Christmas at the White House in Taft Era Washington
The piece describes a holiday mood in Washington with Christmas trees, holly, and mistletoe in markets. It notes President Taft, his children, and family customs at the White House, contrasted with Roosevelt eras and Pinchot’s forestry views. Foreign diplomats’ families add festive displays, while church services and charity gifts color the season.
