...Japan's first act as one of the Allies was to besiege Tsingtao. It was defended with extreme gallantry by the German garrison, for the Kaiser had bombastically called it "the jewel of my heart." Japan held Tsingtao through the War and after. But its attempt to stay out the 99-year lease was solemnly thwarted by the Great Powers at the Washington Conference (1921-22) and by the Sino-Japanese Treaty of 1922 when Japan solemnly swore to leave Tsingtao alone. Tsingtao remained, nevertheless, a jewel...

However, as a venture, a man at Geraldton has undertaken this summer a lobster-canning industry there and told us to come and stay at his camp there if we liked. The only way was to go with a fishing boat, which dropped us at the West Wallaby Island and agreed to stop for us again in two weeks, after making their fishing cruise. Schevill and I thought we ought to make...
