Hey. Skinnay! Hey. skinnayM
Had an auto ride with President
Wilson, Yes, we did"
Three kids, just out OF their
swimin' hole in Rock Creek Park
probably gleefully yelled this to
members of their gang yesterday
afternoon after they had ridden
around the park and through the
adjacent country for more than half
hour with the President and Mrs.
Wilson.
The fact is that the Chief Execu-
tive spied the youngsters as the
big White House touring car swept
through the drive and was i'm
pressed by their manliness and
seeming admiration, as they stood
with caps off waving their wet
bathing suits when he passed them.
He directed that the car be stopped
and he beckoned the youngsters.
Somewhat reluctantly the trio
clsmbered into the automobile with
their garments still dripping. The
President asked them many ques-
tions and appeared greatly to enjoy
their company-as much as the
boys enjoyed the treat.
The lads were taken to the vicin-
ity OF their homes and a more over
joyed and proud trio would be hard
to imagine.
