¶1 The matters involved in this case concern the review of an award made by the State Industrial Commission. The Globe Indemnity Company and H. E. Hanna, the petitioners, and Earl Christian, the respondent, each complain of the award in some particulars.

¶2 The record is very voluminous and the briefs are long, this being the second time the case was here. We have examined the entire record and the various citations of authority. The employer and insurance carrier brought an original proceeding to review the award of the Industrial Commission, and complain of the indefiniteness of the medical award, as well as of allowance for temporary total disability. The decision of these questions depended on the findings on questions of fact in accordance with the discretion of the Commission, and the award is found to be supported by competent evidence and is affirmed.
