not going to the White House. and
there is genuine JOY among the thou
sands of Jerseyites who look upon sam
as an ever-faithful friend. The negro
messenger has been DOING some hard
thinking since he received an anec-

few DAYS ago asking that he come to
the White House He has consulted
his old cronies here. and with one aC-
cord they pleaded with him not to go.
And Sam isn't going. partly on this ac-
count and partly because II would mean
the sacrifice Of a prosperous antique
business that Sam owns.
Sam is fond Of the President and the
President is fond Of Sam. He is also 1
great favorite with Mrs. Wilson and

greatest reluctance that he made up his
mind that he had better stay in Trcn-
ton.
