Sugarcane juice vendor

The modern, mobile, sugarcane (ganna) juice vendor: In 'the old days' a guy came around, usually walking, sometimes on a cycle, with the crusher mainly made of wood, slung over his shoulder and the ganna carried on his head. Today's crusher is turned by a diesel engine which also drives the cart. (Lucknow)

From Mein Kampf

THE LAST RESERVE OF PEACE
Mistaken humour of a Berlin newspaper Great War
cartoonist. The inscription read,"France calls up her last
reserve, Sarah Bernhardt, as the Maid of Orleans,
arrives at military headquarters."

GERMANY "THRASHING" THE ALLIES (Bottom)
Wishful thinking by a German cartoonist in 1914,
showing Austria administering a thrashing to Serbia,
while her Allies are told, "Don't push, gentlemen! You'll
each have your turn!"

Excavated Cannon and balls

The small cannon is what was at the foot of Claude Martin's bust in the
La Martiniere College, Lucknow
garden. I was removed a few months ago when the garden was being rearranged. The large cannon with a piece missing, perhaps, when it was fired last was found buried in the garden. The cannon balls were also found buried all these years since 1857. The small piece of iron of doubtful shape could be from a small cannon and was in the games room (from nobody knows when).

Mrs Olive Anthony is to his left and far right is Mr AET Barrow who had
served as Secretary to the Anglo-Indian Association
