‘ W' v SHOCKED m ‘LOVE PACT’ W IN CALIFORNIA ►Some Smile, of Course, Over Escapade of Musician and Los Angeles Girl. BERKELEY, Cal., June 10.—Conven tional Berkeley, Athens s>t the West, doe* not know whether t 6 be shocked or merely amused at the disclosure of one of the most remarkable “love pacts'* on record. Moat are inclined to apply the old ad age that “all's well thar ends well." and Consider the “marriage” of Miss Lyllan Stowell McCarthy, I.os Angeles society bud, to Arnold Edward Roth, professional musician, 6an& ceremony, a closed inci dent, now that a certificate of marraige reposes in their love bower—a quaint Berkeley bungalow. Despite the fact that the Roths have satisfied convention, who appeared on the scene in the form of Miss McCarthy s Irate father, E. Avery McCarthy, mil lionaire Los Angeles broker, neither the bride nor groom is a convert to matrl- Mv ny via the marriage altar. “We loved ea-.-li other; that was all that was necess-iry,” declared the young bridegroom, a composer and a violinist. “Why go through a s llv ceremony that meant nothing to us? “Immoral? “Why, there can't be anything more Immoral than the present state of mat rimony. “We started out in our own way here. “W# are happy. “We felt we were mates —not the kind of mates united in many of the marriages of today, but true lovers —congenial, trusting and happy. "But I.ylian's folks made life miser able for her. "They declared that I was degrading her morals—lhe*e meddlesome folks who were too lazy to think for themselves. “They marred our happiness with their constant interference. •*I could npt bear to 6ee the girl 1 loved suffer any longer. FINALLY CONSENT TO “SILLY CEREMONY." “If a silly service would make them all feel better they could have It If only they would let ns love in peace. “And bo we were married, not be cause we wanted the ceremony, but be cause it would rid us of the annoyance of having these people around. “We still have our ideals of a true marriage, but we don't force them on people. “If there Is true love that Is all that is necessary for happiness In any asso ciation. i “That i* all the tie that Is needed for people to live together. •Tea. this Is what they call Tree lore.’ 1 suppose. “But what are we coming to in this country? “Easy divorces are nothing more nor less than concessions to these Ideas. “The easier divorce is made the nearer we will come to having freedom In our personal relations. “If today or tomorrow I should meet another woman whom I was sure I loved I would tell Lylian and I would feel free to leave her immediately and go to my mate,” declared Roth. ■ “And Lylian knows she has the same privilege. “I would not seek to hold her one in stant after I knew her heart was else where.” “That Is right,” assented the bride. “We are both free to do 03 we please and we know it.” Concerning children of “love pacts" Hoth and his wife have equally definite ideas. “LET STATE TAKE CARE OF CHILDREN.” _ “Let the state take care of them,” is the way the husband tosses away the problem of providing for the off spring of couples who no longer feel the ties of love binding them and are eager for new associations. “It Is better for the state to provide for children than to have them bred In an atmosphere of hate,” said Roth. “It Is ridiculous to think that children should keep mlsmhted couples together. “Better let the child go with one par ent than have It become contaminated with the hatred which 111-matched cou ples must feel for each other. “Children of today are mlsedueatcd, anyhow. “The child U usually used by parents medium upon which to try all the failed in their lives. “Aa a consequence children are bound by the whims or follies of parents. “They can have no soul of their own. “It Is to the interests of tbe state that children are born. “Let It provide for them.” Not all of Mrs. Roth's relatives frowned upon her unique defiance of con vention. “My mother had no objection to the ideas which the rest of my family de clared Immoral,’” declared the bride. “She sent us her blessing.” After a divorce from E. Avory McCar thy the girl's mother became Mrs. J. J. Moore and later married Maj. L. W. Colfeton after Moore had been fatally wounded by a chauffeur following close- PAINS NEARLY BOUBLED ME UP Nothing Helped Me Until I Took Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.
