with 12 members and one guest
In attendance.
Johanne Taylor gave a report
cn amethyst, the February birth
stone, that variety of crystalline
quartz which shows various
shades of purple or violet color.
The name "amethyst" owes its
root to the Greek word Ameth
ustos, meaning "not drunken." i
Judging from its widespread use.
the amethyst must have been a
popular stone among the an
cients. In the burial crypts and
ruins of the ancient Egyptians
and Babylonians, seals and orn
amets of amethyst are not un
common. In the 18th century,
the amethyst was held to be
nearly as valuable as the dia
mond. Among churchmen, the ame
thyst is regarded as a sacred
stone, and is referred to in Ex
odus 28:13 and 39:12, as one of
the atones used in Aaron's
breastplate. -
When amethysts of large size
and deep, even color are offer
ed for sale at a low price, it
is best to make a careful exam
ination before purchasing. Any
cut amethyst of ten ' or more
carats in weight would likely
show uneveness in distribution
of the color, and any stone of
that size In which the color Is
evenly distributed should be
looked upon with suspicion.
