Excerpt from The Industrial Training of the Boy There is in progress in America today a slow-going, subtile movement which bids fair to revolutionize the entire social order. By this I mean the tendency toward rendering common industry cultural and spiritualizing. It is the watchword Of this volume that common work can be so related to the industrial worker everywhere that he may not only find exceeding great joy in his daily employment, but that he may continue to develop his personality in such ways as to make peace, content ment, and spiritual poise predominating elements of his character.

Excerpt from Industrial Training: With Special Reference to the Conditions Prevailing in London This book has gradually grown to its present scope out of an enquiry into which I originally entered as Shaw Student of the London School of Economics. A previous investigation into the problems of unemployment in the London Building Trades had impressed upon me the great importance of the question of training, and led me to start to examine it in relation to this industry. It soon became obvious, however, that the investigation required to cover a far wider field, and, as its subject-matter broadened, its title - mercifully - narrowed, till what began as Modern Methods of Industrial Training in the London Building Trades took final shape as Industrial Training. I have attempted to describe in my opening chapter the actual methods of enquiry which I adopted; but there is one point that requires to be emphasized here. This is that the book is mainly a description of the methods and conditions prevailing in London. I have tried, indeed, to compare and contrast them with those of other cities; but in the main it is an investigation of London, or rather of what is known nowadays as Greater London.

Excerpt from Industrial Colonies and Village Settlements for the Consumptive Symonds, and we together examined the patients, sampled the climate and other conditions, and argued with Unger and Ruedi. Then for the second time came Hope; more solid Hope. Given a fairly early case, and three years, and recovery was in the offing. And so we went on cheerfully with Davos. But Davos was not for every one; nor was every case an early 'one. Then came the discovery that lower altitudes would do if certain conditions were obtained; and so arose the great sanatorium movement. But slowly we found that patients could not spend their lives in sanatoriums; and one day on making my way up to one of them in England, I met on the way patient after patient, slouching along, bored to death with themselves and with each other; and even worse in morale than in body. Better discipline and better notions of thera peutics mended some of that; still I could not forget those listless saunterers, and it became evident to some of us, however unwillingly, that Hope was drooping again. The sanatorium was doing a great educative work no doubt; but at the end of its four or six months - what then? To send the patient away with recommendations about light jobs, and a regime, was almost a mockery or quite. What about the wage, and the family to be supported? The next lesson was brought home to me by a visit with other commissioners to certain cities, concerning some such problems. Before me now I see a gaunt hollow-eyed man, coughing, and leaning against the wall as he tried to talk to us, saying that his mates when he came out of the sanatorium - good fellows as they were - had bought him a milk that he might creep round, and earn a bit. The brave wife, shawl on head and mill apron on, had just come from the factory, and apologised for the dirty house - as well she might. The poor thing was working all day at the factory to keep the wolf from the door. All being dragged down together into the pit! What is the value of a good house, or a clean house, if no wages! What is there for the children? And what is to stop the infection! Who then would have the imagination, the initiative, the business capacity, to lift this burden, like lifting a world?

Excerpt from The Training of a Working Boy Put the something which is ours into close association with the individuality of every other upon whom we desire to exercise influence. Another point which must be borne in mind is that we must work upon the whole of a lad's nature. The spiritual work will be all the more effective if our efforts for the body and for the mind are just as careful as those we use for the moral character. Again we must remember that if we are going to bring the best out of anybody we must believe that the best is there. The success of any social worker, and particularlya social worker with the young, is only then assured when he is conscious of the good that is in the one for whom he is labouring. All through this book may be noticed the unfailing appreciation of the good in the human boy. The book makes no pretence at fine writing, but I venture to say that no one will be able to read it without being conscious that the writer knows his subject, and that his suggestions have the special value which comes.
