Exhibitors from all over the state will display their collections of precious and materials, minerals, and jewelry. Each day demonstrations will be given by experts in silver smithing, faceting, drilling, and cutting and polishing rocks for jewelry. Hobbyists will be interested to see what is believed to be the first lapidary equipment built in Utah. Mr. Robert Dover, uncle of the Glen Dovers now living in Tooele, built a hand operated combination saw and lap table with which he pursued his hobby of making cabachons and spheres.
