THE BEE: OMAHA. FRIDAY, JULY 13, 1917. Rotarians in Frolic. Dr. and Mm. Frank M. Conlin came in for a good share of attention at the Rotary club outing at Seymour Lake club Wednesday night. This frolic was the first gathering of the club which they had attended since their marriage in April. The dub members, not satisfied with having sent congratulations to them upon , their wedding day, decided to take public notice of their marriage. Ac cordingly tha' master, of ceremonies asked Dr. and Mrs. Conlin to step before the company. When they complied, he presented them with a mock wedding cake, in reality a large bun in which matches had been lighted to take the place of candles. President John Bekins of Seymour Lake club also received a cake, but his was the genuine article. The women of the Rotary club, who had been mvited to the outing as Mr. Bekins' particular guests, wanting to show Heir appreciation in some way, had an enormous cake baked and pre sented it to him with their thanks for the gjod time which he had given them- The presentation speech was made by Mrs. E. C. Henry, who for the last three years has been a regu lar attendant at Rotary club func tions. Ninety-five women attended the party and took an active part in all its features. On the reception com "mittee were Mesdames John Bekins, Henry Forster, Sam Mathson. D. A. Johnson and James Allan. The dub house had been converted into a perfect, bower of flowers and .ireens On the porches and bal conica, in the hallway and through out thi rooms potted flowers and palms rad been arranged. Among these flowers and greens the national colors nd the Rotary flag were dis played, so that a patriotic note was not lad ing. The ball room had spe cially elab.rate decorations of greens. A ceiling canopy had been fashioned of green leaves in the center of the room and each corner had its decora tions of greens. When the golf gamer and the steak dinner were over the company as sembled in the ball room to award prize;. Then the presiding officer di vided the guests into three groups, assigned to each group one part of a sneere, and finally at a given signal all produced one gigantic sneeze as f beginning of the fun. Dancing fol lowed the award of prizes, and in the newer steps the Rfltarians mingled a few old-fashioned rye waltzes and cir cle t"o steps, Tarry-Field Wedding. Among other surprises of the week is the announcement of the marriage of Miss Alpha Fay Field to Dr. Ed ward R. Tarry, which took place in Fremont Tuesday afternoon.

A Chat with Flirts By BEATRICE FAIRFAX. TLere are two kinds of flirting. There is the exaggerated selfish de sire for power which turns a coquette into a man-hunter or a Chesterfield into a Don Juan. And there is the longing for romance and adventure which lures and entices boys and girls and men and women, too, into making, chance acquaintances. To each its meed of scorn. Coquetry is only a manifestation of a harmless desire to be liked a little longing to charm. It is the scent to the rose, the sheen to the wings of a hawk. We all like it. We all en joy its lure. But overemphasize it let it grow to an unthinking desire for Conquest or a deliberate longing for power and it becomes wanton and cruel. Years ago a young high school graduate shot and killed one of his teachers. She was a beautiful young woman, seven or eight years older than the boy who became her slayer and the his own. But of the two it was she who was the real murderer. She was rather lonely in the little town to which she was assigned after her graduation from college. She found most of its people bores "rubes" she called them. But in her classes there were two very attrac tive, boys, good looking, full of the magnetism of their young strength and eagerly responsive to emotion. Estelle Sabin no, that isn't her name, and it won't pay you to look this case up in court annals, for it was kept from court Estelle Sabin was a flirt, a selfish, determined, piti less flirt.
