I The ( imaha Sunday Bee ! w . ./ ___^-. . .* PART THREE OMAHA, SUNDAY MORNING, APRIL 5, 1925. __>__ . /-—> Eashion Show on Its Own Has She Done It to You? Flask Follows the Swallow? , Buy GABBY. 'HT like tlio side show at tlie eli'cus, there was a counter at traction running wide open, under its own steam before and dur ing the fashion promenade at the luncheon given by the Rotary club for its visiting Anns Thursday at the Athletic club dining room. "Iron bars no prison make." the poet tells us, and Gabby rises to re mark that they are also unreliable as a protection from prying peepers, so the balcony spectators w ho had secured front row seats what with their short skirts were themselves the cynosure of all eyes. One locally famous matron had the misfortune to present a double per sonality. That of a bored gentlewo man from the waist up. Below a Allstlnguett of the first water. "I’ll put her up against Ann Pennington any lime.’’ murmured a graft ful ob server, and Gabby forgave the or chestra a few false notes, for the counter show was ns much a distrac tion as an attraction. One thoughtful group on the bal ’ cony had the forethought to drape a scarf over the balcony rail. .That it was a printed chiffon made the deed none the less praiseworthy. ’ "BY Iris heard of ihe cleverest :ide in town. One who be ucccs in womens rights. Not other women’s. 'Deed no. Just hers. She has solved the "caller” prob lem. • livery bride before her has tried hut it has remained for her to suc ceed. She lias taken residence in a palatial home, Jmt'to give a personal touch she answers tile door in per son. beating the maid to it just a minute or so. When the caller drifts in she finds her hostess charmingly confused, and also charmingly dressed, with hat. cent and gloves on. To (lie favored few who are guar anteed to he amusing, she explains prettily lhat she has just come in land lias liardly had lime to lay aside her wraps. She is delighted to set them ete., etc., etc. Just as prettily and twice as em phatically she tells the others "Just going nut: So sorry. But my engage ment is pressing.. Sweet of you to come. Do drop in again.” Have you / been one of these latter? wonders J Gabby. I ^ Jt^ULLOIV tlie swallow hick I H home” was the motto of an I Omaha flask lost by its I owner in Paris two months ago Old P Dog Tray hisself couldn't have been I more faithful than this silver liar- I binger of spring a homing. The owner recalled rather clearly. I considering he was in 1’aris when he I lost it, that the flask had just been refilled before the disaster occurred, and all sorts of rosy dreams played through his memory as word came that it was being forwarded. Alas, there is something in this old saw about counting your chick ens before they are hatched. It's the same about swallows it seems. Some one. else who loved birdies, counted the swallows in the customs office, and all of them had flown on the flask's arrival last week. NONE the less thrilling than tlie rise of a Mack .Senneit beauty's rise to stardom in the seryus drama, is the progress of Richard Mallory, first as a chorus man with the Junior League revue, then as a dread Apache in ft dance with Mrs. Douglas Peters in last year's league performance, and this year to the part of the minister in the “Enchant ed Cottage," which the Community Players will present April 13 and 14 at Mary Cooper's studio. Mr. Mallory Is rated one of the hits of the piece. Famous for his sense of humor he has given the putt the skillful Interpretation it deserves Parties for the show are being ar ranged by his friends. oAij&rwily ^y(elie RINEHA 5T - AAA R JT1 O E N Creighton Upper Classes ' Plan for Elaborate Prom _$ Creighton university's annual jun ior senior prom, In late years the most popular of the school’s Various nodal events, will he held In the uni • versify gymnasium Friday evening.
