I At Brienz we left the train and
rode on Lake Brienz 90 Interlaken
I lnterlaken Is the center point for
many Alpine Excursions and has a
great many fine hotels. From tins
town we obtained a view Of the
beautiful snow-capped Jungfrau,
for this view especially, we had gone
as far south as Interlaken.

j that Of .,t.I
had found our room and disposed
Of our baggage, We started out to see
as much OF the town as possible yet
that evening, for we were to leave vi
seven the next morning
| After seeing something OF the
town we went to the Bern Cathedral

windows and a beautiful Nhite

little sightseeing but got 50 wet that
we gave up in despair and came
home. We had with difficulty
seen the Cathedral, a very ancient

We also rode in the street car over
the new bridge over the Rhine river
This bridge now stands where the
old bridge stood which had a chapel
on it in which the sentence of death
was formerly pronounced, especially
on witches who were then thrown in
the Rhine Where we were staving
at Basel there were SIX American la
dies that evening at the supper table

with us TO Karlsruhe and stayed sew

Paris for the winter.
The next morning, Thursday, we
