His own twin six. "Twin Six" is the name this crippled French soldier has given to his wheel chair which came to him as a present of the American Red Cross. The war cripples of France are far from disconsolate. To watch hundreds of them every afternoon taking their exercise in the Tuileries gardens one would think they had not a care in the world. This young hero is only one of the hundreds of war cripples who have been helped to an enjoyment of life by the American relief workers in France
