They are all perfect in development educated and intelligent, and fitted both intellectually & physically for the duties & requirements of life. Robust health, beauty, grace, manly dignity & feminine sweetness are combined in them in the amplest manner. No exhibition so marvelously beautiful has ever been seen on earth."
