LAKE LUCERNE 
SWITZERLAND 
E VERS of beauty, of travel, of play, will find in 
Switzerland the dream spots around which their im¬ 
aginations have ever circled— 
GENEVA with its classical lake, ever attractive and interesting as 
a resting place and excursion centre, combines beauty, wealth and 
intellect, and is a university town of world renown. CHAMONIX, 
with its Mont Blanc, is reached from MARTIGNY, on the inter¬ 
national Simplon line, by a most picturesque mountain railway. 
Luxurious express trains with observation and dining cars from 
beautiful MONTREUX to Interlaken, with connection to the Al¬ 
pine spa of LENK. 
Then ZERMATT, at the foot of the Matterhorn, exquisite as a 
high Alpine health resort, conveniently reached via the wonderful 
Loetschberg railway. LUCERNE, the “Mecca” of all tourists; its 
loveliness proverbial, its variety of sports and amusements most 
interesting. The starting point for excursions in Central Switzer¬ 
land. LUGANO, in the Swiss-Italian lake district, a paradise of 
flowers basking in perennial sunshine, an unforgettable trip via the 
electrified St. Gothard line, famed for its scenic grandeur. 
THE GRISONS with its 150 valleys, and the famous Engadine, is 
an Alpine wonderland. Its unique climate with powerful solar radia¬ 
tion, its excellent cures and opportunities for all sports have made 
its St. Moritz, Davos, Arosa, Pontrcsina, and Films most appealing

Engadine, offers a marvelous Alpine climate, while the variety and 
medicinal values of its waters are not approached by any European 
watering place. Also intellectual ZURICH, the country’s metrop¬ 
olis; and, nearby, with its wonderful setting of parks and wood¬
