the Pressmen's union at Fargo, Mr..
Boyd was active in support Of sew
eral bills advantageous to organized
labor. He was also a strong advocate
of legislation backed by the North Da-
kota department of the Legion.
Among the results of his work are !:
the passage of bills making Armistice
day a legal holiday, protecting the
Legion emblem and increasing tax for
bonus fund from three-fourths to one
mill on taxable property. He also led
the fight which resulted in the pass
age of a resolution urging congress
TO pass the Fordney five-fold compen-
sation bill, a measure backed by the
Legion.

Although Mrs. Walker cannot quail
fy for membership in the Legion or in
its Women's Auxiliary, she has been
a tireless worker for the cause which
brought the organizations into exist
ence, and for which they now stand.
During the World war she was state
director Of wOmen's work in the Bel
glan relief fund and also served as
food administrator for her county. The
Mother of the Bonus" also assists
her husband In the publication Of
weekly newspaper and is a former
president Of the Kansas Federation
OF WOmen's Clubs.
The advent Of Mrs. Walker to the
legislature resulted In the coming Of
q new word. At loss to distinguish
between male and female members,
the recent session decided to refer to
women lawmakers or "legisladies."

no ashes to take out, no fuel wasted.
Over three million housekeepers are
already using the New Perfection Oil
Cook Stove. You can control your fire
so much more easily and accurately
than with the old range.
The New Perfection Water Heater is
another modern convenience for
housekeepers Supplies ample hot
water for all household needs at trif-
ling cost Strong and durable will
last many years.
The cook stoves are made in two,
three and four-burner sizes, with or
without warming cabinet; also in one
burner size with no cabinet. Ask your
dealer to show you how simple they
are to operate and take care of. Sold
by leading hardware, department and
general stores everywhere.

Roast CHICKEN nicely and
evenly Drowned all over

THAT'S the way New Perfec-
/ ton Oil Cook Stove does it with
the New Perfection oven. And to-
gether they bake pies, cakes and
cookies the same way evenly.
Then too, it's SO easy to get up
roasting or baking heat with
New Perfection, quickly. Turn
the wick Up full until the flame
has white tips-they furnish the
most heat. And the long blue
chimney drives it into the oven
you don't make the whole kitchen
unbearably hot.
It's no bother to cook with a New Per-
lection. No wood or coal to bring in,
no coal dust or litter to sweep up,
