DRESSMAKING ALTERATIONS Zee Newman 2S Cebb St Phone M7- 7H V OUR DIAMONDS ARE MORE THAN TEN MILLION YEARS OLD Yes, our diamond as well at practically all of th diamonds worn by men ond women today, ore at least 10 million years old. Since th day your diamond was formed in the slowly cooling molten lava in a volcano, the face of the earth has been almost completely changed. The Grand Canyon of the Colorado river hod not yet begun. The Colo rado river hod cut no deeper into the earth than hos our Deer Creek. Mt. Ma zomo, later to explode ond form Crater Lake was just beginning to erupt t form a mountain, The oldness of your diamond attests to its durability ond hardness. Many diamonds hove been found in stream gravels hundreds of miles from the ploce) where they were formed, having been washed along by the woter ond gravel. Most of these diamonds were found to be very slightly the worse for wear from their rough mode of transportation. It is only fitting that the diomond the hardest ond most brilliant of gems should be the symbol of the engagement, an agreement for long stand ing, for a diamond is really forever.
