Summary "The Chautauquan, Vol. 04, July 1884, No. 10" is a monthly magazine devoted to the promotion of true culture, written in the late 19th century.

The issue opens with a discussion that reflects on American culture, government, and history, specifically focusing on the significance of the White House and the lives of those who inhabit it. The opening of this volume presents an insightful exploration of the White House's history and the changing dynamics of its social and political functions. The author narrates the origins of the name 'White House' and vividly describes the mansion's architecture and decor, delving into the social etiquette surrounding presidential receptions.
