Clifford doesn’t think so—he likes me if you don’t. Nelly was right, what she said about men—that they're all horrid, really. But I did think you were different,” ghe added, her volce breaking on a sob and then passion- ately: “Oh, why don’t you say some- thing?” “Anything 1 can say will only make you dislike me more,” Boyd said stiffy. “Let’s go home, shall we?” Her bewildered anger and pain burst into fresh flame. “Yes, go home. Get rid of me as quickly as you can,” she taunted him. “I suppose you think I'm in love with you.” She gave a misera- ble little laugh, “Well, and so I am in love with you,” she said defiantly. Nicholas turned slowly round and looked %t her; he was rather white and his eyes were unutterably sad. “It's good for you to be with young Deople. 1 am very glad your other friend is coming for the week-end, Nelly do you call her?” His lips moved as if he would have spoaen, but Georgie gave him no opportunity; she turned and fled away from him out of the wood and a She felt as if she were burning with shame. *T've put her off,” Georgie said quickly. “I didn't really want her; atleast .. . she’s all right of course, but if she was here I knew I couldn't 0, for a walk with you, and so I ‘wrote and put ber off.” Nicholas moved suddenly, rising Slowly to hic fect. _ “Phore's something else I have to to you, Georgie.” ” She looked up.at him, her “hens heavy with nameless trouble. ee about these walks.

FILM CAREER OF | EDWINA BOOTH IS NOW AT ITS END MOVIE STAR FACES DEATH AS RESULT OF AFRICAN PICTURE; VIRTUALLY ILL ALL TIME SINCE RETURN ter than average chance at movie fame and a-few thousand dollars may cost Edwina Booth her life. The blond heroine of the jungle- made picture, “Trader Horn,’ has been virtually ill all of the time since she returned three years ago. She has been confined to her bed for the last 16 months. Recently her condition became critical and her mother says her recovery is extremely doubtful. “Our doctors say the tropical sun burned up certain nerve cells in Edwina’s body,’ her mother, Mrs. James L, Woodruff, who is nursing her, explains. “They say these cells never can be regrown.” Condition Varies “Freqently Edwina seems to be improving, and our hopes are rais- ed, but then she fails rapidly again and we become almost despond-| ent. We try’so hard not to realize that there is little hope of’ her ever getting well.” ‘Although her body is wasting away, the young actress’ mind is alert and active much of the time. When she is able to be propped up in bed, she models in clay, and of her reads, writes Some modeling has a professional touch! although she never has taken les-| sons. She has written several-score of clever verses for a child’s book. which her younger sister has il- lustrated—Edwina, who is 23, the oldest of five children. Future Looked Bright “The opportunity to be in “Trader Horn’ seemed to Edwina les us the grandest thing in the world,” her mother says. “The {studio promised her that if she | made good in it she would be kept under contract and put in other pictures. “After she came back Edwina/ played in two serials for other} studios, and she had just started! a good part in another picture! when she collapsed on the set./ That was 16 months ago and me is} (My Asaoemted Press} j HOLLYWOOD, June 23.—An adventurous year in Africa, a bet- ~.| hasn't been near a studio since. “All of her money is gone mal ;[—she Was paid only $100 a week en the trip to Africa—and that} | knowledge adds to her discourage-/ ment.
