This is an attempted appeal from a judgment of conviction against defendant, Levi Lucas, rendered in the county court of Muskogee county on the 2d day of July, 1921, wherein defendant was sentenced to imprisonment in the county jail for 30 days and to pay a fine of $50 on a verdict of a jury, finding, him guilty of the offense of unlawful possession of intoxicating liquor.

In this case, counsel relied solely upon the 'giving of oral notice of appeal. This form of notice is insufficient in criminal cases, Burgess v. State, 18 Okla. Cr. 574, 197 Pac. 173.

This court having never acquired jurisdiction of this appeal, the same, for reasons stated, is hereby dismissed.
