It would scarcely interest the reader to be told how we beguiled the long tedious days at sea with ship's quoits, "Bull," and other mild amusements of a similar nature, or the still longer evenings with whist; how we went ashore at dirty glary Port Said, and drank bad coffee, while a brass band of German girls discoursed anything but "sweet music"; how "the inevitable" made a desperate effort to get up a dance in the Red Sea on one of the hottest nights, but was instantly suppressed by force of numbers, determined, though well-nigh prostrate from the heat; or how we went to the Wakwalla Gardens at Galle, to drink cocoa-nut milk and admire the first glimpse of tropical scenery.
"On the Equator"
Harry de Windt
He was rather young to go off alone on a journey, but a neighbor half a mile down the glary white road was going his way, and would take him in charge.
"The Very Small Person"
Annie Hamilton Donnell
There's acres and acres of the best skating you ever heard of, glary as a pane of glass."
"Winter Fun"
William O. Stoddard
