Bread Lines in Orient and Occident

1917, English.

We have our poor people and the east has its starving millions; even in far-away Ceylon there are many kind hearts beating beneath dark skins, and it is to show you some of their methods of taking care of their poor that Mr. Holmes invites your patrons to come with him to Ceylon, there to see the way the rich men of the land think of their less fortunate brothers and how they "fill 'em up" with the popular food of both classes of the land, rice. After witnessing this sight, and by way of contrast, Mr. Holmes brings them back to the land of the free and to a bread line which is assembling at the back door of an up-town hotel. The "hand out" soon appears, and we might add the "hand-outees" soon disappear.
