 Take n Holiday
 The present chief executive and his wife returned Tuesday after a most delightful holiday spent with Senator and Mrs. Joseph Frelinghuy- sen at Raritan. N. J. The President did not hold his usual cabinet mee.- ing on Tuesday, but received at 4 o'clock that afternoon Marshall Fa- yolle and other members of the mis- sion including no less a parsonage than Monsignor Landrieux of Rheims cathedral, sent by the government of France to Canada to convey the thanks of the French nation to Can ada for participation in the World war. The mission included about 24 distinguished Frenchmen and a num- Der of ladies. They were presented to the President by the French ann bassador, who was accompanied by Mime. Jusserand
 The President played golf several times last week at the Chevy Chase club, usually with a group of sen- ators Mrs. Harding has callers in- formally several afternoons.
 Recent week ends out of town, according to dame rumor, are only the first of series the Hardings are planning to make during the summer months. They are swamped with tempting invitations but no definite plans have been announced from the White House so one has to rely entirely on gossip, which claims
 
 visit from Mir. and Mrs. Harding about the first of August and that MT and Mrs. T.

Taylor's fine new golf course is mentioned as one of the special lures held out to the Pres ident. Bar Harbor also is hoping that it will entertain President and Mrs. Harding. It is taken for granted that Mir. and Mrs. Edward B. Mclean have asked Mir. and Mrs. Harding to visit them at their es- tate there, and the fact that the place is being prepared for the occu pancy of the owners at an early date is believed to indicate that the distinguished guests will accept the invitation. The Mclean children are now at Bar Harbor, where their mother will join them at an early date. MT. and Mrs. Mclean have

 The dinner was staged at Friend ship" the suburban home--one ot the many homes of MT. and Mrs. Mclean. It was the principal social event of the holiday, q distinguis sh d company enjoying the big house and lovely grounds after the heat of the city. The Secretary of State and Mrs. Hughes were also there. The party was double celebration, a combination or the birthday of the anniversary of the nation, and of the Vice President, who was 49 years old last Monday.
 Even though Washington has been suffering from unusual heat, and July is well inaugurated, the social calendar of the last seven days has been anything but blank. In addi- tion to the dinner which Mir. and Mrs. Mclean gave and the ambas- sador of Frances luncheon for Mar shal Fayolle, there were a number of other parties worthy of mention. The Secretary of War, John Weeks, was the guest of honor at 8 dinner which the retiring military attache of the Japanese embassy, Maj. Gen. Katzutsugo Inouye, gave Tuesday evening.

64LEPROSY
CASES CURED
Scourge Of Centuries To
Be Exterminated In 10
Years, Estimated

HONOLULU, July 26.-Use of the
new chaulmoogra oil specific as a
cure for leprosy has been 50 success
full at the Molokai island settlement
for lepers here that "a inmates of
Kalihi Hospital have been discharged
as completely cured.
Authorities say that probably with
in 10 years the territory will have
no further need of Molokai as leper
settlement; that settlements for lep-
rosy will be thing of the past, and
that leprosy itself may perhaps be I'M
known.
To Arthur L. Dean, president of
the University of Hawaii, goes the
credit for perfecting the leprosy cure.
Chattanooga oil long has been recog-
niZed as the standard specific for
leprOsy. It's one fault was that it had
to be administered as a whole, with
the result that the cure was slow and
often inefficient.
Doctor Dean has separated from
the bulk Of the oil that element that
combats the disease 1t is this element
in the pure state, that has been used
with such astounding results. The pro-
cess is by an sntermuscular injection
once q week and capsules adminis-
tered internally three times daily,
DR.. W. j. Goodhue, for Is years
resident physician at the Molokai set
Element, says that under the present
method of treatment IS per cent of
the chronic cases of leprosy at the
settlement will be turned out cured
within the next two years.
Many of the patients at Moiokai
however, never can recover as their
disease was foo far advanced before
the cure was discovered.
There are Sig patients at Molokai
and Of these IT'S have been under
treatment with the Dean cure for five
moths.
TIE ehaulmoogra supply is entirely
inadequate and each day four to five
patieHts, who beg with tears in their
eyes for treatment, are compelled TO
turn sway.
Manufacture Of the cure is being
carried on now in only a small way
one Of the main handicaps being the
inability to obtain sufficient chaul-
moogra seeds. Hundreds of plants
are being reared at government ex-
perimental stations here and soon
Hawaii will have number of chaul-
moogra oil-producing plantations.
Molokai used to be called lonely
island" because the Iepers consigned
to it rarely ever returned. Today It's
called 'happy island" because since
the discovery that the Dean specific
meant permanent cure for the
dread disease, the sunshine of hope
has returned to the faces of the leper
inmates. And the whole institution
is full of eagerness and happiness.
