Diamond in the Rummage Unforeseen excitement at the rummage sale conducted by the Wonder Woods Women's Association Friday and Saturday, was caused by the finding of a "diamond" ring in one of the donated boxes. Do you suppose it could have slipped off the donor's finger as she packed the box, and really be a diamond? If genuine it must surely weigh a carat -- look at the blue fire in its depth there in the light. (Cold chills at the thought of having sold it for a buck as a zircon, before the anguished owner discovered the loss). Thus our amateur jewelers speculated as they removed the treasure from display. The women starts ed a systematic run-down of the whence of the box, which led round about to the origin. Nope, 'twas not a precious stone, but a very handsome ring, none the less. Oh yes, the women were gratified with the results of their sale and wish to thank the community for their patronage.
