his philanthropic work on a pedestal
with his literary achievements. In its
public aspects, at least in England, the
character of Dickens presented two
faces. He was. Of course. primarily
and for the less thinking portion Of
his readers. a story teller who imagin-
ed wonderful things and embodied
them In lifelike characters. Others
knew him al a 'reformer and lover Of
mankind. working with fiction as an
effective tool. presenting pictures of
abuses which cried aloud for redress.
England blushed and felt itself con-
-victed Of ~inhumanity when tho pen Of

fault. and 1t turned with contrition to
the remedy Of the abuses. It was thus
that Dickens gained for himself the
name of ."the greatest reformer of his
time" bestowed on him by some Of his
English lovers.
America has forgotten and forgiven
