Opinion op the Court by
Judge Clay
Affirming on appeal and reversing on cross-appeal.
Mayme Jones was granted a divorce from her husband, Elmer Jones, and allowed alimony at the rate of $40 a month. He appeals from the allowance of alimony, while she prosecutes a cross-appeal from so much of the judgment as allowed her attorneys a fee of only $50.
While, in view of section 950-1, Kentucky Statutes, we are without power to reverse the decree of divorce, we may review the decree to determine whether alimony was properly awarded. Campbell v. Campbell, 233 Ky. 423, 25 S. W. (2d) 1013.
