Coming from land fresh from war.
you will probably notice first in the
moving museum of nations the allied
military. Down the wide, well-re-
paired road they swing, avoiding the
cobblestone sidewalk. Here and there
they turn into the little shops that
open stall-like upon the pavement.
Souvenirs of olive wood. Bethlehem
mother-of-pearl. Jerusalem lace, sill
yer trinkets. picture post cards are
there to lure their coins.
Great Britain, Italy, France. Egypt.
India. Australia. Canada, the Hedjaz,
Japan-they are all here. That swar-
thy figure in khaki and red fez is
a captain in the Egyptian army, and
the tall officer that forges his way
with an easy stride through the
crowd. his flowing headdress con-
spicuous above the regulation uni
form. is of Emir FeisuTs forces.
Swarthier still in their belted blouses
and turbans of khaki come the Indian
troops, rubbing shoulders with the
stalwart Anzacs in their cooked hats
and the killed Highlanders.
