Unworricd at Fate

Year’s, hi- task is probably the most wearisome of his entire year, physically at least. This is the occasion of the public reception, when several thousand of Washingtonians, of all walks of life, come to the White House to give the President a holiday greeting. People line up at the great white residence on Pennsylvania Avenue all during the ihy, starting as early as if they were trying to bu> world’s series ticket- in order to be the first in line. In the old days, this occasion was much used by persons seeking jobs in the government, but nowadays tbe handshaking goes so fast that there is no time except for a hurried greeting. For the exciting season most of the members of Congrc-s return to their homes for the cheer of the family fireside. But for a few Congressmen from the extreme West, the journey is too long, and their holidays are spent in their makeshift homes here.
