East of Suez (1917)
"As you loll comfortably on the deck, your steamer approaches the Suez Canal and you enter this interesting stretch of water at Port Said. You land at Aden, the British Gibraltar in Arabia. Here and there queer specimens of humanity are moping along, seemingly unaware of their very existence. Next there is a parade given by the British Tommies. In India you reach Bombay; Bombay is a busy place. There are over a million natives there, curiously clad, under the beneficent rule of England, as represented by such men as an Irish major. The major is attended by seven servants, who cost a total monthly payroll of seven dollars."
