K. btdepmde11ce Day Not the Fourth of July but the First n f August. Independence Day for the Swiss. It happened that 'we were in Lucerne on that day so memorable to the Swiss, marking as it does the achieving of their independence. So far as we could see it was not a holiday; in fact, if we had not been told we never would have suspected that anything mmsual was transpiring. To be sure, we encountered everywhere on the streets girls selling badges labelled "August 1." But all th t stores were open. ln the evening, however, we went '.\' 11 to the railroad station before hich we had been told a chorus of men would sing several numbers. We arrived just as they had launched upon their program. And they sang with great sincerity as well as with artistic feeling . Their last number was their national hymn the music of which, we were surprised to find, was our own "America." So ended Independence Day in Switzerland. It added to our appreciation of the value of freedom. BIG JUNIOR FAIR ALL WEEK All Scla-t ClaildND Cool& Co. A.lmitted FREE - n...a,., Au1.
