FuUOrs LazU and Order

MEXICO CITY, Feb. 18.-Invitat TO
Francisco Villa or "Pancho" as he used
to be known in the days Of his outlawry,
to join the revolutionary agitations
against the Obregon government, have
fallen upon deaf ears, for the former

disappearing eye upon anything that OPP
poses law and order.
Villas loyalty to the government is
more notable in contrast with the wave of
anti government agitations now sweeping
some quarters. 1t was reported that
''Pancho," to set at rest any anxiety that
may be felt toward his attitude, will
shortly come to Mexico City to reaffirm
his support to the Obregon regime.

.A|RPLANE MAKES VOYAGE
TO SAVE HUNGRY PEOPLE

Marooned on little ranch in the
Red Rock district, twelve miles north
of Reno, a father, mother and two
children were saved from great suf-
fering from hunger by the timely use
of an air mail plane which carried
food in sacks TO the lonely little
ranch house and dropped the sacks
in front of the yard while the moth
er and children gazed upward and
waved a thankful and happy goodby
as the big plane slowly circled over
their heads and started back to Reno,
says the Gazette.
A visit from Santa Claus, with his
flying RENDERS, would not have been
as surprising or as welcome as was
the visit of the air mail plane, be-
cause the family's supply of groceries
was almost exhausted, the father is
| i'll and the family had no way of
making their plight known to the
outside world and no way of reach
ing Reno to secure more supplies.
The father, J. Welch. came to
Reno about three weeks ago and pur-
chased a small supply of groceries.
On his way back to the ranch he
stopped at the ranch of Carl Barnes
and was apparently i'll at the time.
Then the big storm came and Barnes,
who knew the condition of the fam
| ily, watched daily for Welch to go
to Reno to get more supplies. He
also inquired at the grocery store
where Welch traded. Thinking the
man must be i'll and that the family
was practically marooned in the des-
ert without food, Barnes set out for
the ranch in his car, but after going
only q few miles the car was mired
in the mud and ii took four horses
to pull it out Then with a sack of
groceries tied to the saddle Barnes
started on horseback to take the food
to the isolated family, but because of
the deep snow and mud he could not
make the trip
Returning to Reno Barnes went to
the air mail field and enlisted the
help of Major Tomlinson. Pilot
Vance volunteered to fly the plane
with Barnes as a passenger. With
three large sacks of groceries tied
over the side of the machine they
left the field In the morning and
were back in half an hour AS the
plane circled low over the isolated
little ranch house the mother came
running out OF the door and looked
up just as big sack of groceries
dropped into the yard. Then the
children came out and the three
stood In the yard while the plane
made two more circles over the
house. dropping a sack of groceries
each time. Bacon, beans, canned
goods, flour. sugar and other neces-
stiles made up the grocery list and
the family needs are taken care of
for several days. This is the first
time so far as air mail officials here
know. that the air mail service he's
been used to bring aid to isolated
families.
