Taste for Movies Is
 Gaining Favor in Japan

TOXIC. Japan. Jan 29.-The taste of the general public in Japan for moving pictures is increasing every year. From 60 to 80 new pictures are inspected every day by the metro politan police. According to the police authorities. the number of pie lures permitted for use last year reached l1S7T. showing an increase of about double that of the pre- ceding year.
 Since January. 1922, 1000 pictures have been imported to Japan from the United States and about 200 each from Italy. Germany and France respectively. The number Of moving pictures imported from England and other countries Is very small.

After expressing an opinion that
none of the funds of the Boston
Montana Corporation have been mis-
appropriated, stockholders controll-
ing over a million shares, at an in
formal meeting in the City Club
adopted resolutions of confidence in
Governor Allen and other officers of
the corporation under Indictment in
Boston, says the Boston Daily Post.
The indictments of the officers
were 'the result of unfair attacks
made upon the company and its Of
ficers, and public excitement aroused
by the failure of numerous financial
and brokerage houses which had
traded in the securities of this COM
pany," was the opinion expressed by
the stockholders present.
DR.. George J. OFT of 407 Marlboro
street was chairman of the meeting.
A committee was appointed to place
the resolution of confidence in the
accused officers before the other
stockholders who were not present.

Drawn by the lure of big prize
money and the love of the game, a
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 a variety
of the type. easy come, easy co.
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 O second prize. With the car
fare home safely sailed away they
start out to elbow" the town.
Ten-GaiIon Hats
The clothes of the roundup tribe
make the big show a 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 ap-
pear to be immaterial objects and
are used mainly to cover nakedness
and TO luck III Lu6 ups VI lump
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 n
put into action the wild cew milking
contest. A black Galloway COW is a
wild proposition at best. Turn her on
the range and she becomes PLUMP
ornery," as Mullins says. Do you
see the possibilities?

BERKlN is DEAN
STATE PIONEERS
OBSERVED his NINETY-SEVENTH
BIRTHDAY IN BUTTE A
FEW DAYS AGO

ONTANA'S Oldest trail blazer,
MI William Berkin, was recently
49, 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
old-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 Mr.. 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 watchful 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 q
typical mining camp with gold in
abundance to lend a spirit of ex-
element.
When the first bull train rumbled

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.

out of Fort Benton it was also under
the guidance of Mr.. Berkin, who DIR
ected the building of a road as the
prairie schooner advanced. John ).
Rowe &c Co. of st. Louis furnished
the bull team outfit and Nicholas
Wall of St. Louis was Mr.. Berklns
partner in the freighting venture.
Mr.. Berkin continued at various
occupations in the new territory IN
til 1866, when he accepted a 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 we'll, but neve 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.

into the arena. Each mixer has a
roper, and these men start out at the
signal to select a likely looking COW.
None of the herd has ever been
MIXED before. The first man to de-
liver a half of a pint bottle of milk
to the judges wins the contest. 1t
was a clever judge who stuck his
finger in a bottle day and dis
covered that the milk was cold. An
investigation showed that the mixer
had arranged a hot-water bottle and
tube to use in filling the bottle.
Last year at Madison Square Gar
den a dozen contestants, most of
them bandaged and nursing injuries,
were arrested for cruelty to animals.
Not a single horse or COW had been
injured at the show, but the men
were arraigned on an inhuman
charge. With the adjustment of
steer roping, no one may charge the
roundup with cruelty to the animals
used. The horses run on the range
all year, are fat and wild, and any
rider will swear that the horse he
was just on got a supreme pleasure
in throwing him.
Steers for BuIIdogging
A large herd of Brahma steers, a
cross between the sacred COW of
India and the Texas longhorn, are
chasing gophers about the range and
getting in shape for a strenuous
three days of b%ulldogging. The
Brahmas are lighter than the Texas
steers, but r quicker and provide
better sport for b~ulldogging. More
than fifty head of Texas steers will
be used in the steer riding contests
this year.
Bad actors of the bueking horse
clan are always in demand for the
%roundups, and the Ringing interests
have got a corner on the worst ones
in the country. Moonshine, the gray
gelding that has never been ridden
contest STYLE" Gray Ghost, Two
Step, Sky Rocket, Barrel Head and
a dozen other outlaws full of sin and
original bucking tricks are grazing
peacefully inside the 1000 acre pas
ture at White Sulphur Springs.
Letters are coming in from the
best riders in the country, and they
all plan to be in Bozeman August 2,

Byers, Howard Tegland, the Coates

individuals will be ready for action

FIR ECkLE-FACE
Sun and Wind Bring Out Ugly Spots;
How to Remove Easily

Here's a chance, Miss Freckle-face,
to try a remedy for freckles with the
guarantee of a reliable concern that
1t will not cost you a 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 a few applications should show
you how easy it is to rid yourself of
the homely freckles and get a beau
tiful 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.

It's the s%idelights that make the
roundup the most popular form of
summer entertainment in the coun-
try. And they are so varied and
quickly changing that me 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.
