n caU frum Cbarl .. , Ukita of Tar Lold. Inc., who caUl'd and a k~>d u!! to drolJ in and pick up a Ilo~d8Y 1. . ue ad.

Mr. Ukita IS formerly a lO(lO

Clubbcr from Chicago and he has c tablisbed a factory here manufacturing dIamond Wheels, diamond tools and carbide dies. HI! took us on a personally con­ducted tour of his establishment and we learned more about dia­monds than we ever knew be· fore. He showed us many uncut raw diamonds, which' to us looked like nothing more than a lot of hu~ gravel stones, but whcn he told us thQ value oj

these stones we a!mo~t filpped. He lihowed us bow the stone!; were cut and put Into various tools ·used for cutting other materials,

He explained that tbe dia­mond was the hardest known substance for cutting without wearing, yet could be smashed int" flr ,,,el,.,. .. , ith 'l hAm fl> ' " 1-£e

a lso explained that diamonds had to be cut with diamonds si nce there is nothing else that will cut them .

So you gals that have these precious stones on your finger, take good care of them because a lot of work goes into makling them the way they are. not to m ention the hard work the ole man had t.o get it on your finger in the first place, Look who's talking?

Anyway we wish to thank Mr. Ukita for a most interest­ing tour and we hope we'll be able to take a chapter and visit you once again.
