From the Clearwater Sun:

From the Clearwater Sun:
. Hon. S. Phillips, State Rural School
Inspector, who spent three days in Pr
nellas county inspecting six schools,
has made the following report to State
Superintendent Sheats of the condi-
ton and standing of these schools:
Based on 100 per cent, the school
at Ozona was given rating of SO
per cent.
Safety Harbor, 81 per cent.
Seminole, SO per cent.
Wall Springs, 95 per cent.
Heidleburg Heights, 90 per cent.
Curlew, 80 per cent.
The report covers a good many
points, among them being the per-
centage of attendance to enrolment;
the standard of the teacher in regard
to certificate held; the classification of
the pupils; the character of the recita
tons and the daily work done; the 10
cation and surroundings of the build
ing; character and condition of the
building with regard to its water sup
ply and sanitary conditions; the sys-
tenn of ventilation, and in fact almost
every point that would be considered
in classifying the schools.
A rating of 80 or more, puts a
school in class A, so that out of six
schools inspected, six were placed in
the highest class.
Mr.. Phillips made the statement
while in Clearwater that while Pinel-
las county had only one rival In the
character and class of its school build
ing (Dade county, that it had no rival
whatever in the system and work of
the schools.

Pearl Necklace Vain
Referee Charges Carelessness at

Johnston s Effects

All the efforts thus far of Mrs. Anna
A. Johnston to find a pearl necklace
valued at sl0,000 which was be-
questhed her by her daughter in-law
Mrs: Mary Vaudeville Johnston, widow
OF Edward w. S. Johnston, thus far
have been unavailing. That, too. not
withstanding the fact that Surrogate
Fowler appointed Thomas Ludlow
Chrystie as referee to take testimony
which might disclose the Whereabouts
OF the missing necklace.
IN ms report. filed yesterday, Ref
cree Chryste failed to throw any light
on the missing necklace. He discov-
cred, however. that there was careless
ness on the part of those who conduct
ed an auction sale of the effects Of
Mrs. Johnston after her death. in 1914.
The search for the necklace began
wher the executors Of the will failed
to find it. Since that time a steady
search has been maintained.
