Is me progres it Has made In solving hu man problems bejond those which may be met by material relief. This con stitutes one of the best promises for a better future. "We believe that the present crisis In the nffalrs of the Society for Organizing Charity constitutes a challenge to us, and to all who are Interested In the Im provement of social conditions, to every man and woman able to give money or service, nightly considered, It presents a great opportunity to us, and especially to those who heretofore hae Ignored their share of responsibility, so to Im prove and broaden the work that it will be commensurate with the needs of the community.
