Transcription


A proud father. The mother, more retiring, hides behind.

Pounding rice to remove the husk. The rice is in a hole in the ground, and
the pounder presses on a lever with his foot. On releasing it, the stone
weight crushes the rice.

The patient ox, doing his wearisome stint of grinding grain.

Rickshaws along a flooded river front. Buckets for carrying water.

The steamer coming to the wharf. Coolies jumping over before the gang
plank is laid.

Steam has not yet displaced the sails in China.
