THE VALUE OF VOLUNTEER SERVICE
 IN THE REBUILDING OF FAMILY LIFE
Abstract Address By Johnson Secretary of the Associated Charities of Boston, Formerly of
 Bridgeport.

This is the day of the expert. Even in social work this holds true. We have schools for social workers or schools of philanthropy. in Boston, New York. Chicago, St. Louis, and Philadelphia. Colleges likewise place Increasing emphasis upon courses in Sociology and economies which serve as means of training for those planning to enter profess sional social work. Definite training for charitable work is considered prerequisite not only for men and women in charge of private charities, but also for officials in public depart rnents of charity.
 You seek, with such an insistance upon higher standards, is there still room for the volunteer in charitable work?
 Without considering all of the req sons why we need volunteers to help families, let us enumerate three:
 In our societies and public de- partments this winter, the paid work CT has often had to make provision for 20O> to 300 families, sometimes a much larger number. He has been swamped. If the peculiar needs of each family are to be met. if we are to give that sympathetic help adapt ed to the individual needs in which we believes the paid worker needs all the volunteer help that he can secure. We need more volunteers instead of less. In Boston we have an Alumni Social Service Bureau whose only pur- pose is to interest college graduates in the service of their fellows.
 2-The poor need all the help that can be organized in their behalf from churches and organizations already interested in those in poverty. In most of our cities we have societies of St. Vincent de Paul, Catholic men organized to help the poor in their parishes, which render invaluable as- sistance in making plans and caring for families in distress. Likewise, deaconesses and church workers from protestant churches may render tnval- uabIe assistance.
 8.-VoIunteers are needed in chari- table work because or the educational influences they will wie1d in the com munity. Twenty years ago Prof. Amos c. Warner sAid what holds as true today as it did then.
 When a person takes up the case of single person in distress and tries to be thorough in assisting that per- |

son, he finds that one thing leads to another, and that to something else; and finally, he finds that he is inter ested in everything, from the sewers to the public schools, and from park commissioners to divorce .Iaws-noth- ing is indifferent to him which is con nected with the welfare of the com munity in which he lives. He sees the absolute need of correcting abuses, not only for the sake of the poor, but for the sake of the community as a whole
 We have been through an unusual winter. There has been more pow erty than we have known for years. The sympathies of the community, l with unusual suffering at home as well as among those engaged in the European war, have been stirred as never before Is it not our duty to help translate sympathy into action; and to enlist an increasing number Of volunteer workers in the service of their fel1iws?
