By application for rehearing, the appellee Department has called to our attention that inadvertently we assessed the costs of appeal to appellee instead of to the unsuccessful defendant-appellant.

The defendant appellant is reserved the right to apply for further rehearing.

Original decree amended, and application for rehearing denied.
