German Day is the greatest occasion which
comes 70 the German American citizen OF
Richmond. The Association was formed last
year. and II is commemorative IF the first set
Element Of Germans in America, and the pa
geantry of the Association last year illustra-
tive Of the arts. science and history of the
Germans, both in the old and new country,
was highly interesting, and the festival fol-
lowing was an occasion long 10 be remem-
bered by the participants. The liberality and
enthusiasm with which the occasion was en-
tered into was shown by the fact that although
lie expenses of the festival were about 5000
there was over 400 left IN the treasury after
all bills were paid.
The parade and festival this season promises
10 be equal to the former occasion, and every
German in the city looks forward to the 23d
Of September as a red-lette day.
