This adventurous tale centers around three friends—Ned, Bob, and Jerry—who are drawn into the fervor of patriotism following the United States' entry into the war against Germany. Their journey begins at a local meeting to support the president, and quickly escalates into a series of thrilling events, including a runaway fire engine and a pro-German protest that the boys set out to disrupt.  At the start of the story, the trio attends a patriotic meeting in their hometown of Cresville, where they are excited about the recent declaration of war. As they leave to investigate a fire alarm, they inadvertently become heroes by helping to stop a runaway fire engine.
