Wednesday, August 14, 1940 THE FLEAHERTON ADVANCE GROW ITAPPIEai I know of no greater fallacy or one wore widely believed than the stete- ment that youth is the happiest time of life. As we advance in years we realy grow happier, if we live intell- igtntly. The universe is spectacular, and it is a free show. Increase of di- ficultics and e.sponsibilities stretigth- «ns and enriches the mind and add.s to the variety. To say that youth- is happier than maturity is like saying that the view from the bottom of th* tower is better than the view from the top. As we ascend, the range of our view widens immensely; the hor. izoii is ))ushed further away. Finally as we reach the summit it is as if we had the world at our feet. â€" William Lyon Phelps.

Teo DiamoDd Factories Ten factories continue in Eng- land the diamond cutting and pol- ishing industry which, until tk« Ger- man occupation, was the monopoly of Amsterdam and Antwerp. The first of them, and the first ever to carry out such work in England, is now doing 1,000,000 worth of bus- iness a year. Most of the workers are skilled refugees and the man. ager, an Ehiiglishman who has been living in Antwerp since 1912, has come back with a Belgian wife and son to open up a new industry in his own country. During the two months before the German invasion of the Low Count- @ri€s Mr. J. C. Cinder, Chairman of the Birmingham Jewellers' Assoc- iation Export Group, flew to Am- sterdam and Antwerp eighteen times buying up diamond cutting and pol- ishing machinery. As the Germans came into Ant- werp the last part of his order lay on the wharf. It was essen- tial plant and there are only photo- graphs of it, yet from these photo- graphs drawing office plans were re- constructed and the manufacture of the machines made possible. Britain, through her control of the South African sources of supply, al- ready has a monopoly of the rough diamond trade, and she may now be- come the world centre of tt« whole diamond industry. For lack of industrial diamonds, used for turning up aeroplane pistons and similar precision work, Germany is now badly crippled in her arma- ment manufacture. Britain's control of this vital supply is definitely assisting the progressive deteriora- tion of German guns and aircraft. ««. IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE eggs.
