at the same time to develop the work of

In less than two years there has been
magnificent growth which gives promise of
the success of the campaign. Some coun-

scored gains in the number of societies
ranging from 30 to 100 per cent and even
higher. Since the campaign began there
have been added to the list more than $500

Edward Money, jr., demurred to by the

sustained the plea of abatement in every
particular. He stated that the grand jury
which was sworn in on the first day of
the court was not a legally constituted
jury, as one of the Jurors was not able to
read and write as required by law; and,
therefore, the indictment was not legal.
He also declared that the law recently
passed by the legislature, taking from
the sheriff the selection of the names
from which to draw the jury and placing
the duty in the hands of two jury COM
