Building a Fine Cruiser

Mr.. Geo. Gingras, the we'll known
boat builder. of Rockledge, has the
moulds up this week for a new forty
foot cruiser that he is building for
Mr.. Geo. w. Perkins, one of the di-
rectors of the F. E. C. railway. The
craft will have a beam of little over
ten feet, elegantly fitted up inside
for cruising and will probably be
supplied with a Sterling heavy duty
motor. The plans were drawn by
Mr.. Gingras himself, and the en-
tire boat will be a genuine Gingras
production throughout, which is a
guarantee that no better can be had
anywhere.

tise this section, the first edition to
be sent out the latter part of Novem-

Letter From Mayor HughIett

Cocoa, Fla, Oct. 18th, 1909.
Mr.. ]. Lorillard, Jr.
Through the public press, and
more particularly through message
brought to me, from you, by Dean
RobottOm, my attention has been
called to the beacon lights along the
Indian river.
In 1.-The good old days" these lights
were considered a great advantage
to navigation, and it was regretted
by our people generally that they
were discontinued. What further
made matters worse the pile tripods
on which the lights were mounted
have never been removed and some
of them stand yet a menace to navi-
cation, especially at night.
| heartily concur with you in your
efforts to have these lights reestab-
lished and made a permanent fixture
on our beautiful river.
This whole section is growing rap
idly; sooner or later a line of steam
er transportation will operate along
this coast inland waterway, and ev-
cry season will find hundreds of pow
er boats here for business and pleas
ure. These lights will not only be-
appreciated by us residents, but
must also be by hundreds of boat
men who come for the winter season.
With best wishes, yours truly
w. l.. HUGHLETT.
Mayor of Cocoa.
