Opinion of the Court

*19 MR. JUSTICE MATTHEWS

delivered the opinion of the court.

This is an appeal from a judgment in favor of plaintiff, submitted on the record in cause numbered 6,150, Kester v. Amon, ante, p. 1, 261 Pac. 288.

On the authority of Kester v. Amon, above, the judgment is affirmed.

Mr. Chief Justice Callaway and Mr. Justice Stark concur.
