Excerpt from How to Help the Poor
In these meetings, they will reap advantage from the experience and knowledge of others who are endeavoring, like themselves, to lighten the burden of the unfortunate. Especially, we believe that such meetings will awaken a wider interest in the hearts of well-to-do people, - an interest strong enough to increase the number of visitors to the homes of the poor.
Every page of this book is a prayer for more helpers, and aims to show that such labor is neither too difficult for us, nor one from which any household can feel itself altogether exempted.

I. VHY ORGANIZATION BEGAN. " GIVE to him that asketh" is one of the most d ireet commands in the Christian Seri pture; doubtless, in some fonn, the same command n13Y be found in every scripture since man began his race with man. The stOV growth of moral ei viliza tion is only no,v beginning to unfold the true signifi ... cance of this law'J which is found to stand side by side vith other laws belonging to it and explaining it. These bring us to consider the Exam pIe from whom we receive our doctrine.
