AN EGYPTIAN PRINCE
 ATTENDING THE NORMAL

There's real Egyptian prince at- tending the summer session of the State University at the Normal school. He is Abdel Hamid Galal Mehrez. He has been in the United States for about three months. His family are in France, and he plans going back there next summer, during vacation, returning to the university at Tucson in the fall to complete his course.
 The prince not only wants to add to his book education in America but also to imbibe some of our spirit of dem- ocracy. Arizona sure is a good place for the latter.

SMALL FIRE AT THE
 A. l.. & T. LOG CAMP

Fire, supposedly caused by sparks from the loader, caught in six car loads flogs at the A. L. & T. log ging camp near Dry Lake, at noon Tuesday, while the six men on the job were at lunch. The woodwork of the cars and the logs were burned, but the expense of putting the cars back in shape will be slight. The fire began to spread, but was soon brought under control by forest service men and the logging crew, covering only about seven acres of cutoff land.
