have operated in Miami for 10 years. Coming through the ’26 hurricane with no damage. Ask the Chamber of Commerce or any Miami Business Man about the Se-Bot-M Boat; Come with us, you will enjoy our 27 foot wide Se-Bot-M Boatride, and will never forget the wonders' we will show you on the Coral Reef. /^lORAL: What is Coral? Nearly a pure ealci-^ um carbonate. The Polyps, a little animal so small that a million would go in a lady’s thimble, are able to separate this calcium carbonate from the ocean water and deposit it in quantity enough to make great islands. A great part of the Florida peninsula is on the coral rock. The Pacific ocean, between the thirteenth parallel of latitude on each side of the Equator is a great nursery of Coral islands. Between Malabar and Madagascar there is a great Sea of Corals. An unbroken reef 350 miles long on the east coast of New Holland and between New Holland and New Guinea coral formations extend throughout a distance of 700 miles with no intervals exceeding 30 miles. The United States has no coral except the reef from Miami to Key West. The West Indies, Bermuda and the Mediterranean Sea have coral. Coral formations are among the oldest and the newest rocks that come under the notice of the geologist. Coral is found underlying the coal fields. Our lime and marble quarries were at one time Coral beds. The forms and hues built by the little animals of the sea are almost endless, imitating with striking exactness the plant life. They have done more for the world than all other animals combined. “The half was never told.” It’s wonderful; see it on the Florida reef. Cigars, Cigarettes, Soft Drinks, Coffee and Lunch can be had on board. Visitors Welcome - Come Aboard SE-BOT-M BOAT CO. W. L STILES, Capt. E. V. STILES, Mate F. I. STILES, Mgr.
