"Woman standing in a window, looking out at Puget Sound. Panorama of downtown Seattle, Puget Sound. Woman looks at camera, laughs. Man spinning a large globe. Smith Tower from the street. Man in a rowboat by a pier. Street scenes. Man and woman at the Lincoln Park beach. Iwao and Mrs. Matsushita in Seward Park. Young boys digging in weeks on the shore. Man feeding flocks and flocks of ducks, people watching. Goats and rams in a pen. A pier downtown. Iwao and another man petting a cat, woman in a fur collared coat on a terrace. Woman hanging clothes outside, chickens in the backyard. Street scene. Coliseum Theatre. Christmas decorations on the street. Christmas tree indoors, christmas cards on a mantle."
