Some kind of splint, brace or ap-
paratus is often Of great value in
the earlier months Of infantile par

loses power; but If placed at rest that
muscle will regain it's power.
AT the very onset of infantile par

unable 70 sleep for the noise. Detec-
tive Arthur said they could hear the
noise almost as soon as they got
within a block OF the house. Two
IA bies OF whist were going when
they arrived, he testified, and the
rest OF the nine men and nine
women we're engaged in dancing to
victrola which was playing or laugh
ing and talking. All is were IN the
three small rooms of the servants
quarters. he said.
During the testimony It was
brought out that one of the negroes
was a deacon In the church and that
most of the rest were church mem

Judge Dunn eaid the fact that they
we're churchgoers and even working
