3 i6 IN LOWER FLORIDA WILDS 



pumped down as into an ordinary diving suit. 

 Through a glass plate one can get an excellent 

 view about. With this aid one comes into the 

 closest contact with the reef and its marvelous 

 life; it was like entering into a new world like 

 visiting another planet. 



My visit to Ajax is an unforgettable experience. 

 It was my first sight of the marine knolls crowned 

 with "gardens" of corals and sea fans, with 

 sponges, hydroids, and algae all seen through a 

 clear luminous medium. What a riot of beauty! 

 What a swarming of life! What hynotic motion 

 of fish and swaying of vegetation. It is one of 

 my most precious memories.
