
marauderings are leaving a scar
and burning out of his heart the
chivalry, the desire for decency,
the appreciation of goodness.
Some day, as be stands at the
side of an innocent girl at mar
rage altar, he will put on the mask
in an effort to keep from her
eyes the determinations which shock
and drive her away, sobbing, hor-
rifid1I and comfortless:
TT ere is the man who let's greed
an9 salfishness eat their cancerous
way into his soul. Generosity and
i telling Of kinship for his fellow
man are wiped out. He, too, may
put up his mask, perhaps a guided
one of gifts to formal charities or
to libraries-but a look behind
that mask would drive away all
who look.
The woman who let's jealousy
and envy creep into her heart, who
sacrifices the love of children for
the tango or the cabaret, who let's
her desire for gaudy dress replace
her interest in her home-these,
too, wear masks so fimsy that the
slightest breeze may lift and leave
exposed the horror of the wreckage,
Some there are who show such
vigor of soul that the scars of
youth are forgotten.
But it is dangerous-this play
ing with those emotions which
wreck and burn.
If you have pity for the chemist,
bereft of wife and friends, con-
demned to go through life avowed
and terrible, look inward at your
self and be sure that you will not
soon need a mask to blot out the
horror in the eyes of those you love.

Do You Wear a Mask?

The following which we clip
from an exchange IS 80 pertinent,
in advice, to the youths of this
great country, that we are glad to
give it space in The Itemizer. 1t
strikes deep, but the wounds 1t
makes are but healers to the lepro'
sy which is ever ready to show up
in the character of the man who
has sought the poluting paths of
life:
Would you dare to have your
wife peer behind your mask?
Would you dare to give your
friends look at you real self.
Perhaps you censured the wife
of that New York chemist, who
derseted him in horror after an
accident had destroyed his like
ness to human being.
Two years ago there was an ex-
plosion in his laboratory. Burh-
ing acid was thrown into his face.
It burned and scared. There we're
weeks in hospitals with bandages.
Life remained, but even the doc
tors shuddered as they looked on
the ravages caused by the terrible
aocident-and they sent him out
in the world with mask.
His wife had been warned not
to look. But, as he slept, her
curiosity prompted her to lift the
veil-she ran, shrieking, terrified,
her soul shriveled by the terrible
transformation which had changed
the face she loved to mocking
travesty upon humanity.
There are transformations more
horrible than those behind the
mask of the New York chemist.
There are distortions more horri-
fving than those which drove away
the devoted wife.
Many try to hide the scars upon
their soul behind mask. Some
seek the diviner surgery which

GOOD ROADS MEETING
Prowers County Gets a Recommends
ton for . $500 Appropriation

n. J. NcNillin, president of the
county good roads association, Fred
Williams, commissioner, and Ray
Strain represented Prowers county
at the Pueblo meeting Of boosters and
county commissioners last week. The
meeting heard reports from all the
southern counties Of the progress Of
road work and made recommends
tons for appropriations for this
years work. n. J. McMillin acted as
chief spokesman for the Prowers
county delegation and on the strength
Of the showing made the county Sc
cured . Recommendation for appropri-
alton Of $500 altogether. 1t was
recommended that $500 be appropri-
ated to pay half the price Of the new
road through the sand east of Carl
ton, $1,000 to assist in completing the
road to Granada, $500 on the road
north Of Lamar connecting with the
Santa Fe trail, and $500 for the
road running south through Baca
county connecting with the overland
route from Texas and Oklahoma.
This last road will be of vast i'm
portance in helping to keep the over
land travel from that section coming
up the valley instead of going west by
way Of Clayton, New Mexico, and
should have the hearty support of all
our business men. President McMil
lin called . meeting the first Of the
week to appoint committees and start
the movement to secure the confirm
alton Of all these appropriations from
