Lupan is the name Of the god which
the members of the Picking building
trades worship. Lu is the name of
a kingdom, in the Chow dynasty
(1122-220 c., and Pan is the name
of skilled mechanic of that time,
He is frequently mentioned in the
classics as nm inventor Of mechan-
lcal devices. From him the guild of
the building trade derives its name,
says the Detroit News.
The guild includes carpenters. ma
sons, brlcklayers blacksmiths and
painters. The meeting always takes
place in the Using chung temple, out
side Chienmen, which was erected for
the worship Of 70 Eel. The latter is
the famous patriotic general Of the
Sung dynasty (960-1276 A. d. 1t is
not known why the building trades
chooses this temple for Its meeting
place.

Cost of Living Brought
to Minimum in Ecuador

Eggs in Oriente, a province of Ec-
uadOr, cost nominally 10 cents doz-
en-, which In United States currency
would be 21a cents but since the pro
Queer receives merely a yard of cloth
in exchange this barter brings the
cost Of dozen Of eggs down to 8
mills in American money. A person
with fixed income of S25 a month
can live comfortably In Orlente. Al
most no one pays house rent. A five
room twO-story house costs about $45
to build, writes II. s. Dlckey in Cur
rent History Magazine.
The Indian boys are quite efficient
as house attendants, but their man
ners vary somewhat from those of the
trained servant at home. 1t is not
unusual for one Of them to burst into
the matters bedroom at dawn smoking
q 4-inch cigarette, and the whole fam
lily gathers around to see one shave.
Each servant works for one week and
receives ut the end Of that time one
yard Of cloth, which is enough for a
pair of trousers. This satisfies his
wants, so he vacates and another takes
his place.

The country folk (of Java) them
selves, conscious Of their. ornate set

group Of those women, moving in
musical comedy, would give theat-

the matter Of his box office receipts.
They are so modest and polite that
they never stare at a stranger though
with such figures, eyes and coloring.

greatly If they did. Their manners are
perfect, except that most of them
chew betel nut, and casually make
railway platforms and footpaths dis

dinarily silent on Sunday will broad.
cast special Golden Rule Day pro.
grams. It is stated that 200 clergy.
men. the most prominent pulpit ora.
tors in America, will preach radio ser.
mons for these invisible audiences,
using the Golden Rule as their text.
Arrangements for the Golden Rule
Day broadcasting are being made with
the cooperation OF General James G.
Hartford, president of the Radio Cor
poration Of America. who is one of the
national Board of Trustees Of Near
East Relief.
1t is interesting to recall the incep-
ton Of this Golden Rule Day idea,
which has received enthusiastic en-.
dorsement from President Coolidge
and the rulers of many European coun-
tries. That the idea had its origin in
Geneva, Switzerland, is no occasion
for surprise, because nearly every one
OF the great humanitarian projects Of
today have had their birth in the little
Alpine republic, a country which,
though small in area, cherishes ideals
that tower like its noble mountains.
The first International Golden Rule
dinner was held at the Hotel des Der.
CUES in Geneva on August 80. Paul
Iiymans. president OF the Council OF
the League of Nations, presided. Rep
resentatiyes of twenty-three nations
were present. They elected as the
president OF their international organ
ization an American, Charles V. Wick
rey of New York, who has been the
head of the Near East Relief orRaniza.

To launch the plans for observance
OF Golden Rule Sunday in America, q
similar dinner was held at the Hotel
Roosevelt in New York a few weeks
later. This has been followed by hun.
dreds Of similar organizational din,

wneh PRESIDENT Coolidge was the prin
cipal speaker.
At all these dinners the guests have
been seated at plain pine tables and
have partaken together Of the same
simple menu which is provided daily
for the thousands Of orphans under
American care in Bible Lands. Tin

orphanage workshops In Greece and
Palestine, have been used.
On December every household in
the United States is invited to partici

"Romc Not Built in a Day"

This expression, in one form or
other is very old 1t means that
great things are not achieved without
much patience and effort Many cen
turtles were required to make Rome
the chief city of the world. The city
was the accumulation Of the products
of knowledge, art and war for many
generations. Claudlanus, one of the
last great poets Of Rome, wrote this
sentence: what Roman power slowly
built, an unarmed traitor instantly
overthrow" Many other early writ
ers make reference TO the long years
required to build Rome. The express
sion, "Rome was not built in a day."

In Shadow of Pyrenees

San Sebastian, Spain, is one of ma
lures beauty spots. II is sheltered by
two mountains which rise up abruptly
behind the little town, with its quaint
little harbor. Fresh and clean like
well-tended child, the town gathers
round the narrow beach, with the Isia
Santa Clara straight across the har-
Dor entrance, a refuge from the bois-
ferrous Biscay. The promenade is
frlnged with young trees, whose foil
age is soft as swans down. The air
is mild, soft as the fresh water so de-
llghtfu for a shave. San Sebastian
may not be Spain, though it has its
Plaza de Toro. but 1t is very pleas
ant port Of entry.

More Early Risers

A young couple who had just begun
to keep house were not financially able
to buy clock; they determined the
hour for rising In winter by watching
for light in the window of neigh
boring farmhouse. One night on wax
ing and seeing the light, they rose, did
the morning chores and ate their
breakfast. Still daylight held OFF. and
so they sat down to wait. To their
establishment, while they were looking
out of the window, they saw the light
in the neighboring farmhouse go out.
Their neighbors were just going to
