SATURDAY EVENING ON LAKE LUCERNE
Long before it was dark the Overall Boys were walking up and down the beautiful shore front, waiting for the first sky rocket. Hundreds of other people were waiting and watching, too. A band was playing and everybody was happy.
"Listen! The band is playing America!" cried Joe. "Three cheers for the red, white, and blue!"
"Wait a minute, Joe," said Jack. "Father says that is one of the national hymns of Switzerland. The music is the same as for our national hymn, America, but the words are different."
"It is fine, anyway, and I feel like shouting.—Three cheers for Switzerland!" said Joe.
