ever is in their power to give, they give as nature
does, unreservedly. But the Hoxtons, Calways
and Bertleys have turned the world into a dismal
prison and mankind into monotonous, gray, dull
shadows.
The professors, judges, and preachers cannot
meet the situation. Neither can Wellwyn, to be
sure. And yet his very understanding of the dif

with the inevitable reaction of conditions upon it,
bring the Wellwyns much closer to the solution
of our evils than all the Hoxtons, Calways and
Bertleys put together. This deep conception of
social factors is in itself perhaps the most signifi
cant lesson taught in
"
The Pigeon."
