Roclchound Corner By BETTY WAGNER Our president, Mrs. George Miller, called the February meet ing to order; Mrs. Terry Blevins read the minutes of the previous meeting, and another full and interesting evening began. One subject under discussion during the business meeting was th need for a club scrapbook. Thn the meeting was turned over to the program chairman, Mrs Harold Evans. Randall Peterson brought out many facts regarding the Fe,. ruary birthstone amethyst n occurs In shades of purple or violet and is a variety of crystal line quarta with a h'dr"dness 0f 7. Originally It was bought that its color was due t 0 tne presence of manganese. -oxidei but this theory is bejoming doubtful since chemist are unable to find any tr.ces of the oxide in the crysUly,. since amethysts are usually found in igneous rocks, anotber theory under study is that i.-rays and radium, also west -Commonly found in igneous roi-ies, may be responsible for he violet color. Amethyst is one of the eldest recorded stones in history and the largest one ever found was 343 carats. RandaJl displayed a tray containing sev eral amethyst Tings.
