O knihe

Excerpt from The Practice of Charity: Individual, Associated and Organized

The writer may claim acquaintance with a very considerable amount of such material, and this ac quaintance with families is not solely theoretical or documentary. Many of them he has known per sonally. Conferences are held with applicants both at the o¿ice of the society and in their own homes. The necessity for aiding agents and visitors to reach practical conclusions on the more serious questions arising in their treatment of families, such as the initiation of proceedings on grounds of insanity, the commitment of children to institutions because of the destitution of parents, or the provision of a pension for aged persons, have given a 'familiarity with details which will often correct or modify con clusions based upon written records and statistics of a general nature. Frequent visits to other cities and conferences with those who are engaged in similar work in New York and elsewhere will per haps prevent the views expressed from re¿ecting merely local or exceptional conditions.
