GRAIN OF RICE
SID FOR $500
First Chapter of Koran En-
graVed on 1t.

BY United Press
CAIRO, April 5o.--A single grain
OF rice was sold at the Agricultural
and Industrial Exhibition here for
$500. 1t was just an ordinary grain
OF rice except that 1t bore writing
to the extent Of about $50 words. At
the price it was more precious than
the finest diamond Of similar size.
The inscribed grain was worked
by Nassib Makaram, a Syrian Sheikh
OF the Lebanon, and caligraphist
of extraordinary skill. He wrote on
the grain the famous first chapter
of the Koran and the text of a
speech made by the first Caliph, Abu
Bakr, on the day the Caliph as
sumed the sacred office. The first
chapter Of the Koran, called the
'Fatha" or Opening" is the Lords
prayer of Islam and runs as fol-
lows:
I'm the name Of God, the merciful.
the compassionate; praise be to God,
the lord Of worlds, the merciful, the
compassionate, lord of the day Of
judgment. Thee do we worship and
or Thee we beg assistance. Direct
US In the way Of those to whom
lhou hast been gracious, on whom
there Is no wrath and who go not
astray."
