WASHINGTON — President
Harding looked forward to 1iis first
vacation in nearly a year -Mon
day in leaving Washington with
Mrs. Harding and a party of
friends, to spend a month in FloT-
i<ia. Although no itoniary had
been made public, much of the va-
cation will be spent, it was under
stood, in a leisurely houseboat
cruise down the Halifax and In
dian rivers, with occasional stops
at Florida coast resorts where the
party will go ashore for golf.
For. Mrs. Harding, the trip
means more than a change of scene
and climate, for her departure
from the White House Monday to
board the special train marks the
first time, she has gone outside
the executive grounds since she
became ill last September. Mrs.
Harding was looking forward to
the benefit expected from the trip
toward restoring her health, which
has shown steady improvement for
several weeks.
