By his twentieth year, if his development is normal, his power should be increased so that he could easily exert a lifting power of 320, while his maximum power is generally reached in his thirtieth year, and is i 8651b. After that it begins to decline, ! falling off 81b by the time he is 40. I From 40 to 50, the decrease is more rapid, the average lifting power at 50 being 830. only a little greater than at 20.

Newton, the Attorney-Genera], "that any attenmt by a. clergyman or magistrate to perform a marriage ceremony without being actually present with the contracting parties, witness ot witnesses, would not comply with the mandate of I the statutes of New York State."
