Trial by jury. Verdict and judgment in-favor- of appellee for $1,000.\nThe declaration is in the usual form for such cases, and the defendant pleaded the general issue.\nThe evidence tends to prove every material allegation of the declaration, and the case appears to be in every respect a complete and meritorious case.\nCounsel .for appellant claim in their brief and argument that the trial judge made a number of mistakes in his rulings concerning the admission and rejection of evidence and the giving and refusing of instructions. However this may be, we are powerless to review them, for the reason that \u201cno errors are assigned upon the record or attached thereto.\u201d\nAn assignment of errors upon the record in this court performs the same office as a declaration in a court of record of original jurisdiction. It would be as regular and proper for a circuit court to render judgment on a case where there is no declaration, as for this court to reverse a judgment where there is no assignment of error.\n\u201cThe failure to assign errors upon the record is not a mere form that will be considered waived if not objected to, but one of substance.\u201d Jesse French Piano and Organ Company v. Meehan, 77 Ill. App. 577; Conlon v. Manning, 43 Ill. App. 363; Rosin v. Wilde, 80 Ill. App. 58; Nortman v. Samouski, 85 Ill. App. 353; Marsh v. Jones, 106 Ill. App. 577. \u201cIt is not enough to say that in such cases the earlier practice to dismiss the appeal should be followed instead of affirming the judgment. The latest authority is to affirm.\u201d Rosin v. Wilde, 80 Ill. App. 58; Lancaster v. W. &.S. Ry. Co., 132 Ill. 492.\nThe judgment of the Circuit Court is affirmed.\nAffirmed.",
