ROCK HOUND'S
CORNER
By JOHN NEWMAN
You should have been there. .
the rock sale was such a success
that Fred McGill suggested the
cluw nav each member $10,000
as soon as the treasury would
stand it. But it aid net tne ciud
S24 and 30 minutes of real en
joyment. The highlight of the
meeting came wnen Mrs wait
Eduer went on record as having
done the club an injustice by
making a motion some lour
months asn that we dispense
with refreshments. Tonight she
made one to again nave tnem.
The opposition was very weak.
We are to have one more meet
ing before recessing for a couple
nf months. It will be at George
Miller's home near Cecil. I will
remind vou of it later with dir
ections how to get there.
The club picked Sunday, June
8 for a potluck and rock hunt
on Chapin Creek.
As instructive entertainment
of thp evening, Hubert gave a
short talk on agates. The Creator
received credit for their for
mation and man has classified
them in four groups.
I'm a little late in mention
ing our guests Mr and Mrs
Hilsberg, Mr and Mrs Babb and
Stanley Minor. Mr Babb gave
a short talk, and while not an
authority on gems or minerals
he is interested in them having
started out when lapidary equip
ment was less available than it
is totlav. His first saw. a disk of
Russian iron cut out by a friend
and charged with diamond dust
or chips by himself. They spent
the winter in Arizona enjoying
the sunshine and picking up fine
stones. He displayed a stone
which he had found but could
not classify. While visiting a
show he asked six dilterent ex
perts to classify it, receiving six
different answers which led him
to believe the classification was
not so important if the stone
was beautiful or rare or it holds
something of interest. Arizona is
a very fertile field for rock picK
prs and he disDlaved some beau
tiful tumbled species of fire opal
and desert roses, also a number
of Oregon jasper. Mr and Mrs
Babb are now members oi our
club.
Speaking of specimens, Betty
Wanner displayed a very good
samnie f autonitee uranium
