AQUAMAIUNE
m
4, The • blue to green
aquamarine and other beryls
apparently were not as highly
esteemed as emerald by the
ancients, although beryl is
mentioned in the Bible.
Alternating with bloodstone as
the birthstone for the month of
March, aquamarine has long
been considered the symbol of
happiness and everlasting
youth. In the Middle Ages, it
was supposed to give the
wearer insight and foresight.
It was also thought to induce
sleep. It had powers over evil,
since, when consecrated and
worn, the wearer was
conqueror over all wicked-
ness. Water in which
aquamarine had been soaked
was believed to cure eye
troubles, stoppage of breath
and hiccups. The name is
-derived from the Latin word
meaning "sea -water" : an apt
description of the colour of
many of the stones seen on the
market.
Many aquamarines of huge
sizes have been found. In 1910,
for example, a crystal was
found in Brazil that weighed
243 pounds. It was cut into
many High-quality gems. The
British Museum of Natural
History boasts a flawless;sea-
green`step-cut aquamarine
that weighs 879.5 carats. The
American Museuin of Natural
History has a number of
notable specimens.
1Vlokganite, the light purple -
red. to purplish -red beryl, was
named after J. Pierpont
Morgan, a famous gem

Beryl is also -found in
brownish -yellows and
yellowish -browns, know.n as
golden beryl. Chatoyancy
sometimes occurs in
semitransparent beryl (cat's-
eye effect) .
Aquamarine is the term
used for blue to greenish -blue
beryls, varying in tone from
very_ light to medium dark.
Aquamarine and other beryls
of gem quality are found
almost exclusively in
pegmatite dikes. The prim-
cipal source today is the state
of Minas Geraes, Brazil.
Madagascar is also a source of
significance, producing gem
material of very fine quality.
Beryls have been found in
Southern California, South
Africa, Ceylon, and Maine.
Fine greenish -blue gems are
the most characteristic,
although the tnedium-dark
blues from Madagascar are
considered by many, as the
most valuable,. Aquamarine
is highly prized, among gems,
for its soft blue colour and fire,
duplicated by no other gem.

In addition, Elwood Mitchell a.
is a qualified butcher, and is
offering his services as a
custom butcher to area
residents in addition to offering
a full line of groceries to
compliment his locker service
and egg grading station.
Before buying the Lon-
desbgro store, Mr. Mitchell was
a meat inspector with the
province for five years at
Dunnville.
The Mitchells and their two
children, Traci, 12, and Mark
11, are looking forward to many
years of friendly transactions
with the local citizens„ and
most customers will be quick to
agree the Mitchells offer nearly
all the best things of a big
supermarket, but have added
the often overlooked personal
service angle.
Besides the regular line of
can goods and groceries, the
Londesboro Locker Service will
offer fresh fruits and
vegetables, customs but-
chering and freshly graded
eggs, something few town
supermarkets can offer. The
store is also an outlet for
Buchanan Dry Cleaners of
Mount Forest.
Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell are
hoping to become better
acquainted with the people in
the area, and so this Thursday,
Friday, and Saturday, March
20,21, and 22, they are holding
an open house at their store in
Londesboro, with the free
coffee for all visitors, suckers
for the kiddies. As well, they
are.,offerting,a host ,of .ip store
specials•for all shoppers.
"The greatest sin is not
murder, dope, rape, violence,
robbery, pollution or lusjt ... it
is apathy!"
We would like
to meet you!
Elwood and Audrey Mitchell have taken over the Lon-
desboro Locker Service formerly ope -ated by Cliff Saund
ercock Besides stocking a full line of groceries, cooked and
cured meat as well as fruits and vegetables, Elwood
specializes in the custom 4utting and wrapping of fresh
meats. Elwood is an experienced butcher and spent 5 years
as a Provincial meat inspector, so he is well qualified to give
you the kind of butcher service you appreciate.
Audrey and Elwood operated a grocery store for 3 years in
Bayfield before coming to Londesboro. As part of the
business they operate a licensed egg grading station, so they
can supply you with the freshest eggs at the best possible
price, both retail and wholesale. Cold storage locker rentals
are available and they will custom cut and fast freeze the
meat for your home freezer. Another handy service for those
who shop at the Londesboro Locker Service regularly is the
dry cleaning depot pickup provided by Buchanan Cleaners
of Mount Forest.
So now the weather is beginning to make a little drive a
real pleasure, why not try their friendly service. Their prices
will make it "worth your while.
