Outstanding features of the Orient Liners are their vast decks, which afford the fullest facilities for sports, dancing, and promenading, their spacious and beautifully appointed public rooms, and their comfortable and well-ventilated cabin accommodation. Both a consfortable and an enjoyable voyage is thus ensured. UNRIVALLED THIRD CLASS?. The present standard of the Third Class of the Orient Line indicates a considerable advance, and evidence in the progressive policy of the Line, the result of 50. years’ service to Australia. Every endeavour is made to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable voyage. Opportunities for exercise and recreation are afforded by the ample provision of deck spaces, and for social life by the wellfurnished public rooms. Special care has been given to ventilation, the most modern system having been installed. Free cinema performances are given from time to time, and the passengers have at their disposal an excellent library. In each steamer there is a shop stocked with everyday needs at reasonable prices, also a well-equipped hairdressing saloon.' Medical attention is given- to Third Class passengers free of charge. And the Orient Line route by way of Ceylon, Egypt, and the Mediterranean is by far the most attractive of all routes to London. An additional attraction to this route is the. Cairo Excursion, which, at a moderate fare, enables Third Class passengers to visit Cairo, the Pyramids, and Sphinx during the passage through the Suez Canal.
