In the opinion rendered by Judge

the court felt called upon to criticize
Mr.. Newcomers business methods and

tenants. The trustee was severely ar
raigned for what the court termed ne
glect of his duty in looking after re-
pairs on the various Wisner farms. and
said that this neglect without doubt
resulted in loss to the estate. For fail
ure to give fair amount of hisstime to
looking after these properties. and for
failure to secure the most desirable
tenants, the court found much fault.
Mr.. Newcomers methods Of bookkeep-

concerning certain transactions. and
the incompleteness of his records, leav-
ing the benefciaries and the court en-
tirely in the dark on some matters,

Although it is a full decade since the
first successes of the young women,
they are still young enough to come
within the boundary of prodigies and
now that art has added much to those
wonderful talents bestowed by nature
their work ought to be most appealing.
