Excerpt from Social Ethics and Society Duties: Thorough Education of Girls for Wives and Mothers and for Professions
Of late years there have been many fiings and sneers in our newspapers and journals against foreign etiquette, for eign customs, foreign manners, and even against foreigners themselves. To say that a man is a foreigner carries with it an intimation, to the minds of many, that he is not so good a member of society as he would be if he were a native born American and yet as a nation we can look back to the time when we were all foreigners. The earliest settlers in New England and Virginia were exclusively English, and in both of these sections of our country there were intermar riages with the natives of America. We have families who still boast descent from Indian princesses, though not all the members of these families feel much pride in such descent.
