China, Beijing. "April 4 1910. Yesterday Capt. Fitz Hugh fetched us in a motor and took Lambert, Sis, and myself out to the Wan-Shou-ssu Temple, where the Imperial family rest on their way to the Summer Palace... . In 1900 the Germans looted this temple, and all the ornaments are quite new and it has been repainted, which makes it glaring, but it is very prettily designed and there is a lovely rock garden!"Tibet, Lhasa. "The Potala is a huge square building, topping a little conical hill, with a dozen or so of smaller ones on the slopes below, all flat topped and dotted with blind window arches like the one at the Ta Fo Sau. There is a fine mellow massiveness about the whole design of great square blocks set in the clustering darkness of fine trees. The bell sounded for prayers... and Lamas of all ages came pouring up, clad in all shades of yellow... many in most undignified haste robing as they ran. They filed into a small side temple and squatted in rows... while the head priest in a glorious red cloak, mellow with age marked time with a bell. Then the chief priest came and talked to us and allowed us to photograph him in his cloak, with a wonderful tasselled ornament hanging down his back, he was very friendly and much interested."Japan. Nihongami. "After we'd done bowing and smiling... I was escorted upstairs to unrobe, and when I came down in my cotton kimono, there was quite a crowd waiting... . It was a drastic process. I don't wonder Jap ladies sleep on a wooden pillow and only have it done once a week... . Then they applied oil and stuff that looked like cobbler's wax and I quailed but endured... the hairdresser-in-chief shooed away her assistants and set to work in real earnest. She scraped me and combed me and tied my unhappy hair with bits of gut, pulled taut with her teeth and she tied on a long tail of black hair and no end of pads.
