Tens of thousands of prayers woven
y hand into an intricate pattern
nakes a large mosque rug now on ex-
.ibit in the oriental rug display in
lie new Union, one of the most fan-
us in the world.
Many 400 Years Old
Probably having lain in a Hindoo
iosque 400 years ago, this ancient ex-
mple of the highest type of Ghiordian
rt, could it speak, would have a story
hat might be unrivaled in the history
f the world. For who but itself
ould tell of the myriads of bare feet
hat traversed its delicately wrought
urface could relate the religious em-
tions of those countless thousands
rho entered the sacred portals of the
emple?I
Each Design Is a Prayer
Though we are unable to converse
rith it, this rug has breathed forth its
iessage to Moslem worshipers for
mturies. It is composed of more than
0 narrow stripes woven side by side,
ach of which contains a narrow pat-
ern of one or, in some cases, several
ifferent designs. There are over 10,-
00 varying patterns in the rug and
hese are repeated hundreds of times.
ach different design stands for a dis-
inct prayer which the Mohammedan
tters as many times as the design is
epeated. One incantation calls for
,000 complicated repititions while an-

these require days to recite.
Part of Moslem Faith
This rug was woven purely to satisfy
the Moslem religion. An essential part
of the Mohammedanism is a self-in-
duced ecstasy where the worshiper
sees visions but performs wonders un-
der the influence of religious emotion.
Some of the worshipers known as
dervishes become hypnotized by their
religious feeling, and when under the
influence make easy work of handling
hot irons, eating live coals, glass, or
scorpions, not for the benefit of vulgar
curiosity but purely from a spirit of
religious edification. Stories of such
cases cannot be too greatly exagger-
ated as events actually have happened
commonly as described.
Because of the almost complete ex-
tipation of the people of Asia
Minor, rugs will never be creatbd
again which will even approach the
beauty aid elegance of this excellent
example of human handiwork.

heur ranks among the finest animal
paintings of the French school. Two
other paintings, one by Raphael Mengs
and another by H. K. Brown, of the
modern American artists were pre-
sented by Mrs. Collins Hubbard and
accepted by the Regents.
Consider Observatory Change
An appropriation of $650 was made
for the inventory and cataloging of
the University collection of rare coins.
Librarian W. W. Bishop states that
large collections of this nature are
often received, and facilities are most
convenient for the study of numis-
matics by devotees of ancient money.
A recommendation was made to the
Regents suggesting the change of loca-
tion of the observatory, because of the
smoke and the shaking of the earth
near the railroad tracks. The matters
was referred to committee for consid-
eration.
Regent Lucius L. Hubbard was
granted permission to have the Uni-
versity statutes and laws printed
which he has been compiling.

the University was concerned, but w

People tell us
our store Is different
Of course it's different.
Because it's a service grocery. It's not just a store
where groceries are sold.
It's a place where everything is done to make buying
groceries a real pleasure.
A big stock of good things to eat. Courteous, intelli-
gent clerks who understand their business thoroughly.
Prompt deliveries.
A telephone that is always open to you.
A place where you can have a charge account if you
so desire.
A store that sells quality goods which it can recommend
without the slightest fear or hesitation. To illustrate
what we mean, just consider the question of baking pow-
der. It's only a small part of our entire business but we
consider it a most important feature.
Because baking powder plays such a vital part in the
preparation of food in your home. If it isn't good it can
ruin a great amount of good material. Therefore the
baking powder we recommend must be good-so good
that we won't have the slightest chance of displeasing a
customer.
RYZON is such a baking powder. It's pure, it's always
uniform, always efficient and it will do anything any oth-
er baking powder will do. It's priced fairly and honestly,
too. ,;c per pound tin. Baking Book free.
