GEORGE CAMEL GETS
 FREEDOM; DISMISSED

George Camel yesterday was re- leased from jail upon issuance of an order of dismissal of a charge of ag- gravated assault lodged against him by his wife. The case was dismissed by Justice McLane, after receipt of a written request by Mrs. Camel that the charges she had preferred against her husband be withdrawn, and he be freed. Camel had been arrested when he struck his wife, the officers said, after she had refused to go to dance with him Saturday night,

BOICE CALLS IN
 GENTLEMEN FOR
 EARNEST EFFORT
Industry Faces Necessity for Concentrated Effort, Acting President Says in Calling of the Globe Convention
From Mednesday,s nailvl

(From Wednesdays Da1ly)
 With the declaration that the cattle industry is in a straight from which it will take hard work and quick thinking 10 extricate it, Henry C. Boice, acting president of the Ari- zona Cattle Growers association, has issued the call for the annual con vention to be held at Globe. This call was forecast in the Journal Miner a month ago in connection with the meeting here of the Yava- pal Cattle Growers association, to (which body MT. Boice made an ex- tremely important address.
 President Boice's call is as follows:
 The annual convention of the Ari- zona Cattle Growers association will be held at Globe, Ariz., on February g and 24, 1922. All the cattlemen of Arizona are urged to be present and take part ill the meeting.
 This convention is being advertised among the buyers of Arizona cattle, a large number of whom will be present at the meeting and will, in all probability, be in position to contract steers for spring delivery. The cattle men who have cattle for sale for spring delivery will therefore find it >to their great advantage to come to the meeting and talk with these buyers.
 Problems Of tremendous import ance affecting the cattlemen of Ari- zona are to be considered. An i'm mediate reduction in freight rates and taxes is of utmost importance, as well as measures looking toward an increase in the consumption of meat. Steps toward relieving the financial condition Of the livestock interests will be, taken. A new constitution for our association will be consider ed. A committee has been appoint ed by the Arizona Wool Growers association to confer with our mem bers at the convention on a possible consolidation of the two associa- lions. Matters relating to grazing on the national forests will be discussed. The big question of improved condi- lions of marketing our cattle will feature a part of our proceedings, We also have interesting things to discuss on tariff and public domain grazing, on the activities of our as sociation during the past year and on the recent convention of the na- tional association.
 Fred H. Bixby, recently elected president of the American National Live Stock association, will address the convention and take part in the proceedings. Dwight B. Heard, who attended the agricultural conference at Washington, will speak on the ac- ccmplishments of that conference. P c. Salisbury, president of the recent ly formed Arizona Industrial con- gross, will also address the conven- ton, and other speakers of prom thence will be on the program.
 It is to your interest and the in terests of your association that you make every effort to attend this con- vention Your business needs the association, and the association needs you at convention time in formulat- ing its policies and in yielding its fullest influence. No greater benefit can be gained by the cattlemen than through an expenditure of the time and money necessary to attend our convention this year at Globe on February g and "A.

And now just look.
Sir Conan Doyle, the great
British "Authority'' on Spiri-
tism, is now lecturing in these
Eenited States, trying to con-
vince us that all the dead people
are still alive. He publishes a
new book on Spiritism about ev-
cry fifteen minutes and what
he don't know about the "spirit
world" will make several more
volumes yet.
Great is the Hon. Sir Doyle,
creator of DR.. Watson and daddy
Of Sherlock Holmes! Standing
here on the great American
platform, he rolls up the sleeves
Of his noveistic imagination and
just cackles over how nice and
pleasant it is to be dead. You
don't have to tote an old ugly
body of flesh around with you
any more, and wait on it's slow
motions while it eats hog-corpse
and corn pone, drinks white
lightning and chaws terbacker.
No sir! You can just go sailing
around like a radio message, or
., loose piece of moonshine, and
not even have to shave nor take
8 bath. You can slip upon peo-
pie and hear what they are say
ing, and watch all their secret
actions, and they will neve,
know you are there.
Then if you have occasion to
communicate with the living you
can grab a weejy board by the
seat of it's breeches and make
it dance Jim Grow till your pain
gets easy.
My-y-y-o!
That's all very bong-swong.
but then, after telling how
nice and pleasant it lis to be
dead, he winds up with a terri
BILE warning against the sin OF
suicide. People don't die-and
yet they mustn't kill themselves,
That's curious to me. II people
don't die, and can't die, what
does mere suicide amount to /:
1t is only getting rid Of the OLD
hull so they can go sailing on te
the spirit world and learn more
than they ever knew before
Why should Doyle object te
that? Looks to me like he is
sorter inconsistent. If it AIM

