Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Charity Visitor: A Handbook for Beginners The professional visitor or apprentice will have henceforth the help of an experienced guide, of a woman who combines tact, sym pathy, intelligence, unwearied devotion and a vision of a better social order where few or none will be compelled to be familiar with the bread by which men die. These directions have been tested by numerous social workers and they are clearly stated in logical order. Fortunately many volunteer visitors are coming to our help, and they would do well to ponder these weighty sugges tions and to read the publications recommended as a preparation for a task that seems easy only to the tyro. It is a pity to grope aimlessly where heartstrings are sensitive and to wound those one sincerely seeks to aid and to comfort. All good fellows may here find directions by one who knows. There are critics of case records who imagine they have said something when they mock at red tape. People who sneer at bookkeeping swell the ranks of bankrupts. Business men and physicians know well that accounts are indispensable. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Help: A Manual of Practical Charity The history of philanthropic effort during the nine teenth century presents some curious features, and one of the most striking is the rapid change which took place during its last thirty years. If we look over the litera ture of the earlier part of the century we shall find a well developed tradition of what charitable effort should be. Like many other ideals of the period, it was simple and well defined. It was largely religious in origin, and in its outward manifestation contented itself with allevia tion or cure, giving little thought to prevention. Miss Yonge's very human and charming heroines, for instance, help the poor because it is a religious duty to give to the weaker brethren, or, rather, to be perfectly fair, because they can best express their love for their Master by giving to these, His poor. The problem Of charitable relief takes a very simple form to their eyes. They live among people of their own race whom they have known all their days. They know every detail of their lives; they understand their habits of thought and their attitude toward the world. They give with a full knowledge of how far the character of the poor is an element in their. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The State and Charity At this point the narrative pauses, and, in Chapters VIII. And IX., an attempt is made to exhibit, so to speak, a section of the sphere of action covered by the charitable instincts of mankind. As a practical man, the English citizen must realise that in this country there exist, side by side, legal and voluntary agencies for relief, and he is called on to regulate this co-ordinate jurisdiction in the light of sound theory and experience. Apart from the statement of fact contained in these two chapters, it has been the object of the Author to set out rather than decide the issues of a controversy which branches out into almost every phase of human activity. Judgment cannot be passed by this genera tion on constructive experiments which it has itself devised: if the Author has succeeded in suggesting the points on which the verdict must turn, he has realised the limit of his ambition.

Download or read book American Charities written by Amos Griswold Warner and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Charities: A Study in Philanthropy and Economics On the appearance of Warner's "American Charities" fourteen years ago, its unique character was at once recognized. For that work is the first thoroughgoing scientific treatment of the most difficult and perhaps the most important of the ever widening group of sociological arts to which happily Professor Henderson has given the generic name of "social technology." It possesses an enduring, a vital quality which in the judgment of scholars has already won for it the rank of "classic in philanthropy." With remarkable clearness Dr. Warner perceived the new dynamic tendency which was destined soon to revolutionize economic and sociological thought. In the outset with trenchant phrase he exposes the sterility of the prevalent laissez faire dogma. "People are tired of the gospel of inaction," he exclaims, "and the teacher has been compelled to heed their demand for guidance in the doing of constructive work... Students must be trained in a more generous political economy than that of Senior and Miss Martineau," if they are to achieve success in organized philanthropy. Therefore the time is ripe for a new edition of the "American Charities." It is significant that in the statement of principles no essential change is required. The book deserves to be perpetuated because of its perennial scientific quality. This is the more remarkable considering that only two years ago, in Ward's epoch-making "Applied Sociology," appeared the first systematic discussion of the basic law which must govern all wise effort for social reform.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Glimpses of the Brotherhood of Charity In this respect, and in accord with the mission of the founder of Christianity, the work of the Brothers, to lift up the lowly, ought to inspire others with a like ambition. They serve the Master by saving His chosen ones, - the poor. Such service is that by which He commissioned His church to rule mankind. It was the sway gained by love of men. It triumphed, for it was divine. When failure succeeded, it was because human selfishness usurped the throne of divine love. Return ing to the first supreme order of perfect law, society will find its regeneration; the Church will regain its lost supremacy; the human race will be the church, as its divine founder intended at its establishment.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution of Charities and Charitable Institutions Rational selection at the first, and at its poorest, is only a shade better than instinctive selection. Indeed, in cases of definite blundering it may have worse results than instino tive selection. Indeed, it is hard to tell in any given case how far we should allow our reason to dominate our im pulses. But it is manifest that rational selection, at its best, and in its possibilities, is the superior of the other two forms, and those races will eventually survive which practice it most constantly and most wisely.
