| Abstract |
Buben der 8. Volksschulklasse bauen aus Stroh, Buchs und Sade eine überlebensgroße Figur, die sie am Sonntag Lätare durchs Dorf führen. Sie schwingen lange, bebänderte Stangen und sagen vor den Häusern einen langen Heischespruch auf. Sie erhalten Eier und Geld. Am Nachmittag wird die Figur auf einer Anhöhe verbrannt. Abends finden sich die Buben mit den Mädchen des gleichen Jahrgangs zu einem Eieressen und anschließendem Tanz zusammen. =e The fourteen-year-old boys make a ten feet high figure from straw, box, and sabine. On Laetare Sunday this puppet is being guided through the village. The boys swing long ribboned poles and say a gift asking rhyme in front of all houses. They receive eggs and money from the inhabitants. In the afternoon the figure is being burnt on a hill. In the evening the boys meet the girls of the same age for eating the collected eggs and for a dance.
