Sec- recommended to the 1941 Legis- | lature by the Florida Waterways Congress as a result of plans | made at the annual meeting of! the Congress held here last} week. Under the present law this tax now goes to the high- ways. Another objective of the Con-| gress outlined by Walter F. Coachman, Jr., who was re-elect- ed chairman, is the improvement of waterways through projects designed to take care of unem- ployed labor after defense proj- ects have been, completed. Top honors in the moth and free-for-all sailing regatta were won by Miss Aleta Van Sant of Daytona Beach, national sailing champion. The Congress chose Sarasota as its 1941 conference city. P.-T. A. Renders Program Tuesday The Division Street School P.-T. A, held its regular meeting Tues- day afternoon. The meeting was opened with the singing of Am- erica followed by the Lord’s Prayer and Flag Salute. The association celebrated | Founders’ Day by an appropriate program. Members of the P.-T.

John Williams Sang two numbers, “I Am An Am- erican,” and “When You Wish Upon a Star.” A past president’s pin was pre- sented to Mrs. Anna Shannahan. Refreshments were served at the end of the meeting. A count of parents present showed that Mrs, Amelia Cabot’s class had the highest percentage and Miss Evelyn McCaskill, the greatest number for the inter- mediate department, In the pri- mary department Mrs. Eulalie Jones’ class rated highest in per- centage while Misses Frances; Cochran’s and Marjorie Roberts’ classes:tied in greatest number.
