All that has been said so far, ho de
clared, has been on the other side.

JAIN TEMPLE IN INDIA

Mr. Ewlng, general secretary of the
University V. M. C. A., spoke beforo
a limited number at convocation yes
terday. Ills topic yas "Architecture
of India." As an Introduction to his
talk Mr. Ewlng pointed out the more
important cities and sections of India
to make -clear tho locatjon of various
kinds of architecture. Tourists usu
ally travel through the territory im
mediately south of tho Illmalya moun
tains, for some of the world's greatest
and moBt beautiful buildings are lo
cated there.
monument, is tho chief construction'
of an architectural nature in India
and the Jain Temple on Mount Aboo
Is said to have cost over one million
dollars. The Taj Agro, claimed as
tho most beautiful building In tho
world, was designed by an Indian and
not by an Italian, as Is tho general
impression. Tho landscapo about this
structure Is most beautiful.
The-temples-are-usually-constructed
In three parts, tho temple proper, tho
shrine porch, and the dancing hall.
About these temples are often found
from one to four rectangular walls,
with a largo gateway at every side.
Tho w'all is nothing out of tho ordi
nary, but the gateways aro architec
ture of tho very finest. Carvings
cover the arches to a holght of 150
feet in somo cases. Seven temples
out from solid rock aro located in this
region, and although, they aro incom
plete, they represent workmanship of
a high order. Every temple has a
"Hall of 1.00G Columns." This Is but
the title given to a particular building,
for many of them contain only sev
eral hundred.
