 Because there has been no food sup plies in Mexico within the past two years, it was the belief of MT. Ahearn that the United States could starve the people if they closed all the ports of entry The reason that the Mex jean people have not raised anything is due to the fact that the different factions would make it point to steal anything that they happened across on their numerous raids. When faction was proceeding through town the leader might desire to tickle his palate with a beef heart. A num- ber of cattle would be killed, so that enough hearts could be secured to sat- isfy the taste of the various leaders. The carcasses of the animals would then be left by the roadside to spoil. Ther ewas a battle in the town Of Nogales shortly before MT. Ahern's ar rival on his last trip. E He was able to secure fairly accurate account of the fighting.
 "The Villa bandits were occupying a position on the top of, and inside of four freight cars standing on the Mex leo side of the town,' he said. They 1ntende0 to leave oH lHeSe cars but were obliged to remain be- hind as the, locom otive was unable to draw the entire train. American troops were on the United States side of the international boundary and about 10 feet from the imaginary line. awaiting any disturbances. About 10 o'clock on the morning of the eighth a shot was fired from the freight train at the United States troopers stretched out behind the line. The Americans replied with a volley. Forty Mexicans were killed, every one shot through the head in the battle which fol- lowed. It lasted only short time. Carranza troops entered later and | drove the Va1listas away"
 MT. Ahern intends to return to Mex
 leo as soon as the United States troops
 enter that county.

G.. of, New London have been ordered to. Camp Holcomb at Mi antic. The story originated from statements made by some members of these companies who. returned Sat- urday afternoon from a 10 days tour of duty at Fort H. G. Wright.
 These men said orders had been received to report at Camp Holcomp today and probably other companies of the corps would follow them. Col. Dorsey said that although the officers and members of his. command have volunteered to serve as infantry if needed no. orders calling them out have yet been received.

.CAVALRYMEN AID s NATURE TO TURN
 RUSTY WINDMILL
Rescue Party Tells of Thrill. ing Experience in Get
 ting Water.

Field dNHeadquarters, June 2S, by mo- tor courier to Columbus, N. M., July 3-Out of a dust haze today returned the squadron of the 11th cavalry sent under Major John M. Jenkins to search for the survivors of Carrizal. These arrivals talked only little of their experiences but their description of their efforts to save their horses from perishing revealed the story of a march unequalled In the present ex- petition.
 While scouting near Carrizal for some trail that would give a hint of the location of the retreating Ameri- can soldiers, Major Jenkins made a might stop at an abandoned wind mill. All about stretched the desert and powdery dust which the man had in haled at every breath. A few clumps of grease weed with tiny yellow leaves dotted the endless expanse of mesa on three sides. To the south stood a low range of mountains l.o road, no trail, no sign of habitation marked the sandy waste. q rode to the trough at the wind- mills foot" Major Jenkins said. There was water there but so full of dust that the horse, his throat raw
 
 night the cavalrymen cleaned the trough. They repaired the windmill by tying handkercht&fs about the broken pushing. A desert gale pumped enough water for the night but the command sawoke at daybreak to. find the windmill becalmed and their horses too weakened by days of hard riding through the desert to be risked, with toutsa drink ito the next water hole. -Four troopers were sent to the top of the windmill with orders to turn 1t by hand. Tte rickety structure trem- bled with age. When a puff of wind sent the wheel spinning, the brown. bearded cavalrymen below cheered. The stream produced was little larger than lead pencil but after an hour each horse and man had been given a tsmaal drink.A q S
 The command encountered for the first time in Mexico the ca1iche rock. a sort of dry clay, the dust of which filled the air when the wind fresh- ened, and settled in the eyes. ears, throats and nostrils of men and anil mals. The horses discovered that they could quench their thirst temporarily by nipping galIeta grass, containing succulent shoots. Lack of feed for the horses caused the squadron to turn back finally. abandoning their search. It was still many miles from the headquarters when the last of the oats was fed to the mounts. For time it seemed that the horses must perish but the men pushed them on by sheer will power and a sense of duty"
 When the squadron arrived here to- day the trucks accompanying the col fumn were in the lead and had passed through sand wastes heretofore be- lieved impossible.

