Clearwater Beach, as a Florida spa, has no equal. The beach itself comprises a long, somewhat narrow key, with the bathing strip facing the blue-green Gulf of Mexico on the west and Clearwater Bay on the east. On this island are all the attractions required for the perfect seaside vacation, including bathing pavilions, spacious hotels, a modernistic beach clubhouse, the clubhouse and boat slips of the Clearwater Yacht Club, and broad winding boulevards lined with homes and apartments. On the north end of the island is located the exclusive Carlouel residential sec- tion, with its own Carlouel Club, tennis courts and boat slips.


On the mainland, in the City Park, are located excellent facilities for lawn bowling, shuffleboard and horseshoe-pitching. Individual clubs have been organized for these games, each having its own clubhouse where card parties and other social activities are participated in by the members and their friends.


Four splendid 18-hole golf courses are located within a four-mile

radius of Clearwater. The 18-hole course of the Clearwater Country Club is one of the sportiest in the country and is open the year around. Those visiting here find this course more popular each season. A magnificent clubhouse, with artistic furnishings and commodious shower and locker rooms for both ladies and gentlemen, is available. The grass greens are large and scientifically designed and located. The fairways are just nar- row enough to be interesting, stretching over rolling territory and natu- ral hazards. It is a Herbert Strong layout.


Visitors to Clearwater find a community alive to its possibilities and sparked by an aggressive Chamber of Commerce. The service clubs of the city include Rotary, Kiwanis, Lions, Optimist, Pilot and Exchange, each meeting weekly. Veterans' organizations comprise the Turner-Bran- don Post of the American Legion; Clearwater Chapter of Disabled Ameri- can Veterans, Old Fort Harrison Post of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Clearwater Camp No. 40 of the United Spanish War Veterans, Marine Corps League and Retired Officers Club.


On the cultural side, Clearwater has one of the finest public libraries in Florida, that began 40 years ago with a small collection housed in one room over a downtown bank, and today has 50, 000 volumes. The library building on North Osceola Ave. and Sunset Court was presented to the community by Andrew Carnegie in 1916 and was enlarged in 1938. The library is open each week day from 9 A. M. to 8 P. M. except Wednes- days, when it closes at 5 P. M. in winter months and 12:30 P. M. in sum- mer months. In addition to the excellent library, there is the Clearwater Art Museum, which is located in the Chamber of Commerce Building. This is one of the most active groups in the city. An average of 17 exhi- bits are shown during the winter season, with an approximate attendance of 21, 000 visitors.


The above, together with the Tuesday Morning Music Club, Little Theatre, and various women's clubs, afford both visitors and residents, activities with a wide range of interest.


Clearwater and Pinellas County rank second in the state in the pro- duction of grapefruit, and fourth in all other citrus. Some of the finest groves in the land are located just outside the city limits, and Clearwater is the marketing center in the county for this crop.

Don't Contribute to Counterfeiters KNOW YOUR MONEY!


Don't Be Fooled by Forgers KNOW YOUR ENDORSERS!


The Government never redeems counterfeit money!


1. KNOW YOUR MONEY! Study the bills you receive so as to become familiar with the workmanship on them, especially in the por- traits.


2. COMPARE a suspected bill with a genuine of the same type and denomination. Observe these things:


PORTRAIT Counterfeit-Dull, smudgy, or unnaturally white, scratchy; oval background is dark, lines irregular and broken. Portrait merges into the background.


Genuine-Stands out distinctly from the oval back- ground. Eyes appear lifelike. Back- ground is a fine screen of regular lines.


COLORED SEAL


Counterfeit-Saw-tooth points around rim are usu- ally uneven, broken off.


Genuine-Saw-tooth points around rim are even and sharp.


SERIAL NUMBERS


Counterfeit-Poorly printed, badly spaced, uneven in appearance.


Genuine -- Figures firmly and evenly printed, well spaced.


PAPER Counterfeit-Generally has no silk threads, but these may be imitated by very small red and blue ink lines.


Genuine -- Printed on distinctive paper in which very small red and blue silk threads are scat- tered. The silk threads are not always noticeable on bills that are badly soiled or worn.


3. RUBBING a bill on a piece of paper will not prove it is genuine or counterfeit; ink can be rubbed from good bills as well as bad ones.


4. CONSULT an experienced money-handler or police officer to make sure, if you are still in doubt, whether a bill is genuine or coun- terfeit.


5. REMEMBER, NOT ALL STRANGERS ARE COUNTER- FEITERS, BUT ALL COUNTERFEITERS ARE LIKELY TO BE STRANGERS.


This Information Is reprinted from the U. S. Secret Service 32-page booklet, "KNOW YOUR MONEY", which tells how to detect counterfeit coins and bills and how to guard against losses from forged Government checks. Copies may be purchased for 10c each, or $7.50 per 100, from the Superintendent of Docu- ments, Government Printing Office, Washington, D. C.

IN ADDITION to names and addresses, your City Direc- tory contains much detailed information concerning the people of your community. In order to list this information certain symbols and designations have been developed which enable important statistics to be compressed into the smallest possible space. You will receive far greater benefits from your City Directory if you familiarize yourself with the symbols and what they stand for.


In checking credit applications, in conducting direct mail advertising programs, in planning sales campaigns, in build- ing prospect lines, and in scores of other ways your City Directory will prove of invaluable assistance.
