Anniversary Of Light
House Service Observed

luminant and then again the
latest type developed, two flash
ing electric lights which are now
used for what the eight-day light
formerly was. These electric
lights, said Superintendent w. w.
Demeritt, operate many months
without any attention. There are
no longer any kerosene burning
lights in the Seventh District.
Spacious corridors and exhibit
space with the many pot plants
in symmetrical formation with
the many lights in operation,
presents an especially attractive
appearance at night. The exhibit
as we'll as the building reflects
credit on both the former Light
house Service and the Coast
Guard. 1t is not believed there
is more suitable building in the
service for its intended purpose.
The building will be opened
throughout the week from z in
the morning until IL o'clock at
night, and yesterday there were
more than 125 people who visited
the building and the display, and
signed the register, besides the
many who visited and failed to
sign.

head and Front streets, presents
an unusually attractive appear
ance this week in observance of
the 150th anniversary of the
Lighthouse Service. The build
ing is ordinarily an outstanding
point of interest to visitors to
the city, for aside from its sub
stantial type of architecture and
its excellent appearance, it houses
one of the finest marine exhibits
in the country, specializing in
ancient and modern lighthouse
equipment, types of aids to navi-
cation as found throughout the
United States and island posses
sions.
The approach to the building
is imposing. On one side is found
the American Flag and on the
other the Coast Guard Service
Flag. Across the front of the
building may be seen obsolete
and modern lights in operation.

PROPERTY SALES
| YESTERDAY WERE
GREAT SURPRISE
FIFTY PARCELS WE'RE PUR-
CHASED BY PRIVATE PAR
TIES IN DELINQUENT PRO-
cEEDINGs

County Tax Collector Frank
Ladd was the most surprised
man in the city of Key West yes
'terday when he began the sale of
property, whose owners had al
lowed the taxes to become de-
linquent, and found a large group
awaiting the opening of the sale.
The sale began at the legal
hour of noon and continued until
a o'clock and out of the 600
pieces which We're delinquent
were some very valuable hold
'ings, many of which were sold,
comprising valuable properties in
the city of Key West, on the
Florida Keys and on the main
land section of Monroe county.
Mr.. Laid told The Citizen this
morning that there were a num-
Der of delinquent taxpayers who
were thankful to The Citizen for
the notices which have been pub
Ilished on four occasions during
the past few weeks, calling the
attention of taxpayers to the
fact that their properties were
being advertised as delinquent.
However there were number
of them who paid no attention to
the notices, or failed to read
them, and now they will be
forced to pay those who have
purchased the property and who
will receive tax certificates, and
at an increased expenditure, to
recover.
No very large amounts were
in the purchases, Mr..
Ladd said, but the so pieces
which were sold, will need the
expenditure of good deal more
money to recover the property
than would have cost the owners
if they had paid attention to the
articles which were published as
information and nothing else.
The so pieces which were pur-
chased by private parties and for
which tax certificates will be is
sued, must be redeemed through
the purchasers. The rest of the
advertised parcels became the
property of the state, and must
be redeemed from that source.

Junk Junked, Junks
Junket In Red Sea

OMAHA, Neb.. Aug. 8.-His
Chinese junk had to be junked in
the middle of the Red Sea, miles
and miles from nowhere, but
Rex Purcell, So, of Omaha, lived
to tell of it.
Purcell said he built his junk
at Hong Kong, next to a dock
where Adventurer Richard Halli-
burton, later lost at sea, was
building a similar vessel.
Last New Years eve the Onna-
han, a Philippine islands airplane
pilot when not barging around
suncharted oceans, started out
with friends for the New York
worlds fair.
But a typhoon hit, and they
had to put in at a remote island
for refitting. Although they
could not recaulk weakened
seams, they started out again. A
second storm struck. and they
had to abandon ship in the Red
Sea.
A Greek vessel picked them
up. and Purcell came on home
via commercial liners.
Recalling his own 77-day ex-
.perience on the junk, Purcell
said he thought Halliburton
persisted in typhoon which was
accompanied by a huge tidal
wave.

the benefit of the public, but will
not maintain an office in Florida

business.
Mr.. Cannon further states that
for portion of the time, he too.
will be in attendance in Washing
ton, as he believes the best work
can be done when the House of

In view of these facts, Con-
gresham Cannon requests that
