It would be pleasant to end on a happy note, with a conventional sugar-coated fade-out. ; Unfortunately, life sel dom woiks that way. The price they pay for stardom" has been, since the beginning, a favorite theme for the gaga girLi and boys In Hollywood who write for Lue "f an-maggies'- It is more diamatic to sob over a $3000-a-week beauty wholives in a Beverly Hills mansion, than to shed a tear over Mrs. Cauliflower, who has seven children and an invalid husband. . Drama- and Heartbreak . For some reason this story of the et urn J from Africa of Edwina Booth has been overlooked by the weeping willows. ' It has all the drama and heartbreak that they love and it doesnt need magnifying, magnify-ing, "Edwina. 1 Booth returned from Africa, broken in health, desper ately ill and in. need of nothing so much as. rest and-auiet. - For a year, she had oeen running the -gauntlet of disease and danger in the wildest coutry in the vorld. True, her nerve3 were strong and she had the quiet1 strength that holds imagination in leash. She stood for hours under the -Jrnrtling rays of a blast-furnace aun without a hat. Her blood was poisoned by innumerable insects. Her nerves, iron-strong in the beginning, be-ginning, were worn thin by the ever-preset menace of. the jungle, the strange, maniacal strength of .the country. Seasoned veterans have lost their reason in Africa. The British Brit-ish government never stations " a regiment, a consular offical, or a diplomatic attache very long on that continent.' .

Recovtringslowly,. she Was able to eppear at the premiere of "Trader "Trad-er Horn," and immediately sufferel another relapse. For Edwina, it wn.s nearly fatal. In the" meantime, she was the target for scores of people who wanted intei views. For weeks, she was the best motion picture "copy" Mnjlie industry. The publicity offtaf. at Metro-GoldwynMayer Metro-GoldwynMayer was able to protect pro-tect her from much of this, but efn so, the world constantly bedeviled be-deviled her until she was able to talk. . i The crowning disaster of thia ! whole htnicture developed in. the i form of a divorce suit filed by Mis. j Duncan Renaldo, atari, st the actor I who. had appealed in "Trader; Horn." At the same tinie, a $50,000 j suit for damages, gharging aliena- i tion of affections, named Edwin i ! Bcoth as "the other woman." j In the trial the ordeal of which I wag spared Edwina, it. was charged that she had stolen the love or Duncan Renaldo, had had Improper telations with him. Her parents kept the new? from her, retained, a. lawyer and fought the case th-ougb to its present stage. When she was stronger, shi net i d about it. A summary of the pros and cons of the divorce sv. lias no place in this story. it was the last straw. Edwina Booth today is a bitter, iifrillusicncd woman. .Stardonrr and the brilliant future that lies ahead nolds little interest or attraction for her. She is still veryyoun. and her life has been tragic Sometimes she muses oyer the words of the gypsy hag who called her "a child of destiny. ' The gypsy gyp-sy .predicted heart-break and an?-guish, an?-guish, adventure, sorrow. Those words have come true. Edwina Booth is a "child of destiny." des-tiny."
