Western Newspaper Union News Service.
El Paso, Texas, March 25.-An en-
tire Mexican farm settlement near
Santa Barbara, Chihuahua, was wiped
out recently when Francisco villa and
his followers massacred over fifty men,
women and children and burned their
homes and crops, according TO a re-
port brought to the border here.
Angered because small party OF his
men had been fired upon near the
community on the previous day, Villa,
with $50 men, swooped down on the
place. The farmers stoutly defended
their homes, and it was not until twen-
ty-five or thirty had been killed and
their ammunition exhausted that the
survivors, twenty-five in number, sur
rendered, according to this report.
These survivors there is reason to
believe, would have escaped with
their lives had not one young man
crazed with grief over the loss of his
wife and family, attacked Villa and at
tempted to wrest the rebel leaders gun
from his hand. villa, being larger and
the man after struggle and shot him
dead In his fury Villa then ordered
all the men of the community put to
death and the houses, grain and other
possessions of the community burned,

According to one of the three men
who escaped death at the hands OF
the rebels, a small party of villa fol-
lowers rode up to the village and de-
manded provisions.
Being refused they threatened to
shoot up the community, and members
of the local militia. or social defend
ers, opened fire on them, driving them
into the brush.
The reprsal attack began and lasted
several hours during which time the
| farmers succeeded in killing at least
fifteen of the attacking party. Among
the villagers killed during the fighting
were number of women and children

SCOUTS PLACE IN THE WORLD

The boy scout movement is today
one of the worlds most valuable aids
in the development of higher stand
ard of citizenship, says Fl. K. Jackson,
president of Oakland-Piedmont Scout
council.
Had there been boy scouts a gener-
alton ago there would be less of the
existing spirit of national unrest, less
nationwide disloyalty. The boy scouts
of today are the men scouts of tomOr-
row. and in the growth of their patriot.
ism lies the brightest hope of this re-
public.
Established now in all progressive
countries, the boy scouts are training
to put into practice those great human
principles that must eventually lind
place in any League of Nations that
can make wars impossible. The scouts
of today are the nucleus of the Grand
Army of Peace and Good Will that will
one day bring permanent happiness TO
the world.
Think for a moment of the basic
principle of the boy scouts obligation
-"Do one good turn daily" Here is
indeed great opportunity for the
practical demonstration of the best
that is taught in our schools and our
churches; here is the new command
ment" which all creeds teach and re-

NEW TYPE OF SILK SWEATER
Baby Ribbon and Angora Collar and Cuffs Features of an Attractive
 Garment

Sweaters are doing so many things these days that it's hard to keep up with them. One clever young lady has made herself what she properly calls her real silk sweater" and it is one of the things which you may not have seen a sweater do before.
 Instead of using wool or silk floss, this young lady used baby ribbon and gave it angora collar and cuffs after the combination vogue of the present. day sweater. She expects to make a scarf collar for it after she has tired of the angora one, for she didn't knit the collar and cuffs right onto the sweater; she only snapped them on with snap-fasteners. Being very tenn peramental, she anticipated her on- coming wish for a change"
 She is going to knit the scarf of en- hrOidery ribbon instead of baby rib- bon, and snap it to the back of the sweater neck. The cuffs to go with it will be made turn-back ones just as the ones of angOra which are now on the sweater.
 It really is a fascinatingly pretty thing to wear with her silk skirts, and when she wears a ribbon sash with it well, her costume would win ad miration most anywhere!

 Woodland was awakened by the sound of someone in his room and saw . man standing near the foot of the bed He grabbed his revolver from under the pillow and fired at the in- truder.
 The thief started to run, with Wood ard after him. A mouse probably saAtt. the thief's life While Wood ard was following the intruder mouse got into trap in the Woodland kitchen. The noise led Woodland to believe tLare was another robber in the kitch- en and he hesitated long enough so that the man made his escape.

DARK SILK BROCK NECESSARY
Garment Must Be Trimmed So That 1t Will Not Be ConspicuousIy
 Decorated.

There are I:'cct JUS few WomcA who can get along successfully without a dark silk frOck. But the big problem is, how trim this mOre or less tailored silk, so that it will look finished and yet not be conspicuously decorated?
 And a very appropriate and charm ing solution is the novel use of open work embroidery shown on many an exclusive dark silk. A navy taffeta, for instance, is a decidedly more fetching thing for bit of eyelet deco ration done in matching color or in another neutral tone. And now that trimming is moving down to the bot tom. of skirts, what charming chance to move some rather bold eyelet work down there When it comes to treat to work up beautifully about round neck, now that so many smart neck lines are ribbon run.
 Then you can do really striking things, with serge cutouts on the dark silk ground. Instead of the more usual braiding business there is the serge scroll idea which is the very making of the severely simple satin or taffeta or tricolette dress. Follow the rather bolder designs suggested for braid work, and cut out in velour or serge, then double machine-stitch to the surface that you are ornamenting. The purple and navy, and black and navy combinations give excellent re- suits by this method.
