GALLIC SOLDIER-SCHOLAR TO DEAL WITH RECONSTRUCTION

MEETING IN P. B. H. TONIGHT

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Lieutenant Andre L'Huillier will speak in Peabody Hall of Phillips Brooks House at 8 o'clock tonight. He will take as his subject "Reconstruction Work in France," with especial emphasis on the work being done and already accomplished in the Champagne-Argonne Sector. Captain Morize will introduce the speaker, whose lecture will be illustrated by slides of the Champagne battlefields and of the reconstruction work being done there. All members of the University are extended a cordial invitation to attend this meeting.

Lieutenant L'Huillier, who gave an interesting address before the Cercle Francais two weeks ago, is military attache with the French Embassy at Washington, and he speaks, not only as a soldier of France, but as a graduate of the Universities of Paris and Dijon, speaking to fellow University men.

Decorated Three Times.

In 1914 Andre L'Huillier enlisted as a private in the French Army at the age of 18, and during the first year of the war was wounded twice, at the Argonne and at Champagne. He was then awarded the Croix de Guerre with a star, to which another star and two palms have since been added. During the remainder of the war he received two more wounds, and was awarded the Medaille Militaire and the Legion d'Honneur.
