delightful time while in the south.
“‘hile in Miami. Mr. Jones had his
first experience. in an acroiilane.
"There was a. party of us at the
bench." said Mr. Jones. “and we were
watching the flying machines. One
of the members of the party, a
lady. asked me if I had ever boon
up in a. machine. I replied in the
negative and declared that I would
go up in one if she would. And she
look me up. It was a great sensa—
tion flying over the water.“
“'hile in Miami Mr. Jones met

Through a. chance. he learned that
in taking over the three mile tract of
land for CoralGabics. tne promoters
had overlooked a. seven acre tract
right in the center or the develop-
ment. And what does Mr. “'ebb do
but. buy this piece of property right
from under the noses of the pro-
