Now that Christmas has come and gone, the President and Mrs. Hoover are turning their attention to the New Year reception, which has been s ‘White House tradition since the earliest days of the Republic. This most popular of White House receptions, which was begun by George and Martha Washington when the Executive Mansion was in New York, but which was not held on a really democratic scale until the Madisons took up their residence in the White House, is expected to draw many per- sons to the President's home this year. No Changes in Procedure. So far as is known, there will be no changes in the customary manner of holding this reception. Commencing at 11 o’clock on the morning of January 1, the President and Mrs. Hoover will station themselves in the famous blue room, which has been used as the formal receiving room in the White House for many years, and during the remainder of the forenoon will receive members of the cabinet, the justices of the Supreme Court, Senators and Rep- resentatives and other prominent officers of the Government, including the rank- ing officers of the Army, Navy and Ma- rine Corps, and the members of the diplomatic corps. At 1 o'clock in the afternoon the doors will be flung wide and the public will be permitted to pass along the line and shake hands with and extend greetings to the President and First Lady. No time limit has been placed on this pub- lic part of the New Year reception. The callers will be received just so long as the line continues, regardless of the lateness of the hour. Shook Hands With 4,471 Persons. It was nearly 4 o'clock in the after- noon when the last person in the public line last year had passed along the re- ceiving line. According to official fig- ures, the President and Mrs. Hoover shook hands with 4,471 on that day, their first New Year reception. That number was 1,400 in excess of the total number of persons who passed along the line in 1928, President and Mrs. Coolidge’s last New Year reception. In 1929 they were spending the holidays at Sapelo lslmd Ga., and the reception was aba.ndon 50 HORSES A ASSEMBLED FOR YULETIDE “PARTY” Nosebag of Feed in Treat for Each “Guest” From Augusta, Ga., Humane Officer. By the Associated Press. AUGUSTA, Ga., December 26.—Fifty horses were invited guests at high noon yesterday at a Christmas tree party and George R. Sousa, Augusta’s humane officer, sent out invitations several days ago to the horses of the community to come and enjoy Christmas party. Fifty accepted. It was a self-service affair, each horse taking his own nose filled with oats, corn and hay from the tree. It was pretty tough not to be permitted to nibble from the tree, but guests stood the ordeal fairly well. Many of the owners who brought their animals to the luncheon them- selves had found the matter of eat recently a problem, but other pro- visions had been made for them and they, too, enjoyed a full meal, with all the holiday fixin HAND IS FRACTURED Policeman Weatherhead Hurt in Fight While® Making Arrest.

YULE TREES ABLAZE Firemen Save Three Holiday Dis- plays From Severe Damage. ‘Through speedy work, District fire- men extinguished three Christmas tree fires with little damage yesterday and last night when they caught fire at the height of the Yuletide celebrations in their respective households.

Aside from dampening the ardor of the owners of the trees, the three fires caused no damage. RABBI SIMON TO PREACH Announces Special Sermon at He- | brew Temple Tonight.
