 FLIRTING

CHICAGo.-Whne flirting in thea. ters and other public places of amuse ment should be tabooed, according to Rev S. B. Dexter, of Aurora, he has announced that it may properly take place in churches, where, he declares, Tt Is purgea of Its harmtulness." His decision grows out of crusade against Sunday night amusements,
 Church surroundings and associa- tiOns," he says, "are entirely ditteren from those who attend the perform. ances in public playhouses. Some. times the plays of our theaters are a trine risQue, and if the show be given Sunday the result is general forget fulness of that fact. Under such con, dltlons flirting is harmful, In churches, however, can see no harm In a little bit of flirting, if the young people come not to look at each other, but to learn the Scrip lures"
