JOHN WHITE, a man of many talents, and who is known far and wide as the ‘‘Clam Chowder King,” is chalking up a record again on Sunday, the 17th, which marks his 25 years of employ ment with the genial hosts of the First Colony Inn of Nags Head, Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius Payne Midgett. Now to most of us, it impresses us as a record indeed when any- j body stays on a job 25 years, un- | less it be to stick with the I Government in one capacity or j another in order to get a pension. I This man evidently likes his work, and likes the folks he I works for. It must take rare gifts indeed I to heap a mati c-n tne job 21 vears, whether ha be whit? or Hack in the:? times. Os rou s? th? Midgetts are rar? peopL, for i they are’exceptionally gifted in the art of making friends. And John evidently knows a good thing, for there are many ad-j vantages in working with the j Midgetts, who out of their sea son are off gadding about and visiting and enjoying life as few people do. This of course gives John a lot of time for leisurely living, and fraternizing with his colored friends. John knows all about the Mid getts. He knows they always go to Elizabeth City to spend New Years. This has been an old cus tom. He knows they usually go somewhere else for a long trip in the winter, and before they got the hotel, they travelled a lot in the summer. He can figure they will go to Florida, Cuba, Ber muda, New England, or the West Coast, although they have about exhausted all the places to visit, unless they go abroad. Is used to be they would visit on Long Is land, or Albany, New York, but as old friends died, they began to go elsewhere. John must be a mighty good man to have around, and the Midgetts must be mighty good people to work for. We think 25 years is quite a record. It’s a record anyway when people can get along around each other for 25 years.
