A crippled French soldier wearing the Croix de Guerre and the Medaille Militaire won by his heroism at the Somme helps to care for the children at Grand Val. This is a large estate near Paris where refugee children who are delicate and need a country life are sent from St. Sulpice in Paris where they are received on being driven from their homes. The American Red Cross sends doctors and nurses to take care of these children whose improvement in healthy surroundings is remarkable
