Splendid String
of Boxing Events
at Brawley Arena

joe Mandot, known as one of the
best and@m popular fighters who
ever performed in these parts, made
his reappearance in the main event
at the American Legion arena in
Brawley last night, after several
months on the coast, where he evi-
IDENTIFY picked up u trick or two
which enabled him to take the de-
cision last night from Johnny Sar
miento, the tough little Filipino,
after four hairraising rounds. The
decision was Il close one, Joe having
piled up Il lead in the early rounds
by clever infighting.
Sarmiento took some terrible pun
ishment at close range, but showed
himself one tough hombrc by com
ing back for more.
Lightning Bolts Villareal, Sar-
micnto's partner in the ring, scored
technical k. 0. over Young Good
fellow of Portland, when the lat
ter's seconds threw IN the towel
just before the beginning of the
fourth round. Villareal uncorked
one of those mysterious lightning
bolts in the closing seconds of the
third round, which dropped Good
fellow to the floor. Nillareal is a
conner and mighty clever kid.
10 Loses to Clay
Kid Clay of Brawley took the de-
cision from Young 10 of CaleXico,
and though it was the only decision
the judges could make, Clay hardly
deserved it for his apparent unwill-
ingness to follow up his leads should
have counted against him the same
as his blows were counted for him.

Connie Mack is

NEW YORK, May 5.-For the
first time since he broke up one of
baseball s greatest machines back
in 1915, Connie Mack exposed him
self to the public glare yesterday
in the Yankee stadium.
II was an ipso facto Indication
that Connie is no longer ashamed
of his Philadelphia Athletics. Many
New York critics after looking over
the tribe Of young men who carry
Mack s white elephants think they
are good enough TO Justify their tall
leader in taking u place on the
coaching line.
The arrangement at the new Yank
stadium forced Mack TO expose
himself even before the game start
ed. There is no cellar entrance to
the dugout of the visiting club at
the Yank stadium and the players
and their managers have to strut
across the open spaces to their
bench.

Not the least indication of the
rapid evolution in business methods
during the Twentieth Century has
been the changing position of the
banks
1t has not been many years since
z good many bankers might have
been forced TO plead guilty to the
charge of being nothing but glori-
fled pawn brokers. twenty years
ago banks were looked upon in
many quarters as safe deposit in.
eiitutions and as money lending
shops. OF recent years this con
ception has changed rapidly until
today if modern business may be
likened to the wheel of economic
progress, banking is recognized as
the hub of that wheel with the var.
icus industries radiating from it as
the spokes, with commerce acting
as the rim and consuptiOn as the
tire. Incidently, that tire some
times suffers from q pucture, and
with deflation comes some rather
severe jolts on the rest of the
wheel.)
The strategic position Of the
banks is due to the fact that they
are the cooperative credit organi-
cations upon which business builds
its activities.
To state the functions of bank,
insofar as they relate simply to
strictly banking operations, is u
comparatively simple matter. First
and foremost, banks act as dcposi-
taries for customers funds and are
charged with the duty of so pro-
tectjng those funds as to insure
their safety and Immediate avail
ability. After gathering the ere.
dit resources of the community
into Il pool the next duty is to
lend those funds so rs to assist in
in the development of business
and the maintenance of prosperity
within the community, so far as
this function can be performed
without in any way jeopardizing
the safety aud the immediate avail
ability of deposits.
Practically every business of
any size is a borrowing business,
some borrowing primarily for capi-
tai purposes, others for CONNER

Game Birds Destroy Crop Pests

Farmers near Froid are already
taking steps to protect grouse and
prairie chicken from slaughter by
hunters when the season again opens
next fall.
The birds have again become quite
plentiful since the closed season
went into effect although poachers
have been active during the past
falls in sneaking out and cleaning
up a few coveys during the early
morning hours. Several farmers are
already posting signs prohibiting
hunting on their land.
If farmers do as they are now in
tending to do, the chances for tooth
some young chicken next fall will be
exceedingly slim.
1t is said large flocks of grouse
have done much in exterminating
bugs and grasshoppers and for this
reason if no other, farmers do not
care to have the birds molested.

