the storm was not accompanied by any
great inconvenience

Christmas in no different manner from
that of thousands of others. Gifts to all
members of the family were in profusion.
Charlie. the youngest member of the
Presidents household, was the busiest
person at the White House. The gifts
which rewarded his early and rapid dash
for his stocking today were numerous and
as varied as his childish tastes.
Bob Taft Not Forgotten.
Robert Taft and Miss Helen were both
at home. The President spent the greater
part of his day surrounded by his family.
There were no formalities.
Later in the day the President went to
the executive offices and put In some
time with official duties. He evidently
did not consider it Dissertation OF the
holiday to dispose OF some accumulated
work.

the day at their home in Utica ram

the Italian cruiser Etruria, which has
been anchored in the Potomac for the
past few weeks.
The noisy and demonstrative celebration
of Christmas eve and Christmas day,
which has heretofore been feature or
the event at the National Capital, was
missing this year. Strict police prohibit
tons against tumuh and indecorous con-
duct in general were rigidly enforced.
While merriment was high on all hands,
there WAS but now and then the faint toot
of a horn and the shout of an occasional
reyefer to remind the older residents OF
other Christmases.
