When that genial, generous old gen- tleman with the flowing whiskers makes his Christmas eve calls on the Nation's officfal family he'll need a Col. Lindbergh to help him spot the scattered chimneys. About half of Washington's officials will be here; the others are fleeing to des to spend the holidays sident Coolidge will of course, but Viee Presi- | ¢ has gone to his home at | Evanston, 1ll. The cabinet is divided six and four, with the majority wait- ing here for Santa. With Congress howing itself out of the picture in favor of Santa Claus, | its members who live within easy dis- tance of the Capital are moving out to their homes. Curtis Staying Here. Senator Curtis, the Republ leader, is staving here, while Se Robinson, the Democratic leader undecided whether he would rem here or leave Sunday with the cor mittee named to attend the funeral of Senator Andrieus A. Jones of New Mexico. Speaker Longworth of the House and Mrs. Longworth will spend Chist- mas here for the, first time in three ars, their celebration revolving about baby Paulina. House Majority Leader Tilson will be at New iiaven, Conn., and Minority Leader Gariett will go 0 his home at Dresden, ‘Tenn. The eabinet members who will re- main here are Attorney General Sar- gent and Secretaries Kellogg, Jardine, Hoover and the two Davises. Mr. Sargent's family wil spend the holi- days in Vermont. Mellon Going to Pittsburgh. Secretary Mellon will open his Pitts- burgh home. to remain until a few days after Christmas, and Secretary Work has gone to Denver to visit his sons. Dr, Phillip Work and Robert B. H. Work. Secretary and Mrs. Wilbur will be with Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Paist at Wayne, Pa.: Mrs. Paist is Mr. Wilbur's sister. Postmaster General New and Mrs. New will be at their In- dianapolis home. The White House Christmas pro- m will be similar to that followed n previous years. Three trees will be lighted in the blue room, while the {usual community tree on the Ellipse south of the Treasury will be illumi- nated tomorrow night, when the Pres. ident presses a gold button. Carol singing exercises at the tree will be attended by Mr. and Mrs. Coolidge, and afterward the Interstate Com- merce Commission Choir will serenade the presidential family. HUNDREDS ‘OF GIFTS REACH WHITE HOUSE, NEARING NEW MARK (Continued from First Page,) House each day now, and on each succeeding trip their bundles are heavier and more numerous, The Christmgs presents for Presi- dents, as a general rule, are more useful in their nature than they are expensive. Articles of clothing, books ON HOLIDAY TRIPS | Half Expect to Be at Home THE EVENING will be at the usual hours—Christmas dinner being at 7 o'cock. . ‘The White House today took on all the genuine atmosphere of the Yule- tide scason. Throughout the rooms greens suggestive of the season were lv hung, and in the many ws of the old mansion and in of the executive office large aths were hung. Holly s not 1 in these decorations. Mre. Cool- i is opposed to the destruction of holly trees and for that reason does not permit this green to be used in the White House Christmas arrange- ment, Five Christmas trees have arrived at the White House, but they will not be put in position yet. It is under- stood that again three trees will be set up in the blue room, one in the library and the remaining one in the main hallway on the second floor. These detnils will be worked out with- in the next day by Mrs, Coolidge, to whom the President turns over this responsibilit John Coolidge Home. Mrs. Coolidge derives no end of en- joyment from this sort of thing. She has been doing it for years—long be- fore she and her husband ever had v idea of living in the White House. ohn Coolidge, who is home from Am- t for the holidays, always assists mother in the trimming of the Christmas trees, Mrs. Coolidge also does all the Christmas shopping for the family. The President gets his enjoyment in this respect by walking along the streets in the business section during the evening rush hour and stops fre- nluwmly to look into the show win- dows. Tomorrow morning Mrs. Coolidge will assist in the distribution of pres- ents at the Salvation Army headquar- ters, and at Keith's Theater when presents are distributed to children under the auspices of the Central Union Mission. The President is keeping busily en- gaged at his desk, although he has cut down materially in his business engagements. Christmas eve he will push the hutton Hluminating the com- tunity Christmas tree in Sherman Circle and later he and Mrs. Coolldge will listen to the singing of Christmas carols on the front portico by the glee club of the Interstate Commerce Com- mission and the assembled publi¢, and later in the evening will participate in the carol singing to be broadcast over the land by means of the radio. According to the present arrange ments there will be no house guests at the White House over Christmas, but it is understood that a few close friends will be guests at Christmas dinner, — HARRY A.

The practice has been to discourage the sending of very costly gifts to the Executive by other than persons very. intimate with the family. ‘Will Spend Quiet Day. ‘White House attaches while discuss- ing today the increase in the number of remembrances being recelved this year were at a loss to offer an expla- nation. One advanced the thought that probably Mr. Coolidge's decision to retire to private life at the expira- tion of his term many have been a contributing factor in this apparent thoughtfulness on the part of the public. It is thought also that the personal popularity of Mr. and Mrs. Coolidge throughout the country un- : | questionably had something to do .| with it As has been their custom, the Presi- dent and Mra. Coolidge will observe Christmas quietly, Aside from an ex- change of gifts in the library on the second floor Christmas morning and the attending of religious services, the daily routine of the White House will not be greatly altered.
