Thanks...nice history of Macy's. One item in the history caught my eye:

To help celebrate their new American heritage, Macy's immigrant employees organized the first Christmas Parade in 1924. The procession featured floats, bands, animals from the zoo and 10,000 onlookers, beginning a time-honored tradition now known as the annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

We still see a lot of that American pride in new immigrant naturalized citizens, but the press does its damnedest to tamp them down and extol those who do nothing but whine and complain about their new country.
