Colorful Ceylon
It is not often that your patrons will get a chance to take a trip through a veritable Garden of Eden. On his trip Burton Holmes will show them many strange and unusual sights of the Far East that they never before have witnessed, such as a Buddhist funeral procession of a much beloved saint. Don't run away with the idea that this is going to be sad, far from it. It will appeal to them the more like a joyous Carnival when they see it, the beautiful water falls of St. Clair, the tea fields and hosts of other sights equally interesting, finally the journey ends up with a water scene, showing the Cingalese people taking on the best sport in the land, bathing.
