Bloodworth, J.
1.,There is no merit in the grounds of the motion for a new trial which complain of the admission of testimony that the general reputation of the defendant’s house for lewdness was bad. “Reputation of a house being kept and maintained as a lewd house is admissible evidence.” Hogan v. State, 76 Ga. 82 (3); Brindle v. Copeland, 145 Ga. 398 (2) (89 S. E. 332); Jones v. State, 2 Ga. App. 433 (7) (58 S. E. 559); Coleman v. State, 5 Ga. App. 766 (2) (64 S. E. 828).
2. There is sufficient evidence to support the verdict. Heard v. State, 113 Ga. 448, 449 (39 S. E. 118).

Judgment affirmed.
