Swallowed a ToOthpiCk
And Reclaimed His Voice

The accidental swallowing of a
piece of toothpick was a blessing in
disguise to Donald Cuttings, of Sioux
City, for the coughing and trang-
ling that followed the accident re-
suited in the return of his voice.
Cuttings was member of the A.
E. F., and lost his voice after being
gassed at St. Mihiel.

PARIS, May 19-(COrrespOndence

erected in 33 hours a building NE $1,000

Engineers, of the 26th (Yankee) Divi-
sion, American Expeditionary Force,
may well be proud
The "YOrk Harbor Y. D." hut of the
Yankee Division, opened by the Young
Mems Christian Association at Le
Mans, owes its inception to Miss
Grace Thompson, of New York, who
raised Il fund for the purpose in York
Harbor, Maine. Owing to the early re-
turn of the 26th New England divi-
sion to the states, the original plan
was modified to the extent of allowing
the New England boys to erect hut
by their own labor.
Time was pressing, but that was
detail which only put the eager bene-
ficiaries of the scheme on their met
tie. Foundations had to be leveled,
French municipal authorities had to
be dealt with for the site and for the
location of sewer, water and electrical
connections; one Car of material car
rying the floor joists went astray and
other timbers had to be cut at a local
mill. Notwithstanding all these diffi.
culties, the hut which is the largest
one used by the A. Il. f., was erected,
New England stone fireplace and lat
tice doorways all complete. in space
OF time that made the good people of
lie Mans rub their eyes in amazement.
Suitably decorated for the dedica-
tion ceremony, the big hut was turn
ed over by the 2Gth whose command
ing officer, Major General Harry C.
Hale, acknowledged its acceptance on
behalf of the Division.
After the war. the hut will be
handed over to the ptople of the city
of lie Mans, "as token of cordial
friendship" as said Major General
