There is a man in San Fn-.ncisco walking around with a broken nee... He is Lieutenant Charle* M. Cummins, of Viiginia. Cummins was an army aviator. While making a flight at Gerstnei Field, La., in February, 1S18, he fall 2,500 feet, fracturing the fourth, fifth, &u ' sixth cerrical vertebrae and dlsloca.ing several other vertebrae partially.

It worked? and now Lieutenant Cummins is walking about apparently normal. One of Many. Lieutenant Cummin's case is only one of many, bat it stands out because of the popular superstition that a man can't live if his neck is broken. The reconstruction surgeons at Letterman are working on hundreds. of cases much more diffictilt than the flyer'i. They are receiving men there daily from the battlefields of France, whose legs and arms bang withered and helpless and thdy are turning these men out, after months of treatment and patient mechanical manipulation, able to use their arms and legs and capable of mating a living. The cost, r?f course, is tremendous when one takes into consideration the fact that the same work is being carried on in nany military hospitals. Mora Money Needed. Already Congress has appropriated pillions of dollars to carry on the aork and many millions more will lave to be made available for tbe ;ause.

Part of th^ money to be realized rom the Victory Liberty Loan will be ;s3d for this job of reconstruction or -egeneration. Think of this when you ire making up youv mind as to bow nuch of the loan you, personally, are :oing to subscribe.
