Req. J. II. Dennis, Pastor
What a beautiful world for
the human family! If we would
only realize Gods goodness and
our duty to one another, how
happy and prosperous we would
be. Instead Of fear there would
be peace and love, Christians
and the world need the message
of Jonah. He was sent on a mis-
sion--to save a nation. This
shows that God does direct the
affairs Of men and nations by
sending His servants in their
midst.
That was the gist of the mes
sage brought by the pastor at
the morning service last Sunday.
The fear Of God is the begin
ming Of wisdom. Jonah, the
messenger, was ingnorant of

Paved With Diamonds

street and down in the Bowery S
in its completed stage. Nothing
could be further from the truth.
/ True, one may get such an item IN
! that fashion but most of the buying
and selling is in the rough stage.
Here's how diamond is proceSsed:
/. One of the first steps is the study
of its geometrical shape. imperfec-
tions. flaws, etc, if any. This Is
ascertained with magnifying glass,
Then the diamond is marked with
pen and India ink to indicate the
saving line.
J.. Diamonds are either sawed or
cleaved. Most of them. however,
! are sawed. This is done by a phos-
phor- bronze saving blade three to
five one -thousandths of an inch
thick revolving at approximately
$500 revolutions per minute. We
watched this operation being done
by Arthur Fine, who is the third
generation engaged in the diamond
cutting business of Max Fine &
Sons.
The next step in making round
diamond is girdling. Here the stone
is imbedded in a metal holder with
cement and then attached to re-
volving lathe. The cutter or "gir-
dler" has another diamond i'm
bedded in cement which he holds
against the diamond revolving In
the lathe. Both diamonds grind
against each other and gradually
become round.
The final operation Is polishing.
This means putting facets on the
stone. A clamp tool called dop
holds the diamond that Is set
against the diamond polishing
wheel. This wheel rotates at 2,500
revolutions per minute. The wheel
is impregnated with diamond dust
and olive oil and revolves on a pho
nograph record disc principle. Fifty
eight facets is the standard cut. but
Max Fine & Sons. after much ex-
perimentation. has evolved a dia-
mond with 102 facets called
Magma Cut.
Also scattered along this midtown
center of the diamond industry are
diamond clubs" To gain admit
tance is a very hard thing, In these
clubs men sit at tables, bargaining
and buying loose merchandise. In
one club there is the official weigh
ing scale on which every offlcial
transaction is weighed.
Though diamonds have been used
in various ways, they possess besides
their great beauty and value other
excellent qualities. Right at this
moment the Government is laying
in a great stock pile of diamonds.
A diamond Is the hardest known
item in the world, and they are used
extensively for precision instru-
ments.
The Diamond street" possesses
such color and such great values
that many celebrities are often to be
spotted walking along the pavement
and inside the exchange buildings.
A young diamond dealer had this
to say concerning them: "They try
to chisel just like any one else"
