of these girls seek because it didn't

of social glitter and easfifor the com-
parative hard ships of the screen
novice. Proving again' that one's meat
is another's poison.

Miss Pringle. who spears in Gold-

largest landowner in the world. and
the daughter of a wealthy San Fran-

her income from father and husband.

salary.

And now. if the Cinderella sister-

hood will come down to earth for a
moment. we'll let Aileen tell us how
perverse is the wish to be swimming
in bank notes and idleness. when
work and its delights are hard by.

“Most girls." says she. "are amaz‘ed
when I tell them I gave up luxury
for professional struggle. The aver-
age woman seems to be laboring un—
der the delusion that the elimination
of all toii. an unlimited checking ac—
count. an indulgent husband or father

squander constitutes happiness.
That's a dream of childish fancy. and
the overstress on material possess-
ions.

““‘hen I chucked it all to go

into pictures I found myself for the
first time learning the meaning 0:

economy. My former whims were

felt relieved without one. It was a

surmount them by my own effort.

“After doing five small parts in

George Arliss in "The Green Goddess.’

inspiration.

"I had to come to Ca'itornia for

ture work. I‘ have been truly happy
because “( 1k provoked anrtitmn and
ambition finds encouragement in

Miss I'ringie concluded bv saying
that. hid she remained in the Ja-
maican lap of luxury. she probably
would have vegetated into “a large
purple cabbage." “'hat a fate for
