"Of all the pleasant

"Of all the pleasant features connected with the Fair, one of the most pleasant was the appreciation, we might almost say the affection with which it was regarded. Of all the lessons taught, perhaps the most valuable was that nations, like individuals, should not dwell apart, without interchange of commodities, thoughts, and ideals; nor is there anything that tends more surely to a universal brotherhood of nations than to become aquainted with the best that each has produced." Hubert Howe Bancroft - The Book of the Fair 1893
