Ay KATftftTN SOMAn An Oklahoitia youlh dies nfter 16-dfly hunger strike and the Girl Next Door says she thinks he is a good example of carrying things too far.

Roberta Semple sued for $150,000 slander compensation and got 82,000. Which reminds me that no one is ever awarded the sum for which they sue. And that just goes to show that ail of us over-estimate the value of our reputations and injured Perhaps juries feel that If worth such startling sums, we wouldn't find It necessary to be In court defending, them. And so it goes. Halleujah! Elaine Barrie has divorced John Barrymore, the so- called great lover, and maybe we'll all.

get a rest from those two for awhile. At least, until one the other takes another fling at-matrimony. The way these actors and actresses wed so promiscuousiy makes me wonder how anyone can condemn girls who indulge in free love; The only difference between them and the average Hollywoodite is they don't waste time taking vows they intend to break. I read that Queen Mary will be the first Queen Mother in history to see her son crowned King. Think of the happiness it will bring her.

But think too, of the note of sadness which will creep into her heart when she thinks of the son who would be receiving the crown, had not narrowness driven him from his native country. How women despise girl report- el's. Reporters of any sex are pretty awful to folks at times, but you women have a special grudge against a girl who is trying to pick up facts about this or if car accident has just occurred and names must be gotten, injuries described, etc. The other day there was a collision of two cars. I was assigned to the unpleasant task of talking to the mother of a badly injured baby.

There were several women at the hospital who couldn't help letting me see just how crude they thought me. I en.loyed the task no more than did they, but a job's a job, so there you are. And the peculair part about it all is these two women, who glared at me as If I were something akin to a rattlesnake and answered my questions in such a manner that I couldn't help knowing I was as welcome as an ant at a same women will be gracious and lovely to me when they meet me on the street. There's nothing personal in the antagonism, of course. It's just that they can't help feeling disgusted at the sight of a girl making her way among bleeding bodies and moaning victims (as die rase sometimes Is) nnd not bursting into tears.

But bursting into tears is the easiest thing to do. The other takes little nerve, so it's hard for us lo feel the shame which some think we should, Hollywood Flashes HOLLYWOOD April 26 -Friends for four years, engaged onr doy, James Ellison and Gertrude Durkln of the firms are honeymooning after a Sunday wed- ding'flight to Yuma.
