MATTHIAS, J.

The sole question presented on this appeal is whether claimant sustained an injury within the contemplation of the Workmen's Compensation Act.

The question as to the meaning of the term, "injury," has been before this court many times, and it has been consistently held that to be compensable an injury must be accidental in origin and result.
