JOHN ]. WHITE, leading COL
ored citizen of Roanoke Island,
and known far and wide as the
"Clam Chowder King of the Outer
Banks" whose recipes have been
requested and are used across the
nation, on Saturday the 18th will
round out 80 consecutive years on
one job, thereby hanging up quite
record, and which he is proud
of. In 1929 he began work as a
cook with the Sand Ridge Lodge
at Rodanthe, operated by Mr.. and
Mrs. c. P. MIDGET, and continued
working with this popular couple
after they left the Lodge and
bought the First Colony Inn at
Mays Head. A great loss has been
sustained in the death of Mrs.
Midget last year, but John White
is still on the job, looking after
Mr.. Midgett's needs. He has been
identified with the fine reputation
for hospitality that has been a
part of those establishments which
were managed and graced by the
Midgetts. 1t is no small thing,
this staying on one job for 80
years, which speaks for itself for
both the employee and employer.
He was made especially happy
this week by substantial present
from his employer, Cornelius P.
Midget. In fact, he has been given
a present in all recent years on
every anniversary of his service
with the Midget family.
John J. White has always been
a prominent man in the colored
settlement of Manteo, where he
maintains his home. He is still a
leader in the community, is in
vigorous health and spirits land
visits about the town often, he has
many friends among the leading
people of both races.

of all approved bills for his per-
Sonal files.
We have set up new system
of monthly reports by the county
accountant, which enables every
board member and every county
department head to know the ex-
act financial condition of each de-
partment of government month by
month. In my opinion this is one
of the most important and far
reaching steps ever taken in Dare
County government, and l intend
to discuss it in detail in a later
column.
In addition to the above we have
made a careful study of the &C
tivities of several county depart
ments, and have scheduled similar
studies by the full board for each
of the remaining departments;
have taken steps toward establish
ment of a county civil defense
system, mosquito control pfoj-
ect, an erosion control and stream
clearance project, and streamlin-
ing of several established county
functions. We have protested pro-
posed increases in extended COW
erage insurance rates, and inves-
tigated the possibility of establish
ing rural fire districts as means
both of securing improved fire pro-
lection, and getting reduction in
fire insurance rates.
This does not by any means
cover all of the work of the Board
up to this time. We have had two
regular meetings and two special
meetings, in an attempt to become
familiar with as many phases Of
county government as possible,
and all five members have been
present at each of the four meet
ihgs. We have scheduled another
special meeting later this month
to investigate two more county de-
partments, and tentative plans
have been made for the new mem
bers to attend the school for new
ly elected County Commissioners
conducted by the Institute of Gov
eminent in Chapel Hill in Feb
ruary. I'LL report on these and
other matters in future columns.
