GREETINGS OF
THE new YEAR
Presidents Brilliant Reception
at the White House.
OPENING OF SOCIAL SEASON
NEARLY 1000 PEOPLE MET
ROOSEVELT.

Washington, Jan. PERSISTENT and
hrs. Roosevelt inaugurated today the
official social season IN the nations
capital with a brilliant reception at
the White house. For more than a
hundred years it has been an unbroken
custom of presidents of the United
States 10 receive on New Years day
all officials of the government located
in Washington, and such citizens as
might care to pay their respects 10 the
nations chief magistrate. In addition
TO citizens Of the United States, MEM
bers OF the diplomatic corps at Wash
ington embrace the opportunity per-
s0naly TO extend to the president their
good wishes and the greetings Of their
governments.
The reception Of the president on New
Years is thoroughly democratic. That
of today was notably 50. No distinc-
tons of race or class were made, eX-
cept such as were rendered necessary
sons, rich or poor with or without
rank, were given a gracious greeting
by the president and Mrs. Roosevelt
Beautiful Decorations.
The interior of the White house was
never more beautiful than today. The
mansion glowed WITH electric lights
and floral decorations We're disposed
about the corridors and pariors- Rare
palms, ported plants and exquisite cut
flowers were arranged effectively IN
every available space. Great Tectan-
gular urns, banked to the edges with
dwarf palms and holly were placed be-
tween the main corridor and the vesti-
bule, forming a fitting background for
the gorgeous new uniforms of the Ma
rine band, sixty pieces strong, which
was seated in the yeslibule. The
band furnished music throughout the
reception, under the baton of the COM
mander. Lieut.. Santelmann. In the
red, blue and green panors the d0mi-
nant decOra tons were vases Of cut
flowers, chiefly lilies Of the valley,
roses and flaming pOinseIta blossoms.
For the children of the president and
Mrs. Roosevelt it was a memorable oc-
casion. They were here there and ev-
erywheTe about the mansion. having
always a merry word for their guests
and deep interest in all the arrange
nlents.
The reception was concluded at 2:10
O'Clock, all citizens in line by that tire
having been afforded an opportunity
to greet the president. Mrs. Roosevelt
and the ladies Of the cabinet stood IN
the receiving line until 1;40. when they
were escorted by Major McCawley TO
the private apartments Of the man
sion.

 'The battle, if battle 1t may be called. was largely between Mir. Loree, supreme executive head of the Rock Island system, and MT.
