spectacular part, therefore, in the
world conflict, but she lie. rned the
service of sacrifice. There were times
when the ranch was running smoothly
enough and she spent the hours max

ting soX and sweaters.
When the mothers, sisters and
wives of ex-service men organized a
wOmen's auxiliary to the American
Legion in her city, Mrs. Fenlon was
chosen president. The organization
furnished clubrooms for their boys at
an expense of $1,000 during her first
administration. Mrs. Fenlon recently
was elected first vice president of the
Women's auxiliary Of North Dakota.

NATIONS DUTY TO Give
BONUS TO WAR VETERANS
The True Facts Concerning Senator Orlando Harrison And
The Bonus Bill-If Bill Had Passed Maryland Legis-
lature Ii Would Have Been Unconstitutional

Everybody loves the American Sol
diers. They safeguarded the nation:
they preserved civilization Among
the men interested in the welfare of
the War Veterans is Senator Orlando
Harrison. They defended the coun-
thy. Mr.. Harrison is constructive
man-such as is needed for times like
these. His attitude on the State Be-
rus Bill was frank and honest. Sol
dlers and their families and friends
will see that in reading the following
five points.
/. 1t is not the business of the
State of Maryland to pension the
veterans of the Great War. That is
the Nations duty. Maryland did n It
call them from their homes, and send
them against the Huns. The Nation
cd that. Therefore. 1t is strictly the
obligation of the Nation to give the
bonus. A bonus bill passed in New
York State. however, the Court of
appeals found the act unconstitution-
al, because a state-whcther New
York or NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. no an

land bill he would have unloaded a

2. Senator Harrison is level
headed business man. He is not
afflicted with the foam and flourish to
charm the galleries. His position on
the bonus question is in harmony with
the leading business men of the coun-
try and the majority of the newspap-
ers. Senator Borah regarded the
bonus as unjust to the soldiers, the
tax payer, and discreditable to the
