heroine, Janet Bumpus, embodes the
longings Of hundreds Of thousands Of
workers blindly seeking for the light.
She is n most pathetic figure. for she
is like some beautiful wild creature, born

Mr.. Churchill thus exhibits the tempta-

the fate which hangs over her"
But If the girls had been properly

Doctor McFabre remarked
Granted" said I; but the point that
Mr.. Churchill makes is that girls are not
properly reared, that the conditions OF
their life in homes where there is grind

the fundamental virtues. He goes even
further when he describes Janet as a
true modern in that she was blind to
the virtues Of duty and self.sacrlfice.
Therein lies the tragedy Of modern life.