BILLY'S LOGIC

DILLY Mailer of the Springfield Ad-
X vance took exception to The Ga
- zettes mention of the city's forty
five high school graduates as compared
with the scant dozen or two produced by
the neighboring towns, including Spring
field. Billy bases this long-winded and
much-worded exception on the fact that
we have had two rather reprehensible hap
penings in municipal court here recently.
Now isn't that just like Billy Mahler's
logical CD mind! Because Redwood Falls
has the best schools in this section of Min
nesota, she should have no family dis
graces within her midst; and vice versa
because she has these occasional dis
graces she cannot possibly have good
schools. It would take mind profound
with the psychic sciences to see the subtle
connection between the two, but Billy's
wonderful mentality didn't have a bit OF
trouble. 'Rah for Blly!' We've been Won
derfully proud of our school system and
it's successes, but now our pride is dragged
in the dust. because, sdeath! we had a
trio of intoxicated park visitors and some
card players. Shall we forthwith not
abandon our schools and any attempts at
real civilization since, according to Bllly's
master mind, there is a deep and undyng
connection between our schools and the
dreadful crime-wave? Let us consider,
these things and consult with Billy.
By the way Mr.. Mailer hints that
Springfield has no skeleton in her Closet.
Indeed! Well, Springfield is in Brown
County-and we all know what happens
to the constables of Brown County cities
when they report they have found wrong
conditions.
We reterate our statement made in
the Gazette of June Z.
"Springfeld had six high school
graduates, Marshall had fourteen,
Olivia had sixteen; Redwood Falls had
fOrty-fve. There's a reason!'

THE YOUNG GRADUATE

THIS is the season of the young hope
full who believes he has learned how
to shoot Armed with his sheep
skin, he starts forth to conquer. He never
thinks, as a rule, that sheepskin is too
pliabe lever with which to turn the
world from it's course. However, that is
we'll, for the superb confidence Of Youth
is necessary at the start, for the opposi-
tion with which the young man will meet
later in life will gradually break down his
over-confdence until the normal amount
is left with which to fight his battle for
success. The Japanese have some good
advice for the young graduate. They say:
Keep your mouth closed; he who al
ways has his mouth open shows that his
mind is blank.
Think of that at which you are looking !;
one whose eye is always wandering tells
that his mind also is wandering.
When paying your respects, look at the
person whom you are saluting.
A boy should act like boy; avoid be-
coming eliminate.
When it is hot think it is cold; when
it is cold, think it is hot.
1t is shame to wear torn clothes with
out mending them, but to wear the torn
part patched is nothing to be ashamed of.
Know what shame is; he who does not
know what shame is, is inferior to dumb
animals.
When in good health, train yourself to
endure physical labor; when you are i'll,
however, obey your physicians instruc-
tions.

Consolidated schools are coming be-
cause the farmer boy and girl are en-
titled to as good educational advan-
tages as the town and city boy and
girl.-Fairmont Sentinel.
Yes, but there are still large number
of parents who will willingly pay from
five to eight hundred dollars per year for
educational purposes after the children
reach university age, but will kick like the
proverbial ebay steers at the few dollars
for the extra tax necessary to give their
boys and girls good school conditions in
their early childhood. The first years of
a child's school life are the foundation on
which is built the whole structure of his
future education-of the mental house he
must occupy all his life. And yet we con-
stantly find benighted parents and school
officers who talk high taxes. Of all the
unsupportable and idiotic human econ
omies that is the most unsupportable and
most idiotic.

ENTERTAINING

Entertainment and being entertained is
funny business. It is really an exchange

lodging and the companionship of others
who do the same thing and entertain
hospitality. joy in having your friends in
your home, has given Place to "entertain-

haps better business, and we live in a
