 Shops Systematically.
 The president is very fond of giv- ing books and much of his shopping time has been spent in rum1naging the shelves of the booksellers. In each book he gives he writes a suitable sentiment on the fIyIeaf, thus giving the volume something of an historical value. The president also is fond of giving trinkets of jeWelry, and always makes his own selections. When he starts on tour of the shops, he goes just like any other holiday buyer, armed with a long list of names and probable purchases.
 Outside of the large circle of rela- tives and friends, the president gives presents to the various White house clerks
 He also presents turkeys to the marEied employees about the White house, the executive offices and the grounds. There are 102 of these en- pIOyes and this item alone requires an outlay of from $35O to $400. To the three secret service men who are as
