st. Paul Guild of Catholic Women
organized in 1906 1t had its begin
nings in small group of women who
organized to sew for the poor. From
these few workers, with but single
activity, the guild has expanded un-
til it now has a membership of 582,
with eight departments and six
standing committees.
To the original needle work de-
partment, was first added a relief
department known as St. Elizabeth's
Department. This is the center of
interest of the present Guild. To
the chairman of the Relief Depart
ment come all appeals for help of
the varied nature that any charitable
organization receives. The Relief
Department has parish chairmen in
every parish of the city, and they in
turn have their corps of visitors, so
that any distress is quickly reached.
by some one in the immediate vicin-
The Irish standard., 1914-05-30

Poverty is a grewsome fact, yet the
proportion of those in need and dis
tress as compared with those who
enjoy some considerable degree of
prosperity is comparatively small.
The work done and the good accom-
plished by the Guild of Catholic
women of st. Paul, covering as it
does such a wide range of activity
makes this conclusion possible.
There are not too many poor in the
world, but in many or most instances
there are too few people willing to
volunteer time, thought, service or
money to assist, not so much in tenn
porary comfort for the unfortunate,
but in giving that more permanent
relief in assisting the distressed ones
to help themselves.
Too often poverty and dependence
is taken to be matter of course and
the term ignorance, often used
as being synonymous with poverty, is
capable of two meanings-Ignoranc
of the poor and the causes of their
poverty and distress are as lament
able as poverty itself. The scientific
manner in which the Guild has striv-
en- to cover the field of charity makes
it apparent that a broader view of
charity is taken than the one which
views charity as consisting in feed
ing the hungry and clothing the
naked. Charity as organized on this
broader basis prevents the formation
of those conditions which result in
degradation and destruction among
the poor. Viewed in this light the
organizations of so many depart
ments justify themselves as being re-
lated to the broad and generous
principle with which charity should
be viewed. 1t is fatal to the work of
charity or the work of general So
cial uplift to suppose that all who
came within the scope Of the work
Of the Guild are considered as be-
longing to one great family toward
whom patronizing attitude is cult
waited. The guild of Catholic women
has no salared workers or no en-
downment. The funds are raised
through dues and through various
means undertaken by the members
Social work is looked upon as SER
vice and that service is in conformity
with spiritual rather than mater
tal ideal. It's motives are unselfish
it's pursuing refining. Those whose
solicitude has been the anxiety of
the Guild so often and so frequently
reflect the unselfish influence exerted
in their behalf give hope that as
years go by the work of the Guild of
Catholic women in ST. Paul will
make widespread the understanding

The spirit in which the report of
the Guild is read will answer some
questions that may naturally arise
in the mind of any one who has
given serious consideration to the
problem of ameliorating the condi-
ton of those who are either temper
arily or permanently prevented by
one cause or another from admins
tering to their own wants or taking
steps to improve their condition.

ity. Outside of material relief which
is always given where needed, as
generously as is possible, efforts are
continually made to re-establish a
family on self-supporting basis,
and the constructive work done by
many of the visitors often has a more
permanent value than the financial
aid rendered.
The third line of work assured BIZ
the Guild was in connection with the
Juvenile Court. For the past five
years committee from the Guild
has been in attendance at every SEES
sion of the court on the invitation of
judge Orr. assisting the court as
far as possible in the many prob
lens of delinquency and dependency
before the court.
The Employment Bureau and the
Garment Committee supplement the
work of the other departments.
Through these departments, girls
who are strangers in the city are
cared for and directed either when
passing through the city or are as
sisted in seeking employment under
circumstances that will not hazard
their faith or their morals.
The Guild Hall has been establish
ed and maintained for two years.
The purpose being to conduct
home for working girls. The hall
has accommodated on an average
twenty-six girls month since it's
establishment at rates ranging from
$3.50 to $500 per week for board
and room.
The Department of Arts and let
tiers is distinguished from the work
of the other departments in that it
was not organized for philanthropic
work but for the promotion of the
study of church history. In this the
department has been successful in
arousing very general and sincere
interest as asserted by the papers
and discussions contributed to the
programs during the two years of it's
organization.
The work of the Hospital Commit
tee as it's name indicates consists in
visiting the various hospitals of the
city and ministering to the comfort
and ease of those whose condition
warrant the need of encouragement
through friendly visits and as the
case may be looking after those who
may be distressed or in want by the
absence of the sick members of the
family.
The Civic Department of the
Guild has in the main been confined
to the establishment of the Travel
er's Aid Department and the employ
ment of matron to represent the
Guild at the Union Depot.
A perusal of the report of work
done by the guild for the year ending
April 1, 1914 will give some idea of
the extent and activity of the organ
