Aquatic Expert
To Be Director
OF Water Safety

Plans are underway for wa
ter safety instructors training
course which will be given in Key
West June 25-July 6, according to
u. w. Sellers, chairman of the
Water Safety committee. This
course will be conducted by Har-
|ry A. Kenning, field representa-
tive, who is attached to the south
eastern area of the Red Cross.
Mr.. Kenning is a veteran in this
work, Mr.. Sellers says.
After conducting classes in
life-saving for Red Cross chapters
at large Atlantic coast bathing
beaches, Mr.. Kenning joined the
American Red Cross disaster re-
lief unit which was sent to Puerto
Rico after the hurricane of Sep
TENDER, 1923. At the close of the
relief work, he was assigned to
the task of arousing interest in
Red Cross water safety in Puerto
Rico and the. neighboring Virgin
Islands.
He also instructed police
men. firemen. railway en-
ploYes and electric light and
telephone workers of San Juan
in first aid to the injured. He
made a subsequent tour of SER
vice to these islands in the
early months of 1884.
'He has served for a number of
seasons as director of the Nation
al Aquatic school held annually
by the Red Cross at Brevard,
N. c." Mr. Sellers said, and add
ed:
'Mr. Kenning first became in
terested professionally in swim
ming and life-saving as instruc-
tor for the Boy Scouts of Ger
mantown, Pa. So successful was
he in this work that officials ask
ed him to conduct the first Boy
Scout swimming meet to be held in
Philadelphia, which enjoyed such
success that it has been an an
nual event ever since. He soon
became. an outstanding figure in
swimming, life-saving and water
safety in Philadelphia. qualifying
as a Red Cross hfe-saving exam
iner.'
He conducted the most ex-
tensive Learn to Swim Week"
in Philsdelphia's history. This
attracted the attention of the
Red Cross and he was asked
10 become a member of the
first aid and life saving field
staff. He is sound and en-
thusiastic teacher of both first
aid and water safety" Mr.. Sell
lers stated.
To be eligible for enrolment,
candidates must be 10 years of
age, good swimmers, and possess
potential teaching ability. Those
interested in enrolment should
get in touch with one Of the fol-
lowing committee members or
call the local chapter: Mr.. Sell
lers, D. A. Tyus, Dwight Hunter,
w. j. Moehrke or J. c. Delaney.

Navigable Waters
Dredging Permits
Sought By Many

Officials in the office of the
United States district engineer
in Jacksonville, have informed
The Citizen that the engineers
have received many applications
for permits to dredge in navi-
gable waters to obtain material
to fill in low land for real estate
development or to build islands
Since some applications be-
come matters of public contro-
versary, the engineering office
has issued the following dealing
with the matter:
1.-THE bays and lagoons behind
the barrier beaches of the State
of Florida constitute one of the
states greatest natural assets.
The growth of such communities
as Daytona, Palm Beach, Miami,
Sarasota and Clearwater has
been greatly influenced by the
presence of these bodies of
sheltered water.
During the growth of these
and other communities. the
material in the bottom of these
bays has been. in many in
stances. dredged and used TO
convert the bordering man
grove swamps into residential
properly. and similar opera
lions have resulted in the crea-
ton of attractive islands in
these waters.
The work of this nature has,
in general, been of great bene-
fit to the community. 1t has re-
suited in the creation of some of
the finest and most attractive
residential property in the Unit
ed States. Some mistakes may
have been made and construction
has probably been done which
has produced some unfavorable
results. Nevertheless, the net
balance is decidedly beneficial.
1t is obvious that the filling in
of the shores and the building of
islands in the Intracostal waters
can easily be carried to an I'M
desirable point. where the natur-
ally beautiful open bays would
be converted entirely into groups
of islands separated by narrow
canals. The state and its subdivi-
sions have full authority, if they
desire, to prevent such develop
ment, provided only that their
actions do not interfere with the
actions of the United States In
regulating commerce and naviga-
ton. nor conflict with the con-
stitutional provisions protecting
property rights.
