DEMPSEY'S SHOWING
PITIFUL IN WORLD
CHAMPIONSHIP BOUT

Ringside, Sesqui-C Centennial Stadi-
UNI Philadelphia, Sept. 24.-Gene Tun-
ney, the fighting marine, is the new
heavyweight champion of the world.
He dethroned Jack Dempsey, king for
the last seven years, tonight, by
smashing his way to decisive victory
in 10-round match that went the
limit and furnished one of the greatest
upsets in boxing history.
Dempsey only a shell of his old
fighting self, was outboxed and out
fought from start to finish, groggy
and bleeding in one-sided battle that
was decided in driving rain before a
record crowd of 10000 spectators.
This great throng, forming a spec
tacle unprecedented in sports annals,
paid close to 100000 to witness a
match that fell from the sensational
heights expected of it,
Stunned at first by the amazing
slowness, the lethargy and lack of old
fighting fire in the champions attack,
the dripping throng cheered on the
challenger as he steadily hammered
and battered his way to triumph, pill
ing up points that gave him an over
whelming margin and earned him the
unanimous decision Of the judges.
Tunney, reaching the pinnacles of a
fighting career that started when he
was buck private in the ranks of the
marines, fought a masterful battle,
out-generaling Dempsey at nearly
every turn as well as out-punching the
champion. The battling product of
the sidewalks of New York's Green-
witch village, at the age of %, fairly
won his right to the purple robes of
pugilism.
But the handsome rugged challenger
dethroned man who came to the end
of the championship trail with few
weapons and less stamina to defend
his place at the top.

L egiOnnaires Will
Elect New Corps of
$
Officers in June


R. S. Coleman was elected Com
mander of the local post of the Ameri-
can Legion at a regular meeting Mon
day night. R. M. Porter is the retir-
ing Commander. William Layton was
elected First Vice Commander; J. T.
Newell, Second Vice Commander; Har-
ry Gearhart, Adjutant; Harry Fugua,
Historian; Rev. David Doull, Chap
lain; Steve Glotch, Sargeant-At-Arms;
and Carl J. Pelo, Finance Officer.
The next corps of officers will be
elected in June in order to give them
the privilege of attending the Ameri-
can Legion State convention, to be
held sometime in July. The election
of officers on June 1 makes the terms
of the local officers practically the
same as those of the state officers.
Heretofore, with elections in the fall,
officers of Carbon Post have been
under the command of two state COM
manders in one year.
One of the important issues before
the members was the adoption of
new Constitution and Bylaws.
After some discussion it was decid-
ed that Legion mebers would endeavor
to urge registered voters to appear at
the polls next election day, particu-
larly those that will be allowed to vote
in November for the first time. They
hope to reach many through news
paper publicity.
Following the business meeting re-
freshments were served by the social
committee composed of 0. ]. Salo,
Cecil Gregory and William Layton.

ROCKY MT. STATES
LEAGUE ENDORSED
BY MINING MEN

Denver, Sept. 24.-Enthusiastic and
unqualified Endorsement of the League
of Rocky Mountain States as inaug-
urated by F. G. Bonfils and The Den
yer Post was voted Thursday in a
resolution passed by the American
Mining congress and its allied bodies,
the American Institute of Mining and
Metallurgical Engineers, the American
Association of Petroleum Biologists
and the American Silver Producers
association, in session at the Cosmo-
politan hotel.
Without going into detail on the
subject the resolution was brief, point
ed and emphatic and met with the
hearty applause of the 800 mining
men assembled when the report of the
resolutions committee was read. In
fact, the League of Rocky Mountain
States as outlined in many articles
published in The Denver Post has been
the one live topic of conversation
among the convention visitors in Den
yer, and the individual expressions to
The Denver Post have been general
and numerous.
Indeed, I have never witnessed
such demonstration of approval on
any topic as have seen and heard this
week on the proposed League of Rocky
Mountain States" said M. B. Tomb
lin secretary of the western division of
the American Mining association and
the Colorado Mining association and
the Colorado Metal Mining fund. Mr..
Tomblin has necessarily been in close
touch with every delegate and with
every gathering of the convention than
any other man and is personally ae-
quainted with every mining visitor
who has appeared at the sessions.
Il have heard scores of discussions
of this topic" he added, "and without
exception the proposal of Mr.. Bonfils
has been received with unqualified ap-
proval. There seems to be a wide
spread feeling that this League Of
Rocky Mountain States is the very
thing that is needed to work out
many problems for the common benefit
of all the states in this great inter
mountain territory"
U. S. Officials Join in Endorsement
Even bureaucratic Washington
which is heavily represented at the
Denver convention, seems to be in
favor of united action on all matters
comomon to the intermountain states
and no opposition to the resolution
was offered by any of the delegates OF
bureau men from the national capital
Several officials of the government
on the contrary, expressed their APP
proval and declared that with uniteC
action on the part of public lands
states there will be greater assurance
of securing reforms in the administra.
ton of public lands than could be the
case in the absence ola united front

fadden display, terrible picture but
wonderful display. / am sure the
window is much better than the pic
ture as my customers have made very
favorable comment on it.
The Retailer certainly offers me lots
Of good suggestions and | take advan-

