MM LOST HUSBAND-GAINED BABY'
: Wthmk of It, at 22 I'm Pioneer Mother of Race
vl: Problem," Declares Recent Bride as She
*m Weeps Over Her Little Girl
.; r ;..;. ; [Specie/ Dispatch to The Call]
CARSON CITY, Xcv« May SO. — From the broken threads of her lost
loves, Mrs. Gladys Emery Aold, only daughter of Archdeacon Emery
of the San Francisco diocese of the Episcopal church and wife of a
• Japanese houseboy. has woven a philosophic robe as strange as her own
\u25a0-'unique social position and as preplexing as her feminine moods. In it are
;' iifce somber colorings of tragedy, sorrow and tears; the warm tones of a
: : f tolerance infinite in its scope; the striking hues of stinging cynicism .and
: pithy sarcasm; hopelessness tinged with humor, logic and love. It is a
veritable pot pourri of a philosophy; but after she had expounded it, and
illustrated it with flashes of wit today, she rather spoiled the effect of her
intellectual reasonings by bursting into sobs and pouring out a flood of love
and tenderness on her baby girl.
For many hours she discussed the perplexing international question,
quietly, cajmly and in a manner of one whose knowledge Is from books and
little cisc besides. She examined with microscopic care the remnants of her
shattered household gods, obtaining from one piece a laugh, from another
a sociological deduction, just as it suited her mood and the whim of the
moment. Her ideals she investigated with mathematical precision. The gods
©? her girlish creation the reviewed without sentiment or display of emotion,
smiling at the clay feet, wondering at the lofty forehead. But even as she
spoke and laughed and jested it became evident that the whole was but a
desperate endeavor on the part of the girl's brilliant Intellectuality to fight
against the blank hopelessness of the future. Her mind refuses to be con
quered by the series of mistakes and follies of her youth. The vigor and
vitality and life, which is in her, forces her to battle against the deadening
influences of despair. The erie sof her sorely wounded heart she stifles with
ruthless reasonings, for. as she said:
>Great heaTPns, lam bat 22 years old! It is not the fashion of 22 to
. ;\u25a0:' '\u25a0J£q Mercy Asked
. Therefore she builds her structure of philosophy — the wonderful, wonder
fiji philosophies of 22. Only, in. this Instance there is no sign of priggish
