EJj PASO, Tex., Nov. 16.—In enu
merating the beneficial results of the
mobilization of national guardsmen
upon the border someone has dwelt
upon the educational advantages.
“Everyone of the hundred odd thou
sand militiamen,” they say “will go
back to his home with a clearer know
ledge of a new section of our country
and an understanding of the Mexican
situation.
So as soon as the tents are up and
he can get “town leave” the newly
awived guardsman hurries down to
learn all he can about the Mexicans
and the “situation,” see the famous
international bridge and catch a
glimpse of the turbulent country at
the other end of it. It is a thrilling
experience—if the “guardie” has im
agination. The soldiers of the patrol
furnish the educational features.
At first sight the bridge is a bit
disappointing. It is a rickety wooden
affair. And the “silvery Rio Grande”
mentioned frequently in the popular
songs is a distinct shock. It is nei
ther silvery qor grand. At this sea
son of the year it is a mere thread
of dirty water meandering over the
sandy river bed. Usually a dozen
naked Mexican children are attempt
ing to get wet or dirtier.
"Huh,” sneered a Pittsburg guards
man, “it isn’t near as dirty as our
river . With two blotters I could blot
up their dinged river.”
ii la significant alter me mot oignt
of the stream, the newcomers insist
upon calling it “their river.”
After gazing silently at the clus
ters of drab adobe huts sprawling up
the sides of the barren mountain back
of the town, the newcomer has a lot
of questions to ask. This is where
the education begins.
“Say, pard, are there many bandits
over there?"
The nonchalant militiaman on pa
trol regards the seeker-after-knowl
edgt with scant interest. He is a vet
eran of the border service. These
“rooks” annoy him. He has been on
the border three months.
“Ain't it kinda dangerous doin’
guard* duty right across from ’em?”
pursues the undaunted seeker-after
knowledge.
“Wal, yes,” yawns the veteran,
“Yes, we do have a lotta trouble with
them bandits. But one gets used to it
in time.”
The seeker-after-knowledge throws
an apprehensive glance at the other
( side. It looks quiet enough. Scores
[ of shapeless women are hovering
t over little fires cooking meals on the
shady bank. Vendors of vegetables
and cigarettes are wailing their wares
plaintively. Children in every degree
of nakedness are playing in the sand
in the sun.
But at the other end of the bridge
are several sinister dark-faced fig
ures fondling Mausers. They are
leaning against the railings, each with
a two-bushel hat pulled over their
eyes. They are the Carranzistas cus
toms guard.
“Do them fellows ever get to snip
in’?”
“Oh, yes.” The veteran casts a
sharp look at the opposite bank. “We
watch ’em pretty close. They’s usual
ly not much doin’ until after dark.”
The newcover is visibly impressed.
He envies the hardened veteran his
careless demeanor in the face of
danger.
“What are them red horse blankets
they wear around their shoulders?”
The “rook’s” thirst for information is
insatiable.
.“Them? Oh them call ’em tortil
las.” Of course the rook doesn't know
now that a tortilla is a pancake. But
jj he’ll learn border ways fast enough,
p Within a month he will be tutoring
i some other “rook” and satisfying hia
. thirst for knowledge.
It’s a great life, this border serv
I ice, any way you take it—and there
1 are the educational advantages.
