TW | ‘ANOTHER SERVICE MAN ADVISES MORE MERCY 'AND LESS LAW IN CASE OF EMILY KNOWLES By CYNTHIA GREY , The letters sent to Cynthia Grey on the Spiker- Knowles case are becoming larger in number daily, which proves that almost everyone has some sort of ver- dict on the case. ready sent it in, do s0 now. What is yours? If you have not al- We would like to print it. Ours is a government of the people; consequently, the opinion of the public is always valuable, as well as inter- esting. A number of letters follow: Dear Miss Grey: Your request for letters from the public regarding Mrs. Spiker’s attitude in the unusual case of her husband and Miss Knowles is a good one. I am pleased to comment. on this as I think Mrs. Spiker’s sacrifice should not go by unnoticed. A war romance, an unfaithful husband, a foolish girl and a new-born babe, last, but the greatest, a super-wife in- volved. 1 am answering the letter written by the “American Wife,” which displays envy, narrowness and lacks food for bet- terment. There is a moral issue involved, true, but it is no greater than justice and to RIGHT THE MOTHER OF AN ILLE- GITIMATE CHILD. | believe it is principally for the wel-| fare of this little ‘babe that Mrs, Spiker has taken this action. | We care not about this woman's extraction, and that “conventian- ality frowns upon unwed mothers in America,” but do not forget that the Supreme Being ts greater than the constitution of any country, and it was His way, and Fils way mw supreme. Any person who speaks the Eng- Msh language and knows or can learn the requirement of an Amert- can citizen should be admitted to this country “Mrs. Spiker is a fine, broad minded woman; but should her the ory be taken as an example?’ Dear “American Wife,” you or no other woran is compelled, or asked, to take this stand; and for the same reason I aay Miss Knowles should be admitted to this country. I ad mire people who have the courage of thelr convictions; who wish to correct their mistakes as they see best, when they realize they have made them. You, or all of your friends who are wives could not solve the eternal triangle, and wives who take the standpoint that you have should not mention the words “eternal tri- angle,” as you are talking merely from a worldly standpoint. Any woman, under any cireum- stances, should be willing to play to the future benefit of motherhood in- stead of playing to their petty ideas. “I know if my husband were Perley Spiker, I could never forgive him." Again you exercise Amert- canism by using your own judgment, which all Americans have; but you would deny Misa Knowles the right you hold for yourself, which is unlike most Americans. I say Miss Knowles should be permitted to live in any country she sees fit, and the man who is the father of her child should be brought to judgment for his sin in the eyes of the world. But why should we seek to work greater hardship on | | Dear Miss Grey: I wish to take with the “American Wife” who wrote to you about the case of Fimily Knowles, who came country with her infant son to find & greater freedom in which to rear her child. The “American Wife" THINKS she is very breadminded. I know she does from the way she wrote. But to my way of thinking she is/ very narrow. Were I Emily Knowles, the only thing under the broad sun that would keep me from free America of my own accord would be Perley Spiker’s wife, Since Mra, Spiker has forgiven to the extent that she can welcome the mother of her own husband's child with open armas, there the law should end and brotherly love begin. I am glad I have lived long enough to know that there is a real flesh and blood woman of the type of Mrs. Spiker. AN OLD BACHELOR, eee Dear Cynthia Grey: Snould Emily Knowles and her son, who is the child of Perley Spiker, be permitted to remain in this country?

Ye women who are without stn, let your light shine bright women will see it and follow. All women should envy Mrs. Spiker because her crown will shine so brightly that only happiness could prevail wherever she may go.
