CHRYSOBERYL
"A most superb
chrysoberyl, of a deep
yellowish -green colour and
great perfection, a matchless
specimen". Thus did the
catalog of the British Museum
of Natural History describe
the Hope Chrysoberyl,
previously part of the famous
collection of Thomas P. Hope,.,
a renowned gem fancier.
Chrysoberyl, which is
derived from the two Greek
words meaning "golden" and
"beryl", is one of the most
interesting, yet least known,
of the important gems.
Probably the best known
variety is the cat's eye (not
the variety of quartz known as
cat' -eye or tiger's - eye). With
its silky luster and sharp
"eye", it is the moat beautiful
chatoyant stone known in
nature. In the Orient, -cat's-
-eye is highly revered as a
preserver of good fortune. The
natives of Ceylon consider it to
be a potent charm against evil
spirits.
Alexandrite, which alter-
nates with pearl and moon-
stone as birthstones for the
month of June, is particularly
interesting because of its
cha;ij of colour. This variety
received its name from the
fact that it was discovered on
the birthday of Alexander 11,
Czar of Russia, in 1830.
Because of this and its red and
green colours alexandrite has
been a particular favorite in
that country. It very rarely
occurS in large sizes.
Alexandrite exhibits a distinct
colour change from red, under
-ir tand+escent-bulbs-to=green-in,,..
daylight or-flouresoentAlght._—
Often the colours are'
brownish.
Chatoyancy may occur in
any colour of chrysoberyl, but,
the most highly prized is
slightly greenish -yellow or
brownish -yellow, similar to
that of honey. Chatoyancy is'
an optical phenomenon that
beautifully reproduces the
appearance of the narrowed
pupil in the eye of a cat.
Other varieties of tran-
sparent chrysoberyl are not
frequently seen, but are very
beautiful and attractive.
Chrysolite, a light tone
medium tone of yellowish -
green to greenish yellow,
usually comes from Brazil.
Other stones from Ceylon are
often brownish -greens to
brownish -yellows.
Gem material is almost
invariably recovered from
alluvial gravels; the most
important source is Ceylon.
'Rt ala produces both
alexandrites ano clear colours
of chrysoberyl. Both
alexandrite and cat's-eye are
intriguing because of their
phenomenal optical proper-
ties.

Water,sewage rates up
David C. Anstett G.G.
Graduate Gemmol, gist
(G.I.A.)
Clinton
Water and sewage rates f, r Vanastra
residents and commercial users are going
up shortly. Tuckersmith council approved
a whopping increase to 120 mills up from 54
mills last year, for residential users and to
51 mills, up from 28 mills for commercial
properties, at their meeting Tuesday night
in Brucefield.
Clerk Jim McIntosh said that residential
assessment in Vanastra ranges from $1,100
to $2,700 and said that the new rates would
mean that a resident with an average
house assessed at $1,600 would pay $192 a
year for sewage and water services.'
"That's still less than Egmondville
residents might have to pay for sewers
alone", one councillor commented.
• Someone with a $1,000 assessment would
pay $132 and with a $2,000 assessment,
$240.
Clerk McIntosh said the increase in rates
is made essential by increased labour costs
and by an annual payment for water to the
Clinton PUC of about $25,000.
The Ministry of the Environment set a
sewage budget for Vanastra of $35,360, up
from $30,062 last year and a water budget
of $22,340, up from $15,360 of last year. The
water budget does not include the $25,000
payment to Clinton.
Nearly 250 persons turned out last Thursday to the noon
luncheon sponsored by the UCW of Wesley -Willis United
Church in Clinton. Here Dave. Beattie of Clinton gets help
with his serving from Mrs. Charlie Brown. (News -Record
