Excerpt from The Fourth of July: Two Speeches Made by Invitation at the Picnics of the "Usoa" Society of the American Colony of Berlin; Grünau, 1902 and 1903

But if an educated American announces at a public dinner that we owe to Germany about all we have, how can we complain that the Germans, who really owe so much to us, believe it, and twit us about it?

Excerpt from The Fourth of July: Two Speeches Made by Invitation at the Picnics of the "Usoa" Society of the American Colony of Berlin; Grünau, 1902 and 1903

The occasion of each of the dinner-talks here reproduced was a delightful Independence Day excursion given by the "Usoa" Society, composed of members of the American colony in Berlin. In each case a special steamboat took the company to Grünau, a charming riverside resort. An informal lunch in groups was followed by a base-ball game, sack, egg and three-legged races, and other competitions, announced by a program that Barnum and Buffalo Bill combined could not have outdone. Then followed dinner in the grove, with speeches. On the first occasion then were 260 feasters; on the second, 400; Consul General Mason presiding and Rev. Dr. Dickey saying grace.
