New York is a city of three
thousand houses of worship.
Most of the temples schedule
special Hannukah services,
while the churches have Christ-
mas events. The afternoon
Christmas Eve service at the
Chapel of the Intercession is
followed by a procession of
children carrying lighted lan-
terns to the grave of Clement
C. Moore, author of the poem,
“A Visit From St. Nicholas."
The blessing of the manger
takes place Christmas Eve at
the Cathedral of St. John the
Divine. There are Christmas
carillon concerts at Riverside
Church.

The first Christmas in the
White House was celebrated by
President and Mrs. John Ad-
ams, in the year 1800. The
mansion was incomplete, the
walls were still damp and the
rooms were cold. Shivering
guests remained only briefly.
Five years later, things were
merrier and Thomas Jefferson
entertained guests with lively
violin tunes. Young relatives of
Andrew Jackson made Christ-
mas of 1835 memorable for him
when they filled his stocking
with a corncob pipe, tobacco
and trinkets. e
Young Tad Lincoln invited
street children into the White
House to share his Christmas
dinner and his father allowed
them to stay. Benjamin Har-
rison ordered the first Christ-
mas tree set up in the White
House. Calvin Coolidge started
the practice of lighting a deco-
rated spruce on the White
House lawn as the Nation’s
Christmas tree. Franklin D.
Roosevelt and his large family
celebrated Christmas with a
series of White House parties
and gatherings for family,
friends and staff. Mrs. Eisen-
hower usually wore a bright-red
dress while presiding at holiday
parties for her grandchildren.