The only way to know is to

The English language is a
very good language to cuss with.
The big politicians made
stump speeches two years ago,
and now they are ''stumped."
An exchange says modern
girls do not ''put on" I notice
they don't put on very much.
If we had many worlds like
this one to go through it would
just about plum wear us out.
IF everybody was smart

who in the thunder would they

I am afraid Russia is going to
turn out bad, after all. The

Doctors write their prescrip-
tions in a dead language, and
after the patient takes the stuff
he is soon as dead as the Ian,
guage is.
When the political pot boils
it seems that the scum always
rises to the top. Where's the

Doctors call their victims

Speaking of "blind faith" I'll
say this much: If the people
still have any faith in the old
political parties, it certainly is
of the blind variety.
The days COME right plong
one after another, and we can
sorter manage one at time.
But just suppose a whole week
should come all at once. Wouldn't
it be awful?
When the world really gets
civilized it will have no use for
doctors, lawyers and preachers.
For that matter, we amt got
much use for 'em now, but we
just have to endure 'em.
The birds don't have any
politics nor any government
that we know of, and yet they
live happily together and always
feel like singing. Amt it a pity
that people can't have as much
sense as the birds?
Conan Doyle says marriages
are common in the spirit world
And divorces, too, I guess. When
a spiritual wife hits her spiritu-
al husband over the head with
a spiritual rolling-pin, I'll bet
there's some tall spiritual Gus
sing.
Some Of the Immortal souls
that have passed on to glory
have now begun to write poetry
and send it back here. Oh
fudge! It's bad enough to have
to endure our own poetry, much
less a five-foot shelf Of the

The news about the injured
finger was kept secret. Hoyt
won his second game after a hard
struggle. He was forced to resort
to every bit ofpitching strategy he
possessed His actions plainly
showed the finger was Sving him
much pain.
Before his third start, his in
jured finger was worldwide COS

because tho usually reliable Peck
inpaugh made an error at critical
stage.
Hoyts performance in the world
series, great that it was, was all
the more remarkable when one
considers the conditions under
which he lahored.
In the slang Of the sporting
world, "guts" means courage.
That word was coined for Waite

Those sitting out in front never
know what is going on back of the
scenes.
That is true of the ball field as
well as the. theatre. While the
crowd laughs and applauds. ira
gedy in It's various forms is often
being enacted behind the scenes.
Humor also has its place.
In baseball, the field is the stage,
the. clubhouse is behind the scenes.
Waite Hoyt, star pitcher of the
New York Americans, was the big
figure in such q setting during the
1921 series with the Giants.
After tae second game of the
series, in which Hoyt had held the
Giants in the hollow of his hand,
I dropped around to the Yankees
clubhouse to see how tae team felt
after twice defeating the Giants,
each time over the shutout route.
I had another reason for SO
doing. During the last few innings
Of the game I noticed that Hoyt
used curve ball almost entirely.
1t surprised me, because this
fast ball which he had been using
was practically unhitable. He
had used tho curve more as a
throat.
noticed that he occasionally
would glance at the second finger
OF his pitching hand and shake
his head.
When dropped into the club
house I found Hoyt the center Of
crowd of all the Yankees. The
usual noise that goes with a world
series victory was lacking.
! felt sure something was
wrong, ] edged into the crowd
and found Trainer Wood OF the
Yankees examining the second
finger on Hoyt's pitching hand.
There was a big blood blister on
the end OF the finger which extend
ed well under the nail.
It didn't seem possible that a
pitcher could work with such a
finger on the throwing hand. The
silence that pervaded the dressing
room made It evident that all the
Yankees entertained such an opln-
ion.
After the finger had received
medical attention, got Hoyt off to
the side and asked him what he
thought of his chances to start
another game.

said. ut prevents me from get

take the view that the English

ably owing to the fact that rep

approved often in the films. In
