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. The
two have been intimate friends for
the last two years, but they had not
confided their secret to any acquaint
ances.' Only the bride's mother, Mrs.
Freeman A. Field,, was present at the
ceremony.
Dr. Tarry and his bride left for
Chicago, where they have been pre
ceded by his chauffeur and automo
bile, and from there will motor to
Virginia and then up the eastern coast
to New York. They will return to
Omaha September 1 and will be at
home at Fifty-first and Dodge streets
in Dundee, where Dr. Tarry has pur
chased a home. N
Dr. Tarry is a prominent member
of the Field and Commercial clubs
of this city. His bride is well known
for her ability as a solo dancer.

erty and income at the time the de
cree was granted.
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

tunic starts out to be built on the lints of a plaited jerkin of the

Fashion Notes
Long strings of colored beads add a
good ideal of trimming value to a
bodice finished in the new way, with-!
out a collar. The string ot beads
should be long enough to drop below
the V of the neck opening and not
cut across it.
Collar and cuff sets for. wear with
sport blouses or frocks of white linen
are of checked gingham overlaid with
sheer white organdy. A "gingham
collar" sounds a bit heavy and clumsv.
does it not? But these new bits of
neckwear are really very dainty. The
gingham is not hemmed around the
edge of the collar and neither is the
organdy.
Good looking suits for little bovs
are of white mohair, the jacket pleated
in groups below a straight yoke, and
having patch pockets over the pleats,
midway below yoke and belt. Instead
of a flat sailor collar or round Eton
the little jacket has a coat collar and
