    By the second proposition, the defendant contends that plaintiff's suit to mature the board's award is not permissible under the law, since the board did not award compensation for any definite amount or period of time, or for total or permanent disability, etc., as evidenced by the award. This contention is overruled on the authority of Vestal v. Texas Emp. Ins. Ass'n (Tex.Com.App.) 285 S.W. 1041, 1044; Texas Employers' Ins. Ass'n v. Ezell (Tex.Com.App.) 14 S.W.2d 1018; Dixon v. U.S. F. G. Co. (Tex.Civ.App.) 293 S.W. 291; Minor v. London G. A. Co. (Tex.Com.App.) 280 S.W. 163; Franco v. Texas Employers' Ins. Ass'n (Tex.Civ.App.) 29 S.W.2d 902, 905; article 8307, ยง 5a, R.S. 1925. Plaintiff's suit was but the pursuit of an effective statutory method of forcing compliance by the insurance company with the order of the Industrial Accident Board.
