SINGAPORE SINGAPORE, THE harbor of in+rlgue and enchantment, the Gibraltar ot the Orient, or the crossroads of the world. All nnay be ways of describing the port of Sinapore, but to the crew of the BOXER it might be summed up to the tune of . . . Post cards, Joe, Bananas, Coconuts, plenty for cheap, Telia your fortune, Taxie, Joe, and the swarms of pleading Trishaw boys that were the plaguing escort of the sailors everywhere. The first view of the city of Singapore proved to be one of mixed impressions. The sight of ancient Chinese junks with their lug-sails full blown alongside the most modern merchant and war ships, the Western and Eastern architecture side by side and the mixture of the races that greeted the eye as you drew near Clifford pier, filled everyone with expectancy, which was not let down. The most metropolitan city of the Orient is the home of many fine European shops, restaurants, hotels, theaters and night clubs, where a person may enjoy himself royally. Dining in an exclusive European atmosphere, one may glance through the shaded win- dows and see Indian fakirs with their snakes and tricks, performing for one and all; lightly garbed vendors of many oriental nationalities loudly recommending their stock of soda waters, oriental foods, or tropical fruits to the passing sightseers. The shops, which are predominantly Indian and Chinese, are filled with items from all over the world. Here you can buy a rug of camels hair from Kashmere, Lacquer from Foo Chow, Siamese silver from Bangkok, silk from China, tapestries and rugs from Italy and India, woolens from England, leather goods from Malaya, and as the merchant would put it, rare jewels cheap which more often were cut from glass than the genuine mineral. There are many good phrases to sum up Singapore, but the sailor who said Damn good liberty port pretty well expressed the opinions of the BOXER ' S crew.
