PRESIDENT MoNRoE,s SON

Jacksonville, Fla, boasts that the
worlds oldest shipbuilder lives in
that city. He is Major Edward
James Monroe, 103 years old, who
is still possessed of all his faculties
and works in the shipyards as bolt
passer. Major Monroe was born in
Richmond, Va, July 4, 1915, the
youngest son of James Monroe, fifth
President of the United States. His
mother was the Presidents third
wife. His eldest sister died when
105 years old.
When America declared war on
Germany. Major Monroe was among
the first to offer his services, but
the fact that he had passed the GEN.
tury mark prevented him from DON
ming the olive drab uniform. Then
he applied for work at the ship
yards, and after proving that his eye
was clear and his brain active he
was given employment.
Although he has met many re-
verses and sorrows and has lost three
wives and eleven children. Major
Monroe says he always thinks of
others who are in a worse fix than
he and refuses to worry. Eat good
food and refrain from worrying are
two of his recipes for longevity

mated will bring to the State in
creased revenues of about two mill
non dollars yearly.

weighing less than 1000 pounds is
40 cents a horsepower. Heavier
commercial vehicles are divided into
seven classes and all fees are charged
on the weight of the chassis, with
the license running from $40 for cars
oetween 1000 and 1900 pounds to
$3.50 for trucks with chassis weigh
ing more than 10000 pounds. No

with local regulations permissible in
cities and towns limiting the speed
to fifteen miles an hour. Traffic reg
ulations are also permitted in cities.

trucks are specified, the lighter
trucks being allowed a speed of
twenty miles an hour while the
heaviest are permitted but 10 miles
an hour.
The regulations for trucks are as

Philadelphia made in the last few
weeks when units of the 2Sth and

When the first Philadelphians ar

to meet them except a few news