Splendid Financial
Record Made by Con-
gregational Church

The annual meeting of the Congre-
gational Church, held after splendid
dinner prepared by the Ladies Aid,
last Friday night disclosed that the
church, despite the fact Of having no
pastor for a period Of ten months,
had nevertheless had a successful
year.
Church and Sunday school atten-
dance had been good. Various import
ant Improvements had been made to
the church property. Due to the en-
thusiastic and commendable work of
the Ladies Aid, under the able leader
ship of Mrs. G. G. Rowan, the church
building had been renovated, electric
fittings remodelled, carpets purchased
and an exceptionally good set of
hymn books procured. During this
period the Aid had raised nearly a
thousand dollars and had finished the
year with substantial balance on
hand.
The business meeting was inter
spersed with pleasing musical selec-
tions contributed by Mrs. G. C. Row.
an, Mrs. R. A. Nutting, Mrs. Fidelia
Morrow, Miss Kathryn Westervelt and
Miss Marcella Littlefeld.
A vote of thanks was accorded the
Ladies Aid and the various officials,
particularly Mrs. R. A. Nutting, must
cal director and Mrs. E. M. Adams,
organist.
Mrs. Halpin was elected clerk for
the ensuing year; Mrs. G. P. Keyes,
treasurer; Mrs. James Leslie, presi-
dent finance committee; Mrs. Hal
Cartwright, director of religious edu-
cation Mrs. John 7. Hays was reap
pointed church school superintendent

comes glorifed in the eyes of her en-
tranced husband and far outglitters
the Queen Of Sheba.
Listen, son, when bread is perfectly
baked, the coffee strong and hot, the
steak juicy and fragrant, the hash well
built and appetizing, and the batter
cakes light and smoking as the butter
is absorbed, the spirit of Happiness
descends upon the home like dove.
That may sound old fashioned and
out of date but let me say that with
such wife the caverns of the lucky
mans soul continue to echo with,
GLORY Hallelujah" for the divinity he
has won and the children rise up and
call her blessed three times day and

Fry it in Butter

Some years ago two women were
attending a concert being given by the
Boston Symphony orchestra. They
were engaged in conversation during
the evenings entertainment and with
the rise and fall of the melody they
raised or lowered their voices so that
they could make one another heard
without disturbing the proceedings
Finally the orchestra closed one of it's
selections suddenly and one of them
was heard to yell, cry it in butter"
During Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday of last week cooking school
was conducted in this city by Miss
Jeanette Boyer, a specialist in the
culinary art. The school was well
attended as it should have been and,
no doubt, much real good will result.
Good cookery is an art and a good
cook is an artist Yes, she is even
more than that. She's jewel.
l do not wish to invade the province
of Laura Jean Libby and Beatrice
Fairfax but let me urge young men
who contemplate matrimony to have a
care.
Beauty is all right in its way but
it isn't everything when it comes to
domestic happiness. 1t is well to pick
someone to fall in love with who
knows how to properly "fry it in but
ter. A girl with dimple and a
thousand freckles is a cinch if she
possesses sweet disposition and a
knowledge of domestic science and the
art of cookery. AS homely as she may

A Wise Selection

A wise selection was made when the
committee in charge chose Billings for
the site of the new State Normal
School. 1t is centrally located, has
splendid railroad facilities is a good
town peopled by good people and ere
long it is destined to be the largest
city in Montana.
Another such school will be needed
within a few years and such an insti-
tuition can be located in some city
farther north or east that may offer
the proper site. 1t is notable that
among the progressive and important
western states, Montana is the only
one that has but one such school.
Even Arizona and New Mexico have
two each while South Dakota has four.
Billings is located far enough away
from us so as not to be entirely over
Swallowed by Red Lodges growing
Importance and / think we should now
let up on the movement to take 1T
within our corporate limits. And yet,
it is happily located close enough to
us for the students of the new school
to come up and spend their week ends
with us, get breath of pure fresh
air and a swig or two of 99.6 proof
water, marvel at the matchless scenic
wonders of the Beartooths visit the
mines, see the pea factory in opera
ton, observe our progressive honey
bees at work, take in the zoo up in the
third ward, enjoy real steam bath
and bask in the glorious sunlight at
an altitude SO near to Heaven that
they can almost reach up and tickle
the feet of the angels.
So, here's congratulations to Bill
lings on getting enough head marks to
win the prize she has won.
