BY SALLIE V. H. PICKETT.

Not in years, If ever before, has the
White House put on such a gay and
brilliant celebration as this season,
welt are surrounded by friends and
relatives until the living portion of the
mansion fairly bulges. Nor has it
ever been lovelier in its decoration of
Christmas. trees, Christmas greens and
reds and myriads of gay colored pack
ages of every known dimensions. Mrs.
Henrietta Nesbitt, the neighbor OF the
President and Mrs. Roosevelt at their
Hyde Park home and. now house
keeper at the White House, has all
her menus made up for a week OF
feasting, with a care to catering to
the appetites of the younger members
of the family, who dote upon her
cookies and like goodies. In this won-
derful setting. there will be dining,
dancing and visiting until ones head
fairly swims to think of it, and yet it
is only an enlarged scene in the life
Of a simple American family.
With a wise thought the municipal
Christmas tree will be lighted in
Lafayette Square to be seen from all
the north front windows of the Presi-
dents house and one can picture him
taking a few quiet moments now and
then 20 look over the way at its
sparkling lights. President and Mrs.
Coolidge lighted the first growing
Christmas tree, planted in Treasury
Square, a real New England spruce
being transplanted there for the pur-
pose, and as President and Mrs. HOO
yer continued the custom there Is a
hope that it may continue as have
SO many other beautiful traditions Of
the season.
Nor is it just this one tree that
stands ablaze for the Christmas sea-
son, for all over the city the gay
lights glow before private homes, in
public parks and HARDLY institutions
of various kinds, One OF the hand
soonest trees always glitters from the
heights of Mount Alto Hospital for
invalid war patients and from hum
dredS of door yards gleam the decora-
tions. Christmas music adds its charm
and In no other city in the country
is so diversified a Christmas program
possible. The Latin America embassies
and legations carry out their quaint
customs and from all parts of the
world the birth of Christ is celebrated.
The Orientals in the city, for the
most, adopt the American custom and
as in former years the Chinese Lega-
ton will put on real United States
program.
Christmas night the gay young
folk who have dined enfamile or with
friends attended teas and cocktail
parties and what not will meet in the
Mayfiower ball. room for one of the
most delightful and refreshing balls
Of the Winter, when the cadets and
midshipmen and their girl partners
dance until supper time at midnight
an6 again until almost dawn. This
annual dance has a nice touch Of in

NEW YORK, July IS Q.N.S0 .
The cotton market gave q credit

was insufficient to relieve drought
conditions to any marked ex-
tent. In addition, temperatures

hedge and Southern selling.
The weekly Government weather
report stated that the week was
moderately warm in the South

confined largely to relatively

Renewed reactionary tendencies
made their appearance on the
curb market today in sympathy
with the fresh outbreak Of selling
on the "big board"
After opening highly irregular,
the list showed some signs Of firm
ing. There was no follow through,
however, and the weakness in
"big board" stocks was quickly
communicated to the curb market.
Electric Bond and Share, after
opening higher, lost its gain and
sold down to its previous closing
levels. Other utility shares were
in similar position.
Fisk Rubber was an indie
pendent strong spot reflecting the
favorable earnings report.
The mining shares came under
pressure after early firmness and
gains in Pioneer Gold and Silver
King Mining were wiped out for
the most part.
