Kives guaranteed cash lOftnVnlUM, Bx are quite simple. Her voice, particularly, ipleasing, low and round. I had a dreadful time discovering where -he lives. Yet it is one of the most attractive homes I have ever seen — back of the Wilshire Country Club. Her mother lives with her. arid she has two married sisters, much older than herself, who visit her frequently. Once in a while she spends an evening with Mabel Xormand, an old friendship that sur I vives from the early Sennett days. The third thing is the friendship that exists , between her and Charlie Chaplin, and the strangeness of her professional career, which is largely a result of that friendship. "D ACK in 1915, little Edna Purviance, just ■'-'out of a Los Angeles finishing school, met | Charlie Chaplin at a party where she had gone with one of her married sisters. They were terribly thrilled at meeting a real "movie actor." Charlie took one look at the lovely, young blonde and said: " Did you ever think of going into pictures? " Edna giggled. "I should say not," she said, with her nose in the air. It happened to be true that she had no desire to act. But she did want to see how a movie was made. So, when Mr. Chaplin asked her and her sister to come down to Xiles, California, next day and see them work, she went. Ten minutes after her arrival. Charlie had a make-up on her. And she's been his one and only leading woman ever since. She has never worked with anyone else, never been directed by anyone else. A circumstance that is without a parallel in pictures. Several years ago a big dramatic part was offered her. Later, one of the big producers made her a starring offer. She refused them both. Charlie found out about it, and he said to her: "That's right. You stick by me now while I need you, and some day I'll make a dramatic star of you myself." "A Woman of Paris" is the result of that promise. Years ago, when they first worked together, everyone expected them to marry. I don't remember whether an engagement was ever announced, but certainly they were very much in love. But in those days, Edna was full of life, full of desire to see life. They had a quarrel, Edna dashed off to Honolulu with some friends, and. when she came back, Charlie was married to Mildred Harris. Strangely enough, out of that youthful romance has grown a deep and wonderful friendship. Edna Purviance is Charlie Chaplin's oldest and truest friend. Eor eight years they have been friends, the kind of friends who rejoice in that inner feeling of mutual trust and dependence and affection. Other women have come and gone in his life, but Edna is the only one who has remained — the only lasting feminine influence in his career, the only woman to whom lie has always been consistently devoted and to whom he has turned in his moments of trial. She was born in Nevada, but she came to California when she was very young ami it has been her home ever since. "It isn't true." she saitl to me the other day. "that I'm not ambitious. But when I leave the studio — I leave pictures. I have to. Besides, in working with Charlie, there have been long spaces 1 el ween pictures, and 1 have had to build my own life outside. I believe Tin happier. And I believe I can give more to my work, now that my big chance has come." obligation. Edltlc JO*. DeRov & Sen. vile,;. ,i . Hull.. No ... Ka-'iim Uin.il. d W.,1.
