"I am ready for them if they come," came from Max. "I got this," and he held up a long, white sack. "What is it?" asked Sam. "Plaster of Paris. If they tackle me I'll make 'em look like marble statues already." And the German-American youth winked one eye suggestively. Despite the excitement the Rover boys slept soundly for the rest of the night.
I never knew the rights of the case between her and Francis, but at one of the German embassies abroad I think in Vienna she met the young Count Rachwitz, head of one of the great Silesian noble houses, and married him. It was not on the usual rock money that this German-American marriage was wrecked, for the Count was very wealthy himself.
How is an intelligent German-American, whose cultural tradition has been thoroughly Teutonic, to make himself at home in a literature whose general character, like its language, is English, without some defining of the Anglo-American tradition? Lincoln must be defined for him; Milton must be defined for him; most of all perhaps Franklin must be defined for him.
Let us analyze Senator Harding's plan of making a German-American peace, and then calling for a 'new relationship among nations, assuming for the purpose of argument only, that the perfidious hand that dealt with Germany would possess the power or influence to draw twenty-nine nations away from a plan already at work, and induce them to retrace every step and make a new beginning.

Bryan to discuss the German-American conflict with him; both gentlemen wished to find some solution to the dispute and hoped that the Ambassadors not directly concerned in it might profitably try to mediate. It was said later and probably with truth, that there was a mutual misunderstanding on this subject; but whatever be the truth of that, Dr.
I explained that the Russian cloak-manufacturer operated on a basis of much lower profits and figured down expenses to a point never dreamed of before; that the German-American cloak-manufacturer was primarily a merchant, not a tailor; that he was compelled to leave things to his designer and a foreman, whereas his Russian competitor was a tailor or cloak-operator himself, and was, therefore, able to economize in ways that never occurred to the heads of the old houses.
It was Mehronay who took a galley of pi which the office devil had set up from a wrecked form, and interspersed up and down the column of meaningless letters "Great applause" "Tremendous cheering" Cries of "Good, good! that's the way to hit 'em!" "Hurrah for Hancock" and ran it in the paper as a report of Carl Schurz's speech to the German-American League at the court-house.