BERKIN is DEAN
STATE PIONEERS
OBSERVED HIS NINETY-SEVENT
BIRTHDAY IN BUTTE A
FEW DAYS AGO
ONTANA'S oldest trail blazer,
MI William Berkin, was recently

ONTANA'S oldest trail blazer,
MI William Berkin, was recently
40 guest at a party given in bis
honor at his home at the Orphan
Girl mine, the occasion being his
ninety-seventh birthday. Present
at the reception were many of his
oId-time friends from out of town.
His son, John Berkin of Butte, and
his oldest child, Mrs. Kenneth Nc
Kenzie of Anaconda, also attended.
1t was after crossing the plains
in '64 that MIR. Berkin arrived at
Fort Benton, then scarcely more
than an outpost of civilization.
Here it was that Indians and
whites alike gathered to barter
their goods, while Uncle Sam, rep
resented by a detachment of sol
diers, kept his watchfuI eye on the
whole procedure.
To Mr.. Berkin belongs the distinc-
ton of having guided the first mule
pack team loaded with supplies from
Fort Benton to Virginia City, the lat
ter then being little more than a
typical mining camp with gold in
to lend spirit of ex-
element.
When the first bull train rumbled
The circle banner. [volume] (Circle, Mont.) 1914-1939, 1923-07-06

out of Fort Benton it was also under
the guidance of Mr.. Berkin, who dir
ected the building of road as the
prairie schooner advanced. John j.
Rowe & Co. of ST. Louis furnished
the bull team outfit and Nicholas
Wall of ST. Louis was Mr.. Berkin's
partner in the freighting venture.
Mr.. Berkin continued at various
occupations in the new territory UNI
til 1866, when he accepted job as
a skinner for the Diamond R freight
outfit, one of the largest in the west.
For four years he followed freight
ing. In 1870 he quit and again
struck out for himself. For some
years he followed prospecting with
varied results and then he went into
the cattle business. In this he did
fairly well, but never lost his love
for the mining game, an occupation
in which he delved until advancing
age compelled him to retire. He and
his partner, Nicholas Wall, located
the Mountain Chief mine.
OF the outfit that freighted for the
Diamond R, however, he is perhaps
the only mule skinner left to tell
of the difficulties that accompanied
the transportation of supplies across
the country in those days.

Drawn by the lure of big prize
money and the love of the game,
couple of hundred men and women
contestants gather each year at the
roundup. A queerly assorted lot
they are. Dallas, Texas, and Medi-
cine Hat, Canada; Pendleton and
New York each contribute variety
of the type. easy come, easy 60"
is their watchword. A first prize OF
$500 for two minutes of work only
means that they can enjoy a little
bit more pleasure than the person
who won second prize. With the car
fare home safely sailed away they
start out to elbow" the town.
Ten-Gallon Hats
The clothes of the roundup tribe
make the big show great exhibition
of color. First of all to be noticed
are the ten-gallon hats, the official
sign of the profession. Then the
startling color of silk shirts jump up
to strike the eye, and make the eff
forts of the city decorating commit
tee seem tame indeed. Trousers APP
pear to be immaterial objects and
are used mainly to cover nakedness
and to tuck in the tops of riding
boots. Decorated in weird designs
with colored leather, the boots them
selves with their high heel and arch
and sharply pointed toes are not to
be ignored. Vanity, however, has
had little to do with the shaping of
the boot. 1t must be made to slide
into the stirrup easily and to slip
out even easier.
Mullins Milking Stunt
Roundup directors are continually
looking for new events, and it seems
as though all the available Stunts"
are exhausted. 1t remained for
Johnny Mullins, arena director of
the Bozeman show, to discover and
put into action the wild COW milking
contest. A black Galloway COW is a
wild proposition at best. Turn her on
the range and she becomes plumb
as Mullins says. Do you
see the possibilities?

It's the sidelights that make the
roundup the most popular form of
summer entertainment in the coun-
try And they are so varied and
quickly changing that one has to
keep the mind working fast to catch
all that goes on. The riding and
roping are interesting, but it is the
action of the contestants and the con-
slant expectation of the unexpected
that intrigues the fancy and keeps
the visitors on the edge of the seats.

FRECKLE-FAC
Sum and Wind Bring Out Ugly Spots;
How to Remove Easily

Here's chance, Miss Freckle-face,
to try remedy for freckles with the
guarantee of a reliable concern that
it will not cost you penny unless it
removes the freckles; while If it does
give you a clear complexion the ex-
pense is trifling.
Simply get an ounce of Othine--
double strength-from any druggist
and few applications should show
you how easy it is to rid yourself of
the homely freckles and get beau
tifu1 complexion. Rarely is more than
one ounce needed for the worst case.
Be sure to ask the druggist for the
double strength Othine as this
strength is sold under guarantee of
money back if it fails to remove
freckles.
