The war scare is about over SO far as it
| hindered summer plans among the resi-
Dental families, whose presence in Wash
| ington. while always acceptable, is not by
any means necessary. Those who have
summer homes to go to, and it is astonish-
| ing how large this number increases from

domiciles may be, are getting ready to go
| to them or in many cases are already es-
| tablished for the heated term. Washing
| tonians are pretty well scattered every
! summer, but as the contingent going
abroad is very small at present, it will prob
| ably be easier to reach them this year than
| heretofore. Offcialdom is not quite as
| lucky. For the most of its prominent MEM
bers there is every reason to presume that
| they will be able to speak advisedly OF the
merits of the capital as a summer resort.
